Jan Garbarek Group: Dresden - In Concert
by AAJ Italy Staff
Dopo Egberto Gismonti, un altro degli artisti di punta ECM interrompe un lungo silenzio discografico: Dresden, il nuovo CD di Jan Garbarek, arriva sei anni dopo In Praise of Dreams, ma ne sono passati ben undici dal precedente lavoro col gruppo, il doppio Rites. In questi anni Garbarek ha comunque continuato l'attività concertistica in modo abbastanza ...
Mike Mainieri: Man Behind Bars
by John Kelman
It's hard to imagine vibraphonist Mike Mainieri in his seventies. Not only does he look and sound like a man 10 years (or more) his junior, but a quick look at the projects he's been involved in over the past few years sound like anything but a septuagenarian resting on his not inconsiderable laurels.
Hakon Kornstad: Dwell Time
by A. Henkin
32-year-old Norwegian saxophonist Håkon Kornstad continues to skirt the competing modern Scandinavian jazz aesthetics of Jan Garbarek and Mats Gustafsson. In 2008 he participated in the stunning Elise (Compuctio, 2008), a delicate acoustic duo exploration with bassist and countryman Ingebrigt Håker Flaten. Kornstad's Dwell Time is, in many ways, a companion piece to that disc in ...

Ralph Towner / Paolo Fresu: Chiaroscuro
by David McLean
Continuing his long and fruitful relationship with Manfred Eicher's ECM Records--yielding a slew of successful solo records and concerts, acclaimed group work with Oregon and Solstice (also featuring Jan Garbarek), and duo work with John Abercrombie, Gary Peacock and Gary Burton--guitarist/pianist Ralph Towner has become something of an icon for the German label. Chiaroscuro marks another ...
Stunt Records: Re/Defining Mainstream
by Jakob Baekgaard
In Denmark, Stunt Records is the jazz label which appeals to the widest audience. The music it releases could be characterised as mainstream jazz, but it doesn't have the negative connotations that sometimes go with the term. It simply means that the label knows how to combine adventurousness and accessibility. When it comes to genre, the ...
John Moulder: Bifrost
by John Kelman
A longtime member of ex-Pat Metheny Group drummer Paul Wertico's trio, enough has already been written about John Moulder's double life as jazz guitarist and ordained priest. Bifröst is Moulder's follow-up to the ambitious and eclectic Trinity (Origin, 2006), where the guitarist's spirituality became a touchstone for music ranging from the ethereal to the grounded, and ...
Take Five With Billy Carrion, Jr.
by AAJ Staff
Meet Billy Carrion Jr: Billy Carrion Jr started on the alto saxophone at 9 years old. Music of all kinds was always playing at Billy's home by his salsa singing father, who has an amazing career of his own. After being taught how to read, write, and make a sound out of the horn, ...
The State of ECM Records 2009: Steve Kuhn, Jan Garbarek and Thomas Zehetmair
by C. Michael Bailey
Its 40th anniversary year, 2009, has been a good one for Manfred Eicher's Edition of Contemporary Music Company. ECM was selected the Best Classical Label by Gramophone magazine. If that wasn't enough, ECM was selected Jazz Label of the Year and Manfred Eicher, Producer of the Year by Downbeat magazine. No record label since the Blue ...
