Eric Plandé / Hasse Poulsen / Claude Tchamitchian: Beyond Dreams

Read "Beyond Dreams" reviewed by Glenn Astarita

by Glenn Astarita

Here, we can throw genre type discussions out the door, since this European trio transparently interconnects worldly motifs with tribal insinuations, classic free jazz interplay and asymmetrically improvised and structured song forms. In addition, the musicians artfully generate a magnetic field that also includes bluesy vamps with melodious contrasts and unison phrasings, often cast with ethereal ...

The Clarinet Trio: Transformations and Further Passages

Read "Transformations and Further Passages" reviewed by John Eyles

by John Eyles

A clarinet trio is a chamber trio comprising a clarinet, a bowed string instrument such as a violin, viola or cello, and a piano; the phrase can also refer to a composition written for such a trio. However, away from such matters, The Clarinet Trio is the name of a three-clarinet group which first recorded together ...

Armaroli; Schiaffini; Sjöström: Duos & Trios

Read "Duos & Trios" reviewed by Neri Pollastri

by Neri Pollastri

Registrato nel dicembre del 2019, questo lavoro nasce per iniziativa del vibrafonista Sergio Armaroli, intenzionato a riunire in trio il suo abituale compagno di viaggio Giancarlo Schiaffini (con il quale ha realizzato tra gli altri il recente Deconstructing Monk in Africa) e il sassofonista soprano finlandese Harri Sjöström, sovente incontrato assieme a Gianni Mimmo. Impossibilitati a ...

Andrea Massaria: New Needs Need New Techniques

Read "New Needs Need New Techniques" reviewed by Glenn Astarita

by Glenn Astarita

With his debut solo recording, abstract guitarist Andrea Massaria indulges in sleight of hand framed techniques, while executing free form tonal vignettes that bridge painting with music via nine pieces that are dedicated to, and motivated by three impressionists: Rothko, Rauschenberg, and Pollock. Here, the artist's expressive nature spawns plucking and streaming layers of controlled analog ...

John Wolf Brennan: Nitty Gritty Ditties

Read "Nitty Gritty Ditties" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro

by Alberto Bazzurro

Sotto l'insegna Nonsolopiano (sottotitolo del CD), John Wolf Brennan ci offre una nuova prova del suo enciclopedismo musicale, fatto di un polistrumentismo tastieristico in cui il piano rimane pur sempre il faro e di input stilistici (meglio ancora linguistici) decisamente variegati. In questi fittissimi trentatré brani (svarianti da meno di un minuto a quasi quattro, per ...

Read "Last Train from Narvskaya" reviewed by John Eyles

by John Eyles

In 2019, the UK-based Leo Records was celebrating the fortieth anniversary of its formation by the Russian émigré Leo Feigin, the self-styled “enthusiastic amateur" who managed to attract a host of first-rate musicians to the label, as well as developing many who were little-known when they joined Leo. An important part of the celebrations was the ...
