Martin Küchen/Jon Rune Strøm/Tollef Østvang: Melted Snow
by John Sharpe
Not Quite All Included or Some Included might be appropriate names for the trio of Swedish saxophonist Martin Küchen, and Norwegian bassist Jon Rune Strøm and drummer Tollef Østvang. Reason being that the repertoire on Melted Snow partially replicates that on Satan in Plain Clothes (Clean Feed, 2015) by All Included, which comprises the same threesome ...
Dave Burrell, Steve Swell: Turning Point
by Maurizio Zerbo
Indagando ancora una volta nella memoria storica statunitense, Dave Burrell e Steve Swell continuano a trarre spunti musicali dalla guerra civile americana. Ricontestualizzati con eccelsa raffinatezza e gusto musicale, la strumentazione e i temi marziali dell'800 vengono letteralmente ristrutturati nel segno dell'ottica jazzistica. È stata così compiuta un'operazione discografica intelligente oltre che inusuale, rivolta a collegare ...
Convergence Quartet: Owl Jacket
by John Sharpe
Owl Jacket forms the fourth release over a nine year period from the Convergence Quartet. At the outset, few would have predicted that it would become a going concern, uniting as it did two unknown young English improvisers in pianist Alexander Hawkins and bassist Dominic Lash and two of the brighter emerging talents on the New ...
Karl Berger/Kirk Knuffke: Moon
by John Sharpe
Cornetist Kirk Knuffke joins veteran German vibraphonist Karl Berger for a poised meditative duet on Moon. The origins of the set lie in a meeting at a concert celebrating drummer Ed Blackwell in New York City after which Berger invited Knuffke to his Creative Music Studio to teach. So successful was the endeavor that the duo ...
Howard Riley: 10.11.12
by John Sharpe
English pianist Howard Riley has found a late career champion in the Lithuanian No Business imprint. 10:11:12 constitutes his fourth release in as many years. In the liner to his previous album Live With Repertoire (2013), the pianist explained that he likes to characterize his gigs into with/without repertoire. As such this outing falls mainly into ...
Paul Hubweber / Frank Paul Schubert / Alexander von Schlippenbach / Clayton Thomas / Willi Kellers: Intricacies
by John Sharpe
As titles go, Intricacies stands as one of the more appropriate. Not so much in the sense of obscurity or being difficult to understand, but rather with reference to the entanglements engendered by the ear stretching five way interplay. Recorded in the German capital's B-Flat club in early 2014 the 2 CD set captures a multi-generational ...
Stefan Keune/Dominic Lash/Steve Noble: Fractions
by John Sharpe
German reedman Stefan Keune has shown a strong affinity for British improv since making a connection with drummer Paul Lytton in 1990. Since then his discography records a number of dates with guitarist John Russell, including appearances at London's now dormant Freedom of the City festival. This limited edition LP, recorded at Russell's Mopomoso gathering at ...
Gianni Lenoci, Kent Carter, Bill Elgart: Plaything
by Libero Farnè
Ancor più di altre incisioni più o meno recenti, Plaything conferma la dimensione “internazionale" della musica di Gianni Lenoci. Non solo perché il pianista barese, per quanto solitamente appartato e schivo, non esposto quanto si vorrebbe nel circuito concertistico, si relaziona e dialoga abitualmente con improvvisatori stranieri d'indiscussa levatura, ma soprattutto per la grana qualitativa e ...
Ted Daniel's Energy Module: Innerconnection
by Vincenzo Roggero
Innerconnection è l'ennesimo capitolo della preziosa opera di recupero da parte della label lituana No Business nei confronti di artisti di valore non sempre adeguatamente riconosciuti o protagonisti di lavori comparsi come meteore nel panorama discografico dell'epoca. È il caso di questa formazione di alto profilo assemblata dal trombettista Ted Daniel, e messa su vinile nell'autunno ...
Dave Burrell / Steve Swell: Turning Point
by John Sharpe
Although firmly associated with the avant-garde, pianist Dave Burrell often harkens back to pre-bop styles in his execution. On Turning Point he explicitly acknowledges such sources in his writing too. Perhaps that's appropriate in a sequence inspired by the American Civil War -what Burrell terms a war to end slavery. While composer in residence at Philadelphia's ...
