Butch Lacy / Jesper Løvdal / Kresten Osgood / Mark Dresser: Being Playing
by Jakob Baekgaard
The reason why it is so important to musicians and listeners alike that records are released is that they are artistic statements, but also because they document the development of the musicians. Sometimes, when a musician releases very few records, the release of an album becomes an event and a rare chance to catch up with ...

2015: The Year in Jazz
by Ken Franckling
The year 2015 was a curious blend of ups and downs, with glimmers of optimism offset by its losses. Venues opened to great fanfare, but others closed for a variety of reasons. UNESCO's International Jazz Day became firmly entrenched as the exclamation point on Jazz Appreciation Month activities in April. Daily arts journalism took a hit ...

Simon Nabatov / Mark Dresser: Projections
by John Sharpe
Projections captures an improvised duo encounter between émigré Russian pianist Simon Nabatov and Californian bassist Mark Dresser. Although they first played together as part of German composer Klaus Konig's Orchestra in 1992, it's taken until now for their first head to head. Both are masters of their respective instruments, articulate, persuasive and responsive. They come together ...
Simon Nabatov, Mark Dresser: Projections
by Maurizio Zerbo
Ascoltare musicisti creativi come Simon Nabatov e Mark Dresser costituisce sempre un'esperienza foriera di sorprese.

Satoko Fujii Tobira: Yamiyo Ni Karasu
by Karl Ackermann
If ever there were a restless musical spirit, it would be pianist, composer (and occasional accordionist) Satoko Fujii. The Japanese artist has issued more than sixty recordings in settings from solo to full orchestra and most everything in between. While she demonstrates virtuosic straight-ahead balladry on occasion, her preference has long leaned toward unorthodox improvisation. Fujii ...
Harris Eisenstadt: Golden State II
by Stefano Merighi
Harris Eisenstadt si è inserito da tempo in quel significativo drappello di batteristi-compositori in grado di dire una parola nuova nel jazz acustico di oggi. Lo fa in diversi contesti e, accanto a gruppi quali Canada Day e September Trio, svetta ora questo Golden State, originalissimo organico che affianca alle percussioni del leader il fagotto di ...
Anthony Braxton Quartet: (Santa Cruz) 1991 1st Set
by Mark Corroto
Decoding the music of Anthony Braxton might be a lifetime's mission. With his symbol system compositions and grand unification theories, even the trained ear admits to perplexity and a certain ignorance. Braxton has never stopped, nor slowed to explain himself to listeners. There are moments of insights though, in his performances. One can glean his approach ...
