WHO Trio: Less Is More

Read "Less Is More" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

The piano jazz trio is by now a familiar form--maybe too familiar. Many are already attuned to the standards-style trio (which may also cover modern pop tunes), and the free jazz trio (which is neither tethered to melody nor anchored in jazz sensibilities. But expectations need to be set aside when WHO Trio plays. The descriptive ...

Harris Eisenstadt: Guewel

Read "Guewel" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

Un po' di Art Ensemble of Chicago per l'africanità recuperata e fatta esplodere attraverso il free, un poco di World Saxophone Quartet per la sapienza nella armonizzazione dei fiati, un pizzico di Brotherhood of Breath per l'abilità nel dar risalto alla gioiosità melodica dei brani. Ma riassumere Guewel in questo modo sarebbe riduttivo e ingiusto nei ...

Denman Maroney: Udentity

Read "Udentity" reviewed by Troy Collins

by Troy Collins

Denman Maroney, the sole practitioner of “hyperpiano," has a singular technique that is a natural extension of the pioneering efforts of such visionary composers as John Cage, Henry Cowell and George Crumb. Expanding on the well-established practice of augmenting the interior strings of the piano with found objects, Maroney bows, plucks and scrapes the strings with ...

Trio Viriditas: Live at Vision Festival VI

Read "Live at Vision Festival VI" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

Il Trio Viriditas si era da poco costituito quando nel giugno 2001 partecipò al Vision Festival, dimostrando di possedere coesione e una decisa fisionomia. Purtroppo il gruppo ebbe vita breve per la prematura scomparsa di Wilber Morris avvenuta circa un anno dopo. Salvo alcune cesure sfumate, decise evidentemente in fase di montaggio, la live performance presenta ...

Tetterapadequ: And the Missing R

Read "And the Missing R" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

Questo disco d'esordio della band italo-portoghese si distingue a partire dal fatto di essere pubblicato da una casa discografica che si è meritata in breve tempo fama e rispetto in Europa quanto negli Stati Uniti. I quattro si sono conosciuti durante lo studio al conservatorio de L'Aja, nei Paesi Bassi. La loro scelta di andare in ...

Joe Morris - Barre Phillips: Elm City Duets 2006

Read "Elm City Duets 2006" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

A volte si intrecciano e si avvinghiano in un abraccio quasi soffocante, altre volte sembrano ignorarsi seguendo traiettorie apparentemente distanti, a volte sembrano intasare tutto lo spazio disponibile, altre volte rispettano un religioso silenzio, quasi timorosi di invadere il terreno altrui. Stiamo parlando del contrabbasso di Barre Phillips e della chitarra acustica di Joe Morris, impegnati ...

Peter van Huffel - Sophie Tassignon: Hufflignon

Read "Hufflignon" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

John O'Gallagher: Dirty Hands

Read "Dirty Hands" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

Saxophonist John O'Gallagher, a veteran New York player, has been heard in Joe Henderson and Bob Belden's big bands as well as with the much under appreciated players Pete McCann and Ron Horton. He has made some ambitious recordings, including Abacus (Arabesque, 2003), with Ben Monder, and Line of Sight (FSNT, 2005), with Tony Malaby, as ...

Darren Johnston: The Edge Of The Forest

Read "The Edge Of The Forest" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

Thoroughly modern doesn't always equate to thoroughly enjoyable and exceedingly complex rarely yields delight. But if the composer is Darren Johnston and the musicianship is of these high standards, the outcome is instantly satisfying. The Edge Of The Forest is the trumpeter's first Clean Feed disc as leader, but he has been heard on ...
