Rob Mazurek
Born:
Rob Mazurek is a multidisciplinary artist/abstractivist, with a focus on electro-acoustic composition, improvisation, performance, painting, sculpture, video, film and installation, who spent much of his creative life in Chicago, and then Brazil. He currently lives and works in Marfa Texas with his wife Britt Mazurek. Mazurek was born in 1965 in Jersey City, New Jersey. In 1975 he moved with his family to a suburb of Chicago where he started playing cornet at the age of 10. A confrontation with the music of Sun Ra at the age of 16 at the Chicago Jazz Festival in 1981 had inspired Mazurek to want to become a serious composer performer

Mats Gustafsson / Ken Vandermark / Tomeka Reid / Chad Taylor: PIVOT
by Mark Corroto
Do not judge a friend for buying a lottery ticket when the jackpot climbs to some astronomical sum. The odds of hitting the winning combination may be just as astronomical, but the dollar spent buys something more valuable than probability: a few hours of dreaming, imagining another life. Speaking of combinations, the newly formed quartet Pivot ...
Chicago Underground Duo: Hyperglyph
by James Taylor

Gabriele Mitelli Three Tsuru Origami: Colapesce
by Mark Corroto
The second release from Gabriele Mitelli's Three Tsuru Origami ensemble shifts from the literal to the symbolic, expanding both in concept and personnel. Their debut, Three Tsuru Origami (We Insist!, 2022), was a meditation on birds and migration. This follow-up, Colapesce, draws inspiration from the 12th-century Sicilian legend of a half-man, half-fish who sacrifices himself to ...

Stemeseder Lillinger + Craig Taborn: Umbra III
by Mark Corroto
Sometimes, the subversion of established paradigms unfolds through incremental variations and subtle shifts in the status quo--so gradual they can be almost imperceptible. Other times, transformation arrives in the form of unexpected revolutions, seismic and undeniable. Somewhere between these two extremes lie the musical experiments of Elias Stemeseder and Christian Lillinger. The Austrian-German duo--pianist, ...
Rob Mazurek Quartet: Color Systems
by Alberto Bazzurro
In parallelo con lavori che spaziano dal solo all'orchestra, Rob Mazurek, uomo-musica ormai giunto sulla soglia dei sessanta ma non per questo meno vorace e curioso di un tempo, ci regala questo album in quartetto (e che quartetto!) imperniato su sei brani comprensivi di altrettante dediche (del resto non è una novità).
