Marty Ehrlich Rites Quartet: Things Have Got To Change
by AAJ Italy Staff
Things Have Got to Change del quartetto del sassofonista Marty Ehrlich è il secondo disco nel giro di pochi mesi, dopo il fantastico Historicity di Vijay Iyer, a contemplare nella propria scaletta un capolavoro negletto del jazz contemporaneo come “Dogon A.D." di Julius Hemphill. In questo caso la circostanza non dovrebbe sorprendere più di tanto, dal ...
Carlos Zingaro: Spectrum
by Stuart Broomer
A group made up entirely of strings might initially suggest chamber music, but this all-European trio produces music that crosses many boundaries, not so much to create music that's eclectic but to define its own terrain. Portuguese violinist Carlos Zingaro is a well-known exponent of free improvisation while the bassist Wilbert De Joode has served as ...
Herculaneum: Herculaneum III
by AAJ Italy Staff
Approdano alla Clean Feed gli Herculaneum, giovane gruppo di Chicago guidato dal batterista Dylan Ryan, arrivato al terzo disco in cinque anni. Ancora una volta il jazz sfornato dall'etichetta portoghese dice una parola diversa e gli Herculaneum lo fanno con una proliferazione di anticorpi nei confronti del già sentito. E' come se alcune piccole porzioni stilistiche ...
Christian Lillinger's Grund: First Reason
by AAJ Italy Staff
Il giovane batterista tedesco Christian Lillinger si presenta in gran spolvero per questo suo debutto come leader. Rafforza la sezione ritmica con il doppio basso acustico affidato ai bravi Jonas Westergaard e Robert Landfermann, mette nel front-end i saxofoni e i clarinetti di Tobias Delius e Wanja Slavin e aggiunge in tre brani il pianoforte impertinente ...
Clean Feed Records: Eat the Plate
by Mark Corroto
Clean Feed records, founded in 2001, has been the most prolific and adventurous label for jazz this new century. Based in Lisbon, Portugal their offerings have included many of jazz's old guard including reed players Evan Parker, Paul Dunmall, Charles Gayle, Vinny Golia and Anthony Braxton and trumpeters Dennis Gonzalez and Herb Robertson, along with current ...
Marty Ehrlich: Things Have Got To Change
by Stuart Broomer
The clarity that's so immediately apparent in Marty Ehrlich's alto sound permeates his work, so that there's a quality at once naked and luminous in the music heard here. The quartet with trumpeter James Zollar, cellist Erik Friedlander and drummer Pheeroan akLaff and the concept harkens back to the early Ornette Coleman Quartet, each member committed ...
Marty Ehrlich Rites Quartet: Things Have Got To Change
by Troy Collins
One of the seminal artists of the New York Loft jazz scene, composer and multi-instrumentalist Julius Hemphill (1938-1995) left a diverse legacy that lives on through the tireless efforts of saxophonist Tim Berne and multi-instrumentalist Marty Ehrlich. Hemphill's earthy forays with cellist Abdul Wadud in the early seventies broke new stylistic ground, unapologetically drawing inspiration from ...
Steve Adams: Surface Tension
by AAJ Italy Staff
La lunga permanenza in un gruppo di grande spessore come il Rova Saxophone Quartet ha certamente impedito a Steve Adams di svolgere una attività come leader che, alla luce dei risultati conseguiti con questo ottimo Surface Tension, avrebbe potuto certamente produrre numerose e preziose testimonianze che auspichiamo possano comunque arrivare in futuro. Per l'occasione Adams chiama ...
Harris Eisenstadt: Canada Day
by Clifford Allen
Drummer and composer Harris Eisenstadt has, at age 33, a rather lengthy discography and one that's incredibly diverse for a drummer who could have stuck to cutting teeth as an able sideman in contemporary improvisation. As a leader, his story is even more expansive, running the gamut from Senegalese Mbalax to free-bop. Canada Day is a ...
Harris Eisenstadt: Canada Day
by Troy Collins
A consummate example of the traveling musician, Canadian-born composer/percussionist Harris Eisenstadt's journeys have taken him from a long-term residency on the West Coast (with frequent trips to Chicago) to multiple trips abroad to study drumming in West Africa before relocating to New York. The majority of Eisenstadt's releases have been documents of singular projects; ad-hoc ensembles ...
