Il Meglio del 2018 Secondo Nicola Negri

Read "Il Meglio del 2018 Secondo Nicola Negri" reviewed by Nicola Negri

by Nicola Negri

Per chi non se ne fosse accorto, stiamo vivendo un momento musicale straordinario, fatto di ricerca senza confini, ibridazioni linguistiche e condivisione di esperienze spesso agli antipodi--insomma diametralmente opposto al periodo storico, in cui l'ignoranza miope delle nuove destre vorrebbe tenerci divisi, ancorati ad un'idea identitaria ormai superata dalla storia. Dal jazz più classico alle ...

Megalitico 4tet: Endless

Read "Endless" reviewed by Neri Pollastri

by Neri Pollastri

Quartetto internazionale dalle belle individualità, messo in piedi dal multistrumentista sardo Gavino Murgia, Megalitico ha una strumentazione abbastanza particolare, che vede accanto ai fiati del leader la fisarmonica di Luciano Biondini, la tuba (o il basso elettrico) di Michel Godard, oltre alla batteria di Patrice Heral.

Read "Musical Prophet: The Expanded 1963 New York Sessions" reviewed by Troy Dostert
