Roberto Bindoni: Summer Things
by Neri Pollastri
Mezz'ora di musica per sola chitarra, acustica o classica; musica sempre sospesa, ora dolce e melodica, ora più astratta e riflessiva, costruita con raffinati arpeggi, ma anche valorizzando stridor di corde, riverberi, suoni parassiti e percussioni sulla cassa: questo è Summer Things, album autoprodotto del chitarrista bresciano Roberto Bindoni. Il lavoro arriva dopo Winter ...

Keith Jarrett's European Quartet: Innocence
by Scott Lichtman
It just so happens that two of the most poignant jazz ballads--in my opinion--were released in the same year. I'm not talking about throw-back masterpieces, such as Thelonious Monk's “Round Midnight" or Horace Silver's “Lonely Woman." Rather, they are Keith Jarrett's “Innocence" and Egberto Gismonti's “Palhaço," both originally issued in 1980. What makes these pieces stand ...

by Chris May
Tenor saxophonist André Roligheten is best known outside his native Norway, and wider Scandinavia, as a member of drummer Gard Nilssen's Acoustic Unity and as a composer/arranger in the berserker big band, Supersonic Orchestra. Nilssen returns the favour on Marbles, one of Roligheten's infrequent own-name releases. The album has grown out of a ...
Cristina Zavalloni: fra canzone e ricerca
by Libero Farnè
L'ecclettismo, la vitalità creativa e l'intelligenza interpretativa di Cristina Zavalloni ci hanno abituato a sorprese continue, sia in concerto che nelle edizioni discografiche. È significativa la successione delle sue incisioni degli ultimissimi anni, a cominciare da For the Living (Encore, 2020), lavoro “impegnato" realizzato nel primo anno del Covid a capo di una formazione italo-scandinava da ...
