by Don Phipps

Michael Musillami/Rich Syracuse: Of The Night
by Budd Kopman
For some reason, Wayne Shorter is in the air, as evidenced by pianist Denny Zeitlin's wonderful Early Wayne and now guitarist Michael Musillami's duo album with bassist Rich Syracuse, Of The Night.

Michael Musillami, Rich Syracuse: Of The Night
by Maurizio Comandini
Il chitarrista americano Michael Musillami, attivo da oltre 25 anni sulla scena del jazz d'avanguardia, è una figura piuttosto defilata che spesso privilegia situazioni raccolte e visionarie da condividere con partner scelti con cura e attenzione per poi accendere con loro una conversazione a due o tre voci.

Michael Musillami: Pride
by Alberto Bazzurro
Metà in studio (novembre 2013) e metà dal vivo (2007), questo doppio CD offre uno spaccato alquanto eloquente delle potenzialità del chitarrista Michael Musillami (tutte sue le composizioni) e del suo ormai rodatissimo trio (numerose le incisioni già realizzate), che ospita ora il pianoforte di Kris Davis (e in due brani anche il sax tenore di ...
