Dan Moretti & Piccola Orchestra La Viola: The Journey

Read "The Journey" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


La Piccola Orchestra La Viola è un ensemble “povero," perlopiù composto da organetti che coronano la voce di Antonella Costanzo, sostenuti da un basso elettrico e delle percussioni. Il tutto diretto da Alessandro Parente, per mettere in scena solitamente una elegante world music che pesca nella tradizione per guardare al presente e al futuro. In questo ...

The State of The Saxophone Trio: Dan Moretti, Domenic Landolf, Jacob Duncan

Read "The State of The Saxophone Trio: Dan Moretti, Domenic Landolf, Jacob Duncan" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


There is something Baroque about jazz ensembles lacking a piano or guitar as a harmony instrument . Their absence frees previously occupied sonic space for other uses.

Dan Moretti and Once Through: Passing Place

Read "Passing Place" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


When I first heard saxophonist/bandleader Dan Moretti's Once Through, I loved the sound and proclaimed it “a wonderful debut." Moretti promptly wrote me (isn't email a great thing) to say that the release was his ninth as a leader. He was polite but insistent that I fix the published review. I complied, explaining that the sound ...
