Read "Hatfield & The North at Théâtre Gésu" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

Hatfield & the North Le Festival des Musiques Progressives de Montréal Théâtre Gésu September 15, 2006 A little-known fact is that when the progressive rock movement emerged in the late 1960s/early 1970s, the province of Quebec, Canada, was singularly responsible for breaking more than a few European groups in North America. ...

Bill Frisell Quintet

Read "Bill Frisell Quintet" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

La Palma - Roma - 20.07.2006 Lasciate da parte le rivisitazioni country e bluegrass, le contaminazioni con la world music, e le improbabili collaborazioni con cantanti figlie d'arte che avevano caratterizzato le sue ultime apparizioni nel nostro paese, Bill Frisell si è ripresentato al pubblico italiano (purtroppo solo per gli spettatori di Roma e Genova) come ...

Ernie Watts, Jeremy Monteiro, Belinda Moody, Shawn Kelley. The Living Room Sheraton Grande Bangkok 12 June 2006 A saxophone that beautiful, black, embossed in gold leaf, and whose bell seemed to radiate golden light, is made to produce the finest of music.

by AAJ Italy Staff

Matera - 31.08-3.09.2006 In quella città unica e magica che è Matera l'Onyx Jazz Club, realtà altrettanto unica, anno dopo anno continua ad organizzare Gezziamoci con abnegazione ed inventiva.

Chicago Jazz Festival 2006

Read "Chicago Jazz Festival 2006" reviewed by Sandy Ingham

by Sandy Ingham

The Chicago Jazz Festival is the biggest free event of its kind anywhere, and it also likes to boast about the broad spectrum of music it offers... everything from the roots to the far-out branches (but no “smooth" jazz, thank good ness). It lived up to its billing on both counts over Labor Day weekend.An ...

Roccella Jazz 2006

Read "Roccella Jazz 2006" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

23-26.08.2006 La critica che più di frequente viene mossa a molti festival estivi è che, pur di garantire lo spettacolo, essi propinano ormai di tutto fuorché del jazz. Rispetto alle edizioni degli ultimi anni, il programma di Roccella Jazz 2006 è andato meno in questa direzione, senza rinunciare a progetti multimediali e trasversali. Nelle serate concentrate ...

Remembering Maynard at "Stratospheric" 2004

Read "Remembering Maynard at "Stratospheric" 2004" reviewed by Patricia Myers

by Patricia Myers

Maynard Ferguson grinned with delight as the sounds of “Blue Birdland roared from a big band of 14 trumpeters. When the chart ended, he climbed on stage and declared, “Finally, somebody got it right! We don't need those funny instruments like saxophones and trombones! MF's classic wit and charisma were bonus elements of the four-day production ...

Antony and the Johnsons

Read "Antony and the Johnsons" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

Teatro Romano - Verona - 30.08.2006 Senz’ombra di dubbio Antony è quello che si dice un personaggio. Il che, nell’ambito della musica-che-aspira-ad-un-sia-pur-minimo-riscontro-commerciale, non guasta. Un’esistenza inesorabilmente borderline, condotta lungo i margini sfilacciati di un’identità difficile da (far) accettare; una biografia che improvvisamente si tinge di luce, toccata dall’incontro con nomi e numi in grado di imprimere ...
