Enrico Rava Quartet with Gianluca Petrella: Wild Dance
by Karl Ackermann
The senior statesman, and easily the most recognizable name in Italian jazz, trumpeter Enrico Rava returns with a revised quintet line up on Wild Dance. Rava, who early in his career worked with saxophonist Steve Lacy, pianist Mal Waldron and trombonist Roswell Rudd, later went on to team with drummer Tony Oxley and sit in with ...

Albert "Tootie" Heath, Ethan Iverson, Ben Street: Philadelphia Beat
by Stefano Merighi
Ottant'anni di fragranza sono quelli di Albert “Tootie" Heath, a giudicare dalla qualità del gioco imbastito in trio con il piano di Ethan Iverson ed il contrabbasso di Ben Street, un gioco giunto alla sua terza e più riuscita mano, votato alle regole non scritte della scuola jazzistica di Philadelphia. Un magistero, quello di Heath, plasmato ...
I 10 CD nel CD player di... Nicola Guazzaloca
by Vincenzo Roggero
01. Massimo De Mattia -Quartet Hypermodern (Rudi Records -2014). Un lavoro in cui le individualità emergono nitide ed autorevoli, ogni elemento è inserito nel processo con salda intenzione e responsabilità, con sottesa energia lungo un percorso timbricamente vario e stratificato, a snodarsi fra le geometrie evocate dal flauto di De Mattia nel pulsare di ...
Giancarlo Tossani Synapser + Alessi: Newswok
by Dave Wayne
Wonders never cease. When Newswok first arrived in the mail, my first question was not “What the hell does 'Newswok' mean?" It was “Who is Giancarlo Tossani, and why is Ralph Alessi playing with him?" I was also alarmed that I had never heard of the record label, Auand Records, before. This despite the fact that ...
Tim Ferguson's Inside/Out: Hold That Thought
by Hrayr Attarian
Bassist Tim Ferguson's unconventional trio Inside/Out is a collaborative group that makes its recorded debut with Hold That Thought. Sandwiched between a piece by bassist Charlie Haden and another by pianist Mal Waldron this engaging mix of free improvisations and original compositions brims with a warm intimacy and intense lyricism. Haden's “Silence" opens with ...
Gianni Lenoci / Kent Carter / Bill Elgart: Plaything
by John Sharpe
Italian pianist Gianni Lenoci forms one apex of a trio with almost unlimited collective nous on Plaything. There are main two reasons for that: Kent Carter on bass and Bill Elgart on drums, both veterans of the 1964 October Revolution in Jazz, who have since carved niches for themselves in Europe. Carter 's early exposure arrived ...
Roberto Ottaviano: Forgotten Matches. The Worlds Of Steve Lacy (1934-2004)
by Neri Pollastri
Il 4 giugno del 2004 veniva a mancare Steve Lacy, uno dei giganti della storia del jazz che, per molteplici motivi, non ha ricevuto l'attenzione e il successo di pubblico di altre figure del suo calibro. Tra le possibili spiegazioni sta probabilmente la scelta di dedicarsi interamente a uno strumento un po' particolare qual è il ...
Roberto Ottaviano: su Lacy e non solo
by Libero Farnè
Il 4 giugno 2004 Steve Lacy moriva a Boston. Non mi pare che la comunità del jazz abbia celebrato adeguatamente il decennale. Eppure il grande compositore, sopranista, leader e pensatore americano, uno dei personaggi unici nella storia del jazz, non solo non può essere dimenticato, ma dovrebbe essere continuamente riscoperto e rianalizzato, in quanto potrebbe fornire ...
