Charles Lloyd: Manhattan Stories
by Vic Albani
È sempre più raro che il mercato discografico possa riesca a mettere le mani su, e poi pubblicare, gemme di particolare bellezza magari dimenticate in qualche cassetto oppure mai pubblicate prima per i più svariati motivi. Con l'incredibile meticolosità di sempre, la Resonance di Zev Feldman e George Klabin recupera oggi due scintillanti concerti di sua ...
Free Jazz Versus Free Improvisation
by Dom Minasi
Free jazz versus free improvisation. Are they the same? I submit they are not. Let's take a look at what makes up music. I was taught from the very beginning that music is composed of three parts: 1. Melody; 2. Harmony; 3. Rhythm. Now add improvisation to the mix, and ...
Gianni Gagliardi: Nomadic Nature
by Luigi Sforza
Sin dalle prime note di contrabbasso, che mantiene un pedale e introducono “Paris," l'appassionato di Ornette Coleman esulta. Scorrono altre tracce -"L'ironie d'une Jolie Prisse De Téte," dove alberga una definizione sonora di tipo iberico, moderna e spavaldamente veloce, “Macanudo Man," una specie di funk sospeso tra la possibilità di farsi fusion e l'impossibilità di appiatirsi ...
Jeremy Begbie: What can Jazz teach us about being a Christian?
by K. Shackelford
Jazz has long conciliated a sonic language that speaks of the nubilous, mystifying aspects of the human journey. Through jazz, we find the evocation of diverse emotions of the human spirit--depression, happiness, pain and love--sonically conjured through its dissonant chords and jagged rhythmic constructions. Indeed, the deepest and most hidden emotions are provoked and dealt with, ...

Mostly Other People Do the Killing: Blue
by Maurizio Comandini
Una domanda sorge spontanea: ma con questo Blue cosa volevano dimostrare? Il gruppo di Moppa Elliott si è scelto da subito un nome molto intrigante, Mostly Other People Do the Killing, che di sicuro non li fa passare inosservati. Poi, dal 2003, il quartetto ha cominciato un percorso artistico molto interessante che per certi versi fa ...
Falso d'autore o geniale trovata? Il caso di "Blue" dei Mostly Other People Do The Killing
by AAJ Staff
Per provare a capire il nuovo lavoro dei Mostly Other People Do the Killing, senza limitarsi a notare solo “quanto sono bravi a rifare esattamente -o quasi-nota per nota la musica dell'originale Kind of Blue“ o a bollare l'operazione come una sorta di divertissement vagamente situazionista e fondamentalmente inutile, sono piuttosto interessanti le annotazioni che il ...
