Eve Risser Red Desert Orchestra: Eurythmia
by Mark Corroto
Welcome to the jungle. Composer, pianist, and orchestra leader Eve Risser sends us greetings from the wilds. It is this forest she has been exploring with European and West African musicians. Her expedition is a hypnotic journey dense with percussive attacks and mesmeric states. The twelve piece Red Desert Orchestra is an extension of ...
Jamaaladeen Tacuma, Eve Risser, Shoko Igarashi, Antonio Sanchez & More New Releases
by Ludovico Granvassu
Inspired by Leo Sidran's latest single, “There Was a Fire," this week we look into various threads of memory--making (or memory--keeping) that can be found in projects that bring together various cultural traditions (West-African or Cuban, Mitteleuropean or Japanese), bring new light to old repertoires, pay tribute to earlier composers or music-genres. Happy listening! ...

Lisa Ullén, Elsa Bergman, Anna Lund: Space
by John Sharpe
Although pianist Lisa Ullén, bassist Elsa Bergman and drummer Anna Lund supply a formidable bottom end to the surging horn polyphony of Anna Högberg's Attack, on Space they find an alternative means to convey emotion and rapport through collective improvisation.

Rinascita di primavera: una panoramica sui prossimi festival
by Libero Farnè
Alla fine di aprile finalmente il via è arrivato. Gli organizzatori di festival e rassegne da tempo si erano rimboccati le maniche in fiduciosa attesa della ripartenza, affrontando gradualmente tutti gli aspetti organizzativi, economici, promozionali relativi alla loro programmazione. Sono stati sei i mesi di silenzio, di sosta forzata della musica dal vivo. Gli ultimi concerti ...
Moers Festival Interviews: Julien Desprez
by Martin Longley
It might seem that the Parisian guitarist Julien Desprez has made a recent storming of the jazz and improvisation scenes. He did make lightning moves and sounds at Jazzfest Berlin and the Moers Festival in 2018 and '19, but Desprez was active nearly a decade ago—though enjoying a much lower profile. He even toured the UK ...
Naïssam Jalal: Un autre monde
by Henning Bolte
Some may see the flute as an odd one out in jazz. For France that certainly does not apply. France has Michel Edelin from the older generation and, for example, Magic Malik, Eve Risser, Sylvaine Hélary and Naïssam Jalal from the younger. A flautist needs good sonic allies to embed flute sounds in and/or ...
