Sarajevo Jazz Festival 2016
by Francesco Martinelli
Sarajevo Jazz Festival 2016 Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina November 2-6, 2016 When your plane lands in Sarajevo, its wheels roll over the crumbling underground tunnel that was the only connection of the city to the outside world during the Serbian siege from April 5, 1992 to February 29, 1996. It ...

2016 Enjoy Jazz Festival Heidelberg, Mannheim & Ludwigshafen, Germany October 24-November 1, 2016 Returning to Heidelberg and the Enjoy Jazz Festival after a three-year absence is still more than a bit like returning to a second home. Not just the same hotel (the ever-charming Hollander Hof, along the Neckar River by an ...
Roberto Negro
by Paolo Peviani
Il tratto principale della mia musica. Dare fondo, senso e forma alle composizioni, scritte ed improvvisate. La qualità che desidero nei musicisti che suonano con me. L'amore. Come musicista, il momento in cui sono stato più felice. Quando ho scoperto la “Sagra della Primavera" di Igor Stravinsky. Sono stato ...
Things We Like: Ottobre 2016
by AAJ Staff
Finito il mese di ottobre, riprendiamo la vecchia rubrica “Things We Like," dove, un po' per passione e un po' per gioco, descriviamo le cose (musicali e non) che ci rimarranno impresse del mese appena trascorso. Alberto Bazzurro Ottobre, mese pre-referendario per eccellenza (non quel referendum...), si porta generalmente appresso una caterva ...
Kris Davis: Duopoly
by Stefano Merighi
Per valutare l'arte pianistica di Kris Davis si ascolti l'incipit di Aeriol Piano, album solitario di qualche anno fa. La decostruzione e conseguente reinvenzione dell'usurata “All the Things You Are" rivelavano un folgorante talento di sintesi, di rara sensibilità; per apprezzarne invece la sottigliezza di orchestratrice è utile tornare a Novela, fantastico disco a nome Tony ...

Kris Davis: Duopoly
by Mark Corroto
Query: when does improvised music appear more arranged than written compositions? The question is not a zen koan, it is the notion put forth by the sixteen duets performed by pianist Kris Davis and her eight collaborating partners. Davis, who can no longer be labeled a “rising star" of jazz and improvised piano, is a fully ...

John Zorn: Flaga Plays Masada Book Two
by Luca Canini
Da un pezzo ormai ho rinunciato a seguire da vicino i passi di John Zorn. Troppa fatica stare appresso con puntualità e dedizione alla logorrea discografica del signor Tzadik. Maestro dell'elusione e dell'evanescenza che ha trasformato il catalogo della propria etichetta in una dedalica sala degli specchi (In the Hall of Mirrors forse non a caso ...
