Aruan Ortiz Trio: Hidden Voices
by Dan McClenaghan
The jazz piano trio comes in a wide spectrum of approaches, from the traditional--Red Garland, Tommy Flanagan--to the way out there avant-garde, like Cecil Taylor.

by Stefano Merighi
Il quartetto di Thomas Marriott in questione rappresenta una bella sintesi del jazz americano: Marriott da Seattle, Eric Revis californiano, Orrin Evans erede della scuola di Philadelphia, infine Donald Edwards da New Orleans. Ma le origini non condizionano più di tanto una musica ecumenica, che vive sulla brillantezza tecnica, su un “esperanto" jazzistico che, se poco ...
