Eva Slongo: Souffle
by Ian Patterson
Improvisation was once a norm for classical musicians, and not just for geniuses such as Bach, Mozart, Liszt or Paganini. That freedom has, to a very large degree, been curtailed by classical music institutions, along with composition. On Souffle, her second album following Inspirations (Unit Records, 2016), Swiss-born, Paris-based violinist Eva Slongo breaks a few metaphorical ...

Stéphane Spira, Giovanni Mirabassi: Improkofiev
by Thomas Fletcher
Dwelling on previous influences and past concepts to construct a fresh approach to an idea is a common approach in jazz.

Introduced to Prokofiev around 2005 by a Turkish jazz presenter and radio host, Stéphane Spira ...
Spirabassi: Improkofiev
by Jack Bowers
There haven't been many jazz quartets whose front line consists solely of a soprano saxophone (Wayne Shorter's is the only one that springs readily to mind). The cleverly named Spirabassi pairs French-born soprano saxophonist Stephane Spira with Italian-bred pianist Giovanni Mirabassi in a group whose other members are bassist Steve Wood and a second Frenchman, drummer ...
Giovanni Mirabassi Trio: Summer's Gone
