Steve Olson: The Ruthless Shapes of Paradise

Read "The Ruthless Shapes of Paradise" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro


Dopo un album di duetti con partner diversi (Conversations, 2014), Steve Olson approda a questa che è la sua opera seconda optando invece per un organico fisso per tutto il disco, un trio entro le cui maglie la sua musica pudica, rattenuta, si muove seguendo la prassi della composizione istantanea, alias improvvisazione totale. ...

Morton Feldman, Quartetto Klimt: Piano, Violin, Viola, Cello

Read "Piano, Violin, Viola, Cello" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro


Questa che è l'ultima composizione di Morton Feldman, partorita l'anno stesso della sua morte (1987), rispecchia in toto le peculiarità di scrittura proprie del suo periodo estremo (e non solo, per altri versi): la dilatazione delle durate (qui si oltrepassano i settanta minuti, di fatto senza cesure di sorta), la contemporanea lentezza (spesso quasi la paralisi) ...

Mural: Tempo

Read "Tempo" reviewed by John Eyles


The most significant thing about Tempo is that it was recorded live in concert at the Rothko Chapel in Houston, Texas. This octagonal space (pictured on the album cover, right) opened in 1971, a year after Mark Rothko's death. It is sparsely furnished and painted white, with fourteen of Rothko's late works--large black canvasses--displayed around its ...

L’arte di ascoltare. Tre nuove uscite dalla Another Timbre

Read "L’arte di ascoltare. Tre nuove uscite dalla Another Timbre" reviewed by Enrico Bettinello


Tra le etichette che indagano le sonorità contemporanee sperimentali tra composizione e improvvisazione, con una particolare attenzione agli ambiti più minimali e silenziosi, la Another Timbre si è conquistata in questi anni un posto di assoluto e meritato rilievo. La materia, si sa, non è di facile gestione. Spesso si tratta di proposte ...

Anna Webber: Simple

Read "Simple" reviewed by Dave Wayne


If things aren't just right, listening to complicated music can be like doing your taxes. There has to be chemistry, there has to be a narrative, and--even though you don't know what's coming next--the music's got to be on. The players have to be free to speak in a new language; often one divorced from the ...

Tyshawn Sorey: Alloy

Read "Alloy" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


Drummer Tyshawn Sorey has evolved into one of the more sought after drummers in the jazz and improvisational strata on a global basis. His ever expanding resume is difficult to keep up with. And he possesses immense chops as a polyrhythmic powerhouse, but focuses his empathetic support on a variety of levels, including diverse compositional frameworks, ...

Morton Feldman: Two Pianos and other pieces, 1953-1969

Read "Two Pianos and other pieces, 1953-1969" reviewed by John Eyles


It has become a truism that AMM pianist John Tilbury is an interpreter of Morton Feldman's music par excellence--one of the very best, if not the best. Such opinions are backed up by his Feldman recordings such as Morton Feldman: All Piano (LondonHALL, 1999), Triadic Memories--Notti Stellate A Vagli (Atopos, 2008) and For Philip Guston (Atopos, ...
