Tony Malaby, Tania Gill & The Gathering
by Maurice Hogue
I decided to lay out for most of this last episode of 2021 and just let the music roll. There are a couple of new releases in the mix, one from Tony Malaby and a somewhat revamped Sabino and Toronto pianist Tania Gill's Disappearing Curiosities. Definitely check out the great singer, Dwight Trible, and his rendition ...

It Takes Two to Jazz: Part I
by Ludovico Granvassu
This week we focus on the art of the duo. A challenging format as one does neither have the complete freedom of a solo nor the support of a larger band. Yet, in the hands of the right artists, it can produce magical music. Happy listening! Ben Allison “Mondo Jazz Theme ...
Gianluigi Trovesi: dal solo alle orchestre
by Libero Farnè
Non era più giovanissimo Gianluigi Trovesi quando alla fine degli anni Settanta venne alla ribalta nel sestetto di Giorgio Gaslini, che nei concerti lo presentava come “l'improvvisatore che viene dalle montagne." Il sassofonista e clarinettista infatti è nato e cresciuto a Nembro, nella Valle Seriana, dove ha mosso i suoi primi passi musicali all'interno della banda ...
Wadada Leo Smith / Sabu Toyozumi: Burning Meditation
by John Sharpe
The Japanese concept of ma—a celebration of the space between things—is one to which trumpeter Wadada Leo Smith can readily subscribe. Space and silence are as important as sound in his conception. The weight given to the pauses between phrases stands out on this live recording from 1994 with Japanese drummer Sabu Toyozumi, which forms another ...
Euphorium_freakestra: Grande Casino

With this ten-piece aggregation assembled by pianist, musicologist Oliver Schwerdt and featuring legendary improvisers Barry Guy (bass) and Gunter 'Baby' Sommer (drums, perc), ideas, and perhaps life itself penetrate through unchartered peripheries of time and reason. This European ensemble toys with your psyche due to ...
Tibor Prettschnöder: The Largo And The Lame
by Mark Corroto
By now it is generally accepted that there is such a category as Germanic free improvisation. One separate from the Peter Brötzmann, Alexander von Schlippenbach, Günter Sommer, Peter Kowald, Manfred Schoof, Gerd Dudek, Albert Mangelsdorff, etc, etc. school of free jazz that machine-gunned its way into the European scene of the late 1960s. These new rebels ...
Trombone x 4 (x 4)
by Alberto Bazzurro
Che ci sia un trombone a guidare la cosiddetta front line di un gruppo jazz, ammettiamolo, non è merce poi così usuale. Ci fa quindi piacere, amando particolarmente il suono rotondo, pieno, evocativo dello strumento, legare uno con l'altro quattro album che praticano tale formula, incisi e pubblicati nel giro di pochi mesi, tra la fine ...
