Leandro Cabral: Alfa

Read "Alfa" reviewed by Tyran Grillo

by Tyran Grillo

Fans of ECM's trio recordings of the past decade: take note. Alfa is a worthy contender for your collection. Brazilian pianist and composer Leandro Cabral's second leader date is as multilayered and expansive as anything put out by Benedikt Jahnel, Colin Vallon, or Marcin Wasilewski, and has been captured at the peak of fidelity by engineer ...

Read "Danse" reviewed by Karl Ackermann

by Karl Ackermann

Pianist Colin Vallon seems on the verge of a creative breakthrough with his new trio album Danse. With his third ECM trio release Vallon has cemented a personal approach to his music; it is one that has taken time to unfold much like many of his compositions. In his writing, as well as group interplay, the ...

Manu Katche: Touchstone for Manu

Read "Manu Katche: Touchstone for Manu" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

With only four records released as a leader on ECM, it may seem a little early to release a “best of" disc for drummer Manu Katché. But having since moved on to fellow German label ACT for Live in Concert, while Touchstone for Manu is only being released in North America in the summer of 2015, ...

Elina Duni Quartet: Dallëndyshe

Read "Dallëndyshe" reviewed by Neri Pollastri

by Neri Pollastri

Secondo album ECM per il quartetto della cantante albanese--ma svizzera di adozione -Elina Duni, composto con lei dal rodato trio, anch'esso svizzero, di Colin Vallon. E la Svizzera--da sempre punto d'incontro di culture diverse, ma da qualche anno crogiuolo ove si mescolano in particolare molteplici influenze provenienti dall'immigrazione dell'area balcanica--si dimostra un eccellente brodo di coltura. ...

Colin Vallon Trio: Le Vent

The results are atmospheric and exquisitely formalistic. This is not to suggest that, because of its ambient nature, the album is without substance. On the contrary, its structure becomes ...

Manfred Eicher: ECM - Selected Signs III - VIII

Read "Manfred Eicher: ECM - Selected Signs III - VIII" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

When München's Haus der Kunst sponsored a nearly three-month exhibition about the ECM Records label, ECM: A Cultural Archeology, which ran from November, 2012 to February, 2013, there was far more to it than just bringing together collections of album covers, rarely seen video, archival tapes, imagery and concert performances. As much as ECM has carved ...
