Tomasz Stańko New York Quartet: December Avenue
by Giuseppe Segala
Sulla scia del precedente, intenso Wislawa, dedicato alla poetessa polacca Wislawa Szymborska, sempre realizzato insieme al New York Quartet, questo December Avenue sviluppa la medesima dimensione espressiva, intrisa di lirismo. Un quartetto che interpreta al meglio i percorsi di Tomasz Stanko, già delineati al tempo delle registrazioni con la formazione polacca dallo stesso organico strumentale che ...
Piotr Turkiewicz: Putting Wroclaw On The Jazz Map
by Ian Patterson
At just thirty seven years of age it's hard to believe that Piotr Turkiewicz has been pulling the strings of Jazztopad for almost a decade already. The festival, staged each November in the Polish city of Wroclaw, was already a few years old when Turkiewicz became Artistic Director in 2008, but under the canny stewardship of ...
Tomas Fujiwara: Triple Double
by Dan Bilawsky
The ninety seconds of scattershot guitar nicks that introduce “Diving For Quarters" can be seen as something of a trial by noodling.

Not big as in impenetrable, but circus tent big--assimilating all his experiences. From Betty Carter and Lionel Hampton to his long-standing tenure ...

by John Kelman
She may rarely perform live in this context, but Yelena Eckemoff has managed to build, over just seven years and a mammoth eleven releases--including her second release of 2017, In the Shadow of a Cloud--a loyal and growing following in the jazz world. It's all the more remarkable for a multi-talented expat Russian pianist who began ...

Il moto multiplo di Craig Taborn
by Giuseppe Segala
Prima di leggerne le parole precise ed esaurienti nell'intervista, è il caso di ricordare alcune cose di Craig Taborn, pianista quarantasettenne che si colloca ai massimi livelli della scena contemporanea. In primo luogo la sua profonda curiosità intellettuale, che lo porta a un intreccio di interessi nei confronti di forme diverse dell'espressione artistica e della ...
