Paul Bley Trios: Touching & Blood Revisited
by Mark Corroto
Pianist Paul Bley (1932—2016) wasn't just a witness to jazz history, he was a key contributor. Bley performed with Lester Young, Charlie Parker, Charles Mingus, and Sonny Rollins, yet his true sound was set in motion when he performed with Ornette Coleman in California, evidenced by Live At The Hillcrest Club 1958 (America Records, 1971). While ...
Trøen Arnesen Quartet: Tread Lightly
by Friedrich Kunzmann
The line that separates borrowing from stealing can be quite narrow in music, and even after judges rule on the matter, one may remain torn between the one and the other. It continues to be a very common issue in the mainstream pop world as the recent ruling against pop stars Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams ...
Sean Michael Giddings: Red Willow
by Dan McClenaghan
Keyboardist Sean Michael Giddings cites pianist Vince Guaraldi, the composer of the Charles Schultz Peanuts cartoon soundtracks (among other things), as one of his influences. Guaraldi is joined in that “sphere of influence" club by the usual suspects—Brad Mehldau, Bill Evans, Keith Jarrett--who all play a part in Giddings' sound.

Gli Unscientific Italians e l'arte della meta-sintesi Friselliana
by Ludovico Granvassu
Se Nanni Moretti fosse nato nel 1973 invece che nel 1953, la famosa scena di Caro Diario che lo vede in sella ad un vespone per le strade vuote di una languida Roma ferragostana avrebbe avuto come colonna sonora la musica di Bill Frisell piuttosto che quella di Keith Jarrett. Perchè ogni epoca viene definita da ...
