Peter Evans - Nate Wooley - Jim Black - Paul Lytton: Trumpets and Drums Live in Ljubljana
by Vincenzo Roggero
Due trombe, due batterie. Formazione perlomeno insolita, potenzialmente esplosiva sia ritmicamente che timbricamente, dalle limitate possibilità combinatorie, con un'energia che l'esibizione live dovrebbe liberare in quantità industriali. Ma il disco registrato a Lubiana nel giugno 2012--quello nella capitale slovena è festival tra i più stimolanti, propositivi e meglio organizzati del Vecchio Continente--non va in questa direzione, ...
Endangered Blood: Work Your Magic
by AAJ Staff
Nato come gruppo per sostenere le spese mediche del collega Andrew D'Angelo, il quartetto Endangered Blood si è poi rivelato uno dei progetti più convincenti della premiata ditta Chris Speed & Jim Black, qui affiancati dal basso di Trevor Dunn e dal sax contralto e clarinetto basso di Oscar Noriega, musicista che si sta conquistando di ...
David Krakauer: The Big Picture Featuring David Krakauer
by Glenn Astarita
It should come as no surprise that jazz musicians often spin some newfangled slants on compositions culled from Broadway theatrics and film. Other than renowned clarinetist David Krakauer's solo excursions for various record labels, his longtime affiliation with composer, saxophonist John Zorn, for a host of jazz- klezmer, and outside-the-box undertakings, bring quite a bit to ...

Memories in Motian
by Zeno De Rossi
Soon after hearing about Paul Motian's passing (November 22, 2011) I felt the urge to delve (again) into his music. Later on, inspired by a moving writing by Ellery Eskelin (published on his website and reproduced below, by his kind permission), I thought it would have been interesting to collect brief memories from ...
John Escreet: Sabotage and Celebration
by Mark Corroto
The music of composer and pianist John Escreet is a profound discovery. Each of his releases has been a revelation and an opportunity to scrutinize a major talent in the midst of his creative process. Not satisfied to work within 'the jazz tradition,' he assimilates multiple styles and musical models into his compositions. Drawing from 20th ...
Tim Berne's Snakeoil: Shadow Man
by Troy Collins
New York-based alto saxophonist Tim Berne has long been regarded one of the Downtown scene's most forward-thinking bandleaders. Among his peers, no other artist has so often fostered the creative talent of subsequent generations; multi-instrumentalist Chris Speed, keyboardist Craig Taborn and drummer Jim Black all spent their formative years playing alongside the veteran saxophonist. Likewise, Berne ...
Introducing Polish Trumpeter Tomasz Dabrowski
by Eyal Hareuveni
Polish trumpeter Tomasz Dąbrowski, now based in Denmark, is a rising and promising force in the European scene. He has a strong, instantly recognizable sound and expressive tone. His versatile musical language references the American fiery free jazz, Eastern European and Balkan folk music, the Scandinavian contemplative jazz and contemporary, avant-garde music. Dąbrowski already released eleven ...
Francois Cotinaud / Barre Phillips / Henri Roger / Emmanuelle Somer: No Meat Inside
by Eyal Hareuveni
This live documentation of an ad-hoc French free improvising quartet was done at the festival Jazz sous les bigaradiers at La Gaude near Nice in November 2012. The friendly atmosphere of the club So What as well as the warm reception of the audience inspired the quartet for this noisy, wild, poetic and free performance.
