Convergence Quartet: Owl Jacket

Read "Owl Jacket" reviewed by Stefano Merighi


Il sodalizio del Convergence Quartet, benchè saltuario, rimane vitale e convincente, come dimostra questo Owl Jacket, che offre un repertorio vario e ben strutturato, arrivando a toccare le corde di un lirismo accorato, come ad esempio nell'iniziale “Dogbe Na Wo Lo," vicina a certe cose del Don Cherry “folklorico."

Bobby Bradford, Frode Gjerstad Quartet: The Delaware River

Read "Light The Early Years 1975-1989" reviewed by Mark Corroto
