Jason Robinson: Tiresian Symmetry
by Eyal Hareuveni
Composer and reed player Jason Robinson tends to weave his musical projects with multiple and overlapping narrative layers, and Tiresian Symmetry is no different. It is more ambitious than his previous large ensemble project, The Two Faces of Janus (Cuneiform, 2010), but still draws inspiration from Greek mythology. This time he was inspired by the mythical ...
Living by Lanterns: New Myth/Old Science
by AAJ Italy Staff
L'ensemble Living by Lanterns riunisce, attorno alle figure leader di Mike Reed e Jason Adasiewicz, un manipolo di rappresentanti della più effervescente scena delle città guida nell'attuale panorama improvvisativo statunitense, vale adire New York e Chicago. Il progetto nasce attorno ad un'idea tanto affascinante quanto rischiosa riferendosi ad un personaggio unico e decisamente poco esportabile come ...

Janel & Anthony: Where Is Home
by AAJ Italy Staff
Non ricordiamo altri esempi di album in duo con violoncello e chitarra, anche se, vista la proliferazione ormai incontrollabile di autoproduzioni favorite dall'uso sempre più frequente di tecniche low cost di produzione musicale, non possiamo certo escludere questa possibilità. In questo caso la violoncellista Janel Leppin e il chitarrista Anthony Pirog trovano il giusto supporto nella ...
Living By Lanterns: New Myth/Old Science
by Troy Collins
First premiered live at the 2011 Chicago Jazz Festival, the material presented on the studio recording New Myth/Old Science was originally commissioned by Experimental Sound Studio. As one of the Windy City's most prominent scene leaders, drummer Mike Reed was given unprecedented access to audition over 700 hours of tape from Sun Ra's El Saturn Audio ...
Forgas Band Phenomena: Acte V
by AAJ Italy Staff
Quinta prova discografica per l'ensemble Forgas Band Phenomena, settetto guidato da Patrick Forgas, batterista-compositore-arrangiatore francese, già noto nei circuito del progressive e della fusion europea per i suoi trascorsi da “scolaro" della scuola di Canterbury. Forse pochi ricorderanno il suo esordio, nel 1977, Cocktail, con membri di Magma e Zao e la partecipazione del bravo bassista ...
Forgas Band Phenomena: Acte V
by Glenn Astarita
Drawing comparisons to a pro football team, this band would most assuredly make the playoffs every year. Highly acclaimed, the French unit led by drummer Patrick Forgas looms as a proven commodity within the upper echelon of progressive rock. The album presents a potpourri of fusion and jazz-rock that translucently incorporates the blitzkrieg improvisational segments of ...
Is That a Woodblock?

Jazz and Poetry: Impacted Gems
by Gordon Marshall
The poetry of the Beats, the New York school and the Black Mountain school, as well as the jazz poets, all share a particularly heavy rhythmic feel and an earthy, gritty imagery that creates a kind of syncopation within itself. The scenes dance and bump up against each other, cutting and rubbing up against the beat. ...
Positive Catastrophe: Dibrujo, Dibrujo, Dibrujo...
by Glenn Astarita
Creative juices must have been bouncing off the studio walls during the recording process of this band's sophomore album. The ten-piece unit includes several progressive-jazz notables, such as cornetist Taylor Ho Bynum and saxophonists Matt Bauder and Michael Attias. The perspicacious group-centric focus enlivens a wild Latin Jazz jamboree, where rules are most certainly meant to ...
