Live at SMK / Bach Goldberg Variations
by Neri Pollastri
I due CD in esame, entrambi del 2014, vedono protagonista il pianista danese Carsten Dahl e, sebbene piuttosto diversi tra loro, sono accomunati da un approccio libero da vincoli e mirato a promuovere una musica personale e innovativa. Stefan Pasborg -Carsten Dahl Live at SMK ILK Music 2014 ...
Oestergaard Art Quartet: More Stories from the Village
by Hrayr Attarian
Drummer Michala Østergaard-Nielsen and her quartet's More Stories From The Village is a completely improvised set that captivates with its lyricism and its darkly cinematic ambience. This short yet compelling and cohesive disc is a mordant postmodern folk tale that relies equally on the fluid spontaneity among the ensemble members as well as their expressive individuality. ...
Jon Raney on Doug Raney
Doug Raney (1956-2016), a son of guitar legend Jimmy Raney and a brilliant lyrical guitarist in his own right who lived in Denmark for much of his career, died of heart failure in Copenhagen on May 1, according to his brother Jon. He was 59. Many jazz fans in the States are unfamiliar with Raney, since ...
Taylor's Universe: Across the Universe
by Dave Wayne
Back in the day, record companies would occasionally issue “Greatest Hits" compilation albums. Usually cheaply packaged (no gatefold, no credits, no liner notes, etc.), these collections were a convenient way to have all of an artist's big hits (plus some filler) in one convenient location. Record companies reaped huge profits from these collections and, perhaps, took ...

Blue Note On Blu-Ray
by Mark Werlin
Jazz music is best appreciated with “big ears" and an open mind. Just as exposure to new music casts older, familiar works in a different light, newer formats can expand a listener's perspective on the strengths and limitations of the original recordings. SACDs, Blu-Ray discs and hi-res downloads accurately represent the affective details of ...
Torben Snekkestad: Winds Of Mouth
by Mark Corroto
The Homo sapien caveman picked up a goat's horn and blew some notes through it to entertain the Neanderthals, who had somehow, not paid the cover charge for the spring solstice show. No worries he thought, they'll soon be extinct, and I've just invented music. What the Neanderthals were fascinated with, was, just how ...
Living Room, Barry Guy: Live at Literaturhaus
by Alberto Bazzurro
Il trio danese Living Room ospita il glorioso contrabbassista londinese Barry Guy per questo live consumatosi in quel di Copenhagen nel dicembre 2012, e tre anni dopo ne cava fuori un disco. L'incontro era certo meritevole di documentazione, specie per il lustro che può portare al curriculum dei tre giovani danesi (viaggiano tutti attorno ai quaranta, ...

by Chris Mosey

This boxed set of five CDs and one DVD looks back on a career in jazz that started in 1933 at Copenhagen's Apollo Theater, when “the Fiddling Viking" was just 17, full of youthful confidence and fronting his own quartet.
