Mette Rasmussen/Chris Corsano: All The Ghosts At Once
by Mark Corroto
Today's hypothesis states that all free jazz improvisation demands the musicians maintain the music's vigor like a juggler, to all appearances, keeping all the balls in the air at once. Proof of this theory is the opening piece “Train Track" from alto saxophonist Mette Rasmussen and drummer Chris Corsano's release All The Ghosts At Once. The ...

Dre Hocevar Trio: Coding Of Evidentiality
by Mark Corroto
Given the title of drummer Dre Hocevar's recording, the question arises: can one classify or identify a system's disorder, i.e. entropy? The liner notes give us a hint. Laurence Donohue-Greene writes, this trio of Hocevar, pianist Bram De Looze and cellist St.Louis, “develop each improvisation compositionally and with tenacious unity." I suspect, when there is human ...

Joe McPhee: Solos : The Lost Tapes (1980 – 1981 – 1984)

Players who have immersed themselves in free improvisation, like Ken Vandermark, Mats Gustafsson, Peter Evans, Martin Kuchen, and Mikołaj Trzaska, learned the possibilities of creating a new music from, not thin air, but from listening. They model their approach after Joe McPhee. Born in ...
I 10 CD nel CD player di... Nicola Guazzaloca
by Vincenzo Roggero
01. Massimo De Mattia -Quartet Hypermodern (Rudi Records -2014). Un lavoro in cui le individualità emergono nitide ed autorevoli, ogni elemento è inserito nel processo con salda intenzione e responsabilità, con sottesa energia lungo un percorso timbricamente vario e stratificato, a snodarsi fra le geometrie evocate dal flauto di De Mattia nel pulsare di ...
Anthony Braxton Quartet: (Santa Cruz) 1991 1st Set
by Mark Corroto
Decoding the music of Anthony Braxton might be a lifetime's mission. With his symbol system compositions and grand unification theories, even the trained ear admits to perplexity and a certain ignorance. Braxton has never stopped, nor slowed to explain himself to listeners. There are moments of insights though, in his performances. One can glean his approach ...
