Hush Point: Hush Point
by Vincenzo Roggero
Se tra i dieci brani contenuti in Hush Point due portano la firma di Jimmy Giuffre, se la front-line del quartetto pianoless è formato da tromba e sax, e se il trombettista del gruppo ha mosso i primi passi nella California degli anni sessanta, qualche indizio su quello che si andrà ad ascoltare ci viene pur ...
Suoni delle Dolomiti - XX Edizione
by Paolo Peviani
Regina Carter--Dave Douglas Mountainside Trentino, 15-16.07.2014 “All'aperto si gioca a bocce". Così rispose, ad un giornalista che gli aveva chiesto cosa pensasse della musica all'aperto, il grande Arturo Toscanini. Altri tempi.

Jimmy Giuffre: New York Concerts
by Hrayr Attarian
Saxophonist and clarinetist Jimmy Giuffre was a first rate innovator who restlessly reinvented his art without losing its signature character. Despite leaving behind a large recorded legacy Giuffre remains far from being a household name known mostly in hardcore jazz aficionado circles. In 2012 producer Zev Feldman of Elemental Music came across two unreleased ...

by Troy Collins
The collaborative quartet Riverside was initially founded by Montreal-based tenor saxophonist Chet Doxas to explore the legacy of groundbreaking American composer and multi-reedist Jimmy Giuffre.

Forse per una certa attitudine alla discrezione, Dave Douglas non ha mai reso esplicite nei titoli dei propri album le profonde attenzioni da lui tributate ai grandi della musica di cui si è occupato. Eppure nella sua discografia ci sono alcune tra le più pregnanti e intelligenti focalizzazioni sul mondo artistico di altri musicisti, con un ...
3 Cohens: Tightrope
by Angelo Leonardi
Nei loro dischi precedenti (vedi Family) c'erano diversi momenti in cui i fratelli israeliani s'esibivano in libere improvvisazioni a tre voci. In questo nuovo lavoro questa modalità improvvisativa diventa centrale, pur innestandosi nel rispetto della tradizione che caratterizza la loro collaborazione. Il trombettista Avishai Cohen (da non confondere con l'omonimo bassista), il sassofonista Yuval ...
