John Kelman's Best Releases of 2017
by John Kelman
For those who may have noticed, there have been no best of lists coming from yours truly since 2014; sadly, the chronic health problem that has reduced my previous writing pace to a crawl continues without much respite. My best of the year lists have always been predicated upon having reviewed the releases chosen, and with ...
Django Bates: The Study of Touch
by Vincenzo Roggero
Folletto imprevedibile e difficilmente etichettabile della scena creativa britannica -salta con disinvoltura da lavori orchestrali al piano solo, da composizioni per il teatro e per il cinema a commissioni di musica sinfonica, da collaborazioni con Tim Berne e Bill Bruford a quelle con George Russell e George Gruntz -Django Bates è stato elemento propulsivo fondamentale nella ...
Tom Guarna: The Wishing Stones
by John Kelman
An unfortunate reality for too many musicians--even those who are well-known--is that most of their audiences are aware of but a portion of their true work...their fullest capabilities. Recordings only tell part of the story, since artists often tour with groups that are never documented. And even those tours, for those fortunate enough to experience them, ...
Anouar Brahem: Blue Maqams
by Mike Jurkovic
Oud-master Anouar Brahem's instantly intoxicating, Blue Maqams, caps off a truly remarkable year for ECM Records. Just think, the label's release schedule this year included essential recordings by Benedikt Jahnel Trio's The Invariant, Django Bates' breakthrough The Study of Touch, Colin Vallon Trio's Danse, Vijay Iyer Sextet's Far From Over, and Gary Peacock's Tangents, all of ...
Culture Clubs: A History of the U.S. Jazz Clubs, Part II: New York
by Karl Ackermann
Jazz didn't abandon Chicago but its further development only began to take on a distinct personality in the 1960s. By the late 1920s, the next phase of the jazz scene had shifted from Chicago to New York though, initially, there was no red carpet rolled out. As jazz bands made their way to New York they ...
Anouar Brahem: Blue Maqams
by John Kelman
Following an unusually long, five-year gap between 2009's low register-driven The Astounding Eyes of Rita and 2014's particularly ambitious orchestral collaboration, Souvenance, Tunisian oudist Anouar Brahem returns with Blue Maqams, another game-changing release on ECM Records. Change--or, in some cases, natural evolution--has never been hard to find on Brahem's previous nine albums for the label, the ...
Anouar Brahem: Blue Maqams
by Mario Calvitti
Fin dal suo disco d'esordio (Barzakh del 1991, pubblicato, come tutti i successivi lavori, dalla ECM e preceduto solo da alcune cassette autoprodotte) il compositore e suonatore di oud tunisino Anouar Brahem è stato tra i principali esponenti di una musica a cavallo tra Medio Oriente e Occidente, cercando una fusione tra musica araba, improvvisazione jazzistica ...
Philipp Gerschlauer & David Fiuczynski: Mikrojazz!: Neue Expressionistische Musik
by Doug Collette
Any musiclover who enjoys the sensation of immersion in a maelstrom of sound will no doubt relish Mikrojazz, especially those familiar with the work of guitarist Dave Fiuczynski. But even listeners who fear the abstract somewhat should find much to savor here because this five-piece band, including 'The Fuze" and co-led with Philipp Gershlauer, moves in ...
Piotr Turkiewicz: Putting Wroclaw On The Jazz Map
by Ian Patterson
At just thirty seven years of age it's hard to believe that Piotr Turkiewicz has been pulling the strings of Jazztopad for almost a decade already. The festival, staged each November in the Polish city of Wroclaw, was already a few years old when Turkiewicz became Artistic Director in 2008, but under the canny stewardship of ...
