Francesco Cafiso: 4out

Read "4out" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Sette brani, tre dei quali autografi, compresa l'inedita “Bach's Flower," compongono 4out, il nuovo capitolo della già corposa storia artistica di Francesco Cafiso. Il talento siciliano - classe 1989 - si distingue, oltre che per la bontà tecnica oramai certificata, per l'intensità espressiva degli interventi. È lirico e sensuale nella sua “Enigmatic Night," funambolico in “Just ...

Francesco Cafiso Quartet: Angelica

Read "Angelica" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


Angelica claims a spot as a superior quartet set--alto saxophone and a rhythm section--right at the very beginning, not with the Duke Ellington-penned title tune, but with a Billy Strayhorn gem, “A Flower is a Lovesome Thing." Italian saxophonist and jazz prodigy, Francesco Cafiso--just nineteen years old at the time this music was laid down--ignores the ...

Francesco Cafiso: Angelica

Read "Angelica" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Angelica, registrato in studio a New York nel settembre 2008, conferma in gran parte le impressioni tratte dalle recenti apparizioni concertistiche del contraltista siciliano, ossia che appare maturato sotto diversi aspetti.

Francesco Cafiso: Portrait in Black and White

Read "Portrait in Black and White" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


In un'Italia sempre più vecchia e poco incline a far spazio ai giovani, un talento precoce come Francesco Cafiso ha suscitato sorpresa, attenzione (soprattutto dai dai mass media, pronti a etichettare il giovane prodigio di turno) e diffusi riconoscimenti dal pubblico e dalla critica. Non sono mancati atteggiamenti di diffidenza, accentuati dal patronage di Wynton Marsalis, ...
