Rick Germanson Trio: Off the Cuff

Read "Off the Cuff" reviewed by John Kelman


With so many mainstream piano trios flooding the market, it's increasingly difficult to separate the wheat from the chaff. It's easier when, in the instance of a Brad Mehldau, John Taylor or Enrico Pieranunzi, the artist's voice is so distinctive and approach so readily identifiable that there can be little doubt of its relevance. It becomes ...

High On Classical Gas: Jacques Loussier, Tiempo Libre and James Galway, Burgstaller Martignon

Read "High On Classical Gas: Jacques Loussier, Tiempo Libre and James Galway, Burgstaller Martignon" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


Jazz and classical musics should be friends. They have much in common. It is conceivable that a synthesis of the two could be achieved as successfully as that existing between jazz and rock. However, most attempts to meld jazz and classical have yielded mediocre results. Some headway has been made. The recent appearance of pianist Enrico ...

Enrico Pieranunzi: Enrico Pieranunzi Plays Domenico Scarlatti

Read "Enrico Pieranunzi Plays Domenico Scarlatti" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


Italian jazz pianist Enrico Pieranunzi uses a very liberal interpretation of the allegro notation when interpreting the tempi of several of the sonatas on Enrico Pieranunzi Plays Domenico Scarlatti. This is evident right off the bat with the opening Sonata in E Major, K. 531. Allegro is defined as “fast and bright." Okay: well, jack that ...

Enrico Pieranunzi - Marc Johnson - Joey Baron: Dream Dance

Read "Dream Dance" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


ome Keith Jarrett, Pieranunzi sta cominciando a fare il verso a se stesso, riproponendo in serie una musica ed una formula ampiamente documentate su disco. Non si contano più i suoi recenti dischi per la Cam, che ne sta producendo la stagione più mainstream, volta a citare e citarsi. Tecnica sopraffina arcinota e solido interplay di ...

Lee Konitz: Lee Konitz Meets Alessandro Lanzoni Trio

Read "Lee Konitz Meets Alessandro Lanzoni Trio" reviewed by Stuart Broomer


This CD is exciting enough to require several titles, beginning with Lee Konitz meets Alessandro Lanzoni Trio, then Poetical Lee, then 81+15=96!, before concluding with the parenthetical (for Bill Evans). But it's the exclamatory equation 81+15=96! that's at the heart of the enthusiasm, declaring the respective ages of altoist Konitz and pianist Lanzoni. There's a celebration ...

Enrico Pieranunzi / Marc Johnson / Joey Baron: Dream Dance

Read "Dream Dance" reviewed by John Kelman


Focusing on all-original material, pianist Enrico Pieranunzi's Dream Dance proves that when there's the right chemistry, a group can retain it throughout the years, even if reconvening only occasionally. While not a regular working unit like Keith Jarrett's enduring Standards Trio with bassist Gary Peacock and drummer Jack DeJohnette, Pieranunzi's trio with bassist Marc Johnson and ...

Enrico Pieranunzi: Plays Domenico Scarlatti

Read "Plays Domenico Scarlatti" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Progetto intrigante ed ambizioso, quello messo in piedi da Enrico Pieranunzi e documentato in questo CD: confrontarsi, da musicista contemporaneo e, in particolare, da jazzista, con uno dei grandi nomi della musica barocca - Domenico Scarlatti. Il modo scelto dal pianista romano per una tale sfida è quello di presentare una serie di “coppie," includenti ciascuna ...
