Saxophone Summit: Visitation
by Neri Pollastri
La formazione dei Saxophone Summit esiste ormai da diversi anni. Nella sua prima versione, quella di Gathering of Spirits (Telarc -2004), al fianco di Dave Liebman e Joe Lovano c'era anche lo scomparso Michael Brecker, qui sostituito da Ravi Coltrane (ma la registrazione è del febbraio 2011, mentre dallo scorso anno Coltrane è stato a sua ...
Phil Markowitz, Zach Brock: Perpetuity
by Vincenzo Roggero
La presenza di due batterie e di due bassi (uno acustico e l'altro elettrico), la dovrebbe dire lunga sull'importanza della componente ritmica in Perpetuity. Ma l'indicazione è parzialmente e piacevolmente ingannevole perchè chi si aspettava una groviglio di ritmi, una giungla percussiva poderosa pronta a lanciare in orbita il virtuoso di turno rimane profondamente deluso.
I 10 Cd nel CD Player di... Phil Markowitz
by Vincenzo Roggero
01. Count Basie/Duke Ellington -The Count Meets the Duke (Columbia -1961). Incontro ai massimi livelli. Sicuramente la sfida ha tirato fuori il meglio da tutti i grandi solisti, che suonano con grande personalità e swing, con Basie e Duke insieme a sciorinare ritornelli blues.

A natural, he was quick to connect with musicians in his hometown of Tulsa, Oklahoma. But ...
Andrew Rathbun: Numbers & Letters
by Dan McClenaghan
Toronto-born saxophonist/composer Andrew Rathbun is no stranger to pushing the boundaries. He has released a dozen superb modernistic CDs under his own name, perhaps most notable of these his nod to his fellow Canadian, writer Margaret Atwood, Sculptures (Blue Moon, 2002), and 2009's and Where We Are Now (Steeplechase Records). Rathbun, on all of his previous ...
Saxophone Summit: Visitation

After two recordings for Telarc--2004's Gathering of Spirits, with the late Michael Brecker, and 2008's Seraphic Light, with Ravi Coltrane assuming the position vacated by Brecker following his untimely passing the previous year--Saxophone Summit is back with Visitation.
