Fredrik Nordstrom Quartet: Blue
by Mark Corroto
Swedish saxophonist Fredrik Nordström (b. 1974) has been a player garnering much attention over the last few years. As his discography reaches double digits, his sound has consolidated and concentrated into a recognizable tenor approach. Blue is his fifth disc for Moserobie Music and first recording with piano legend Bobo Stenson. All ...
Magnus Broo Quartet: Painbody
by Mark Corroto
Like his fellow Swede, professional cyclist Magnus Backstedt, trumpeter Magnus Broo is quite an imposing figure. Backstedt, at nearly 200 pounds, often outweighs his fellow competitors by 60 or 70 pounds. Broo, a natural on trumpet, can dazzle as a sensitive ballad player or tear the insides out with his fiery free improvisations. He ...
Magnus Broo Quartet: Painbody
by Eyal Hareuveni
This is only the fourth release in the last decade by Swedish trumpet player Magnus Broo, all featuring his quartet. With a distinctive voice and phrasing it's not surprising, considering his busy schedule as a prominent player in the Stockholm new jazz scene, his central role in the Scandinavian super-group Atomic, frequent collaborations with Ken Vandermark ...
Maria Kannegaard: Maryland
by John Kelman
While a new generation of Scandinavian musicians explores the integration of electronics and live sampling with conventional instrumentation, it's easy to forget that many of these intrepid young artists have an equally strong foundation in the jazz tradition. Danish-born but now Norwegian-resident pianist Maria Kannegaard, who graduated from Trondheim University in Jazz Performance, has been exploring ...

Hakon Kornstad / Havard Wiik: The Bad And The Beautiful
by Budd Kopman
The Bad And The Beautiful marks the second installment of unique, intellectually stimulating and very emotional musical vignettes from saxophonist Håkon Kornstad and pianist Håvard Wiik, after Eight Tunes We Like (Moserobie, 2005). As was done previously, the tunes range from older and newer standards to intriguing tunes by today's composers, plus a ...
Alberto Pinton Quintet: Vita Pratica
by AAJ Italy Staff
Non so perché ma l’ascolto dell’iniziale “La vacanza italiana“ mi ha scaraventato dalle parti di Extrapolation di John McLaughlin, nonostante tempi storici e strumentazione assai diverse. Forse perché nel sax baritono di Alberto Pinton ho trovato più di un assonanza con quello di John Surman, forse perché il groove del brano, così accattivante ma altrettanto imprevedibile ...
Alberto Pinton Quintet: Vita Pratica
by Glenn Astarita
Italian multi-reed ace Alberto Pinton takes his art rather seriously. Time and time again he produces some of the more stimulating jazz to be heard. A resident of Sweden, the artist employs regional musicians to round out his long-running quintet. It's a complexly enacted and polytonal engagement, where the band merges the structural component with free-wheeling ...
