Narcissus: No. 2

Read "No. 2" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Il quartetto belga/olandese Narcissus, che in questo lavoro specifico ospita in due brani il chitarrista argentino Guillermo Celano, pratica un jazz sofficemente antigrazioso, di temperatura spesso cameristica, comunque generalmente quieta, pacata.

Pascal Niggenkemper Trio: Urban Creatures

Read "Urban Creatures" reviewed by Nic Jones


The Pascal Niggenkemper Trio is one that covers a lot of ground, and they deserve praise for that. But the trouble is that a distinct musical identity only emerges infrequently despite the fact that all three players are clearly well versed in the territory they map out. Of the three of them drummer/pianist Tyshawn Sorey is ...
