Mette Rasmussen/Chris Corsano: All The Ghosts At Once
by Mark Corroto
Today's hypothesis states that all free jazz improvisation demands the musicians maintain the music's vigor like a juggler, to all appearances, keeping all the balls in the air at once.

But consider her words: “The worthlessness of Earthly things/The Ditty is that Nature Sings -/And then -enforces their delight/Til Synods ...
Evan Parker - Paul Dunmall - Tony Bianco: Extremes
by Glenn Astarita
In the album notes, eminent drummer Tony Bianco advises that the various discourses of this program “were about the times we live in." It's a fitting correlation to the album moniker, featuring two legendary British improvisers, saxophonists Paul Dunmall and Evan Parker engaging in kinetic and at times, calamitous dialogues. Moreover, the Canadian label Red Toucan ...

Paul Rogers/Robin Fincker/Fabien Duscombs: Whahay

Do they triumph? Without question, yes. Rogers, a veteran of the London scene and bands of Keith Tippett, Paul Dunmall, and Elton ...
