Luís Lopes Lisbon Berlin Trio: The Line
by Mark Corroto
Guitarist Luís Lopes posted the following quote on his Facebook page, “art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable." With that as his mission statement, the question arises: can one listen to his music with a sympathetic ear? Or more importantly, is discomfort the motivation and ultimately the goal? Lopes' ...
Rodrigo Amado Motion Trio & Peter Evans: The Freedom Principle
by Alberto Bazzurro
Inciso anch'esso a Lisbona, però in studio, due soli giorni dopo (quindi il 18 marzo 2013) il Live in Lisbon recensito di recente, questo nuovo lavoro del trio plus del sassofonista portoghese, pur fondandosi sempre sull'improvvisazione senza rete, presenta tuttavia strutture più rigide (almeno questa è l'impressione che ci trasmette), compassate, formalmente tornite. ...
Rodrigo Amado's Motion Trio + Peter Evans: The Freedom Principle

Il ...

Rodrigo Amado's Motion Trio and Peter Evans
by John Sharpe
Ever since the 2009 debut of the Motion Trio, Portuguese saxophonist Rodrigo Amado has sought to broaden the options available through the addition of more fire power. On both Burning Live (Jazz Ao Centro, 2012) and The Flame Alphabet (Not Two, 2012), Chicago trombonist Jeb Bishop occupied that berth, his garrulous melodicism proving a winning match ...
