Shelton / Lonberg-Holm / Rosaly: Resounder
by Mark Corroto
There is no connection whatsoever between the improvised electro-acoustic music of Resounder and Carl Stalling's musical accompaniment and his adaptations of music composed by Raymond Scott for Warner Brothers' Merrie Melodies and Looney Tunes cartoon. Except that, the music of Aram Shelton, Fred Lonberg-Holm, and Frank Rosaly evokes a sort of theatre of the mind. The ...
Nick Mazzarella Trio: Ultraviolet
by Mark Corroto
Nick Mazzarella's first trio recording Aviary in 2009, clocked in at just 30 minutes. Although brief, the compelling force of the saxophonist's presence signaled a new unblemished voice in jazz. He has gone on to become a strong presence in the Chicago jazz scene, performing with Ken Vandermark (Audio One & Chicago Reed Quartet), Rob Mazurek (Exploding ...
Tim Daisy: October Music – 7 Compositions For Duet (Vol 1)
by Giuseppe Segala
Nel suo libro Ein Fenster aus Jazz (Una finestra sul jazz), il compianto Joachim Ernst Berendt dedica un intero capitolo all'Arte del duo, sottolineando come in tale contesto ancora più che in altre occasioni la relazione umana intensa sia indispensabile. Il duo nel jazz mette in scena un dialogo più serrato, più complesso, più rischioso e ...
The Rempis Percussion Quartet: Cash And Carry
by John Sharpe
Ornette Coleman was one of the first to use two drummers in a smaller ensemble for his seminal double quartet Free Jazz (Atlantic, 1961). In doing so they established the template for dual interaction, as Ed Blackwell majored on drum patterns while Billy Higgins emphasized the cymbals. While the format has become much more widespread as ...

Anthony Braxton, Tomas Fujiwara, Tom Rainey: Trio (New Haven) 2013
by Giuseppe Segala
L'abbinamento spericolato di ance e batteria rappresenta uno dei motivi più penetranti del jazz contemporaneo e continua a essere praticato con pregnanza a abbondanza: se i lavori recenti di Roscoe Mitchell con Tyshawn Sorey e Mike Reed ne disegnano l'aspetto più metafisico e astratto, le numerose escursioni di Ken Vandermark con Paal Nilssen-Love tracciano percorsi audaci ...

Timothy Daisy: October Music (Vol. 1) 7 Compositions For Duet

Next he distinguished himself with fellow Chicago musicians in Dave Rempis' ...
Jason Roebke: Combination
by Eyal Hareuveni
Chicagoan double bassist Jason Roebke has developed a distinct sound of his own, intensely physical, audacious and highly rhythmical. He leads and plays in bands on both sides of the Atlantic, including the trans-Atlantic The Whammies dedicated to the music of Steve Lacy, and drummer Mike Reed's People, Places and Things. Roebke's ...
The Young Mothers: A Mothers Work Is Never Done
by Mark Corroto
Ingebrigt Håker Flaten reminds us that jazz is the musical equivalent of a dark star, a musical black hole, absorbing all musical energy and classifications. The Norwegian-born bassist-turned Austin, TX resident assembled a multi-genre sextet under the uncategorizable name The Young Mothers. Sure, let's not call this jazz, because it would alienate 99% of fans. But ...
