Steve Swell, Matthew Shipp: Space Cube Jazz

Read "Space Cube Jazz" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro

by Alberto Bazzurro

Una bella verve e doti di reciproco ascolto e comprensione-interazione danno fiato a questo lavoro in duo da parte di una coppia di musicisti, del resto, sempre molto attenti a non rimanere intrappolati nelle sabbie mobili dell'ovvio e del “tanto per..." La loro musica sa essere infatti sempre lucida, concentrata sul dettaglio quanto sugli equilibri complessivi ...

Gerald Cleaver: The Process

Read "The Process" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

Will the latest offering by Gerald Cleaver quiet the haters and jackals? Listeners accustomed to his drum work with Craig Taborn, William Parker, Daniel Carter, JD Allen, etc. etc., might believe they have to make a choice, one similar to the historic divide Miles Davis created when he went electric. Starting with Cleaver's recordings for Positive ...

Ivo Perelman: What A Year In Music

Read "Ivo Perelman: What A Year In Music" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

There is an adage in the music world that one is damned to be a completist. Ever since performances have been captured on cylinders, records, and now digitally, music devotees have endeavored to collect entire catalogs of their favorite musicians or ensembles. Think about the obsessive hunters of 78 rpm blues records from backwoods artists of ...

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

Read "Out On A Limb" reviewed by Mark Corroto

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)

Read "At the Showcase (Live In Chicago, 1976-1977)" reviewed by Giuseppe Segala

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 ...

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, ...

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

Read "The Data" reviewed by Mark Corroto

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 ...
