Ramón López: 40 Springs In Paris
by Mark Corroto
To say that Spanish-born Ramón López is an in-demand drummer would be an understatement. His recent collaborators span a wide spectrum of creative music, including Satoko Fujii, Natsuki Tamura, Ivo Perelman, Barry Guy, Agustí Fernández and Angelica Sanchez--and that list reaches well beyond the realms of jazz and free improvisation. López has performed in intimate ensembles ...

Satoko Fujii Tokyo Trio: Dream a Dream
by Alberto Bazzurro
Ormai da diversi anni ricevere e ascoltare a ritmo battente nuovi lavori di Satoko Fujii è un'abitudine che peraltro, salvo rarissimi casi, ci risulta sempre gradita. L'occhio della pianista nipponica verso la musica, con o senza il suo pendant fisiologico, Natsuki Tamura, possiede infatti una profondità, un'intenzionalità di gesto, e ovviamente concettuale, che le consentono di ...
Satoko Fujii: Altitude 1100 Meters
by John Sharpe
Even after over one hundred leadership dates, Japanese pianist Satoko Fujii still finds new avenues down which to take her invigorating music. For the first time she has composed for a string ensemble, though the inclusion of her own piano, as well as the drums of regular collaborator Akira Horikoshi, swiftly usher this set out of ...
Natsuki Tamura, Satoko Fujii, Ramon Lopez: Yama Kawa Umi
by Alberto Bazzurro
Il batterista franco-spagnolo Ramon Lopez, uno dei più personali della scena avant, specificatamente in quel suo approccio che definiremmo “tellurico" all'elemento percussivo, senza per questo mai esondare, si inserisce--si innesta, meglio ancora--su un duo d'arte e di vita largamente collaudato come quello formato da Satoko Fujii e Natsuki Tamura, generando un dialogo a tre voci decisamente ...
Keiji Haino / Natsuki Tamura: What Happened There?
by Mark Corroto
Unexpected one-off collaborations in creative music have often thrilled and captivated listeners, yielding results as unpredictable as they are unforgettable. Consider Embraced (Pablo Live, 1978) by Cecil Taylor and Mary Lou Williams, the genre-spanning brilliance of Duke Ellington & John Coltrane (Impulse!, 1963), or the boundary-pushing sonic landscapes of My Life in the Bush of Ghosts ...
Michael Bisio, Fred Moten/Brandon Lopez & Rainer Brüninghausen
by Maurice Hogue
There seems to be a bit of growing trend to exploring the confluence of poetry and jazz, and this is right down my alley. New York poet Fred Moten and bassist Brandon Lopez have released two albums with Gerald Cleaver that feature stirring free improvisation in lockstep with Moten's political and questioning words. Now Moten and ...
Ran Blake, Tim Berne, Satoko Fujii & Clemens Kuratle
by Maurice Hogue
Another of those “found" albums is the highlight of this episode. In 2006 master pianist Ran Blake and guitarist Dave “Knife" Fabris were performing at The Bimhuis in Amsterdam. After the gig the club gave them a recording of their performance, and as often happens, that disappeared. It finally emerged during the pandemic when Fabris found ...
