Scheen Jazzorkester & Cortex: Frameworks
by John Sharpe
Frameworks is the sort of project that would be difficult to envisage anywhere other than the supportive cultural ecosystem of Norway. Calling on diverse funding streams, it brings together the 11-member Scheen Jazzorkester (SJO) and the forward looking quartet Cortex, in a venture masterminded by the latter's trumpeter Thomas Johansson. Established in 2010 as a professional ...
Peter Van Huffel's Callisto: Meandering Demons
by Glenn Astarita
Peter Van Huffel, the Canadian-born saxophonist and composer, has long been a force to reckon with in the avant-garde jazz scene.

Peter Van Huffel’s Callisto: Meandering Demons
by Alberto Bazzurro
Quartetto geograficamente misto, quello diretto dal quarantaseienne (quasi) baritonista canadese Peter Van Huffel, con una trombettista italo-canadese, un pianista greco e un batterista tedesco. Molto coesa, compatta, illuminata (e guidata) da un'idea forte è peraltro la musica contenuta in quest'ottimo album, inciso a Berlino nell'ottobre 2022. L'idea di cui sopra si deve certamente al leader (tutti ...
Rob Mazurek: Milan
by Alberto Bazzurro
Inciso in presa diretta a Radio Popolare il 25 settembre 2023, questo singolare album esprime l'anima multiforme, anche vorace (e a volte un po' dispersiva), di Rob Mazurek, impegnato su un'autentica selva di strumenti, cosa del resto in lui non così rara (si ascolti per esempio il più o meno coevo Medea, inciso in coppia con ...
Jonas Cambien's Maca Conu: Maca Conu
by John Sharpe
While Oslo-based Belgian pianist Jonas Cambien's Maca Conu may be a new venture, it has a lot in common with his trio which made a series of acclaimed albums, including A Zoology of the Future (Clean Feed, 2016) and We Must Mustn't We (Clean Feed, 2018). Not least of that is down to the continued tenure ...

TGB: Room4
by Alberto Bazzurro
Un trio con tuba, chitarra e batteria è cosa tutt'altro che usuale. Tale anti-regola, se così la possiamo definire, ci giunge da tre giovanotti portoghesi, in realtà insieme ormai da vent'anni (questo, inciso nel gennaio 2022 e forte di nove brani tutti originali, è il loro quarto album, sempre su Clean Feed), capaci di regalarci un ...
