David S. Ware & Matthew Shipp Duo: Live In Sant'Anna Arresi, 2004

Read "Live In Sant'Anna Arresi, 2004" reviewed by Jakob Baekgaard


Saxophonist and composer, David S. Ware (1949-2012), was one of the most original voices in modern jazz and his uncompromising approach to his art was deeply connected with a spiritual understanding of life. To Ware, playing and listening to music were different aspects of the essence of life. Ware left behind a rich ...

David S. Ware & Matthew Shipp Duo: Live in Sant'Anna Arresi, 2004

Read "Live in Sant'Anna Arresi, 2004" reviewed by Giuseppe Segala


La frequentazione di David S. Ware e Matthew Shipp è stata scandita dai diciassette anni in cui il pianista era componente del quartetto guidato dal sassofonista, con William Parker al contrabbasso e l'avvicendamento di alcuni pregevoli batteristi. Ma il loro incontro diretto, a due, non è stato frequente in concerto e non li aveva mai portati ...

Read "Ai Confini Tra Sardegna e Jazz - XXXI Edizione" reviewed by Paolo Peviani


Sant'Anna Arresi (CI) 01-10.09.2016 Per questa trentunesima edizione, il festival Ai Confini Tra Sardegna e Jazz ha messo al centro del proprio programma la figura di Frank Zappa. Trattandosi di una manifestazione prevalentemente dedicata all'improvvisazione radicale, la rivisitazione del repertorio zappiano non poteva (non doveva!) limitarsi all'agiografia, al tributo, alla riproposizione ...

Remembering Dominic Duval

Read "Remembering Dominic Duval" reviewed by Dom Minasi

Miguel Crozzoli / Pablo Díaz: Tierra

Read "Tierra" reviewed by Jakob Baekgaard


There is a poem by the Swedish poet Gunnar Ekelöf (1907-1968) called “Den svarte bilden" (The black image) in which he tells about an icon whose image is kissed away. It is a spiritual act of love where the image of representation is transgressed. Interestingly, Ekelöf's poem could be an illustration of what ...

William Parker, Lisa Sokolov, Cooper-Moore: Stan's Hat Flapping in the Wind

Read "Stan's Hat Flapping in the Wind" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro


Album decisamente anomalo, quest'ultimo di William Parker, che vi ricopre il ruolo di puro e semplice autore (parole e musica, peraltro) di songs affidati a una forma quasi atavica, ancestrale, come quella che vede una voce accompagnata solo da un pianoforte. Del sessantaquattrenne bassista newyorchese ritroviamo peraltro diverse stimmate, in questo pur inusuale ...
