Nicole Mitchell's Black Earth Strings: Renegades

Nicole Mitchell Indigo Trio: Anaya
by AAJ Italy Staff
La spiritualità nella musica è spesso fraintesa, talvolta abilmente celata dietro forme e confezioni consolidate, altre volte dichiarata prima ancora che praticata, chiaramente sofferente dello scollamento da un lessico funzionale condiviso: accade così - tanto per fare un esempio - che per alcuni Jan Garbarek con l'Hilliard Ensemble sia il massimo del misticismo, per altri una ...
