Izumi Kimura / Barry Guy / Gerry Hemingway: Six Hands Open As One

by John Sharpe
Although dating back to at least Aesop's fables written in 500 BC, the saying that you can know someone by the company they keep remains as true as ever. While Irish-based Japanese pianist Izumi Kimura is the nominal leader, the egalitarian trio on Six Hands Open As One finds her in illustrious company. ...
WHO Trio: Live At Jazz Festival Willisau 2023

by Vincenzo Roggero
Ci sono molti modi per affrontare/reinterpretare standard e songs, recitano le accurate note di copertina, ma affrontare Duke Ellington richiede uno step ulteriore, pena lo scivolare nel deja vu, nel già sentito, tra stereotipi o stravolgimenti fuori luogo. WHO Trio, formazione che da oltre venticinque anni scandaglia i meandri della libera improvvisazione e dei suoi legami ...

That's sort of what this episode of One Man's Jazz turned out to be--all over the place in terms of style, tempos, musical variations and origins in the albums debuting. For instance, the Southeast Asian ...
Izumi Kimura, Barry Guy, Gerry Hemingway: Six Hands Open As One

by Ian Patterson
It should come as no surprise that three of contemporary music's great improvisers should obliterate the boundaries between composed and improvised music. This is the second collaboration between pianist Izumi Kimura, double bassist Barry Guy and drummer/percussionist Gerry Hemingway following Illuminated Silence (Fundacja Sluchaj, 2019), a visceral live document where improvisation played out within conceptual compositional ...
WHO Trio: Live At Jazz Festival Willisau 2023

by Chris May
This jewel of an album was released just too late for inclusion in AAJ's Best Jazz Albums of 2024: All-Star Break Edition, where contributors were invited to name their three best albums released during the first half of the year (the article can be read here). But five gets you ten that it will be included ...
