Stephen Davis Unit: The Gleaming World
by Ian Patterson
Belfast-based drummer-percussionist Stephen Davis' debut album for 577 Records takes its name from a line in a Seamus Heaney poem. The Irish Nobel laureate drew deeply on his rural surroundings, and, as these song titles suggest, so too has Davis. In late 2023, Davis spent time as a musician-in-residence at The Courthouse, Tinahely, in County Wicklow--an ...

Two major milestones in any person's life, but especially mine this year. Unleashed represents my playing, my personality, and my overall attitude towards my career development. ...
Ben Solomon: Echolocation
by Alberto Bazzurro
Fra cascami coltraniani, evidenti fin dalle prime note del brano iniziale (ma del resto fin dal nome dell'etichetta produttrice dell'album), e un linguaggio risciacquato anche in acque un po' più contemporanee, questo live album (incisione del dicembre 2023) del giovane tenorsassofonista (in altre occasioni anche sopranista) Ben Solomon ci offre una musica solida e ottimamente congegnata, ...

Jon Irabagon: Server Farm
by Mike Jurkovic
Warning! Warning! Heads up! Spoiler alert! Server Farm has the potential to take your head to some random places. Some alarming (as all artists should be these days), Some cacophonous. Some claustrophobic. Others freeing, fleeting, fervent. Server Farm, saxophonist/composer Jon Irabagon's heatedly precise and prescient head-on clash with the threat of AI blisters the ...

Noah Preminger: Ballads
by Alberto Bazzurro
Il ritorno a casa. Col suo bellissimo suono di tenore, Noah Preminger inanella in meno di trentotto minuti sette sue composizioni ispirate--anzi totalmente concepite--nel segno del titolo, molto semplicemente Ballads. E qui naturalmente si apre la querelle: i tradizionalisti andranno in brodo di giuggiole (evocando magari l'omonimo album di John Coltrane), perché il disco è assolutamente ...
