Dominic Miller: Silent Light
by Mark Sullivan
Classical guitarist Dominic Miller makes his ECM debut with a largely solo program. It's a gentle, lyrical affair, reflecting his experience living in Argentina, the United States, England, and France, as well as decades of international touring as a working musician. The Brazilian influence is especially strong in pieces like opener “What You Didn't Say" and ...

Dominic Miller: From Sting to ECM
by Luca Muchetti
Dominic Miller's debut album for ECM, Silent Light, has all the qualities to become a sensation. After a career spanning nearly five decades during which he has lent his versatile artistry to the likes of Phil Collins, Tina Turner, Steve Winwood, Peter Gabriel, and Sting since 1993, Miller has released a very intimate and elegant quasi-solo ...
Dominic Miller: dalla corte di Sting a quella di Manfred Eicher
by Luca Muchetti
La prima volta di Dominic Miller per la blasonata ECM Records ha tutte le caratteristiche di un vero evento discografico. Miller, chitarrista fra i più versatili in circolazione e che ha legato il suo nome a un'ormai storica militanza in studio e dal vivo accanto a Sting dai tempi di The Soul Cages (era il 1991, ...
Christopher Zuar Orchestra: Musings
by Neri Pollastri
Esordio discografico per il ventinovenne newyorchese Christopher Zuar, nato trombettista ma ormai dedito alla composizione e all'arrangiamento, che infatti pratica in questo lavoro che lo vede alla direzione di un'orchestra di diciassette elementi, che arrivano a diciannove in alcune tracce con l'ingresso di percussioni e voce. Il lavoro è tutto sommato convenzionale, tipico di ...
Five Classic ECM Titles in High Res
by John Kelman
If ever there were a label that deserved to have its catalog released in a high resolution format, it's Munich's ECM Records. Since its inception in 1969, the multiple award-winning record label headed by producer Manfred Eicher has truly redefined how, initially, jazz and improvised music recordings could--and, at least for some, perhaps should--sound. Attention to ...
Tania Stavreva: Rhythmic Movement
by Karl Ackermann
Pianist and New York City resident Tania Stavreva is a cross-genre trailblazer in the vein of a Stefano Battaglia. More than being at home in both classical and jazz, the Bulgarian native has found an approach that--when desired--connects elements of each form and adds her own methods, resulting in a unique hybrid. The twenty-something artist has ...
Things We Like: Ottobre 2016
by AAJ Staff
Finito il mese di ottobre, riprendiamo la vecchia rubrica “Things We Like," dove, un po' per passione e un po' per gioco, descriviamo le cose (musicali e non) che ci rimarranno impresse del mese appena trascorso. Alberto Bazzurro Ottobre, mese pre-referendario per eccellenza (non quel referendum...), si porta generalmente appresso una caterva ...
Fábio Torres: The Making of Modern Brazilian Jazz
by Samuel Quinto FRSA
When such a vast style as Latin Jazz is explored by musicians of various nationalities, when rhythmic elements are combined, when a portion of good taste and brilliance is added to this mixture, the result could not be different: The Making of Modern Brazilian Jazz. Fabio Torres is a great example of all this. ...
John McLaughlin & Paco de Lucia: Paco and John - Live at Montreux 1987
by John Kelman
It's truly a shame that, all too often, artists with diverse careers become pigeon-holed, defined by the primary genre in which they first achieved notoriety. Take guitarist John McLaughlin, for instance. Ask most jazz fans about him and what will first come out of most of their mouths will include either the words “fusion," “jazz-rock" and/or ...
