Niculin Janett Quartet Featuring Rich Perry: No Parking Any Time
by C. Michael Bailey
I was beginning to wonder if there were any “blowing sessions" recorded today that did not sound so blatantly contrived. From Berlin comes such a recording by Swiss alto saxophonist Niculin Janett and his quartet. No Parking Anytime features New York City tenor saxophonist Rich Perry, whose own recent Organique (Steeplechase, 2016), with Gary Versace (Hammond ...

Neuköllner Modelle: Sektion 1-2
by Mark Corroto
The finest free jazz, that which is played at the highest levels, is actually quite tuneful. Not that the musicians rely on riffs or licks, or traditional themes. It is simply that the music, like an Abstract Expressionist painting, converges to form a whole. Just as a novice art student or someone without any art history ...
Julie Sassoon: Fourtune
by Duncan Heining
Fourtune is British pianist-composer Julie Sassoon's first quartet recording. Sassoon's musical approach draws in equal measure on her classical training and on a love of jazz and improvised music. This marriage goes far beyond the translation of a pianistic technique from one musical area to another but becomes something far deeper and more powerfully emotionally moving ...

Damir Out Loud: Graduation Day
by Luigi Sforza
Armoniosamente bipolare, o se si preferisce crocevia di esperienze stilistiche musicali apparentemente distanti tra loro, Graduation Day rappresenta innanzitutto un progetto di sintesi tra due evidenti pulsioni creative, ovvero il cool jazz di Gil Evans -morbido, multitimbrico e corposo -e la musica balcanica. Tra queste due polarità, che Damir Bacikin (serbo di origine e berlinese di ...
Angelika Niescier, Florian Weber: NYC Five
by Stefano Merighi
Una bella pattuglia di ragazze sassofoniste sono maturate in questi ultimi anni. E accanto alle varie Matana Roberts, Ingrid Laubrock, Mette Rasmussen, Virginia Genta, si accomoda ora Angelika Niescier, musicista davvero straordinaria, impegnata sia artisticamente che socialmente. Polacca di nascita, tedesca di adozione (dirige il Winterjazz a Colonia), giramondo di vocazione (ha lavorato nella striscia di ...
Markus Stockhausen, Florian Weber: Alba
by Alberto Bazzurro
Un'eleganza un po' esangue e piuttosto ritorta su se stessa caratterizza questo album del duo formato da musicisti separati esattamente da vent'anni l'uno dall'altro (1957 per Stockhausen, 1977 per Weber). Il rilievo non deve suonare come una censura nei confronti del disco, capace anzi di ammaliare l'orecchio e gratificare lo spirito. Il problema è che fa ...
