Tord Gustavsen Trio: Opening
by Peter Jones
Tord Gustavsen's first three piano trio albums sold in unimaginable quantities, made him an unlikely star in his native Norway, and established him internationally. He became the living embodiment of the ECM sound—quiet, contemplative, solemn, spacious. In fact, so spacious, that at gigs one would sometimes wait a seeming eternity for the arrival of the next ...
3x3: Piano Trios: April 2022
by Geno Thackara
Okay, we're technically cheating here since this first one is a duo, but there's a full enough sound that you probably wouldn't know it. As is so often the case with piano groups, there's no end to the variety. Glass Museum Reflet Self produced 2022 Glass Museum isn't ...
Tord Gustavsen Trio: Opening

After 2018's stellar The Other Side, Tord Gustavsen again graces listeners with a trio format.

Michael Mantler: Coda - Orchestra Suites
by Mario Calvitti
Non è mai stato semplice inquadrare l'opera del trombettista e compositore austriaco Michael Mantler.

Da allora si è sempre dedicato ...
Eberhard Weber: Once Upon A Time - Live in Avignon
by Mario Calvitti
Sono trascorsi quasi 15 anni da quel giorno del 2007 in cui il contrabbassista Eberhard Weber fu vittima di un ictus, le cui conseguenze lo lasciarono incapacitato a proseguire l'attività concertistica. La semiparalisi al lato sinistro di cui soffre da allora gli impedisce di riprendere in mano lo strumento e dedicarsi alla musica. Non è comunque ...
Kit Downes, Petter Eldh, James Maddren: Vermillion
by Mike Jurkovic
It shouldn't be tough to tell an artist open to alternate creation that their initial ideas behind any work of art—music, novel, portrait, sculpture—missed the intended target but the fall zone yielded some truly ecstatic, celebratory moments. Quite a few of them to be exact. In the promo attending his third album for ECM, ...
Mathias Eick: When We Leave
by Mario Calvitti
Per il suo quinto album da titolare per la ECM, il trombettista norvegese Mathias Eick riparte da Ravensburg, il precedente lavoro pubblicato nel 2018, mantenendo quelle atmosfere rendendole un po' più sognanti e malinconiche, e confermando in toto i musicisti che vi avevano preso parte. A questi si aggiunge il chitarrista Stian Carstensen, già presente sul ...
