by Mark Corroto
Parts III and IV of a seven part cycle, trumpeter Nate Wooley's long form electro-acoustic work Seven Storey Mountain gains additional players and momentum with these two live performances. The music was originally commissioned for the Festival of New Trumpet Music, which has seen a shuffle in its performers, but the concept of muscle rapture endures ...
Nate Wooley - C. Spencer Yeh - Audrey Chen - Todd Carter: NCAT
by AAJ Italy Staff
In una residenza creativa allo STEIM di Amsterdam si incontrano la tromba di Nate Wooley, il violino di C. Spencer Yeh e il violoncello di Audrey Chen: sono musicisti che praticano in modo coerente e convinto i linguaggi dell'improvvisazione, sia sul lato più prettamente jazzistico che su quello più legato alle avanguardie di matrice contemporanea. Non ...
Nate Wooley - Peter Evans - Jim Black - Paul Lytton: Trumpet and Drums: Live in Ljubljana
by Glenn Astarita
Given the unorthodox instrumentation, there's a little more than meets the eyes and ears on this quartet effort recorded at a jazz festival in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Each musician is highly respected within the progressive and avant jazz communities. Yet the band doesn't bridge the playing field with tireless bashing and cacophonous exchanges, which are components that ...
Rocket Science: Rocket Science
by Mark Corroto
It isn't rocket science except when it is, indeed, Rocket Science. This renowned group of improvising superheroes delivers an audacious take on electric- acoustic chamber music. Rocket Science is a quartet assembled by trumpeter Peter Evans, who is probably best known for his work in the disobedient quartet Mostly Other People Do The Killing. He also ...

Nate Wooley Sextet: (Sit In) The Throne Of Friendship
by Mark Corroto
Like today's NFL quarterbacks, trumpeters are required to be multidimensional. Modern players (in football) are required to pass, run, block and call audibles. Likewise, the jazz horn player can't just take a high glissando solo, bow, and collect a paycheck; he/she has to be able to shift between the jazz tradition, improvisation, classical music and outside ...

Jean-Luc Cappozzo & Geraldine Keller: Air Prints
by Eyal Hareuveni
The collaborative art of French trumpeter Jean-Luc Cappozzo and vocal artist and flutist Géraldine Keller is a sophisticated play with air. Air breathes, gusts, atmospheric waves or windswept labyrinths and the spaces between these air bursts. Cappozzo and Keller subject the ether to their spontaneous whim, often surrender themselves to the surprising fancy of the ether. ...
Jazz: A Blessed Obsession
by Mark Corroto
Jazz listeners travel some strange and beautiful paths. It might have all begun with collectors trying to find a legendary Edison cylinder that New Orleans trumpeter Buddy Bolden--some believe to be the very first jazz musician--may (or may not) have recorded in 1904. Fast forward to modern times, a quick scan of eBay and the exorbitant ...
Harris Eisenstadt: Canada Day III
by AAJ Italy Staff
Dopo la prova notevole in Canada Day Octet, Harris Eisenstadt torna alla formula più frequentata del quintetto, al suo terzo capitolo, con risultati se possibili ancor più affascinanti. Un repertorio molto sofisticato, cesellato con cura in un anno di arrangiamenti ritoccati e un montaggio finale assai lucido, che rende giustizia ad ogni voce strumentale e scava ...
