Paul Shapiro's Ribs and Brisket Revue: Essen
by AAJ Italy Staff
Essen. Come il titolo di una canzone-menù yiddish sulle Catskills Mountains. Ma anche Essen come “mangiare" in tedesco. “Dimmi cosa mangi e ti dirò chi sei", disse nel 1825 Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin, e questa sua famosa frase spicca sul retro della copertina dell'album. Il cibo come espressione di una cultura. Il cibo come primo punto di ...

Paul Shapiro: It's in the Twilight
by Sean Patrick Fitzell
Day's slide into night, the work week's conclusion, and prayers of the Jewish Shabbat inspired saxophonist Paul Shapiro's compositions and arrangements for It's in the Twilight. It is celebratory music, imbued with optimism for change arising at these temporal transformations, a musical salve for these troubled times. Inviting melodic heads develop from Shapiro, combining with fellow ...
Paul Shapiro: It's In The Twilight
by Nic Jones
If this is an example of radical Jewish culture, as Tzadik bills it, then a whole lot of Gentiles would be doing themselves an enormous favour if they tapped into it. Listeners of all cultures from around the world are familiar with the idea of the “keeper," meaning an item that will find a permanent home ...
Paul Shapiro: It's In The Twilight
by Jerry D'Souza
The blessings of the sabbath were clearly upon Paul Shapiro when he wrote the music for and recorded this album. On Midnight Minyan, his first record as a leader, he dwelt on Saturday mornings and the Jewish tradition. This time he turns back the clock to Friday evenings and the glow of twilight that the sabbath ...
Paul Shapiro: It's in the Twilight

Reconvening the same group that made his debut, Midnight Minyan (Tzadik, 2003), so engaging, tenor saxophonist Paul Shapiro's new release is an even more exuberant affair. Combining a wealth of musical styles with the distinctive Jewish flavor that has made John Zorn's Radical Jewish Culture series so unpredictable, Shapiro proves that twilight needn't be a time ...
Paul Shapiro: It's in the Twilight
by Dan McClenaghan

It's an unfair and untrue observation, of course, but saxophonist Paul Shapiro's It's in the Twilight does make a case for ...
