Matthew Shipp: I've Been To Many Places

Read "I've Been To Many Places" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

But is it Jazz? That question gets lobbed at pianist Matthew Shipp's music all the time. Perhaps, “propelled" or “launched" are better terms. His approach to music, whether working with saxophonists David S. Ware and Ivo Perelman or with DJs, is to play authentic music, that which is a bona fide representation of his nature, or ...

A Matthew Shipp Appreciation from Yuko Otomo

Read "A Matthew Shipp Appreciation from Yuko Otomo" reviewed by Chris Rich

by Chris Rich

I'm always looking to introduce new people to The All About Jazz readership. Yuko Otomo provided an appreciation of Matthew Shipp from her perspective as a poet and visual artist. Let Ms. Otomo take it from here. Recently, I re-read Concerning the Spiritual in Art by Wassily Kandinsky. I don't remember how ...

Ivo Perelman - 5 CD in un anno

Read "Ivo Perelman - 5 CD in un anno" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero

by Vincenzo Roggero

Nella carriera del sassofonista e artista visuale brasiliano Ivo Perelman (il suo sito è significativamente dedicato ai due differenti ambiti artistici), iniziata discograficamente nel 1989 con l'album Ivo, possiamo individuare due punti fermi, due caratteristiche rimaste per lo più immutate nel corso degli anni. La prima è la presenza all'interno di un free spesso privo di ...

Ivo Perelman, leone ipertrofico

Read "Ivo Perelman, leone ipertrofico" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro

by Alberto Bazzurro

Ormai da qualche anno l'andazzo è questo: due uscite all'anno, tre album alla volta, e via andare. Ci riferiamo ovviamente alle infornate discografiche di cui si rende protagonista Ivo Perelman su etichetta Leo. Inflazione produttiva? A dir poco. Anche perché, di fatto, i dischi sono più o meno tutti uguali. Né potrebbe essere altrimenti, al di ...

The Core Trio with Matthew Shipp: The Core Trio With Matthew Shipp

Read "The Core Trio With Matthew Shipp" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

by Dan Bilawsky

One trio. One guest. A single, forty-two minute, freely improvised piece. That's what you basically have here, but such a bare description doesn't do it justice. The Core Trio--a group that has yet to actually record as a stand-alone trio--has an interesting history that seems to always revolve around personnel twists. The group ...

Jeff Cosgrove: Alternating Current

Read "Alternating Current" reviewed by Budd Kopman

by Budd Kopman

Alternating Current is a completely entrancing recording that captures three master players listening and responding in real time. Both Matthew Shipp and William Parker thrive in the completely improvised arena, which is why drummer Jeff Cosgrove wanted them for this project. A second reason might have been that neither musician had ever played a ...

Your Shipp Has Come In

Read "Your Shipp Has Come In" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

These two guest appearances demonstrate that pianist Matthew Shipp has become an elder statesman in the jazz world. How that happened can be boiled down to two simple elements. One: he has created a unique sound and language for improvised music and two: Shipp has become a doyen of cutting edge music making and opinion.

Jeff Cosgrove: Alternating Current

Read "Alternating Current" reviewed by John Sharpe

by John Sharpe

Drummer Jeff Cosgrove certainly knows how to draw attention to himself. For his third album the DC area-based drummer enlists the services of two avant jazz icons in pianist Matthew Shipp and bassist William Parker. Just what a coup this is can be gauged from the fact that Shipp's previous sideman dates have included the legendary ...

Practice, Do You? Part 1-3

Read "Practice, Do You? Part 1-3" reviewed by Dom Minasi

by Dom Minasi

I began studying the guitar when I was seven years old. I hated my teacher and I didn't practice much, but when I changed teachers' and I went to Joe Geneli, I regained a love for the guitar that I first had when I was four years old when I first saw Roy Rogers sing and ...
