Roberto Bonati ParmaFrontiere Orchestra: Si erano vestiti dalla festa

Read "Si erano vestiti dalla festa" reviewed by Duncan Heining


"Si erano vestiti dalla festa"--They had dressed up for the party. In August 1922, citizens of Parma barricaded the city against a planned assault by Mussolini's blackshirts. They resisted valiantly and repelled the fascists. No fascist passed that day. A few months later, in October, King Victor Emmanuel III appointed Mussolini prime minister. The heroes of ...

Roberto Bonati Chironomic Orchestra: The Gesture Of Sound / The Gesture Of Colour

Read "The Gesture Of Sound / The Gesture Of Colour" reviewed by Duncan Heining


Someone once said that writing about music was as illogical as singing about economics. Writers about music inevitably bristle at the suggestion but it might have merit when it comes to improvised music. How do you write about something that can never be recreated, even when recorded and preserved for posterity? We can discuss its method ...

Roberto Bonati + ParmaFrontiere Orchestra: La fòla de l’oca/Overtime

Read "La fòla de l’oca/Overtime" reviewed by Duncan Heining


Bassist/composer Roberto Bonati is one of the most imaginative and creative composers working in 2023. His past recordings evidence a fondness for literary and philosophical concerns, grand conceits that his compositional skills are more than able to match. A Silvery Silence: fragments from Moby Dick (MM Records 2006) pondered obsession versus conscience, while The Blanket of ...

Tor Yttredal, Roberto Bonati: Some Red Some Yellow

Read "Some Red Some Yellow" reviewed by Neri Pollastri


Dopo anni di collaborazioni e trasferte nelle rispettive città, Parma e Stavanger, Roberto Bonati e Tor Yttredal si incontrano faccia a faccia e danno vita a un album in duo, intimo, lirico e sofisticato, nel quale si fondono mirabilmente le tradizioni musicali dei due paesi d'origine.

L'autorevole inventiva di Salvatore Maiore

Read "L'autorevole inventiva di Salvatore Maiore" reviewed by Angelo Leonardi


Contrabbassista, violoncellista e compositore tra i più attivi in Italia, Salvatore Maiore ha evidenziato -nelle molte collaborazioni e nei progetti personali-una cifra espressiva particolarmente ricercata, dove il ruolo dei suoi strumenti assume un aspetto propositivo, in una chiara esaltazione delle forme melodiche e timbriche. Di recente ha pubblicato un progetto sulle musiche di Charles Mingus interpretate ...

Robert Bonati Chironomic Orchestra: Whirling Leaves

Read "Whirling Leaves" reviewed by Duncan Heining


Whirling Leaves is a wonderful, intriguing album from Roberto Bonati, one of Europe's most interesting and creative composers. Bonati's previous large ensemble records have all essayed specific themes, from “The Scottish Play" from The Blanket of the Dark, a Study for Lady Macbeth ( MM Records, 2001) to the migratory nature and evolution of medieval music ...
