Chick Corea / Stefano Bollani: Orvieto
by John Kelman
If the combination of two chordal instruments--guitar with piano, or vibraphone with guitar, say--can prove a significant challenge in improvised music, then surely the piano duo is the most demanding of all. No other instrument has a seven-and-a-quarter octave range, played with eight fingers and two thumbs, creating far greater risk of harmonic, melodic and rhythmic ...
Ricardo Villalobos / Max Loderbauer: Re: ECM
by John Kelman
The concept of remix-- using studio technology to deconstruct, reshape and reconstruct extant recordings--is far from new, but the past decade has seen a considerable expansion of purview. Once more closely aligned with the club scene, remixes are no longer solely about relentless beats for dancing; instead, as Norway's Punkt Festival has been demonstrating for seven ...

Susana Santos Silva Quintet: Devil's Dress
by Dan McClenaghan

The Big Easy was a cosmopolitan city, even in its beginnings. European jazz, borrowed from America but originating in and played by European ...

by AAJ Italy Staff
Parco della Musica - Roma - 20.05.2011 È fine maggio, ma a Roma già si respira l'aria dell'estate. Fa caldo. Donne senza calze e uomini che soffrono in giacca, giusto per il protocollo, si incontrono all'ora del Campari al Parco della Musica.

Dave Douglas Brass Ecstasy: United Front: Brass Ecstasy At Newport
by Mark Corroto

Likewise, hearing Dave Douglas' Brass Ecstasy live is superior to any studio recording. Not that the band's Spirit Moves (Greenleaf, 2009) was a subpar Douglas recording; ...
