Sandro Sciarratta: Pietra
by Alberto Bazzurro
Raccogliendo sue composizioni redatte nell'arco di un quindicennio, il contrabbassista agrigentino, classe 1956, mette insieme un lavoro di rara onestà intellettuale e rigore. Anche a rischio di apparire, in mezzo a tanti musicisti nati vecchi, persino anacronistico. In Pietra si respira in effetti un'aria da scena radicale anni Settanta/Ottanta, di cui già un ...
Marco Sanguinetti: 8
by Eyal Hareuveni
Argentine pianist Marco Sanguinetti mocks any attempt to position himself in a defined style or genre. This gifted composer and jazz improviser and his trio Pibe-A previously recorded complete interpretations of Radiohead's Kid A and Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon.

Marco Sanguinetti: 8
by Mehdi El Mouden
From Buenos Aires, pianist and composer Marco Sanguinetti digs art from numerous sources to create a feeling which is unique.

Mike Davis: Fortunes and Hat-Tricks, Vol. 2
by Eyal Hareuveni
Double bassist Mike Davis organizes his spontaneous, immediate improvisations-compositions according to two arbitrary guidelines.

The second ...

by Ian Patterson
JACK Quartet The MAC Belfast January 18, 2013 “This is really weird," a woman said as she deliberated where to sit for the concert.

The New NEA Jazz Masters: Anthony Braxton
There has been disagreement for more than forty years about whether the saxophonist, composer and sometime pianist Anthony Braxton is a jazz musician. With many others, he long insisted that the music he wrote and played was not jazz, but in 1993 he told author Cole Gagne, “...even though I have been saying I’m not a ...
Scott Fields / Jeffrey Lependorf: Everything is in the instructions
by Eyal Hareuveni
Composer of contemporary chamber music and opera and certified master of the Japanese shakuhachi flute Jeffrey Lependorf cites an insightful incident he had with iconoclastic composer John Cage that reveals much about typical misconceptions about what is right and what is wrong in music and art. Lebendorf wanted Cage to clarify his vague instructions for a ...

by Ian Patterson
PianOrquestra Sonic Arts Research Centre Belfast Festival Belfast, N. Ireland October 20, 2013 Composer John Cage would have been like a little kid in a sweetie shop; a serious little kid perhaps, but one at play nonetheless, because the Sonic Arts Research Centre of the Queens University Belfast is ...
