Paul Motian: Live at the Village Vanguard - Vol. 1

Read "Live at the Village Vanguard - Vol. 1" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Un'occhiata ai titoli dei brani, con quello “Standard Time" in bella evidenza, seguito da “If You Could See Me Now", mi ha fatto temere il peggio. Non sono infatti un grande estimatore degli standard. E dunque ... Non appena ho messo il CD nel lettore, tuttavia, i miei timori sono stati spazzati via da un incipit ...

Paul Motian: Live at the Village Vanguard, Vol. 1

Read "Live at the Village Vanguard, Vol. 1" reviewed by Francis Lo Kee


What has always been beautiful about drummer/composer Paul Motian is his use of space or silence. His concept seems to be more about letting creative voices come through the total texture. Sometimes the voice is the drum, but sometimes it is sax or piano and Motian plays ideally, regardless of textural setting. Speaking of piano, Masabumi ...

Paul Motian: Time and Time Again

Read "Time and Time Again" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


C’è un qualcosa di indefinito nella musica di Paul Motian che sembra strettamente connesso alla nozione di tempo. Sarà quel modo così parsimonioso e così poco percussivo di suonare (e mai come in questo caso il verbo rende l’idea della musicalità insita nel tocco del maestro), saranno quelle composizioni scritte con spiccato gusto per la dilatazione ...

Paul Motian: Time and Time Again

Read "Time and Time Again" reviewed by John Kelman


One sax, one guitar, one set of drums. Who could imagine that such a spare combination could sound so rich, so complete? Drummer Paul Motian's collaboration with guitarist Bill Frisell and saxophonist Joe Lovano is well into its third decade together but, instead of settling into comfortable predictability, Time and Time Again finds the trio continuing ...
