Matt Wilson Quartet + John Medeski: Gathering Call

Read "Gathering Call" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero

by Vincenzo Roggero

La partenza con un brano di Duke Ellington non è solo l'omaggio ad un gigante della musica del Novecento ma un vero e proprio manifesto programmatico del Matt Wilson Quartet. In Gathering Call ritroviamo alcuni tratti distintivi del pensiero musicale di Duke: la leggerezza elevata ad arte, l'abilità nel condensare in brani di pochi minuti mondi ...

Franklin Kiermyer: Joy And Consequence

Read "Franklin Kiermyer: Joy And Consequence" reviewed by Ian Patterson

by Ian Patterson

The tradition. It's common jazz terminology. What does it mean, though, to be “in the tradition"? The term usually confers on the musician a stamp of authenticity and infers working knowledge of the dominant idiom, as typified by the jazz cannon. It also perhaps implies a certain orthodoxy. It's strange to think, however, that a music ...

Taylor Ho Bynum 7-tette: Navigation

Read "Navigation" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero

by Vincenzo Roggero

L'intento--racconta lo stesso Taylor Ho Bynum nelle note di copertina--è quello di massimizzare la libertà dei musicisti nell'ambito delle sfide poste dalla rigidità e dalla struttura delle composizioni. A tal fine organizza Navigation (The Complete Firehouse 12 Recordings) in questo modo: una seduta dal vivo registrata il sette dicembre 2012 con il sestetto e fissata su ...

Mark Taylor Launches New Quintet

Mark Taylor Launches New Quintet

The Cosmosamatics: Jazz-Maalika

Read "Jazz-Maalika" reviewed by Ian Patterson

by Ian Patterson

The Cosmosamatics--an ever-evolving ensemble co-led by multi-reedists Sonny Simmons and Michael Marcus--was founded in 2000, though the seeds were arguably planted many years earlier. Half a century ago, Simmons was cutting his teeth with multi-reedists Prince Lasha, Eric Dolphy and others of the so-called free jazz movement. Marcus made his name in the avant/free circles of ...

Julian Waterfall Pollack Trio: Waves Of Albion

Read "Waves Of Albion" reviewed by Bruce Lindsay

by Bruce Lindsay

Waves Of Albion is the second album from the Julian Waterfall Pollack Trio. The musical talent and imagination displayed on the trio's debut, Infinite Playground (Junebeat Records, 2010), makes album number two an exciting prospect. The young pianist and his band mates don't disappoint. Pollack has filled the time between albums with sideman appearances ...

Jon Irabagon Trio: It Takes All Kinds

Read "It Takes All Kinds" reviewed by Glenn Astarita

by Glenn Astarita

This trio radiated Olympian style heroics akin to an endurance race on Foxy (Hot Cup, 2010). It was an arousing exercise in energy and power. And while drummer Barry Altschul, and bassist Mark Helias are time-honored jazz warriors-- respectively appearing on many landmark albums--saxophonist Jon Irabagon is now firmly seated with the upper-echelon of modern saxophone ...

Keith Jarrett: Arbour Zena

Read "Keith Jarrett: Arbour Zena" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

Given his overall focus on just two projects over the past three decades--with the exception of relatively rare diversions into the classical world or recordings like Jasmine (2010), an intimate duo date with bassist Charlie Haden--it's easy to forget that there was a time when pianist Keith Jarrett was not just one of the most innovative ...
