Vijay Iyer and Craig Taborn: The Transitory Poems
by Luca Canini
Quattro mani, due pianisti. Vijay Iyer e Craig Taborn. Sullo stesso palco, quello della Franz List Academy di Budapest, nel marzo di un anno fa. Un incontro ravvicinato, non il primo (e nemmeno l'ultimo: in arrivo una lunga serie di date al di qua e al di là dell'Atlantico), al quale Manfred Eicher e l'ECM hanno ...

Peter Evans / Sam Pluta: Two Live Sets
by Mark Corroto
The most extraordinary music ever presented has elicited the same time-honored “what the f@#k was that?" response. From Elvis (both Presley and Costello) to Grandmaster Flash, Igor Stravinsky, and Charlie Parker, the “shock of the new'" (to borrow a phrase from art critic Robert Hughes) adjusts listeners' criteria for judging a composition or performance, and often ...
David Torn/Tim Berne/Ches Smith: Sun Of Goldfinger
by Dan McClenaghan

Torn, a self-described “texturalist/guitarist," has been associated with ECM Records since the '80s, with Cloud About Mercury (1987)--a disc the label is reissuing ...

1. Dawn of Midi, Dysnomia, (Erased Tapes Records, 2015). Il piano trio più particolare che abbia sentito negli ultimi tempi: il disco è un flusso continuo e ossessivo di frasi ripetute ciclicamente e sezioni che si sovrappongono. Difficile definirlo in modo chiaro. Sembra di ascoltare la musica di Jon Hopkins suonata in formazione acustica ...
