Gianluigi Trovesi / Gianni Coscia: Frere Jacques - Round About Offenbach

Read "Frere Jacques - Round About Offenbach" reviewed by Hrayr Attarian


On their third duet album, the second dedicated to a single composer, clarinetist Gianluigi Trovesi and accordionist Gianni Coscia use original compositions as launching pads for their improvisational forays. Paying homage to Jacques Offenbach, Trovesi and Coscia preserve the often-overlooked German/French composer's humorous spirit, laced with satire in their interpretation of his work. ...

Gianluigi Trovesi / Gianni Coscia: Frere Jacques - Round About Offenbach

Read "Frere Jacques - Round About Offenbach" reviewed by John Kelman


Once again, more than half a decade has gone by since clarinetist GIanluigi Trovesi and accordionist Gianni Coscia last recorded. Round About Weill (ECM, 2005) represented a shift away from the broader compositional purview of In cerca di cibo (ECM, 2000), instead focusing more monolithically--albeit with the improvisational élan which has defined this partnership from its ...

Manfred Eicher: Through the Lens

Read "Manfred Eicher: Through the Lens" reviewed by John Kelman


It begins in silence, always silence. Since the 1990s, all ECM recordings begin with five seconds of silence, and so, too, do directors Norbert Wiedmer and Peter Guyer open their feature film on the heralded German record label and its enigmatic founder, Sounds and Silence: Travels with Manfred Eicher. As longtime ECM recording artist Keith Jarrett's ...

Francesco Turrisi: In Pursuit of Ecstasy

Read "Francesco Turrisi: In Pursuit of Ecstasy" reviewed by Ian Patterson


It has often been said that composer/harpsichordist/violinist Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) was the first jazz musician. His contrapuntal techniques and ideas on harmony, rhythm and form have influenced countless jazz musicians. Numerous are the jazz musicians who have also studied classical music, usually prior to shifting to jazz. Few, however, are those who have taken a ...

Read "Peitzer Grand Mit Vieren" reviewed by Andrey Henkin

Mario Schiano - Peter Kowald - Gianluigi Trovesi - Paul Lovens - Pino Minafra - Radu Malfatti: Benefit Concert to Repurchase the Pendulum for Mr. Foucault

Read "Benefit Concert to Repurchase the Pendulum for Mr. Foucault" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Corre sul filo della nostalgia, questo Benefit Concert. Un album che documenta un concerto tenuto a Roma nel lontano 1989. Nostalgia per Schiano e Kowald che ci hanno lasciato, che non ci sono più. E nostalgia per una musica che, anche lei, forse non c'è più: quel free jazz completamente destrutturato che già vent'anni fa (anzi, ...

Gianluigi Trovesi: All'Opera - Profumo di Violetta

Read "All'Opera - Profumo di Violetta" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Il “nostro” Ornette. Questo viene alla mente ascoltando l’ultima fatica di Gianluigi Trovesi, stavolta impegnato con la Filarmonica Mousiké (ben cinquantaquattro elementi diretti da Savino Acquaviva), e pensandolo nelle situazioni, spesso molto differenti tra loro, nelle quali ha registrato i precedenti lavori: gli splendidi CD con l’ottetto, da From G to G (Soul Note, 1992) a ...
