Mai Jazz 2014

Read "Mai Jazz 2014" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

Mai Jazz 2014 Stavanger, Norway May 6-11, 2014 After visiting Norway as often as four or five times annually, a first trip to the country in early May is surprisingly late for a first visit of the year. The last time visiting the west coast city of Stavanger was in 2008, part ...

Billy Hart Quartet: One is the Other

Read "One is the Other" reviewed by Vic Albani

by Vic Albani

One Is the Other è il secondo CD realizzato dal leggendario Billy Hart per la ECM di Manfred Eicher che, come sua buona abitudine, ha prodotto anche questo lavoro del batterista di Washington dopo il già fortunato All Our Reasons, uscito nel 2012 con la stessa formazione. Un quartetto di vere “all stars" contemporanee quali il ...

Bernie Worrell: Elevation: The Upper Air

Read "Elevation: The Upper Air" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

Alert Manfred Eicher, somebody has stolen one of his pianists! Certainly in a blindfold test, most listeners would mistake Elevation: The Upper Air for a release by ECM Records, probably identifying the pianist as Marcin Wasilewski or Tord Gustavsen before ever guessing it was by one of the founders of Parliament/Funkadelic, Bernie Worrell. But ...

Vijay Iyer: Mutations

Read "Mutations" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero

by Vincenzo Roggero

Alla fine anche Vijay Iyer si accomoda alla corte di re Manfred Eicher. E lo fa alla sua maniera, spiazzando chi lo attendeva al varco con una nuova rivisitazione del piano trio, o con l'ennesima escursione nel mondo del poetry insieme all'amico Mike Ladd, o con il recupero della via indiana al jazz insieme al collaboratore ...

Vijay Iyer: Mutations

Read "Vijay Iyer: Mutations" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

There are times when it's possible to chart an artist's success through his association with record labels. Vijay Iyer--who, over the past 20 years, has built a reputation for genre-defying, forward-reaching music--spent the early part of his career on independent US labels including the highly regarded Pi Recordings, Savoy Jazz and Sunnyside Records. But it was ...

Maria Pia De Vito e Michele Rabbia: Pergolesi Revisited

Read "Maria Pia De Vito e Michele Rabbia: Pergolesi Revisited" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro

by Alberto Bazzurro

Già riunire quattro personalità tutto sommato piuttosto eterogenee come la violoncellista tedesca Anja Lechner e il pianista francese François Couturier da un lato, la cantante napoletana Maria Pia De Vito e il percussionista saviglianese Michele Rabbia dall'altro, appare di primo acchito operazione alquanto ardita. Farli misurare con l'opera di Gianbattista Pergolesi, iesino trapiantato a Napoli (e ...

Norma Winstone: Dance Without Answer

Read "Norma Winstone: Dance Without Answer" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

If there's a single accomplishment that can be attributed to ECM Records--though there are, of course, many in its 45-year history--it's that it welcomes unusual instrumentation with open arms, affording such collaborations the opportunity to grow, to evolve, and build a new language. From the pan-cultural CODONA Trilogy (2009), which collected the three genre-defying recordings made ...
