Marilyn Crispell / Gerry Hemingway: Table Of Changes

Read "Table Of Changes" reviewed by John Sharpe


Although Table of Changes is only the third release from the pairing of pianist Marilyn Crispell and percussionist Gerry Hemingway, it comes relatively hot on the heels of Affinities (Intakt, 2011) which broke a long silence since Duo (Knitting Factory, 1989). The paucity of these occurrences belies an extensive shared tenure, both as part of reedman ...

Irene Schweizer, Han Bennink: Welcome Back

Read "Welcome Back" reviewed by Maurizio Zerbo


Correte ad acquistare questo strepitoso CD, se non lo avete ancora fatto. In questo progetto si ritrovano i risultati più inaspettati raggiunti dal jazz contemporaneo. Vi aleggia una gioiosa comunicativa, che si contraddistingue rispetto all'attuale produzione europea di stampo avanguardistico. A ciò si aggiungano ritmi ipnotici e danzanti che fanno di questo disco una rara avis. ...

Schlippenbach Trio: Features

Read "Features" reviewed by Maurizio Zerbo


Quindici brevi bozzetti testimoniano la libertà espressiva di tre menti culturalmente aperte quali sono quelle di Alexander von Schlippenbach, Evan Parker e Paul Lovens, protese verso l'ignoto. C'è tutto in questo CD: slancio, energia, volatile progettualità, elementi precipui di una musica materica che vola in alto verso forme astratte ed atonali. Gli esiti espressivi di questi ...

Ingrid Laubrock Anti-House: Roulette of the Cradle

Read "Roulette of the Cradle" reviewed by John Sharpe


The fact that Ingrid Laubrock's Anti-house is an established working band is borne out by the degree of trust the German saxophonist places in her world class cast of collaborators. But even though she doesn't put in an appearance until part way through the second track, her imprint is all over the outfit's third release, which ...

Ingrid Laubrock Anti-House: Roulette of the Cradle

Read "Roulette of the Cradle" reviewed by Stefano Merighi


Ingrid Laubrock è sicuramente un'ottima musicista. Lo ha ampiamente dimostrato sia come improvvisatrice negli innumerevoli gruppi di cui fa parte, sia come leader: con l'ottetto, con Sleepthief, fino a questo Anti-House, sicuramente il suo organico principale. Non facile però è dire quale sia la direzione prevalente della sua musica, la cui sovrabbondanza linguistica segnala un'ambizione lodevole ...

Fred Frith, Barry Guy: Backscatter Bright Blue

Read "Backscatter Bright Blue" reviewed by Vic Albani


Con la doverosa e ormai classica intraprendenza, l'intelligente Intakt elvetica ha chiamato due universi musicali distanti fra loro come quelli di Fred Frith e di Barry Guy nello studio di Willy Strehler per quella che potremmo sì definire una session d'improvvisazione ma che porta con sé anche un gradiente di creatività semplicemente straordinario. Quando c'è di ...

Mark Helias - Tony Malaby - Tom Rainey: The Signal Maker

Read "The Signal Maker" reviewed by Stefano Merighi


Mark Helias è persona cordiale, generosa, empatica. Un carattere aperto, bilanciato tuttavia da un rigore assoluto che caratterizza la sua attività di bandleader e di contrabbassista. Ricordiamo che il suo curriculum è aureo avendo suonato con maestri come Ed Blackwell e Dewey Redman, Anthony Braxton e Ray Anderson, garantendo una versatilità ed una affidabilità assolute.

Oliver Lake / William Parker: To Roy

Read "To Roy" reviewed by John Sharpe


Bassist William Parker has formed productive liaisons with some wonderfully expressive alto saxophone players in the past--Rob Brown and Jemeel Moondoc both spring to mind. But To Roy represents his first time on record with Oliver Lake, best known as a third of Trio 3 and a quarter of the World Saxophone Quartet. They recorded their ...

Marilyn Crispell -- Gerry Hemingway: Table Of Changes

Read "Table Of Changes" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


These distinguished artists performed together with pioneering saxophonist, composer Anthony Braxton's epic 80s ensembles amid other ensuing collaborations. Over time, drummer Gerry Hemingway and pianist Marilyn Crispell have gravitated towards the upper echelon of the so-called 'new jazz' outlook, as Table of Changes provides a glowing snapshot of their Europe 2013 tour. Moreover, the album extends ...
