Giuseppe Doronzo: Futuro Ancestrale
by Mark Corroto
A mesmerizing approach to an improvising trio yields Futuro Ancestrale, which was recorded during a performance at Amsterdam's Bimhuis in June of 2022. This trio brings together Italian baritone saxophonist Giuseppe Doronzo, guitarist Andy Moor and American drummer Frank Rosaly. Doronzo (Aterraterr and AVA Trio) and Rosaly (Rempis Percussion Quartet and ¡Todos de Pie!) have relocated ...
Simon Nabatov 3+2: Verbs
by Glenn Astarita
Renowned Germany-based pianist Simon Nabatov's piano work is both technically proficient and emotionally resonant, weaving intricate melodies and harmonies that unfold with each track. And his fingers dance across the keys with a precision and passion that is almost scandalous, as if the piano itself blushes with each touch. One notable aspect of the ...
Mikko Innanen / Cedric Piromalli / Stefan Pasborg: Can You Hear It?
by Glenn Astarita
In the world of jazz, where the unexpected often becomes the standard, the sophomore album from the international trio of Mikko Innanen, Stefan Pasborg and Cédric Piromall, aptly named Can You Hear It?, plays like a delightful curveball that even seasoned jazz aficionados didn't see coming. This album is to conventional jazz what a saxophone solo ...
Simon Nabatov 3 + 2: Verbs
by John Sharpe
What constitutes a composition? German-based Russian-born pianist Simon Nabatov makes a convincing case that a simple verbal instruction can suffice on Verbs. It is not a claim he makes himself, but the six supposed improvisations each mines such a distinctive seam that, although spontaneously conceived without melody or other formal arrangement, the initial proposition proves enough. ...
Trespass Trio featuring Susana Santos Silva: Live In Oslo
by John Sharpe
Although Swedish saxophonist Martin Küchen is the toast of festival-goers across Europe for the variously sized Angles ensembles he fronts, which revel in sometimes exuberant, sometimes heart-rending riff-fuelled anthems, he also pursues somewhat more somber strands of expression. One involves the sort of adventurous sonic explorations heard on Animal Quotes (Relative Pitch, 2022). But ...
Giuseppe Doronzo, Andy Moor, Frank Rosaly: Futuro Ancestrale
by Karl Ackermann
Within the diversity of Amsterdam's global, multi-cultural environment, Italian saxophonist & composer Giuseppe Doronzo called on the talents of UK guitarist Andy Moor and US drummer Frank Rosaly. The trio project, Futuro Ancestrale, is a collection of avant-garde improvisations marked by folkloric influences and experimentation. Three of the five compositions rose out of a request from ...
Aruán Ortiz: Pastor's Paradox
by Alberto Bazzurro
Eccellenti i brani solo strumentali, a tratti un po' verbosi, zavorrati (come accade spesso, del resto) quelli con l'aggiunta di Mtume Gant alla “dizione": si potrebbe sintetizzare così questo album del pianista cubano (ma da oltre vent'anni di stanza negli USA) Aruán Ortiz, ma sarebbe ovviamente eccessivamente semplicistico. Allora diciamo che anche gli ...
Fritz Hauser & Pedro Carneiro: Pas de Deux
by Glenn Astarita
Pas de Deux (a dance for two) is an enthralling collaboration between percussion luminaries Fritz Hauser and Pedro Carneiro, emerging as a symphonic exploration of rhythm and resonance, challenging and redefining the traditional confines of percussion-based music. This collection transcends the typical aggregation of tracks; it unfolds as a nuanced, poetic exchange between two maestros, articulating ...
Ludovico Granvassu's Garden of Jazzy Delights 2023
by Ludovico Granvassu
If it is true that, like The Police once put it, “when the world is going down you make the best of what's still around," then throughout 2023 jazz fans were better off than most other social groups. In a year in which everyday news brought ever more inconceivable disappointments, jazz musicians, labels, festivals and venues ...
Trespass Trio featuring Susana Santos Silva: Live in Oslo
by Mark Corroto
Adding Portuguese trumpeter Susana Santos Silva to Swedish saxophonist Martin Küchen's Trespass Trio for the 2018 Blowout Festival in Oslo, Norway was “a no-brainer." The inclusion of her trumpet, which features in ensembles led by Mats Gustafsson, Fred Frith, and Torbjörn Zetterberg, to name but a few, requires little or no thought. It is as if ...
