Paolo Paliaga e il Questionario di Proust

Read "Paolo Paliaga e il Questionario di Proust" reviewed by Paolo Peviani


Il tratto principale della mia musica Più che “mia" direi nostra. La forza dell'Alboran Trio risiede nel fatto di essere frutto di un lavoro collettivo in cui collaboriamo anziché competere. Con Ferdinando Faraò il progetto è ripartito con grande entusiasmo proprio perché non abbiamo bisogno di parlare, spiegare e razionalizzare il lavoro. Io scrivo ...

Alan Wakeman: The Octet Broadcasts 1969 and 1979

Read "The Octet Broadcasts 1969 and 1979" reviewed by Chris May


Despite a perception fostered by the more breathless media coverage given to the young lions who have emerged on the London scene since the mid 2010s, an identifiably British strand of jazz did not kick off when Shabaka Hutchings' Sons Of Kemet released its debut album in 2013. The groundwork was laid back in the 1950s ...

Roger Rota

Read "Roger Rota" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero


1. Stravinsky, Chamber Works & Rarities, (Decca). I lavori da camera di Stravinsky mi hanno sempre affascinato per la ricchezza melodica che li pervade. In particolare “Pastorale," un brano che ascoltai per la prima volta almeno trent'anni fa e che da allora riascolto periodicamente. Una melodia sognante che potrebbe non finire mai, sorretta da ...

Maria Pia De Vito: Bergamo Jazz and Beyond

Read "Maria Pia De Vito: Bergamo Jazz and Beyond" reviewed by Libero Farnè


Non tutte le cantanti, attraverso l'espressione interpretativa, riescono a mettere in piena evidenza il mondo socio-culturale che sta all'origine delle singole canzoni da loro proposte. Proprio questa sembra essere la preoccupazione irrinunciabile di Maria Pia De Vito, che col suo lavoro ha sempre teso a esaltare l'interconnessione, strettissima, indispensabile, fra il livello colto e quello popolare, ...
