Tord Gustavsen: Extended Circle
by Libero Farnè
In una certa tradizione ECM questo disco ci propone una delle più rappresentative espressioni del jazz scandinavo, un'immagine nordica impressionistica, nitidamente caratterizzata, per altro contraddetta da tante altre esperienze “forti," nate a quelle latitudini nell'ultimo ventennio. Le composizioni sono prevalentemente del leader: “Staying There" può ricordare le collaborazioni fra Keith Jarrett e Jan Garbarek degli anni ...
Dylan Ryan / Sand: Circa
by Troy Collins
Sand is the latest project from forward-thinking drummer Dylan Ryan, leader and principal composer of Herculaneum, a progressive ensemble that skillfully negotiates the tenuous divide between avant-garde jazz and instrumental post-rock. This smaller lineup (featuring guitarist Timothy Young and bassist Devin Hoff) evinces a similar aesthetic, exploring the harmonic, melodic and rhythmic intricacies of creative improvised ...

by Ian Patterson
Such is the musical shift between Azure's When She Smiles (Azuremusic, 2009) and Hiptronics that they sound like different bands; effectively, they are. The main songwriter, classically influenced pianist Pierre-Francois Blanchard has been replaced by keyboardist Federico Solazzo and only co-founder, guitarist Rogier Schneemann remains from the original group, which has grown to a quintet with ...
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 ...
Dimitrije Vasiljević: Metaphor
by Chris M. Slawecki
The second solo piano release by composer, pianist and Serbian native Dimitrije Vasiljević, Metaphor seems to embody the very best of the European (Eastern and Western) and American classical and jazz piano traditions. With his austere yet light approach to melody and rhythm, Vasiljević reflects both emerging pianists such as Eldar Djangirov and more longstanding stalwarts ...
