by John Ephland
Stockholm Jazz Festival Stockholm, Sweden October 7-16, 2016 This year's autumnal Stockholm Jazz Festival continued their tilt toward world and improvisational music in the context of a jazz festival. That said, there was an ample supply of shows to go see and hear where “jazz" was preeminent. Programming world ...
La discografia completa di Gianni Lenoci
by Donatello Tateo
Gianni Lenoci (Monopoli, 6/6/1963), pianista, compositore, didatta, performer multimediale ed artista visuale, è personalità artistica inquieta e sperimentatrice, come evidenziato dalla ormai pluridecennale corrispondenza empatica con alcuni compagni di avventure (in particolare Steve Potts, Kent Carter, Gianni Mimmo), e dal suo progetto Hocus Pocus, gruppo a geometria variabile dal trio fino alla dimensione orchestrale.
Roscoe Mitchell e Michele Rabbia alla Sala dei Giganti al Liviano di Padova
by Libero Farnè
Ostinati 2016 Sala dei Giganti al Liviano Padova 06.10.2016 L'ostinazione degli organizzatori della rassegna padovana consiste nel ricercare sempre nomi nuovi o esperienze significative dell'attualità jazzistica, presentando comunque proposte rare per il panorama italiano, spesso in esclusiva nazionale. A volte riescono perfino a realizzare progetti inediti; com'è avvenuto in questo ...
An Evil Clown and a Leap of Faith
by Karl Ackermann
"I don't have a half-speed for music, if I do it, I'm all in..."--PEK If the Evil Clown record label is prolific on a per capita basis, then its founder is exponentially more inexhaustible. David Peck (aka PEK) founded the label--at first, unbranded--and its roots date back a little more than twenty years ...
The Inner Spectrum of Variables
by Enrico Bettinello
Ok, proviamoci. Proviamo a parlare di questo disco uscendo dalle convenzioni che di solito si adottano quando ci si pone di fronte a un percorso musicale come quello di Tyshawn Sorey. Sorey non dovrebbe avere bisogno di troppe presentazioni. Oddio, magari in un'Italia del jazz mediamente poco curiosa di quello che sta oltre ...

Protean Reality: Protean Reality
by John Sharpe
Alto saxophonist Chris Pitsiokos has been creating a buzz around NYC for a while now. After a series of releases on small independent imprints, Protean Reality constitutes one of the first opportunities for him to be heard by a wider audience. He appears in the eponymous triumvirate, alongside drummer Philipp Scholz and electric bassist Noah Punkt, ...
John Lindberg / Anil Ereslan: Juggling Kukla
by John Sharpe
Bassist John Lindberg is best known for his tenure with jazz heavyweights like trumpeter Wadada Leo Smith, and saxophonists Roscoe Mitchell and Anthony Braxton. Equally deserving acclaim are his own swinging but adventurous outfits such as the quartet which waxed A Tree Frog Tonality (between the lines, 2000) and The Catbird Sings (Soul Note, 2000). But ...
Something old, something new, something reissued, something Brötzmann blew.
by Mark Corroto
Can the entire history of a musical genre be encoded in one man's DNA? If that is possible, then reading the DeoxyriboNucleic Acid molecules in saxophonist Peter Brötzmann's body would yield all the information a musical scientist studying the development of free jazz would require. Since the 1960s, he has been in the center of the ...
Craig Taborn: Flaga: Book of Angels, Volume 27
by Dan McClenaghan
There was always a sense that pianist Craig Taborn was more successful as a “super sideman" than as a leader of his own recordings. His contributions to CD offerings by saxophonist Tim Berne, reedman Roscoe Mitchell, saxophonists David Binney and James Carter, and many more, have been critical in crafting dozens of excellent music sets. Then ...
