Kris Davis: Capricorn Climber

Read "Capricorn Climber" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Se nel recensire alcuni dei suoi precedenti lavori ci eravamo sbilanciati nel sottolineare le doti di questa pianista di origini canadesi ancora giovanissima, individuandola come talento cristallino da seguire attentamente, con questo Capricorn Climber Kris Davis conferma appieno tutto quanto di buono era stato detto sul suo conto. E lo fa con una maturità sorprendente anche ...

Ches Smith and These Arches: Hammered

Read "Hammered" reviewed by Mark F. Turner


Drummer, composer, and bandleader Ches Smith is an artist with indisputable abilities who thrives on the fringes whether supplying tight rhythms for notable musicians such as guitarist Marc Ribot, saxophonist Darius Jones, and the indie rock band Xiu Xiu, or creating self-produced works like his solo multi-instrumental electronic project Psycho Predictions (Preposterous Bee,2012). ...

Kris Davis: Capricorn Climber

Read "Capricorn Climber" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


Relocating from her native Canada to New York City, pianist Kris Davis has infused her imposing talents into New York City's unconventional, downtown-like scene. She once again aligns her compositional and improvisation expertise with like-minded artists, who frequently transition the jazz idiom into a boundless vista. Hence, the album projects a topsy-turvy and rather oscillating aura, ...

Michaël Attias: Spun Tree

Read "Spun Tree" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Michaël Attias è sassofonista di origini israeliane che, stabilitosi a New York nei primi anni novanta, ne è diventato voce tra le più originali e musicista tra i più richiesti da personaggi come Tim Berne, Paul Motian, Mark Helias, Jason Moran per citarne alcuni. Se innumerevoli sono le partecipazioni a progetti altrui, i dischi licenziati a ...

Ches Smith and These Arches: Hammered

Read "Hammered" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Freschissimo di stampa, ecco il secondo album del gruppo diretto da Ches Smith, dopo Finally Out of My Hands, del 2010. Per l'occasione, si unisce al quartetto-base Tim Berne, e come si capirà facilmente non si tratta di particolare di poco conto. E non è forse neppure il caso di sottolineare che con Berne il giovane ...

Eric Revis: Eric Revis' Parallax

Read "Eric Revis' Parallax" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


Bassist Eric Revis is notoriously comfortable within many jazz contexts and vernaculars. As a leader and session man, he's been in the thick of things, toggling between modern mainstream, trad-jazz, Acid Jazz and other crosscutting musical endeavors. Here, he revisits the freer spectrum, supported by an all-star lineup. And while there's certainly no shortage of group-centric ...

Eric Revis 11:11: Parallax

Read "Parallax" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Sei composizioni del leader, una a testa per Ken Vandermark e per Michael Attias (sassofonista di grande talento, non adeguatamente riconosciuto), tre improvvisazioni collettive, e due brani - Fats Waller e Jelly Roll Morton - che pescano agli albori del jazz. È questo il menu proposto da Parallax, album dagli incroci e incontri impossibili, dalle prospettive ...

Paul Lytton - Nate Wooley [+ Ikue Mori & Ken Vandermark]: The Nows

Read "The Nows" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Per quanto gli improvvisatori più sensibili partano sempre da una prospettiva di massima apertura nei confronti di colleghi, anche e soprattutto di geografie e generazioni differenti dalla propria, perché scatti davvero una scintilla speciale, di quelle che fanno andare oltre l'aspettato [che è spesso in agguato anche in musiche che vivono dell'inaspettato] ci vuole sempre un ...

Sara Serpa / Ran Blake: Aurora

Read "Aurora" reviewed by Hrayr Attarian


Aurora is vocalist Sara Serpa's second release with her mentor, pianist Ran Blake. A duet recital recorded live at Lisbon's Auditório da Culturges, despite being more laidback and slightly less adventurous, it is just as creative as the pair's engrossing Camera Obscura (Inner Circle, 2010). Serpa and Blake's sparse and atmospheric delivery of ...

Paul Lytton & Nate Wooley + Ikue Mori & Ken Vandermark: The Nows

Read "The Nows" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


Ultra-progressive jazz and avant-garde expressionism are trumpeter Nate Wooley's toy stores, so to speak. He's well-established in the modern era's radical music scene and teams here with venerable Euro-jazz percussionist Paul Lytton, equating to a vivid snapshot of the duo's 2011 US tour. Brilliant minds think alike, and the proof resides in the multifarious modes of ...
