Dan Weiss Trio: Timshel

Read "Timshel" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Non saprei dire quanti piano-trio nella storia del jazz siano a nome del batterista ed eseguano esclusivamente (o principalmente) sue composizioni, ma suppongo si possano contare sulle dita di una mano. E' quindi con grande interesse e curiosità che ho inserito nel lettore Timshel del Dan Weiss Trio. Dan Weiss si è fatto conoscere, anche in ...

David Binney: Graylen Epicenter

Read "Graylen Epicenter" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

David Binney: Graylen Epicenter

Read "Graylen Epicenter" reviewed by Troy Collins


Saxophonist, composer and producer David Binney, a progressive artist with one foot in the mainstream and the other in the avant-garde, has gracefully skirted the tenuous divide between traditions for over two decades. Regularly alternating between semi-casual blowing dates and far more ambitious projects, Binney follows up the relatively straight-ahead Aliso (Criss Cross, 2010) and lavish ...

David Binney: Graylen Epicenter

Read "Graylen Epicenter" reviewed by John Kelman


Even with artists whose eyes are always on a dangling carrot that keeps them moving relentless forward, there are albums where quantum leaps are made. Since 2005, alto saxophonist/composer David Binney has been alternating between small ensemble, inherently quick-and-dirty sessions for the Dutch Criss Cross label like Aliso (2010) and more ambitious projects on his own ...

Search and Restore Benefit: A Round Robin of Duo Improvisations

Read "Search and Restore Benefit: A Round Robin of Duo Improvisations" reviewed by Daniel Lehner


There's an old conundrum about a man with an axe. He broke the head chopping at a particularly stubborn branch and replaced it. Months later, he broke the handle and replaced that. The question goes: Does he have the same axe? It's a philosophical question that deals with how parts interrelate with a whole. Now imagine ...
