Mario Pavone Sextet: Deez to Blues

Read "Deez to Blues" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

Mario Pavone ha ben quattro decenni di carriera - cominciata con Paul Bley - alle spalle e sempre più creativo che mai, da accompagnatore a forte leader. Il contrabbassista statunitense ha incontrato ed inciso con tanti musicisti, da Bill Dixon e Anthony Braxton al famoso trio con Tom Chapin, eppure non si stanca mai di inventare ...

Read "Mario Pavone" reviewed by Peter Madsen

by Peter Madsen

Greetings, Wide Open Jazz and Beyond fans. It's that time of year again when musicians pray they've saved enough quarters in their piggy banks from the end of the year party gigs to get through the cold and often gigless winter months. I was fortunate this January to get a call from Mario Pavone, one of ...

Mario Pavone: Deez To Blues

Read "Deez To Blues" reviewed by Matthew Miller

by Matthew Miller

Throughout his forty-year career as a professional musician and on seventeen recordings under his leadership, bassist Mario Pavone has shown himself to be a musical maverick whose only concern is pushing himself and his contemporaries. On Deez To Blues, a sextet featuring acerbic trumpeter Steven Bernstein, violinist Charles Burnham and the consummate reed/tuba doubler Howard Johnson, ...

Mario Pavone Sextet: Deez to Blues

Read "Deez to Blues" reviewed by Jerry D'Souza

by Jerry D'Souza

If Mario Pavone were to be greeted with a fanfare of trumpets in celebration of the forty years he has been moulding music into inventive and challenging celebrations, he would probably look for bass and drums to ring the brass. Pavone is known to get the rhythm section out in front, and he continues to do ...

Mario Pavone Sextet: Deez to Blues

Read "Deez to Blues" reviewed by Troy Collins

by Troy Collins

Bassist, composer and bandleader Mario Pavone leads a new all-star sextet on Deez to Blues, his seventeenth recording as a leader. Pavone's swinging, multi-layered compositions push the tradition forward while always looking back. Like his stylistic forefather, Charles Mingus, Pavone's notion of the jazz tradition is playful yet reverent. By placing the rhythm section at the ...

Mario Pavone: Boom

Read "Boom" reviewed by Sean Patrick Fitzell

by Sean Patrick Fitzell

Bassist/composer Mario Pavone split his previous CD between trio and quintet groupings. On Boom he takes the mean, leading an adventurous quartet with longtime collaborator pianist Peter Madsen, omnipresent drummer Matt Wilson, and the industrious Tony Malaby, Pavone's most recent saxophone foil. The quartet deftly navigates Pavone's charts with tightly knit, rhythmically charged ensemble heads and ...

Mario Pavone: Boom

Read "Boom" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

Some artists determinedly eschew all obvious sense of tradition in their music; others use it as a building block to something new. One of the things that differentiate so-called creative music from free jazz is its apparent lack of ties to the American jazz tradition. While free jazz can be as extreme in its exploration, there ...
