Decoy (Alexander Hawkins, John Edwards, Steve Noble). Rassegna Indica Brescia, Mo.Ca. 24.02.2018 Decoy si impernia su un trio britannico ben rodato, che unisce due colonne della seconda generazione di grandi improvvisatori, come il contrabbassista John Edwards e il batterista Steve Noble, al campione della scena più recente, il tastierista e pianista ...
John Butcher, John Edwards, Mark Sanders: Last Dream at the Morning
by Alberto Bazzurro
Radicalismo improvvisativo duro e puro, per questi tre senatori del ramo, appartenenti alla seconda generazione di musicisti inglesi specializzati nella pratica specifica. Il sassofonismo ispido e acuminato, esplicitamente antigrazioso, di John Butcher (espresso su tenore e soprano, guarda caso) s'ispira palpabilmente a Evan Parker, pontefice massimo in materia (con cui fra l'altro John Edwards ha collaborato ...

Francois Carrier: Freedom is Space for the Spirit
by Budd Kopman

Francois Carrier: OUTgoing
by Budd Kopman
In the realm of Western music, the role of the performer has been rather circumscribed. In Classical music, the composer is king and the range of “allowed" expression rather limited. For most of its history, jazz performers relied on tunes as the basis for their improvisations, and thus, the composer (or tunesmith) was still ...

Defibrillator & Peter Brötzmann: Conversations About Not Eating Meat
by Mark Corroto
Imagine the fight posters we could create for the various musical boxing matches organized for saxophonist Peter Brötzmann.
