Evan Parker
by John Eyles
In his biography of Robert Wyatt, Different Every Time (Serpent's Tail, 2015), author Marcus O'Dair describes Evan Parker as “perhaps the finest British free-jazz saxophonist of his generation." The only words in that phrase that seasoned Parker followers might take issue with are “perhaps," “British" and “free-jazz," preferring just to describe him as the finest improvising ...
Anemone: A Wing Dissolved In Light
by John Sharpe
Meetings of peripatetic improvisers form regular occurrences in these straitened times, but by uniting a quintet of musicians from three continents, each from different countries, Anemone takes the custom to extremes. Of course free improvisation provides a touchstone which transcends any cultural or language differences. Perhaps the surprise comes in realizing that A Wing Dissolved In ...

Schlippenbach Trio: Warsaw Concert
by John Sharpe
There can't be too many outfits still going strong after 44 years, especially with an unchanged roster. But that's exactly the situation German pianist Alexander von Schlippenbach faces with his trio of countryman Paul Lovens on the drum stool and the legendary Evan Parker on tenor saxophone, give or take an occasional bassist. As a consequence ...
La discografia completa di Gianni Lenoci
by Donatello Tateo
Gianni Lenoci (Monopoli, 6/6/1963), pianista, compositore, didatta, performer multimediale ed artista visuale, è personalità artistica inquieta e sperimentatrice, come evidenziato dalla ormai pluridecennale corrispondenza empatica con alcuni compagni di avventure (in particolare Steve Potts, Kent Carter, Gianni Mimmo), e dal suo progetto Hocus Pocus, gruppo a geometria variabile dal trio fino alla dimensione orchestrale.

Schlippenbach Trio al Centro d'Arte Padova
by Vincenzo Roggero
Schlippenbach Trio Cinema Torresino Padova 29.04.2016 Poteva far esplodere i fuochi d'artificio, navigare sulle ali dell'effetto nostalgia, piazzarti sul muso i suoi quarant'anni di storia, e che storia, come forse nessun'altra formazione al mondo può vantare, e via pedalare. Invece lo Schlippenbach Trio ha regalato un concerto di rara misura, rigore ...
Mats Gustafsson: Piano Mating
by Mark Corroto
Sure, saxophonist Mats Gustafsson is a rock star. A star in the same sense that Thurston Moore is a jazz artist or Merzbow generates ambient sounds. It's not so much that we would expect to see those three gentlemen receiving a Grammy Award, but that imitators of their styles will. Someday. In other words, innovators pioneer ...
Made To Break: Before The Code
by Mark Corroto
No band has ever attempted to bridge the sounds of free improvisation, funk, and electronics before Ken Vandermark formed the quartet Made To Break. The groups fourth release Before The Code pushes the musical envelope a bit more into the stratosphere, maybe even into the musical mesosphere. The saxophonist and composer whose credits include ...
