David S. Ware/Matthew Shipp: Live in Sant'Anna Arresi 2004
by Mark Corroto
In every mystical film we see, like A Sea Of Trees and A Dog's Purpose or book we read--A Sudden Light by Garth Stein or Life After Life by Kate Atkinson, the departed find a way to communicate with the living. As humans, we desire this experience. Fortunately, music affords us this opportunity at just about ...
Ivo Perelman: The Art of the Improv Trio Volume 1
by Glenn Astarita
Tenor saxophonist Ivo Perelman's voluminous discography gets another boost with six concurrent trio releases, titled The Art of the Improv Trio Volumes 1 through 6. It's not surprising since the artist has become one of the more prolific jazz improvisers spanning the past several decades. Thus, Volume 1 launches the festivities with Karl Berger laying down ...
Things We Like: Ottobre 2016
by AAJ Staff
Finito il mese di ottobre, riprendiamo la vecchia rubrica “Things We Like," dove, un po' per passione e un po' per gioco, descriviamo le cose (musicali e non) che ci rimarranno impresse del mese appena trascorso. Alberto Bazzurro Ottobre, mese pre-referendario per eccellenza (non quel referendum...), si porta generalmente appresso una caterva ...
Whit Dickey/Kirk Knuffke: Fierce Silence
by Mark Corroto
The fitness instructor kept yelling, “feel the burn, feel the burn." After an hour of aerobic exercise, that was not a difficult task. A much easier and painless way to experience the same fire is to listen to just one track of Fierce Silence, a collection of improvised duos between drummer Whit Dickey and cornetist Kirk ...
Dominic Duval: Follow Your Melody
by Maxim Micheliov
In memory of Dominic Duval: 1945-2016. This article was first published in October 2010. Bassist Dominic Duval is a mystery to many—even to those interested in free music. Seemingly emerging out of nowhere in the mid-1990s, over the course of 15 years he has built a formidable discography, firmly establishing him as one of ...
Merzbow/Keiji Haino/Balazs Pandi: An Untroublesome Defencelessness
by Mark Corroto
The often repeated refrain to a complaint about music is, “If it's too loud, then you're too old," doesn't apply to An Untroublesome Defencelessness by Merzbow, Keiji Haino, and Balázs Pándi. You probably should just agree, it is too loud. With any Merzbow record, it just seems to never gets old. Of late, Merzbow's, ...
Ivo Perelman: Breaking Point
by Glenn Astarita
Tenor saxophonist Ivo Perelman usually releases albums in waves. Thus, Breaking Point is one of five concurrent productions issued on UK-based Leo Records, and offers the listener a kaleidoscopic glimpse of various ensemble lineups. Over the years Perelman has attained a comfort zone and noticeable synergy with the artists' performing on this outing, as the saga ...
Five By Five - More Love From Ivo Perelman
by Mark Corroto
2015 saw six releases by tenor saxophonist Ivo Perelman. It's early in 2016, and we already have five new releases. At this pace, one can only hope for five more. Certainly, noting the combinations of players presented here and the high level of improvisation, there could easily be ten more sessions with ten different permutations. Or, ...
Matthew Shipp/Michael Bisio: Live in Seattle
by Mark Corroto
The Italian renaissance sculptor, painter, architect, poet, and scientist Michelangelo di Lodovico is often quoted, when referring to his 17-foot sculpted masterpiece David, “every block of stone has a statue inside it and it is the task of the sculptor to discover it." The same thought comes to mind when two musical sculptors chip away at ...
Ivo Perelman: Villa Lobos Suite
by Maurizio Zerbo
L'arte del depistaggio, secondo un sax e due viole. Si potrebbe definire così questo avventuroso CD, che già nel titolo tende a spiazzare l'ascoltatore. Questa inusuale disposizione timbrica dà luogo ad un percorso destrutturante, che peraltro non prevede titoli per le composizioni proposte. In primo piano l'improvvisazione atematica con libere cellule melodiche, che ...
