Read "Roots Run Deep" reviewed by John Sharpe


Roots Run Deep forms a further installment in the ongoing strand of investigation into the marriage of words and music, which has found a home on the Paris-based Rogue Art label, that also includes Maison Hantee (2009). It's unusual in that though issued under the name of veteran multi instrumentalist Yusef Lateef, the work was actually ...

Aa.Vv.: 13 Miniatures for Albert Ayler

Read "13 Miniatures for Albert Ayler" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Albert Ayler è stato un protagonista fondamentale e unico della creatività degli anni Sessanta, un punto di riferimento imprescindibile dal quale hanno preso il via molte esperienze dei decenni successivi. Ricordarsi di Ayler oggi è dunque importante, tributargli un omaggio tanto doveroso quanto problematico. La serie di jazzisti convocati alla Fondation Cartier di Parigi il 2 ...

Various Artists: 13 Miniatures for Albert Ayler

Read "13 Miniatures for Albert Ayler" reviewed by John Sharpe


Tributes come in many forms. Most blatant is the repertory regurgitation of charts associated with the dedicatee or modern takes on that program. Then comes homage, influenced by the historical figure in question, with works in a contemporaneous style. Finally, there appears art inspired by the spirit of the honoree. It is into this last division ...

Roscoe Mitchell: Numbers

Read "Numbers" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


La carriera solista di Roscoe Mitchell senza l'Art Ensemble è stata prolifica sin dal 1966, quando esordì con l'album Sound. Proprio quel titolo sembra indicativo di un aspetto centrale nella storia di questo musicista complesso da decifrare: lo studio del suono e del sassofono indagato nelle sue molteplici possibilità. Una sorta di rovescio della stessa medaglia, ...

Roscoe Mitchell: Numbers

Read "Numbers" reviewed by John Sharpe


What's the difference between composition and improvisation once the music has been committed to disc? At that point even the wildest flights of fancy become fixed and immutable, able to be reheated and pored over at leisure. One difference may lie in the notation-defying musical characteristics integral to the finest improvisations: continual variation of tone and ...

Chicago Trio: Velvet Songs to Baba Fred Anderson

Read "Velvet Songs to Baba Fred Anderson" reviewed by John Sharpe


Drawn from two nights at Chicago's legendary Velvet Lounge, this double-disc set by three of the Windy City's finest provides fitting tribute to that establishment's late proprietor. Tenor saxophonist Fred Anderson was held in high esteem for his support for young musicians, non-judgmental direction, and provision of a space to experiment and perform. That the music ...

Indigo Trio and Michel Edelin: The Ethiopian Princess Meets The Tantric Priest

Read "The Ethiopian Princess Meets The Tantric Priest" reviewed by John Sharpe


Given the paucity of flute trios in the normal course of events, and the appearance of two almost simultaneously on the same label, it was only a matter of time before the Paris-based Rogue Art imprint brought the two main protagonists together. The Ethiopian Princess Meets The Tantric Priest represents the fruits of the union of ...
