Ellery Eskelin - Andrea Parkins - Jim Black

Read "Ellery Eskelin - Andrea Parkins - Jim Black" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Area Sismica - Forlì - 17.11.2007 Il trio Eskelin-Parkins-Black è un gruppo longevo: attivo dal 1994, ha accumulato una nutrita discografia, una ricca esperienza live e l'affiatamento proprio delle formazioni mature. Ed è infatti considerata una delle realtà più significative del nuovo jazz contemporaneo. Ellery Eskelin è indubbiamente il cuore e la mente creativa del gruppo: ...

Ellery Eskelin: Quiet Music

Read "Quiet Music" reviewed by Kurt Gottschalk


Saxophonist Ellery Eskelin's trio with Andrea Parkins and Jim Black is so tight, so dense, that it's hard to imagine another musician in the mix. But on this double-disc set he adds vocalist Jessica Constable and on three tracks augments the group up to a quintet with Phillippe Gelda on keyboards and vocals. The results are ...

Ellery Eskelin: Quiet Music

Read "Quiet Music" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


Years on the road and numerous recording for Swiss-based Hatology Records have generated a distinguished musical persona for tenor sax titan Ellery Eskelin and his band. Here, drummer Jim Black and accordionist/sampler Andrea Parkins assist with moving the torch forward. But the addition of vocalist Jessica Constable and French vocalist/keyboardist Philippe Gelda rein in a new ...

Ellery Eskelin: Quiet Music

Read "Quiet Music" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Ogni lavoro che coinvolge il sassofono tenore di Ellery Eskelin è un'esperienza di ascolto totale all'interno di un gioco di codici che hanno come riferimento tanto il jazz quanto ogni altro genere. Da tempo il sassofonista americano rifiuta le definizioni dei critici sul suo approccio allo strumento, certo utili per dare un'idea (Coltrane, Coleman Hawkins...) di ...

Ellery Eskelin: Ten

Read "Ten" reviewed by Shawn McGrew


This article was originally published under our Call and Response column. It's curious that both Andrea Parkins and Jim Black's names are absent from the front cover of Ten. This marks the tenth year the band has been together and both long-time associates do participate on this project. Despite functioning as the leader, Eskelin's ...

Ellery Eskelin: Ten

Read "Ten" reviewed by AAJ Staff


It would have been way too predictable if tenor saxophonist Ellery Eskelin had celebrated the tenth anniversary of his trio with accordionist/pianist/sampler player Andrea Parkins and drummer Jim Black by putting together another record like the seven they have already made. He's never been one to rest comfortably with the safe and sure--and to be honest, ...
