Schlippenbach Trio: Features
by Maurizio Zerbo
Quindici brevi bozzetti testimoniano la libertà espressiva di tre menti culturalmente aperte quali sono quelle di Alexander von Schlippenbach, Evan Parker e Paul Lovens, protese verso l'ignoto. C'è tutto in questo CD: slancio, energia, volatile progettualità, elementi precipui di una musica materica che vola in alto verso forme astratte ed atonali. Gli esiti espressivi di questi ...

by Angelo Leonardi
Prossimo ai settanta Mark Harvey continua a guidare l'Aardvark Jazz Orchestra che ha fondato 42 anni fa. La formazione è poco nota fuori degli Stati Uniti ma vanta un percorso glorioso, documentato da dodici album, di cui sette incisi per la Leo Records.

John Butcher: So Far
by Sammy Stein
Saxophonist John Butcher's career could have taken an academic path. He completed a Ph.D in theoretical physics--Charmed Quarks to be precise--but left the academic world behind shortly thereafter. As a saxophonist, Butcher has played with and collaborated with many musicians. He is not afraid to try completely off the wall musical experimentation.
Tampere Jazz Happening 2013
by John Ephland
Tampere Jazz Happening Tampere, Finland October 31-November 3, 2013 It all started with a whimper. Or, rather, a quiet, almost serene drum roll. You knew things were going to eventually explode, but, of course, the getting there was half the fun. The Danish drum duo Toto was working in tandem in what ...
Lana Trio: Lana Trio
by Eyal Hareuveni
The Norwegian groupLana Trio attempts to find a delicate balance between intense, free jazz to exploration of more open-ended and non-idiomatic free improvisations. The three musicians began to play together after meeting at Sund Folk college in 2007. Trombonist Henrik Munkeby Nørstebø is the most experienced player of the three. He collaborates regularly with Swedish master ...
Kitchen Orchestra with Alexander von Schlippenbach
by Eyal Hareuveni
The Norwegian, Stavanger-based Kitchen Orchestra may be one of Europe's best kept secrets. A collective of local musicians who come from classical, jazz, free improvisation and electronics.

Vandeweyer / Van Hove / Lovens / Blume: Quat Live At Hasselt
by John Sharpe
In one sense the cover of Quat Live At Hasselt could act as a metaphor for what lies within, due to its focus on a narrow spectral range. At first glance the black appears uniform, punctuated only by the white text. But on further scrutiny, an intricately patterned network of various shades of grey becomes apparent, ...
Marco Eneidi: Pallettes of Color & Sound
by Anna Poczatek
Marco Eneidi seems to become a forgotten artist. Which is odd, at the very least, because his improvisation workshops are attended by the first seat of the Tonkünstler-Orchester Niederösterreich, and because, in just the past few years, the saxophonist has played with artists including pianist Cecil Taylor, guitarist Joe Morris, reed multi-instrumentalists Roscoe Mitchell, Peter Brötzmann ...
Sudo Quartet: Live at Banlieue Bleue
by John Sharpe
Such is the strength and conviction with which the Sudo Quartet performs that thoughts immediately turn to how they developed such a cohesive group sound. With no liners and no information on the web, the genesis of the unit remains a mystery, though the same foursome feature on four tracks on bassist Joelle Leandre's At the ...
