Elias Stemeseder / Christian Lillinger: Umbra II
by John Sharpe
Austrian pianist Elias Stemeseder and German drummer Christian Lillinger capture the Zeitgeist in a nervy, occasionally anxiety inducing, pairing under the moniker Umbra. Although extant as a duet, they often supplement the numbers with like-minded collaborators, and on Umbra II trumpeter Peter Evans and bassist Russell Hall take to the full on interaction like ducks to ...
Rodrigo Amado: La Grande Crue
by John Sharpe
Inviting guests to supplement his core bands has proven a winning formula for Portuguese saxophonist Rodrigo Amado in the past, and the gambit bears fruit again on La Grande Crue. This time out, French pianist Eve Risser is the plus one, following in the footsteps of trombonist Jeb Bishop, trumpeter Peter Evans and pianist Alexander von ...
Jon Irabagon: Server Farm
by Mike Jurkovic
Warning! Warning! Heads up! Spoiler alert! Server Farm has the potential to take your head to some random places. Some alarming (as all artists should be these days), Some cacophonous. Some claustrophobic. Others freeing, fleeting, fervent. Server Farm, saxophonist/composer Jon Irabagon's heatedly precise and prescient head-on clash with the threat of AI blisters the ...
Ran Blake, Tim Berne, Satoko Fujii & Clemens Kuratle
by Maurice Hogue
Another of those “found" albums is the highlight of this episode. In 2006 master pianist Ran Blake and guitarist Dave “Knife" Fabris were performing at The Bimhuis in Amsterdam. After the gig the club gave them a recording of their performance, and as often happens, that disappeared. It finally emerged during the pandemic when Fabris found ...

Libero Farnè's Best Jazz Albums Of 2024
by Libero Farnè
The list I have compiled does not follow any order of preference. The albums are organized alphabetically by artist. In my opinion, every album on this list is of great interest. I decided to include a few U.S. albums, though I had to leave out many other deserving ones, as well as three Italian albums that ...
I Dischi del 2024 secondo Ludovico Granvassu
by Ludovico Granvassu
Spesso molti articoli sulle “migliori uscite dell'anno" iniziano con una premessa quasi apologetica ("questi non sono necessariamente 'i migliori album dell'anno,' ma 'i miei preferiti';" “è tutto soggettivo;" “domani avrei scelto titoli diversi;" “ho potuto selezionare solo dieci album," ecc.)? Queste dichiarazioni sembrano riflettere il disagio del redattore, costretto a riassumere un vasto ecosistema artistico selezionando ...
Ludovico Granvassu's Garden of Jazzy Delights 2024
by Ludovico Granvassu
Have you noticed how many “best of the year" listicles start with an apologetic preamble ("these are not necessarily 'the best albums of the year' but 'my favorites';" “it's all subjective;" “tomorrow I might have chosen different titles;" “I could only select ten albums" etc.)? Those disclaimers channel the writer's discomfort of having to summarize a ...
