Silke Eberhard Trio: Being-A-Ning
by John Sharpe
Adventurous German saxophonist Silke Eberhard has long favored the trio format as a proving ground, even as she splits her time with her larger Potsa Lotsa ensemble, and other projects. With bassist Jan Roder and drummer Kay Lübke, she has cultivated a rapport that feels both intuitive and restless. Being-A-Ning, the group's fifth release--each one bearing ...
Ravi Coltrane Quartet: Live at Jazz Alley in Seattle
by Paul Rauch
Ravi Coltrane Quartet Jazz Alley Seattle, WA August 21, 2025 I suppose there are still those who attend Ravi Coltrane sets out of curiosity, or some attempt to somehow access the Coltrane legacy in real time. It's true that the son of John Coltrane and Alice Coltrane has not been one ...
Paolo Angeli: Between Avant-garde and Sardinian Traditions
by Libero Farnè
I had not interviewed Paolo Angeli since February 2007, when the Sardinian musician had already moved on from Bologna, a scene that gave him crucial formative experiences and laid the groundwork for his artistic maturity. Since then, Angeli has embraced a wide range of musical experiences and collaborations, steadily building his international reputation through ...
Nils Agnas: Nils Agnas Koper Sig Ur En Kris
by Vincenzo Roggero
Nils Agnas, non ancora trentenne batterista svedese, è il più giovane rappresentante di una famiglia di musicisti che da due generazioni testimonia la vitalità del jazz scandinavo. Entrato in una profonda crisi personale un paio di anni orsono, Nils ha pensato di intraprendere un percorso di rinascita investendo la quasi totalità dei suoi averi nella registrazione ...
Álvaro Torres: Iris
by Angelo Leonardi
Tempus fugit. Quest'album fotografa il debutto professionale a New York del pianista madrileno Álvaro Torres, in trio col batterista Barry Altschul e il contrabbassista John Hébert. La registrazione è del luglio 2023 ma già il mese successivo Torres presentava a Barcellona il quartetto europeo con Tony Malaby al sax tenore, Masa Kamaguchi al contrabbasso e Kresten ...
Cécile McLorin Salvant's Ogresse At Carnegie Hall
by Adam Beaudoin
Cécile McLorin Salvant Carnegie Hall Ogresse New York, NY May 21, 2025 The relationship between jazz and classical music has a long, complicated history. Musicians themselves tend to care more about the music than concepts of genre, and you only need to listen to the echoes of French Impressionism ...
Paolo Angeli: Su "Lema" E Molto Altro
by Libero Farnè
Non avevo intervistato Paolo Angeli dal febbraio 2007, quando il musicista sardo aveva già abbandonato la scena bolognese dove aveva maturato esperienze importanti e formative, di sicuro propedeutiche al raggiungimento della sua pienezza artistica. Da allora Angeli ha affrontato tante situazioni e collaborazioni musicali diverse, vedendo crescere la sua fama internazionale, grazie anche alla ...
Larry Stabbins & Mark Sanders: Cup & Ring
by John Sharpe
Inspired by the 5000 year old Neolithic rock carvings pictured on the sleeve, Cup & Ring opens and closes with brooding, ritualistic pieces in which Larry Stabbins' breathy flute drifts like mist over Mark Sanders' deliberate, processional percussion. These atmospheric bookends, along with similarly spare interludes throughout, frame a set grounded more deeply in the language ...
Ornette Coleman's and Horace Silver's "Lonely Woman" — A Disambiguation
by Artur Moral
Reality is filled with confusion and misunderstandings; some are suggestive or creative, while others are disappointing or, worse, malicious. The jazz world is no stranger to the first type: specific compositions are often confused or misidentified as if they were the same. Usually, this happens because of similar melodies or titles that are sometimes identical. This ...
Freedom Art Quartet: First Dance
by Carl Medsker
Raucous, brash and freewheeling, First Dance by The Freedom Art Quartet is rooted in the past yet fresh and contemporary. The album should sound familiar to those who have ventured outside the mainstream and spent time with Ornette Coleman and the Art Ensemble Of Chicago. Those forces are strong in the band, but labeling them retro ...
