Brandon Lopez, Ingrid Laubrock and Tom Rainey: No Es La Playa
by Troy Dostert
Saxophonist Ingrid Laubrock and drummer Tom Rainey have made dozens of recordings together, both as a duo and with countless others. But when they teamed up with bassist Brandon Lopez for the first time in 2017, for a live show at Barbès in Brooklyn, all three players recognized that there was something special about their collective ...
Omri Ziegele Where's Africa: That Hat
by Dan McClenaghan
Omri Ziegele, the Zürich-based saxophonist, makes music with his big band Billiger Bauer and in duo format with pianist Irene Schweizer, and also with his smaller groups, Noisy Minority and Where's Africa. He has established himself as a major force in the Zürich jazz scene and as a major artist for Intakt Records. That Hat, his ...
Kappeler / Zumthor: Herd
by John Sharpe
Swiss duo pianist Vera Kappeler and percussionist Peter Conradin Zumthor deliver a haunting program of eleven simple but effective mood pieces. They share a spare aesthetic which marries elements of minimalism, folk, jazz and circus music into an idiosyncratic, but by no means inaccessible, whole. While their previous outing together, Babylon-Suite (ECM, 2014), was inspired by ...
Angelika Niescier & Alexander Hawkins: Soul In Plain Sight
by John Sharpe
Some of pianist British Alexander Hawkins' most potent outings have been in the intimate duo setting. Think, for example, of Leaps In Leicester (Clean Feed, 2016) with Evan Parker or Shards And Constellations (Intakt, 2020) with cellist Tomeka Reid. To that list can be added this richly-detailed double act with the Polish-born, German-resident saxophonist Angelika Niescier. ...
Angelika Niescier: Soul In Plain Sight
by Glenn Astarita
Saxophonist Angelika Niescier (Poland) and pianist Alexander Hawkins (UK) share mutual admiration amid a meeting at the Berlin Jazz Fest. As we fast forward to this duet outing by these increasingly prominent Euro improvisers who recast their respective goods here, think of Language A communicating with Language B, simply using the emotive aspects and non-verbal interactions ...
Alexander Hawkins / Mirror Canon: Break A Vase
by Mark Corroto
Pianist and composer Alexander Hawkins sequences the ten tracks of Break A Vase in a seemingly counterintuitive manner. The title track, which is taken from West Indian poet Derek Walcott's Nobel Prize acceptance speech, is not heard until track six; it is a solo piano performance which emulates Walcott's words, “Break a vase, and the love ...
Tim Berne / Gregg Belisle: Mars
by Dan McClenaghan
Mars inspires. That blood-red eye orbiting the sun this side of Jupiter served as a muse for Gustav Holtz in the “Mars" portion of his Planets Suite (1916); H.G Wells conjured giant three-legged machines from Mars, wielding death rays and attempting to destroy the Earth; Edgar Rice Burroughs sent John Carter to Barsoom (Mars), where the ...
