Ellery Eskelin Trio: Willisau - Live
by Giuseppe Segala
Ci sono musicisti preziosi nel panorama del jazz contemporaneo. Il loro valore sta non solo in quello che fanno, ma nel rapporto di passione che mantengono con la vicenda della musica neroamericana e improvvisata, nella riflessione e fruizione profonda che li connette alla storia di questa forma artistica.

by Mark Corroto
Listening to Flux by saxophonist Quinsin Nachoff, it's easy to see in your mind's eye the DNA double helix beautifully spinning in the dark space of the human cell.

Componente da un po' di tempo degli irriverenti Mostly Other People Do the Killing (con i quali lo abbiamo ascoltato dal vivo a Saalfelden nel 2015, una prestazione davvero pazzesca), il musicista ha al suo attivo anche collaborazioni con Peter ...

by Alberto Bazzurro
Due suite di poco meno di un quarto d'ora ciascuna, per un totale di 26:42, compongono questo singolare album in cui fra i performer compare anche colui (Shaun Sutkus) che, oltre a curare la registrazione, interagisce in diretta (il disco deriva da un live newyorchese del dicembre 2014) con i due musicisti veri e propri.
