Vijay Iyer Trio: Break Stuff
by Vincenzo Roggero
Dopo l'escursione nel terreno minato del quartetto d'archi e delle ambientazioni cameristiche del precedente lavoro per ECM (Mutations), risolta al solito brillantemente, Vijay Iyer ritorna allo storico trio acustico, con Stephan Crump e Marcus Gilmore, attivo da undici anni, qui al debutto per la prestigiosa etichetta bavarese. E lo fa licenziando il solito grande album, aggiungendo ...
David Virelles: Mbókò
by Luca Canini
Certo che ne ha di talento David Virelles. A quintali, a vagonate. Da affittare, vendere e persino subappaltare. Nell'ottobre del 2012, quando la Pi Recordings mise il timbro su Continuum, secondo disco del pianista di origini cubane, non furono in molti ad accorgersi che era nata una stella. Oggi, a due anni abbondanti ...
Vijay Iyer Trio: Break Stuff
by Karl Ackermann
From the time of his debut as a leader nearly twenty years ago on Architextures (Asian Improv Records, 1996), pianist and composer Vijay Iyer has been a great experimenter.

Vijay Iyer Trio: Break Stuff
by John Kelman
When it comes to jazz/improvised music, there are those who, like pianist Keith Jarrett, prefer to approach it with a blank slate, clearing their minds of everything in order to find a way to pull form from the ether.

David Virelles: Mboko
by John Kelman
For a relatively young musician nearing his 31st birthday in 2014, pianist David Virelles has managed to both garner a strong reputation and emerge with a singular voice in a relatively short period of time. While his early experiences in North America were within the confines of what might be expected from a Cuban expat, playing ...
Mark Turner: Lathe of Heaven
by John Kelman
Given that he's participated on no fewer than six recordings on ECM over the past six years-- two this year alone, with drummer Billy Hart's sophomore effort for the label, One is the Other (2014), and pianist Stefano Bollani's career-defining Joy In Spite Of Everything (2014)--it's no surprise to find Mark Turner finally getting his own ...
Mark Turner Quartet: Lathe of Heaven
by Karl Ackermann
Saxophonist Mark Turner favors quality over quantity. Lathe of Heaven--his first outing as a leader since 2001--is his first on the ECM label. Turner has hardly been absent from the music scene as the intervening years have seen him as a sideman for guitarist Kurt Rosenwinkel and saxophonist David Binney among many others. He's gathered strong ...
