Fred Hersch: Solo
by Maurizio Zerbo
Compiuti i sessanta anni, Fred Hersch ha ormai conseguito la meritata notorietà che però lo ha portato alla sovraesposizione discografica. Questo suo recente progetto è imperniato sulla rielaborazione di un vasto repertorio che include jazz, bossa nova, musica eurocolta, pop. Come era lecito attendersi da un musicista di vaglia come lui, prevale la logica della decostruzione ...

Mike Holober: Balancing Act
by Dan Bilawsky
Conceptualizing and creating music is a delicate balancing act, leaving composers to strive for symmetry between head and heart, reasoning and intuition, and structure and freedom.

Fred Hersch: Solo
by Mark Sullivan

This album documents a live performance from August, 2014, which was not originally intended for release. But when Hersch listened to it, he changed his mind. “I firmly believe this may be the ...
David Berkman: Old Friends And New Friends
by Budd Kopman
With Old Friends and New Friends, pianist/composer David Berkman reunites with the Palmetto label, as well as Matt Balitsaris, who both founded the label and was the recording engineer. Berkman nostalgically describes the process of making the earlier recordings as a group undertaking where disparate personalties are melded into a whole to produce a distinct sound. ...
