Jeroen Kimman
by Vincenzo Roggero
1. Puro Huayno, Antologia de la musica Peruana (Wisepack ltd, 2000). È da qualche anno che sono innamorato della musica Hauyno dalla Bolivia e dal Perù a tal punto che devo sforzarmi per ascoltare qualcosa d'altro, in pratica sono dipendente. Musica con un proprio linguaggio e con una componente ritmica difficile da tradurre. Questa compilation ...
Jakob Bro: Bay of Rainbows
by John Kelman
Few ECM artists, barring perhaps longtime label stalwart, pianist Keith Jarrett, have been afforded the opportunity of releasing two albums within the same calendar year. That Manfred Eicher has chosen to follow up Jakob Bro's impressive quartet date, Returnings, less than seven months later with Bay of Rainbows clearly speaks to the label head/primary producer's appreciation ...
Fred Hersch Trio '97: Fred Hersch Trio '97 @ The Village Vanguard
by Dan McClenaghan
Pianist Fred Hersch paid some dues at the Village Vanguard, sitting in as a sideman there from 1979 on, playing with the bands of saxophonist Joe Henderson, trumpeter Art Farmer, alto sax man Lee Konitz, and bassist Ron Carter. But he waited until 1997 to make his debut as a leader. That debut was captured on ...
Shinya Fukumori: For 2 Akis
by Neri Pollastri
Una bella sorpresa questo trio multinazionale (ma con sede a Monaco) al debutto per ECM, guidato dal trentaquattrenne giapponese Shinya Fukumori e completato dal trentacinquenne tenorsassofonista francese Matthieu Bordenave e dal cinquantasettenne pianista tedesco Walter Lang. Fukumori, che prima di dedicarsi alla batteria aveva suonato il violino e il pianoforte, è giunto alcuni anni ...
Stefano Amerio: 20 anni di Artesuono
by Neri Pollastri
Sono passati ormai diversi anni da quando abbiamo intervistato Stefano Amerio, tecnico del suono e patron di Artesuono, lo studio di registrazione più noto e affermato d'Italia e anche d'Europa, almeno per l'ambito jazzistico. Ma Artesuono è anche un'etichetta discografica con un catalogo ampio e interessante, ancorché popolato di prodotti prevalentemente di area friulana. Un etichetta ...
Jazz Musician of the Day: Lee Konitz
All About Jazz is celebrating Lee Konitz's birthday today! Konitz is sometimes regarded as the preeminent cool jazz saxophonist, because he performed and recorded with Claude Thornhill, Lennie Tristano (both often cited as important cool jazz proponents of the mid 1940s), and with Miles Davis on his epochal Birth of the Cool, which gave the form ...
Alan Broadbent: Intimate Reflections on a Passion for Jazz
by Victor L. Schermer
Pianist, composer, and arranger Alan Broadbent doesn't just “dig" jazz. He has a deep and enduring passion for it. Growing up in mid- 20th-century New Zealand, he quickly went beyond piano lessons to reading musical scores and learning jazz standards. Then, when the Dave Brubeck Quartet came to his relatively isolated hometown of Auckland, his love ...

Matteo Bortone
by Vincenzo Roggero
1. Paul Bley, Closer (ESP, 1966). Esplorare senza paura di cadere nel vuoto. Barry Altschul incredibile. A mio avviso, uno dei migliori dischi di piano trio. 2. Elliott Smith, Either/Or (Kill Rock Stars, 1997). Cantautorato struggente post Nick Drake. ”Between the Bars” una delle mie preferite, se avessi una chitarra acustica ...
Meet Hiroyuki Masuko
by Tessa Souter and Andrea Wolper

Since those first columns in 2016, we've presented Super Fans from across the United States, including some who live part-time in other countries. But now we've officially gone international, with our first Super Fan from ...
