Kostcirkeln: Kostcirkeln

by AAJ Italy Staff
Hanno coraggio da vendere i Kostcirkeln. Direte: perché? Presto detto. Iniziamo dal nome: quasi indigesto e/o non facile da pronunciare. Passiamo per la line up, davvero insolita, non solo per il numero (dieci elementi) ma anche per le timbriche (dall’ukulele all’eufonium; dall’hammond alle chitarre e a una sezione di ottoni). Per finire, cantano in danese. Di ...
Spring: Spring

by Eyal Hareuveni
The self-titled debut of the Danish quartet Spring reflects its label/musicians' collective credo: the platform for a young generation of Danish jazz musicians to present their personal statements and opinionated perspectives about the state of jazz today. And though Spring states that its compositions are inspired by free jazz, you can find in this fine recording ...

Spring: Spring

by AAJ Italy Staff
Ennesimo tassello del mosaico che racchiude la via europea alla libera improvvisazione, Spring è un piccolo gioiello (42 minuti scarsi), di raffinatezza, di rigore formale, di fervida inventiva, di nordico aplomb. A licenziarlo è ILK Music, etichetta indipendente nata nel 2001 a Copenhagen per dar voce all’effervescente scena creativa che iniziava proprio all’ora ad incendiare (musicalmente ...
Paul Bley - Kresten Osgood: Florida

by AAJ Italy Staff
Basterebbe un solo ascolto di “Darkness”, la prima traccia, per lasciare senza fiato chiunque decida di avvicinarsi al presente lavoro: due minuti e mezzo sospesi tra silenzio ed emozione, un autentico distillato di sobrietà, commozione e inventiva. Chi segue Paul Bley fin dai tempi del leggendario Open to Love (anno di grazia 1972), sa benissimo a ...
ILK Music

by Elliott Simon
Jazz in Denmark dates back to the early '20s and the country's freedom, social egalitarianism and support of the arts has attracted generations of musicians to resettle in its artistic center, Copenhagen. Denmark itself, with a population that is a little more than half that of NYC, has also produced jazz musicians of international stature in ...
Paul Bley / Kresten Osgood: Florida

by Troy Collins
"Without Paul Bley, there would be no Keith Jarrett" is conventional jazz wisdom perhaps, but worth repeating. Bley's expansive and unfettered approach to the keyboard (acoustic and electric) has provided a viable alternative for generations of artists seeking a creative path beyond the kinetic tendencies of Bley's principle peer, Cecil Taylor. Bley, now 75, ...

Tigra NegraPierre Dorge and the New Jungle OrchestraIlk Music2007Pierre Dørge has what seems like a magical ability - he can re-imagine and rethink the way that music is voiced thus creating entire new worlds out of worlds we think we know. He can take an Ellington standard or ...
