Mike Mainieri: Man Behind Bars
by John Kelman
It's hard to imagine vibraphonist Mike Mainieri in his seventies. Not only does he look and sound like a man 10 years (or more) his junior, but a quick look at the projects he's been involved in over the past few years sound like anything but a septuagenarian resting on his not inconsiderable laurels.

Marty Ehrlich: Things Have Got To Change
by Stuart Broomer
The clarity that's so immediately apparent in Marty Ehrlich's alto sound permeates his work, so that there's a quality at once naked and luminous in the music heard here. The quartet with trumpeter James Zollar, cellist Erik Friedlander and drummer Pheeroan akLaff and the concept harkens back to the early Ornette Coleman Quartet, each member committed ...
Marty Ehrlich Rites Quartet: Things Have Got To Change
by Troy Collins
One of the seminal artists of the New York Loft jazz scene, composer and multi-instrumentalist Julius Hemphill (1938-1995) left a diverse legacy that lives on through the tireless efforts of saxophonist Tim Berne and multi-instrumentalist Marty Ehrlich. Hemphill's earthy forays with cellist Abdul Wadud in the early seventies broke new stylistic ground, unapologetically drawing inspiration from ...

Le tappe italiane del tour europeo di Erik Friedlander
by AAJ Italy Staff
Sono pochi i musicisti viventi che hanno avuto una influenza sull'evoluzione del proprio strumento paragonabile a quella di Erik Friedlander sul violoncello. Dopo i tour italiani con i progetti Topaz e Broken Harm Trio, All About Jazz Italia l'ha seguito nelle due tappe del suo ultimo tour in solo, a Cremona e Forlì (con annessa galleria ...
Erik Friedlander - Cremona
by AAJ Italy Staff
Teatro Ponchielli - Cremona - 26.04.2009 Chapeau! Perché presentarsi sul palcoscenico del Teatro Ponchielli di Cremona - capitale degli strumenti ad arco e città natale di un certo Antonio Stradivari - accompagnato solo da un violoncello nero di carbonio, richiede una certa dose di coraggio, di incoscienza e, perché no, di sana follia. Qualità che Erik ...
Erik Friedlander - Forlì
by AAJ Italy Staff
Area Sismica - Forlì - 25.4.2009 Si è degnamente chiusa con questo concerto in solo di Erik Friedlander l'ottima stagione concertistica 2008-2009 dell'Area Sismica. Friedlander ha presentato un repertorio di composizioni proprie e di John Zorn (più “Golden Dawn" di Carlos Santana nei bis). Uno Zorn decisamente ingentilito dal trattamento e dall'interpretazione del violoncellista, che ha ...
Ellery Eskelin/ Sylvie Courvoisier: Every So Often
by Mark Corroto
The improvisational intersection of American and European music exemplified in the recording Every So Often finds common ground without much trouble when the improvisers are Ellery Eskelin and Sylvie Courvoisier. This hour of sonically stellar studio recordings never lacks for innovation nor repeats ideas. Saxophonist Eskelin, a jazz maverick is probably best known for ...
Making the Cello Jazzy: Its All in the Pizzicato Pluck
The cellist Erik Friedlander possesses a deep, singing tone on his instrument, and when he gives into it completely, he can be a heartbreaker. At the diminutive Brooklyn club Barbs, which he regards as a second home, his sound approaches room-size resonance, with little or no amplification, just about anytime he draws a bow across the ...
