Florian Weber: Biosphere

Read "Biosphere" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Il pianista Florian Weber dà alle stampe, insieme al suo quartetto, un lavoro dalle diverse sfaccettature stilistiche e formali.

Biosphere passa difatti da una serie di originali molto introspettivi e dagli andamenti irregolari, come le iniziali “Filaments" e “Casimir Effect" dalle ...

Simin Tander: Softly, As In A Morning Dew

Read "Simin Tander: Softly, As In A Morning Dew" reviewed by Ian Patterson


For many people around the world, the word jazz evokes a singer in a bar, club, restaurant or hotel, reworking the standards of yore. Vocal jazz has such a high profile, relatively speaking, because radio stations and TV stations largely balk at the idea of instrumental music, and, easy listening-as a lot of vocal jazz tends ...

Read "Minsarah" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Un bel trio, dalle solide radici impiantate nella tradizione della formazione e giustamente paritetico negli equilibri, che proprio per questo ha preso a prestito il proprio nome - Minsarah, termine ebraico - da un prisma usato in ottica per riflettere in modo peculiare la luce che lo attraversa.

They recorded Minsarah in Germany, on which youth, vigor and invention come to fruition. The title of this release refers to a prism, where translucent glass is used to separate ...
