Rob Reddy: Bechet: Our Contemporary
by Glenn Astarita
Prominent New York City progressive saxophonist and composer, Rob Reddy contemporizes innovative soprano saxophonist Sidney Bechet's artistic persona with his large ensemble, featuring several longtime associates, violinist Charles Burnham, bassist Dom Richards and drummer Pheeroan Aklaff. Reddy doesn't simply restate the past, but more importantly intertwines the trad jazz component with a scintillating and upbeat commingling ...
John Patitucci: Brooklyn
by Luca Muchetti
Il ritorno al passato di John Patitucci. Basterebbe il titolo, Brooklyn, per evocare esordi e gioventù del musicista statunitense, ma la scelta di utilizzare il solo basso elettrico in tutte e undici le tracce di questo nuovo album la dice lunga e ci libera da ogni possibile titubanza sulla direzione intrapresa dal bassista del Wayne Shorter ...
Mark Weinstein: In Jerusalem
by Hrayr Attarian
Flutist Mark Weinstein has made a career of fusing world music elements with jazzy sensibilities with finesse and style. On In Jerusalem he tackles the rich Hasidic heritage of song. He and his band interpret both secular and religious tunes as well as original compositions with delightful spontaneity and ethereal diapason. The Sabbath hymn ...
Yoshie Fruchter: Schizophonia: Cantorial Recordings Reimagined
by Dave Wayne
A stalwart of New York City's astoundingly creative Judaic music scene, multi-instrumentalist and composer Yoshie Fruchter specializes in one thing: moving on from what he's already accomplished. Though he has two genre-smashing albums of edgy, Judaic jazz- rock-prog fusion on John Zorn's Tzadik label under his belt (Blasphemy and Other Serious Crimes, Tzadik Records, 2011, and ...

Andrew McCormack: First Light
by Vincenzo Roggero
L'origine britannica e la residenza newyorchese costituiscono il fil rouge che attraversa First Light album nel quale il pianista Andrew McCormack fonde in maniera convincente l'aplomb, la compostezza, l'eleganza anglosassone con la vivacità, la memoria storica, lo sguardo curioso di chi guarda al futuro tipici della scena della grande mela, scena da cui provengono peraltro il ...
Michael Bisio: Accortet
by Mark Corroto
There is a cartoon circulating the internet that depicts a criminal suspect being interrogated by police. Also in the room is a jazz bassist. The detective tells his partner, “he'll talk, everyone talks during the bass solo." That may be true, unless the bassist is Michael Bisio. Whether performing with pianist Matthew Shipp or saxophonist Ivo ...
EJ Strickland: The Undying Spirit
by Angelo Leonardi
A sei anni da In This Day (Strick Muzik, 2009), suo debutto in veste di leader, E.J. Strickland ritorna in sala d'incisione con un organico quasi identico, ma senza ospiti, confermando i suoi partner abituali: il fratello gemello Marcus, il pianista Luis Perdomo e il sassofonista contralto Jaleel Shaw. L'unico cambiamento è la sostituzione del bassista ...
Josh Deutsch, Nico Soffiato: Reverse Angle
by Vincenzo Roggero
Benché tra i nove brani di Reverse Angle si intrufolino Beethoven e Gershwin possiamo dire che l'intrusione apparentemente bizzarra funziona perché l'intero disco suona come un Bignami dello standard moderno. Esecuzioni contenute nel tempo -solo in due occasioni vicine ai cinque minuti di durata, l'intero album meno di quaranta -melodie in bella vista, organizzazione e sviluppo ...
