Aca Seca Trio: Trino
by Alberto Bazzurro
A vent'anni dalla sua costituzione (1998, Università de la Plata, dove i tre musicisti erano studenti), il trio argentino Aca Seca esce con un nuovo album, come sempre infarcito di Latino-America--per dirla con Gato Barbieri--della più variegata acqua: la madre patria, ma anche Brasile e Uruguay, senza disdegnare climi più schiettamente montani (quindi andini), pur non ...

Ivo Perelman Makes It Rain
by Mark Corroto

Likewise, most musicians release one album every year or two, but Perelman has averaged seven titles per year for the last seven years. His 2017 Leo Records output is thirteen (fourteen, ...
