Michael Moore: Live in Chicago / Felix Quartet

Read "Michael Moore: Live in Chicago / Felix Quartet" reviewed by Giuseppe Segala


Si aggiungono due nuovi lavori al sostanzioso catalogo Ramboy, l'etichetta autogestita dal sassofonista e clarinettista Michael Moore, fondata nel 1991, che documenta l'attività ampia e multiforme del musicista. La conoscenza di Moore è forse maggiormente legata alla sua presenza nel Clusone Trio, formazione nata nel 1988 con Ernst Reijseger al violoncello e Han Bennink alla batteria ...

Erik Friedlander's Oscalypso al Carambolage di Bolzano

Read "Erik Friedlander's Oscalypso al Carambolage di Bolzano" reviewed by Giuseppe Segala


Erik Friedlander's Oscalypso Piccolo Teatro Carambolage Bolzano 06.02.2017 Eleganza, precisione, arrangiamenti che coniugano intricati contrappunti a trasparenti unisoni, attenzione ai contrasti dinamici e agli impasti timbrici. Senso dell'esplorazione e della sorpresa. Sembrerebbe la descrizione dell'approccio musicale cameristico tipico di quello che è stato collocato sotto la definizione di Cool Jazz. Quella ...

Mark Russo: New Affirmation

Read "New Affirmation" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan


Living in our current age of technology, it is relatively easy and inexpensive for a musician to record a set of music and put it out for the masses. The ease in such an endeavor also makes it somewhat of a double-edged sword. Just because something is possible doesn't always mean it should be done. As ...

John Lindberg BC3: Born in an Urban Ruin

Read "Born in an Urban Ruin" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro


Trio di squisita fisionomia cameristica, qui registrato nel maggio 2016, il BC3 di John Lindberg riporta sotto i riflettori il bassista del Michigan con un lavoro degno dei suoi migliori trascorsi. Già la conformazione clarinetto-vibrafono-contrabbasso denota quanto ci si avvicini a un'idea--appunto-- cameristica del fare jazz, non senza rimandare qua e là a colui che fu ...

Randy Kaye Quintet: Brooklyn 1967, May 24th

Read "Brooklyn 1967, May 24th" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro


Ha abbastanza dell'incredibile il destino di queste matrici: registrate, verosimilmente per finire su un doppio LP, nella primavera 1967, in studio, con materiale di sicuro interesse e adeguata resa fonica, sono rimaste invece nel fatidico cassetto (o scaffale che dir si voglia) per quasi mezzo secolo, uscendo a otto anni (nessun anniversario particolare, quindi) dalla morte ...
