Eve Risser White Desert Orchestra: Les Deux Versants Se Regardent
by Phil Barnes
Space in jazz, in the musical rather than the science fiction sense, is a difficult thing to pull off effectively. Miles Davis may well have said “don't play what's there, play what's not there" but Mr Davis said a lot of things including “if you don't know what to play, play nothing." Its like talking quietly--if ...

Jeff Dayton-Johnson's 2015 Mixtape
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
The narrator of Jean-Jacques Schuhl's 2002 novel Ingrid Caven muses, “I like the connection, the splice, not the things themselves; what's between them, their rapport. Two ideas, images, the bridge between two harmonies for the jazz musician..." It's an interesting esthetic statement regarding jazz: that part of the music's appeal lies not in its components, but ...

Saalfelden 2015
by Vincenzo Roggero
Memorabile edizione la trentaseiesima del Saalfelden Jazz Festival. Forse il caldo più consono ai mari del sud che ad una località alpina ha sciolto anche gli animi più rigidi, ha favorito la libera circolazione delle idee, ha creato un clima di condivisione e stimolo artistico. Forse gli dei della musica hanno soffiato un vento benevolo sulle ...
Eve Risser: Des pas sur la neige
by Vincenzo Roggero
La formazione classica di Eve Risser si avverte dall'inizio alla fine di Des pas sur la neige; è come una sensazione, un piacevole ronzio che aleggia sull'incisione senza per questo connotarla univocamente e irrimediabilmente. Il controllo assoluto sullo strumento si traduce in codici linguistici non immediatamente fruibili, ma che abbisognano di una graduale immersione nel mondo ...
Sylvain Rifflet & Jon Irabagon: Perpetual Motion
by Hrayr Attarian
The composer, poet and instrument inventor Louis Thomas Hardin, alias Moondog remains one of the most celebrated and eccentric figures in the annals of modern music.

Roil: Raft of the Meadows
by John Sharpe
Established in 2007, Roil comprises three Australians from the Sydney jazz scene, sharing pianist Chris Abrahams with that other better known Antipodean combo The Necks. Like that last outfit Roil manifests as an egalitarian concern, continuing in the lineage trailblazed by Bill Evans in the 1960s via Howard Riley's trio with Barry Guy a decade later. ...
