Mark Lockheart: In Deep
by AAJ Italy Staff
Eccola ancora la Edition Records. con il suo carico di preziose registrazioni che stanno offrendo un significativo spaccato della scena improvvisativa inglese. Dopo i talenti giovanili (ne sentiremo parlare a lungo) a nome Dave Stapleton e Mattew Bourne celebrati con gli album Dismantling the Waterfall e Lost Something, tocca ad un veterano come il sassofonista Mark ...
Mark Lockheart: In Deep
by John Kelman
It's been four years since saxophonist Mark Lockheart's best-of-year Moving Air (Basho, 2005). Contrasting Moving Air's organic multi-tracking, In Deep goes for purer in-the-moment territory, with a traditional trumpet/sax/piano/bass/drums quintet that's anything but conventional. Lockheart's ability to evoke a multiplicity of images with his music has been a marker with groups including ...
Kairos 4tet: Kairos Moment
by Chris May
A luminous debut album from four young London musicians which, unexpectedly, affirms the eternal verities of acoustic jazz. Supple rhythms, strong melodies, inventive harmonies, flowing improvisation...it's all here and it bucks the trend. Since the adoption of Acoustic Ladyland by the mainstream media round about the release of the band's album Last Chance Disco (Babel, 2005), ...
Julian Arguelles: Momenta
by Chris May
Following fast on the delicately wrought solo album Inner Voices (Tone Of A Pitch, 2008), on which Julian Arguelles played a panoply of overdubbed saxophones, clarinets and flutes, here's a more extrovert outing from the lyrical and emotionally engaged British reed player. Momenta was made with the 16-piece Frankfurt Radio Bigband, and has the added bonus ...
Indie Label Beat
by Nick Catalano
I have a European colleague who writes about jazz and possesses a knowledge of labels and their history that is astounding. When we talk about past artists and their various contributions during different periods of their lives, I'm always surprised how often these discussions include considerable time spent on the labels involved. It is amazing how ...

Mark Lockheart: Moving Air
by John Kelman
Jazz may be a marginalized genre, but that condition seems at odds with the wealth of outstanding artists moving it forward. And when you consider regionalization, both stylistically and geographically, it can be almost insurmountable to keep track of jazz's ongoing evolution. Consequently, most artists find themselves working in insular surroundings, working with the same circle ...
Mark Lockheart: Moving Air
by Bev Stapleton
The music scene in the UK notices jazz about once every ten years and then forgets the musicians thrust into the limelight quite unforgivingly. The recent Jazz Britannia series told the tale of Keith Tippett, extravagantly flying his Centipede band to Europe in the early '70s but reduced to picking potatoes by the 1980s. In the ...
