DKV & Joe McPhee: The Fire Each Time
by Mark Corroto
Do you participate in the 21st century phenomena called 'binge-watching'? With the advent of Netflix and downloadable television, consumers can view an entire television series in one sitting.

Vijay Iyer and Craig Taborn: The Transitory Poems
by Mike Jurkovic
Perhaps curiously or perhaps purposely for these two inspired alumni of Roscoe Mitchell's Note Factory, The Transitory Poems enters existence with the anticipatory, lets-get-acquainted improvisation “Life Line (Seven Tensions)," before each pianist's creative wanderlust and imagination takes hold and the music becomes a ranging, raging real-time white-hot collaborative statement. Recorded live at the Franz ...
Vijay Iyer and Craig Taborn: The Transitory Poems
by Dan McClenaghan
The seed that started The Transitory Poems, the two piano set from Vijay Iyer and Craig Taborn, was planted in 2002, when the two pianists played in saxophonist Roscoe Mitchell's band, Note Factory, contributing to Song for My Sister (Pi Recordings, 2002). At that time Taborn and Iyer fell into the “exciting young lions" category, and ...
Vijay Iyer and Craig Taborn: The Transitory Poems
by Luca Canini
Quattro mani, due pianisti. Vijay Iyer e Craig Taborn. Sullo stesso palco, quello della Franz List Academy di Budapest, nel marzo di un anno fa. Un incontro ravvicinato, non il primo (e nemmeno l'ultimo: in arrivo una lunga serie di date al di qua e al di là dell'Atlantico), al quale Manfred Eicher e l'ECM hanno ...
Henry Threadgill: la sintesi e gli specchi
by Giuseppe Segala
Il settembre 2017 è stato per Henry Threadgill un mese di intensa vendemmia discografica: nel giro di pochi giorni, dal 24 al 27, il compositore e polistrumentista è entrato nello studio Water Music, New Jersey, con due formazioni diverse ma per molti versi complementari, e una bella mole di materiale. Uno dei due organici, denominato Double ...

Angel Bat Dawid: Lightning In A Bottle
by Kevin Press
Angel Bat Dawid's new album The Oracle is a thing of unique beauty. Lightning in a bottle. What began as a collection of tunes recorded so that her band members who don't read sheet music could learn the new material turns out to be an inspired collection of afro-centric love and happiness. The Chicago-based ...

Tyshawn Sorey: Pillars
by Giuseppe Segala
Inizia con una rullata. Fitta, uniforme ma chiara, ricca di risonanze. Lunga: solo verso la fine, dopo quasi quattro minuti, accenna un aumento dell'intensità e si ferma sul silenzio. Chiave o forziere ermeticamente chiuso? Così l'esordio del primo dei tre CD che compongono Pillars, lavoro impegnativo sia per chi ascolta che per chi lo ha prodotto, ...
