Michel Levasseur Leaves the Building
by Mike Chamberlain
The run-up to this year's 39th edition of the Festival International de Musique Actuelle de Victoriaville (FIMAV, or Victo) has been anything but routine. First, it was announced in December that the City of Victoriaville had rescinded the festival's contract for the use of the Colisée des Bois-Francs arena as one of the festival's two main ...
Machine Mass: Inti
by John Kelman
One of music's most remarkable qualities is its ability to provide a context for expression of otherwise indescribable feelings. The genesis of Machine Mass Trio came at a time of duress for Tony Bianco, the expat American drummer who, since relocating to Europe in the mid-1990s, has performed with A-list improvising musicians including Elton Dean, Evan ...

Seishin-Seido represents another heads up on the depth of the Japanese free jazz community from the Lithuanian NoBusiness imprint as part of its partnership with Chap Chap Records. They raid the archives for a live date from 1995 in the southern city of Hofu, which actually unites two Korean musicians, trumpeter Choi Sun Bae and percussionist ...

A dialogo con Mariasole De Pascali
by Neri Pollastri
Ormai da qualche anno al centro di progetti interessantissimi e assai singolari--Bestiario di Francesco Massaro, Lamiee di Nicholas Remondino, l'Orchestra Nazionale Jazz Giovani Talenti di Paolo Damiani--e collaborazioni con musicisti quali Marco Colonna o Admir Shkurtaj, la flautista pugliese Mariasole De Pascali è giunta alla realizzazione del suo primo lavoro a proprio nome, Fera, uscito per ...
Roberto Ottaviano: sul palco e dietro le quinte
by Libero Farnè
È estremamente opportuno tornare periodicamente ad analizzare le esperienze più recenti di musicisti di grande personalità del panorama jazzistico italiano. Uno di questi è dagli anni Ottanta Roberto Ottaviano, che esordì discograficamente nel 1983 con Aspects, un lavoro rivelatore, in solo e in sestetto, di una potenza espressiva e di una creatività sconvolgenti. Dopo ...

Ada Rave / Aaron Lumley / Onno Govaert: Bioluminus
by Mark Corroto
We can no longer refer to the music and creative Amsterdam scene with the title coined by author Kevin Whitehead as the New Dutch Swing. His 1998 book of the same name described the origins of the free jazz movement in The Netherlands and its now legendary masters such as Misha Mengelberg, Willem Breuker, Han Bennink, ...
Joe McPhee & Evan Parker: Sweet Nothings For Milford Graves
by John Sharpe
Two soprano saxophones loosely harmonize. They finish each other's lines, languidly intertwine, pause for air at the same moment. And simultaneously end on a dime. Musical twins. In the wrong hands such empathy might become soporific; but with two of the planet's foremost improvisers on hand in the persons of Evan Parker and Joe McPhee, instead ...
François Carrier/Alexander von Schlippenbach/John Edwards/Michel Lambert: Unwalled
by Mark Corroto
Don't you love it when a plan comes together? Even if the plan is totally improvised, as is that of Unwalled. The album is the first meeting between Canadian alto saxophonist François Carrier and German-born pianist Alexander von Schlippenbach.
