Steve Lehman Trio + Craig Taborn: The People I Love
by Mark Corroto
It is easy think about the shock of the new that was bebop when listening to The People I Love by alto saxophonist Steve Lehman's trio. Not that Lehman plays bebop as it was in the 1940s. It took mammals millions of years of evolution to climb down out of trees and fashion tools, but it ...
The Art Ensemble of Chicago: We Are on the Edge: A 50th Anniversary Celebration
by Giuseppe Segala
Quanta storia. Nel 1969 Roscoe Mitchell, Joseph Jarman e il più riluttante Malachi Favors, spinti dalla lungimiranza avventurosa di Lester Bowie, si trasferirono a Parigi, accolti dalla comunità degli artisti e degli appassionati con grande attenzione. Tra questi, c'era il batterista e promotore parigino Claude Delcloo, particolarmente attivo e in contatto fin dal 1968 con l'AACM ...
Matt Mitchell: Phalanx Ambassadors
by Troy Dostert
Pianist Matt Mitchell's music can be appreciated on a number of levels. It's remarkably cerebral, on the one hand, with a conceptual apparatus that sometimes verges on the impenetrable; yet there are also moments in which the many moving parts of his compositions come together in ways that are quite emotionally powerful. And then there's simply ...
The Art Ensemble of Chicago: We Are On The Edge: A 50th Anniversary Celebration
by Karl Ackermann
Bassist Malachi Favors, trumpeter Lester Bowie and saxophonist Joseph Jarman have all passed on, leaving the Art Ensemble of Chicago's remaining original members, saxophonist Roscoe Mitchell and drummer Famoudou Don Moye, to rebuild. We Are on the Edge is a double-CD package; it is a fifty-year celebration of the group, and a dedication to the departed ...
The Art Ensemble of Chicago: We Are On The Edge: A 50th Anniversary Celebration
by Mark Corroto
Seventy plus recordings and fifty years since the inception of The Art Ensemble Of Chicago. I mean the Roscoe Mitchell Art Ensemble, its original name. Born of Chicago's Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM), the band sojourned to Paris and soon changed its name to The Art Ensemble Of Chicago to reflect the corroborative ...
Anna Webber: Clockwise
by Troy Dostert
Although she's a horn player by trade, Anna Webber has always had a fascination with percussion as a basis for her idiosyncratic compositions. With pieces that build in complexity, with rhythms that are continuously reformulated, Webber produces music where a groove is usually present, yet it's typically filtered and recontextualized in surprising ways. Fortunately she's had ...
David Virelles: Igbó Alákọrin
by Luca Canini
L'idea non è certo nuova, e nemmeno troppo originale. Legioni di musicisti, da un angolo all'altro del pianeta, non hanno saputo resistere prima o poi alla tentazione di riavvicinarsi a casa, di riannodare i fili con il passato saldando il debito che ogni artista ha con le proprie radici. Ma c'è modo e modo di tornare ...
