Hendrik Lasure, Manolo Cabras, Mathieu Calleja: Orange Moon
by Neri Pollastri
Formazione paritetica nata in Belgio, Orange Moon unisce l'esperienza del contrabbassista italiano Manolo Cabras e del batterista francese Mathieu Calleja con la freschezza del giovanissimo pianista belga Hendrik Lasure, inoltrandosi con libertà nell'esplorazione del piano trio. Il lavoro, poco più di quaranta minuti, si compone di undici brani, composti due a testa (uno in ...
Zakir Hussain: Making Music, Part 2-2
by Ian Patterson
Part 1 | Part 2 It seemed inevitable that Zakir Hussain would collaborate with jazz musicians as the '70s unfolded. Jazz had been sidling up to Indian classical music gradually since the early '60s. In 1962, Gary Peacock and Bud Shank played on Ravi Shankar's album Improvisations (World Pacific), although this was ...
Albert Ayler: New York Eye and Ear Control Revisited
by Mark Corroto
The backstory of New York Ear and Eye Control is a significant factor in the music and the direction free jazz took in the 1960s. Filmmaker Michael Snow commissioned Albert Ayler's trio with bassist Gary Peacock and drummer Sunny Murray to record a thirty-minute soundtrack for a movie, “Walking Woman," he had yet to film. As ...
Albert Ayler: New York Eye And Ear Control Revisited
by Chris May
The development of so-called free jazz in New York during the first half of the 1960s was topped and tailed by three landmark recordings: Ornette Coleman's Free Jazz (Atlantic, 1961), John Coltrane's Ascension (Impulse, 1966) and Albert Ayler's New York Eye And Ear Control (ESP, 1966). Of the three discs, only New York Eye And Ear ...
Emilia Vancini, Augusto Pirodda: And If You Fall, You Fall
by Neri Pollastri
Duetto tra musicisti nostrani che ormai da tempo vivono all'estero, questo breve album—mezz'ora scarsa di musica—è un fulgido esempio di come si possa ancora trattare del materiale tradizionale donandogli freschezza e originalità. Siamo infatti di fronte a un “semplice" duo tra voce femminile e pianoforte all'opera su un repertorio di notissimi standard; e tuttavia i protagonisti, ...
Albert Ayler Quartet with Don Cherry: European Recordings Autumn 1964 Revisited
by Chris May
Many attempts have been made to locate the source of tenor saxophonist Albert Ayler's muse in American history and culture. Among the less outlandish suggestions are the field hollers of slaves toiling on Southern plantations and the Pentecostal church's tradition of talking in tongues. Given the importance Ayler's parents placed on him attending church as a ...
L'autorevole inventiva di Salvatore Maiore
by Angelo Leonardi
Contrabbassista, violoncellista e compositore tra i più attivi in Italia, Salvatore Maiore ha evidenziato -nelle molte collaborazioni e nei progetti personali-una cifra espressiva particolarmente ricercata, dove il ruolo dei suoi strumenti assume un aspetto propositivo, in una chiara esaltazione delle forme melodiche e timbriche. Di recente ha pubblicato un progetto sulle musiche di Charles Mingus interpretate ...

Cycle: Jin-Brebl-Concert
by Alberto Bazzurro
Parafrasando, titolo e copertina, un celeberrimo doppio album del '71 del quartetto Circle di Anthony Braxton, Chick Corea, Dave Holland e Barry Altschul, il quintetto protagonista di questo lavoro batte in realtà strade abbastanza autonome, incasellando in sei brani originali (di cui due impro collettive) Vignette di Gary Peacock e, icona evidentemente inevitabile, quel Nefertiti che ...
