Hirsh / Swell / Clouse / Parker: Out On A Limb

by Mark Corroto
Can déjà vu be contagious? Or at least a particular quality or disposition that is communicable? This might be the question to ask after sitting down with Out On A Limb by the improvising quartet of Steve Hirsh, Steve Swell, Jim Clouse, and William Parker. The music this unit created spontaneously in April 2024 does not ...
Sun Ra: At the Showcase (Live In Chicago, 1976-1977)

by Giuseppe Segala
Moltissime sono le registrazioni di Sun Ra, alcune memorabili. In ognuna si nasconde una tessera, un elemento della sua vitalità inesauribile, della sua ricerca cosmica di torcere, frammentare, lacerare le convenzioni. Di toccare con mano meravigliata i materiali di cui dispone, quasi venissero da altri mondi, da altre dimensioni, da logiche differenti. Sun Ra trascende le ...
Ivo Perelman Quartet: Water Music

by John Sharpe
New and old converge on Water Music. Tenor saxophonist Ivo Perelman showcases a quartet with longstanding partner Matthew Shipp on piano together with the fresh rhythm axis of bassist Mark Helias and drummer Tom Rainey. Although they have not played with Perelman before, they are not exactly Johnny-come-latelys. Both have achieved veteran status, not only individually, ...

Karen Borca, Wadada Leo Smith & Amina Claudine Myers, & Albert Beger

by Maurice Hogue
This episode finds itself in a lot of different nooks and crannies of creative improvised music; there's the bassoon of Karen Borca, often considered the pioneer of that instrument in jazz, on a never-heard-before album, there's meditative yet free collaboration between two long time friends and members the AACM, trumpeter Wadada Leo Smith and pianist Amina ...
Matthew Shipp: The Data

by Mark Corroto
Music is communication, and jazz, especially jazz improvisation is the purest form of expression of one's intercourse. Think of this in terms of the contrast between Buddy Bolden, who is believed to be the very first jazz musician and Mick Jagger of The Rolling Stones. Bolden began playing Gospel, blues, and marching band music, but his ...
Phil Haynes, Janel Leppin, & Ndududzo Makhathini

by Maurice Hogue
Last year veteran drummer Phil Haynes set out on a mission to document his past recording and music history; the first step, and a large one, was the publication of a book, Chasing The Masters," which was paralleled by a 60-plus compilation of songs by various groups he led or played with. One of those bands ...

Ivo Perelman Quartet: Water Music

by Mark Corroto
Come on a rafting expedition with the Ivo Perelman Quartet. A river excursion is a perfect metaphor for the saxophonist's Water Music. Those familiar with the anomalous and idiosyncratic sounds that emanate from Perelman's saxophone also know he is attuned and reactive to the set and setting of a performance. Just as a trip on a ...
