Joëlle Léandre: A Woman's Work...

Read "A Woman's Work..." reviewed by Mark Corroto


How do you sum up the career of an improvising artist like Joëlle Léandre? Do you reissue a package of recordings from her 40 years of performance? That is probably not possible, given the multiple labels and the location and ownership of the masters. Besides, free improvisation, almost by definition, dissipates (or probably should dissipate) upon ...

Giovanni Venosta & Sonata Island: Nippon Eldorado Kabarett

Read "Nippon Eldorado Kabarett" reviewed by Neri Pollastri


Curioso album di un gruppo, Sonata Island di Giovanni Venosta, dedito a progetti eclettici (ha al suo attivo lavori sulla musica di Stockhausen, Mahler, Fred Frith...) e stavolta alle prese con la dissacrante musica rock messa a punto in Giappone negli anni Ottanta e Novanta da gruppi come Wha Ha Ha e After Dinner e da ...

Rova Channeling Coltrane: Electric Ascension

Read "Electric Ascension" reviewed by John Sharpe


John Coltrane's Ascension (Impulse, 1965) stands as a seminal moment in the development of modern jazz, presenting structured large group improvisation which renounced both the form and content of almost all previous models. It was never performed live, and this was one of the facts which initially captured the attention of the now venerable ROVA Saxophone ...

I 10 CD nel CD-Player di .... Paolo Angeli

Read "I 10 CD nel CD-Player di .... Paolo Angeli" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero


01. Chili Vanilla -Chili Vanilla (Dayladore Collective -2012). Freschezza dalla Norvegia: essenzialmente un trio che fa canzoni storte con un organico composto da tuba, batteria e voce. Mi colpisce l'essenzialità delle composizioni e la trasversalità. 02. United Vibrations -The Myth of the Golden Ratio (Ubiquiti Record -2016). Un capolavoro che sembra ...

Fred Frith Trio: Another Day in Fucking Paradise

Read "Another Day in Fucking Paradise" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


The album title may equate to what a disgruntled co-worker may utter at the office on a Monday morning. Yes, some of us have used this line, but master improviser, guitarist Fred Frith's prowess and boundless creativity is the antithesis to anything that may cause a semblance of drudgery. Jason Hoopes' bursting e-bass lines ...
