Roberto Ottaviano QuarkTet: Sideralis
by Mario Calvitti
Per il suo più recente lavoro, appena pubblicato, Roberto Ottaviano ha inteso realizzare un omaggio a John Coltrane nella ricorrenza del cinquantesimo anniversario dalla sua scomparsa. In realtà il disco è molto più di un semplice tributo al grande artista, che è sempre stato uno dei principali punti di riferimento per Ottaviano; le dieci composizioni originali ...

Tim Armacost: Time Being
by Geno Thackara
From the initial trotting bass solo smoothly segueing into a toe-tapping slice of timeless bop, Time Being's opening jaunt makes an introduction fascinatingly tricky and inviting. Those familiar with the wide-ranging saxophonist Tim Armacost, however, know he's got much more still up his sleeve--and that no matter how complicated things get, they'll stay listenable and accessible ...

Courtney Pine: Standing on the Shoulders of Giants
by David Burke
Courtney Pine didn't pick up his beloved tenor saxophone for more than a decade, until an album exploring the black British experience demanded it. The multi-instrumentalist eschewed the horn on the likes of Europa, House of Legends and Song (The Ballad Book), his two-hander with pianist Zoe Rahman. I spoke to Sonny Rollins about ...
Mostly Other People Do The Killing: Paint
by Jerome Wilson
Mostly Other People Do The Killing have released their second CD of 2017 and, in keeping with the group's unpredictability, it's a bit of a curve ball. Whereas on previous releases they've ranged in size from a quartet to a septet, this time they've cut themselves down to a simple piano trio. Other than that, it's ...
A dialogo con Roberto Ottaviano

Poliedrico quanto a collaborazioni ed esplorazioni di aree stilistiche, sempre rigorosissimo nel modo di affrontare qualsiasi situazione musicale, ritenuto dalla critica uno dei maggiori interpreti del sassofono jazz in Europa, Roberto Ottaviano è prossimo a compiere sessant'anni, essendo nato a Bari nel dicembre del '57. E lo fa presentando un ennesimo lavoro di altissimo livello, altro ...
Jazz and Philosophy
by Douglas Groothuis
Philosophy warms to jazz, but not as much, perhaps, to rock or blues. We can talk through the night about rock and blues, and it may be fun. But just how philosophical can we get about rock and blues--even with the help of a few smart friends and a few adult beverages? Rock is the rambunctious ...
