Avishai Cohen: Dark Nights
by Vincenzo Roggero
Disco dalle atmosfere notturne, e non poteva essere diversamente visto il titolo, Dark Nights è stato registrato in una sola giornata, con la musica scritta da Avishai Cohen suonata per la prima volta senza prove o accordi preventivi. Rilassatezza e spontaneità sono dunque le parole d'ordine della registrazione che conferma le doti di intenso trombettista e ...
Expansions: The Dave Liebman Group: Samsara
by Dan Bilawsky
Trying to keep up with all of saxophonist Dave Liebman's musical exploits? Good luck. A year doesn't seem to go by when Liebman doesn't release multiple recordings with different bands on different labels. Take 2014 for example: it's a year that has already seen his big band-based A Tribute To Wayne Shorter (Mama Records, 2014), an ...

Frank Lowe: Out Loud
by Mark Corroto
Musical archeology has become somewhat of a trend these days. It might be explained, in part by the rebirth of vinyl and the excavation of long out-of-print titles, but also there are scores of devoted collectors who've discovered unpublished recordings of significant artists. For the serially neglected avant-garde of jazz, some of these finds have been ...
Gianni Gagliardi: Nomadic Nature
by Luigi Sforza
Sin dalle prime note di contrabbasso, che mantiene un pedale e introducono “Paris," l'appassionato di Ornette Coleman esulta. Scorrono altre tracce -"L'ironie d'une Jolie Prisse De Téte," dove alberga una definizione sonora di tipo iberico, moderna e spavaldamente veloce, “Macanudo Man," una specie di funk sospeso tra la possibilità di farsi fusion e l'impossibilità di appiatirsi ...
Bill Dixon: An In-depth Look into the Accomplishments, Philosophies, and Convictions of the Man
by Frank Rubolino
When one reflects on the innovators who were fundamental in propelling the second wave of the new music movement in the 1960s, Bill Dixon's name always appears near the top of the list. His accomplishments as a musician and educator are vast, a small sampling of which includes his work as architect of the Jazz Composers' ...
Cortex: Live
by Glenn Astarita
As the marketing info implies, this Scandinavian quartet summons remembrances of the Ornette Coleman ensemble featuring Don Cherry performing on cornet. Yet by no means are these gentlemen copycats. Hence, each composition imparts a different story, whether the artists are melding an open-air sound with bursting breakouts and idiosyncratic intonations or generating aggressive free-form escapades on ...
Jon Irabagon: Examining All The Angles
by R.J. DeLuke
Saxophonist Jon Irabagon likes challenges in music; likes attempting different things. He's not opposed to things traditional, but would prefer to come at music and sounds from different angles. He enjoys the journey; enjoys experiencing the results. At 35, he's on the go all the time, ubiquitous on the New York City music scene. ...
Mostly Other People Do the Killing: Blue
by Maurizio Comandini
Una domanda sorge spontanea: ma con questo Blue cosa volevano dimostrare? Il gruppo di Moppa Elliott si è scelto da subito un nome molto intrigante, Mostly Other People Do the Killing, che di sicuro non li fa passare inosservati. Poi, dal 2003, il quartetto ha cominciato un percorso artistico molto interessante che per certi versi fa ...
Jimmy Giuffre 3 & 4: New York Concerts
by Giuseppe Segala
Documento di importanza storica, portato alla preziosa pubblicazione dalla tenacia del produttore Zev Feldman che lo ha rinvenuto nel 2012 nell'archivio di George Klabin, presidente dell'etichetta Resonace Records, New York Concerts rimedia a una lacuna nella produzione di Jimmy Giuffre e nel contempo dà modo di ascoltare alcune tra le sue musiche più significative. A renderle ...
