Colin Vallon Trio: Rruga

Read "Rruga" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Il debutto ECM del trio del pianista svizzero Colin Vallon è pienamente allineato all'estetica predominante dell'etichetta bavarese.

Christian Weidner: The Inward Song

Read "The Inward Song" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


The Inward Song is hardly the quiet, introverted recital of music that might be expected, given the album's title. While alto saxophonist Christian Weidner does throw in a few pieces that fit nicely under this banner, the music on this CD also demonstrates a great deal of range. A case in point is ...
