Ellery Eskelin - Andrea Parkins - Jim Black: One Great Night... Live
by AAJ Italy Staff
Strano a dirsi, ma in quindici anni di felicissima convivenza, Ellery Eskelin, Andrea Parkins e Jim Black non si erano mai tolti lo sfizio di pubblicare un live. Colpa di Eskelin e delle sue mire perfezionistiche, spiegano le note di copertina, della ritrosia del sassofonista nell'abbandonare il tepore dello studio. Che cosa abbia fatto cambiare idea ...

by Gordon Marshall

As well as the music, Hemingway has also penned the words. His chosen voice is ...
100nka and Herb Robertson: Superdesert
by Jerry D'Souza
How much shit can one take? Well that depends. If it is being served by the quirky Polish trio 100nka--featuring guitarist Tomek Leś, bassist Adam Stodolski and percussionist Przemek Borowiecki--there may not be quite enough. Their music is rather undefinable, jumping and sneaking as it does into odd nooks and crannies. Much of it comes from ...
Harris Eisenstadt: From Mbalax to Canada Day
by Clifford Allen
Over the past decade, drummer, bandleader and composer Harris Eisenstadt has been a force in improvised music, active in both Los Angeles and New York (where he now resides). It's a testament to his creativity and energy that his ensembles have run the gamut from free-bop in the vein of post-Blue Note small groups, to orchestral ...
Sylvie Courvoisier - Ellery Eskelin: Every So Often
by AAJ Italy Staff
Eskelin e la Courvoisier si erano già incontrati nel settembre 2007 (esattamente un anno prima della registrazione di questo disco) per incidere As Soon As Possible con il violoncellista Vincent Courtois. Forse nella dimensione del trio la gamma delle sequenze formali più numerose e il campo di azione più ampio rendeva la musica meno ermetica, fatto ...
