Henry Threadgill Zooid: Tomorrow Sunny / The Revelry, Spp
by AAJ Italy Staff
Non dovrebbe essere una sorpresa per nessuno sentir dire che Henry Threadgill è da almeno venticinque anni (bypassando la nodale esperienza collettiva di Air, quindi) una delle figure-guida del jazz internazionale, seppur meno reclamizzata di altre, a loro volta di indiscutibile statura, ma magari un po' più inclini a lisciare il pelo all'uditorio. Questo nuovo lavoro ...
Henry Threadgill Zooid: This Brings Us to Volume II
by AAJ Italy Staff
Che Henry Threadgill sia uno dei compositori più originali e significativi della musica del nostro tempo non lo si scopre adesso e non lo si scopre necessariamente con questo disco [ma qualsiasi punto di approdo al suo mondo è estremamente interessante in una carriera dal segno formale così importante]: dagli inizi degli anni Settanta, attraverso le ...
