Trygve Seim - Frode Haltli: Yeraz
by AAJ Italy Staff
Un duo molto particolare, questo dei due giovani norvegesi Trigve Seim e Frode Haltli. Un duo già visto all'opera, con piacere, al festival Jazz&Wine of Peace di Cormons e che su disco conferma, anzi perfeziona quanto di buono aveva mostrato dal vivo. Dei due, il sassofonista Trygve Seim è il più noto, impostosi grazie ai suoi ...
Arild Andersen: Live at Belleville
by AAJ Italy Staff
Colto dal vivo nell'omonimo club di Oslo, Live at Belleville è il coronamento di un tour europeo iniziato a Uppsala, in Svezia, da questo nuovo trio del contrabbassista norvegese Arild Andersen. Cambio deciso di direzione rispetto al precedente raffinato ed orchestrale Electra che segna il ritorno a una formazione asciutta e rigorosa, di stampo più jazzistico. ...
Jon Hassell: Last night the moon came dropping its clothes in the street
by Henry Smith
Jon Hassell Last night the moon came dropping its clothes in the street ECM Records 2009 Coinciding with his first tour of the States in over twenty years, trumpet player and self-described Fourth World musician Jon Hassell returns to ECM for his first release on the label since ...
Enrico Rava: New York Days
by John Kelman
In assessing Enrico Rava's lengthy career, while it is clear that he is still reaching for the unattainable, in recent years the Italian trumpeter's context has been considerably more centrist. Easy Living (ECM, 2004) and The Words and the Days (ECM, 2007) were undeniably mainstream, albeit with an unmistakable European and, at times, Mediterranean bent. New ...
Keith Jarrett / Gary Peacock / Jack DeJohnette: Yesterdays
by John Kelman
2001 was clearly a banner year for pianist Keith Jarrett and his quarter century-old Standards Trio. Two shows recorded a week apart, have already been released-- The Out-of-Towners (ECM, 2004) and the stellar My Foolish Heart (ECM, 2007), where the trio expanded its encyclopedic approach to the standards repertoire to include some serious stride and ragtime ...
CODONA: The CODONA Trilogy
by John Kelman
When borders are eliminated, infinite possibilities arise. Perhaps the greatest achievement of ECM Records- -especially during its first decade, when it was establishing the unique identity and aesthetic that has made it such a significant force over the past forty years--has been its ability to bring together artists of seemingly different backgrounds to create music that ...
Gianluigi Trovesi: All'Opera - Profumo di Violetta
by AAJ Italy Staff
Il “nostro” Ornette. Questo viene alla mente ascoltando l’ultima fatica di Gianluigi Trovesi, stavolta impegnato con la Filarmonica Mousiké (ben cinquantaquattro elementi diretti da Savino Acquaviva), e pensandolo nelle situazioni, spesso molto differenti tra loro, nelle quali ha registrato i precedenti lavori: gli splendidi CD con l’ottetto, da From G to G (Soul Note, 1992) a ...
Life's Backward Glances - Solo and Quartet
by John Kelman
With an inestimable career largely spent in the service of interpreting the material of others, it's easy to forget pianist Steve Kuhn's equally valuable contributions as a composer. That he's turned almost exclusively to the venerable ECM label when either the spirit moves him to focus once again on his own writing, or when the label's ...
Monika Mauch / Nigel North: Musical Banquet
by C. Michael Bailey
The music of lutenist and composer John Dowland (1563-1526) has been the subject of several recorded studies, including Paul O'Dette on Harmonia Mundi France and Nigel North on Naxos. The German label ECM has an established interest in 15th Century music in general and Dowland's in particular. This focus has resulted in John Potter's Dowland Project ...
Helena Tulve: Lijnen
by AAJ Italy Staff
Prima registrazione per la ECM New Series dell’estone Helena Tulve, Lijnen riunisce sei pezzi di musica da camera per ensemble o quartetto scritti tra il 1997 e il 2003 che, per forma, suono e sonorità, si inscrivono con maestria nel solco tracciato da altri due grandi compositori estoni, Arvo Pärt e Erkki-Sven Tüür. I primi due ...
