Steel Bridge Trio: Different Clocks
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
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
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
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

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 ...
Party Knüllers: Was Something Lost in Translation?
by John Eyles
The duo Party Knüllers is a transatlantic collaboration between Chicago's own Fred Lonberg-Holm on cello & electronics and Norway's Ståle Liavik Solberg on drums & percussion. The two played together in a quartet, also including clarinetist Frode Gjerstad and vocalist Stine Janvin Motland, on VC/DC (Hispid, 2011), the inaugural release of the label that now releases ...
Jazzfestival Saalfelden 2014
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 ...
The Vocal Art of Norwegian Stine Janvin Motland
by Eyal Hareuveni
Norwegian vocal artist Stine Janvin Motland is known for highly original, extended vocal techniques. Her range and imagination mark new frontiers for the natural acoustics of the human voice. Motland previously recorded with drummer Ståle Liavik Solberg in MotSol, and with he and local sax hero Frode Gjerstad, plus American cellist Fred Lonberg-Holm in the quartet ...
Party Knüllers meets Jim Baker: Four Images of Wank
by Eyal Hareuveni
The duo Party Knüllers--Chicagoan cellist and electronics player Fred Lonberg-Holm and Norwegian drummer Ståle Liavik Solberg--wanted to intensify its already dense mix of sounds and added Lonberg-Holm's frequent comrade, synth player Jim Baker. The trio did a short tour in the United States before recording recording Four Images of Wank in the studio.
Erb/Lonberg-Holm/Jackson/Reid: Duope
by Giuseppe Segala
Fred Lonberg-Holm e Christoph Erb avevano già registrato in duo nel 2011 per l'interessante etichetta svizzera Veto Records/Exchange, gestita dallo stesso Erb, il CD Screw and Straw: ora la formula che abbinava violoncello e clarinetto basso (in quel caso anche sax tenore) viene semplicemente raddoppiata, con l'inserimento di Keefe Jackson ai clarinetti basso e contrabbasso, e ...
