Self Imposed Exile: Live from Steinway Hall

Read "Live from Steinway Hall" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro

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.

Cameron Mizell: Negative Spaces

Read "Negative Spaces" reviewed by Jerome Wilson

by Jerome Wilson

Ralph Alessi: Quiver

Read "Quiver" reviewed by Stefano Merighi

by Stefano Merighi

Il quartetto di Ralph Alessi mantiene due coordinate espressive ben distinte. Dal vivo, il repertorio ben compatto, per lo più introspettivo, si accende con una passione inaspettata, che realizza dunque una concezione dialettica della musica. Il magistero tecnico dei solisti si afferma a partire da sobri materiali di partenza e si evolve con irresistibili conversazioni e ...

Harvey Valdes: PointCounterPoint

Read "PointCounterPoint" reviewed by Glenn Astarita

by Glenn Astarita

It makes sense that experimental guitar hero and studio whiz David Torn would be involved to whatever extent on guitarist Harvey Valdes (Butch Morris, Sean Sonderegger's Magically Inclined) debut solo album. Torn mastered this studio session and the parallel here is that both guitarists tend to rip boundaries to shreds. Here, Valdes and violinist Sana Nagano ...

Meet Don Shire

Read "Meet Don Shire" reviewed by Tessa Souter and Andrea Wolper

by Tessa Souter and Andrea Wolper

Don Shire's club-hopping habit started in Pittsburgh, but his introduction to the capital of jazz was a 1971 Freddie Hubbard gig at New York jazz institution, the Village Vanguard. And he's still going strong 45 years later. One concert particularly stands out. “When it was over, the people just looked at each other. The feeling was, ...

Fred Hersch Trio: Sunday Night at the Vanguard

Read "Sunday Night at the Vanguard" reviewed by Angelo Leonardi

by Angelo Leonardi

"Questo è di gran lunga l'album migliore che ho realizzato in trio--dice Fred Hersch -e rappresenta al meglio il nostro modo di suonare." Ogni musicista tende a pensare allo stesso modo e la frase ci lascia perplessi perchè non è facile superare album strepitosi come Floating (Palmetto, 2014) realizzato in studio e Alive at ...

Natalie Cressman and Mike Bono: Etchings in Amber

Read "Etchings in Amber" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey

by C. Michael Bailey

The admonition, “Youth is wasted on the young" is neither accurate nor applicable to Natalie Cressman. Cressman, a vocalist/trombonist/composer/arranger is a modern day Renaissance woman who wears many hats and all of them beautifully. She is a standing member of the Trey Anastasio Band, as well as Jesus on the Mainline. Cressman has recorded two previous ...
