Mederic Collignon: Shangri-Tunkashi-La

Read "Shangri-Tunkashi-La" reviewed by John Kelman


Less known than he should be outside his native France, Médéric Collignon is something of a jazz celebrity at home. A winner of multiple awards, the trumpeter/keyboardist/vocalist has participated and collaborated with the esteemed Orchestre National de Jazz, and can be heard on clarinetist Louis Sclavis' idiosyncratic Napoli's Walls (ECM, 2003). With Shangri-Tunkashi-La, Collignon brings a ...

Aki Takase / Louis Sclavis: Yokohama

Read "Yokohama" reviewed by Nic Jones


Aki Takase is making a real burden for herself with this the latest in her hopefully ongoing series of Intakt releases. With every successive one it's not just a simple matter of the quality going up but rather a matter of different facets of her ability being revealed. As these releases have all been documents of ...

ECM at 40: Enjoy Jazz Festival: Days 3-6, October 22-25, 2009

Read "ECM at 40: Enjoy Jazz Festival: Days 3-6, October 22-25, 2009" reviewed by John Kelman


Days 1-2 | Day 3-6 | Days 7-10 | Days 11-12 ECM at 40. It's hard to believe that a record label responsible for stretching the boundaries of modern music has survived the various crises that have threatened and, in some cases, decimated so many others. With Enjoy Jazz's “The Blue Sound: 40 Years ...

Days 1-2 | Day 3-6 | Days 7-10 | Days 11-12 Situated along the Neckar River in the central part of Germany, Heidelberg may seem like an unlikely place for a six-week jazz festival in the middle of the fall each year. But Enjoy Jazz, now in its eleventh year, has been bringing an ...

Louis Sclavis: Lost On The Way

Read "Lost On The Way" reviewed by Jeff Dayton-Johnson


Clash of the jazz titans! Miles Davis famously remarked that the late Eric Dolphy played “like someone was standing on his feet." An uncharacteristically bad bit of timing for Davis: his comments appeared in print just after the tragically early death of the great multi-reedsman in 1964. Many years later, it is possible both to find ...

Louis Sclavis: Lost on the Way

Read "Lost on the Way" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


French multi-reedist Louis Sclavis has involved himself in many modes of musical expression during a career which has spanned over 30 years, from free to folk to Baroque, and into the contemporary realm. His jazz perspective is European, which perhaps means having something of a chamber approach, and not much rooting in the blues--not unusual for ...

Louis Sclavis: Lost on the Way

Read "Lost on the Way" reviewed by John Kelman


Over the course eight albums, French clarinetist/saxophonist Louis Sclavis has carved his own niche on ECM. Every album possesses a different complexion--from the acoustic free play of Acoustic Quartet (1994) and aggressively open-ended variations of composer Jean-Phillip Rameau's work on Les Violences de Rameau (1996) to the more structured soundtrack for Charles Vanel's 1929 film, Dans ...

Louis Sclavis: Lost on the Way

Read "Lost on the Way" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


E' sempre un piacere mettere nel lettore un CD di Louis Sclavis. Anche a dispetto, come in questo caso, di un titolo fuorviante (Lost on the Way). Perché il clarinettista di Lione non è certo musicista che si perde per strada. La sua musica ha sempre una coerenza impeccabile, un senso della narrazione non comune. L'idea ...
