LUME: Xabregas 10
by Glenn Astarita
LUME is the acronym for the Lisbon Underground Music Ensemble, which is a large mini-big band type unit, captured live and arranged by pianist Marco Barroso who also penned the compositions. With prog rock nuances and some Frank Zappa style horn charts, the ensemble pushes the envelope from start to finish. It's a stinging presentation that ...
John Lindberg Raptor Trio: Western Edges
by Alberto Bazzurro
Bassista dai gloriosi trascorsi (da Braxton allo String Trio, in primis), John Lindberg ha poi intrapreso una carriera di preferenza alla testa di propri gruppi (non meno di venticinque gli album a suo nome), rendendosi protagonista di lavori quasi sempre tutt'altro che trascurabili. Questo suo ultimo CD, appena uscito ma risalente come incisione all'aprile 2012, occupa ...
Roy Nathanson: Nearness And You, Duets and Improvisations
by John Sharpe
All the selections on Nearness And You come from saxophonist Roy Nathanson's June 2015 residency at the Stone in NYC, and feature a galaxy of current and past collaborators. Throughout his career, from the Lounge Lizards via the Jazz Passengers to Sotto Voce, Nathanson has brought an irreverent approach to the serious business of music making. ...
Festen: Festen
by John Sharpe
Does the world really need another Scandinavian group from the Clean Feed stable? Well in the case of Festen, the answer is a resounding yes! Further confounding the by now tired Nordic tone stereotype, and even diverging from the outfits influenced by the 1960s avant-garde, this quartet comprising four young Swedes based in Stockholm, propounds a ...
Eve Risser White Desert Orchestra: Les Deux Versants Se Regardent
by Phil Barnes
Space in jazz, in the musical rather than the science fiction sense, is a difficult thing to pull off effectively. Miles Davis may well have said “don't play what's there, play what's not there" but Mr Davis said a lot of things including “if you don't know what to play, play nothing." Its like talking quietly--if ...
Mark Dresser Seven: Sedimental You
by Mark Sullivan
Bassist/composer Mark Dresser has long maintained a bi-coastal career. Born in Los Angeles, for many years his base of operations was New York--including ten years as a member of the Anthony Braxton Quartet--but since 2004 he has been on the faculty of the University of California, San Diego. The all-star septet on Sedimental You bridges the ...
Mark Dresser Seven: Sedimental You
by Alberto Bazzurro
Una rinnovata vena creativa accompagna l'attuale stagione (peraltro in vigore--diciamo così -da diversi anni) di colui che fu il bassista di gruppi storici dell'avanguardia jazzistica quali il quartetto di Anthony Braxton e vari ensemble riuniti da Tim Berne. Mark Dresser, anni sessantaquattro, si cimenta in questo suo nuovo lavoro con un organico di dimensioni allargate, come ...
Mark Dresser Seven: Sedimental You
by Karl Ackermann
In the early stages of his career, bassist/composer Mark Dresser was working with the likes of Anthony Braxton, Marilyn Crispell, and Gerry Hemingway. His long track record of working in composition and improvisation has made him one of the most respected artists in creative music. On Sedimental You, Dresser surrounds himself with a top tier ensemble ...
Tony Malaby Paloma Recio: Incantations
by Vic Albani
Grazia, ricerca, controllo. Queste le sicure basi sulle quali si muove il nuovo lavoro della personale “club band" del sassofonista Tony Malaby, sorta di vero must dei tempi del jazz moderno. All'opera è un quartetto di grandi talenti. Oltre al leader (al tenore e al soprano), rendono bellezza all'arte musicale Ben Monder alla chitarra, Eivind Opsvik ...
Mark Dresser Seven: Sedimental You
by Jerome Wilson
Bassist Mark Dresser has had a long, distinguished career in jazz and new music working with a long list of musicians that includes Anthony Braxton, Tim Berne, Anthony Davis and John Zorn but he hasn't recorded much lately as a leader. This project sees him leading and writing for a diverse group of familiar and relatively ...
