Stefano Bollani: Joy in Spite of Everything

Read "Joy in Spite of Everything" reviewed by Karl Ackermann

The leader--a professional pianist since the age of fifteen--has crossed over most every genre from classical to avant-garde and with equal proficiency. While his early encounters with ...

Ionisation: Galen

Read "Galen" reviewed by Libero Farnè

by Libero Farnè

Il panorama dell'attuale jazz svizzero, forse meno appartato di un tempo, è ricco di proposte avanzate e ben documentate su disco. In esso il giovane batterista Jonas Imhof s'inserisce perseguendo un avant jazz non particolarmente innovativo e sostanzioso, che ricerca tuttavia con grande coerenza classici equilibri, sonorità rotonde e un incedere ponderato. In questo disco Imhof ...

by Angelo Leonardi

Accanto all'esperienza con Brad Mehldau e Larry Grenadier e l'altra--meno appariscente e quasi cameristica--del Fly (che lo vede con quest'ultimo e Mark Turner) Jeff Ballard affianca dal 2006 un altro trio, di cui è leader, e che ora debutta su disco con questo variopinto ed estroverso Time's Tales. “Sono a metà della mia ...

Save the Date - Maggio 2014

Read "Save the Date - Maggio 2014" reviewed by Luca Canini

by Luca Canini

Maggio, tempo di festival. L'estate si avvicina e nel Bel Paese è tutto uno sbocciare di rassegne. I mega eventi da piazza piena e sudata, i soliti programmi fotocopiati, le inutili poltiglie che tanto piacciono agli assessori e le proposte che invece piacciono a noi di All About Jazz. Non tantissime, a dire il vero. Siamo ...
