Shelton / Lonberg-Holm / Rosaly: Resounder

Read "Resounder" reviewed by Mark Corroto

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

Read "Ultraviolet" reviewed by Mark Corroto

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)

Read "October Music – 7 Compositions For Duet (Vol 1)" reviewed by Giuseppe Segala

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 ...

Steel Bridge Trio: Different Clocks

Read "Different Clocks" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

Heard at the imaginary music awards ceremony, “and the winner of the quietest and most accessible avant-garde recording of 2015 (dramatic pause), Different Clocks by Steel Bridge Trio." “Accepting the award for the trio is Jimmy Giuffre and Eric Dolphy. If there were such awards, and certainly there should be, Chicagoan Tim Daisy would ...

Fred Lonberg-Holm/Ken Vandermark: Resistance

Read "Resistance" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

When you consider all the musicians that have recorded duos with cellist Fred Lonberg-Holm, it sounds kind of like the SPAM Monty Python sketch comedy piece. “Yes, I'll have some Fred Lonberg-Holm and Ken Vandermark." What, you don't want Fred Lonberg-Holm and Axel Dörner, or Fred Lonberg-Holm and Mats Gustafsson, or Fred Lonberg-Holm and Peter Brotzmann, ...

Save the Date - Marzo 2015

Read "Save the Date - Marzo 2015" reviewed by Luca Canini

by Luca Canini

Marzo. Sbocciano i festival e le rassegne. Un mese di concerti per tutti i palati, non c'è che l'imbarazzo della scelta per chi ha fame di jazz. Quindi non perdiamo altro tempo e passiamo ai consigli. Che al solito premiano solo e soltanto il meglio del meglio. 8 Marzo--Milano. Intrigante e stimolante. Il ...

Tony Malaby: Scorpion Eater

Read "Scorpion Eater" reviewed by Giuseppe Segala

by Giuseppe Segala

Tubacello: un bel sincretismo lessicale per definire l'organico riunito da Tony Malaby in occasione di questo Scorpion Eater. L'accoppiata di tuba e violoncello (che con il termine tubacello diventano un unico strumento, fantastico) viene scelta dal sassofonista in sostituzione del contrabbasso e dà vita a una formazione di marcata duttilità, in grado di affrontare con efficacia ...

Dave Rempis: Zen Master

Read "Dave Rempis: Zen Master" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

The best application of philosophy to improvised music is the Chinese concept of “wu-wei." The best translation of this is “no trying." Many listeners have the false impression that it takes a sophisticated ear or at least years of listening to “get" improvised music. Actually, the opposite is true. The key is wu-wei or the art ...

Jazzfestival Saalfelden 2014

Read "Jazzfestival Saalfelden 2014" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero

by Vincenzo Roggero

Saalfelden 28-31.08.2014 A bocce ferme il 35° Jazzfestival di Saalfelden presentava un programma meno appariscente rispetto a precedenti edizioni, con meno densità di nomi altisonanti e meno eventi imperdibili. Ma forse proprio per la mancanza di aspettative clamorose, grazie alla solida direzione artistica tra certezze e curiosità e per quelle alchimie speciali che regolano ...
