Giovanni Guidi/Gianluca Petrella/Louis Sclavis/Gerald Cleaver: Ida Lupino

Read "Ida Lupino" reviewed by Mark Sullivan

by Mark Sullivan

This largely improvised quartet project is built upon the improvisational rapport of Italians pianist Giovanni Guidi and trombonist Gianluca Petrella. In addition to their work in trumpeter Enrico Rava's band--they appear together on Tribe (ECM, 2011)--they have worked as a duo which seeks encounters with fellow improvisers. Here they are brought together with American drummer Gerald ...

Ellery Eskelin Trio: Willisau - Live

Read "Willisau - Live" reviewed by Giuseppe Segala

by Giuseppe Segala

Ci sono musicisti preziosi nel panorama del jazz contemporaneo. Il loro valore sta non solo in quello che fanno, ma nel rapporto di passione che mantengono con la vicenda della musica neroamericana e improvvisata, nella riflessione e fruizione profonda che li connette alla storia di questa forma artistica. Ellery Eskelin è senz'altro uno di questi: l'ascolto ...

Tito Mangialajo Rantzer e il Questionario di Proust

Read "Tito Mangialajo Rantzer e il Questionario di Proust" reviewed by AAJ Staff

by AAJ Staff

All About Jazz Italia: Il tratto principale della mia musica. Tito Mangialajo Rantzer: Che sia sincera e con lo sguardo verso l'ignoto e il rischio. Ma anche che sia in qualche modo legata alla tradizione, al suono di quella musica che chiamiamo jazz, della quale sono terribilmente innamorato. AAJI: La qualità che ...

Ron Stabinsky: Free for One

Read "Free for One" reviewed by Budd Kopman

by Budd Kopman

The first thing to note about pianist Ron Stabinsky's debut recording Free For One is the quality of sound. The piano's lows are solid and centered, the mid-range clear and very fast while the highs sing. This is how piano should be recorded--not only is it a good test for the output end (speakers) of the ...

Carla Bley: Shoe Leather, Mystery & Moxie

Read "Carla Bley: Shoe Leather, Mystery & Moxie" reviewed by Ian Patterson

by Ian Patterson

This article was first published at All About Jazz on July 28, 2016. With the passing of time. That's roughly how the title of Carla Bley's second trio album for ECM translates. Bley turned eighty a few months before the release of Andando el Tiempo but the passing years, if anything, have sharpened her ...

Glauco Venier si racconta con Miniatures

Read "Glauco Venier si racconta con Miniatures" reviewed by Giuseppe Segala

by Giuseppe Segala

Miniatures è un piano solo. Ma è anche qualcosa di più, per il modo in cui sono state inserite nel tessuto narrativo le sculture sonore azionate dallo stesso Glauco Venier e per come sono saldate al pensiero che sorregge la musica. La musica respira anche attraverso il dialogo tra pianoforte e sculture sonore, che tracciano una ...

Greg Burk: Clean Spring

Read "Clean Spring" reviewed by Budd Kopman

by Budd Kopman

Pianist Greg Burk has built quite a discography as a leader, including solo albums and his latest, Clean Spring will only further burnish his reputation as a deep player and thinker. In a very real sense, this album is a homage to Burk's mentor Paul Bley, who had an obvious impact of Burk's musical attitude and ...

I 10 CD nel CD-Player di... Matteo Bortone

Read "I 10 CD nel CD-Player di... Matteo Bortone" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero

by Vincenzo Roggero

01. Tigran Hamasyan -Luys I Luso (ECM -2015). Una delle ultime uscite che preferisco; per la scrittura, ma soprattutto per l'atmosfera cupa che mi tiene inchiodato. Molto poetico e ipnotico. 02. Keith Jarret -Life Between the Exit Signs (Vortex -1967). A mio avviso il miglior album di Jarrett, il suo primo ...

I 10 CD nel CD-Player di... Caroline Davis

Read "I 10 CD nel CD-Player di... Caroline Davis" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero

by Vincenzo Roggero

01. Arthur Russell-Tower of Meaning (Chatham Square -1983). Ho cominciato ad ascoltare Arthur Russell nel 2006. Originariamente pensato come sonorizzazione di un lavoro di Robert Wilson è diventato un disco che funziona autonomamente. Non ci sono grandiosi eventi ritmici né particolari modulazioni, ma si possono avvertire movimenti continui che danno un senso al tutto. È ...
