A Different Drummer, Part 3: Pino Basile & Mizuki Wildenhahn
by Karl Ackermann
The Swish Knocker, And More Early on in his career, the late Milford Graves abandoned the snare drum, substituting the resonance of the toms for the snare parts. He believed music of the drum reverberated from within the drummer and the listener without the need for extraneous instrumentation. Tyshawn Sorey's approach to music speaks to contempt ...

Zlatko Kaućić Quintet: Morning Patches
by Neri Pollastri
Frutto di un set nel quale l'improvvisazione iniziava ben prima della performance (i musicisti non avevano mai suonato assieme, il concerto è stato pensato solo la sera precedente e a mezz'ora dall'inizio non era ancora certo che si tenesse), questo lavoro è stato registrato la mattina del 15 settembre 2018 nella chiesta di San Martino di ...
