Russ Lossing: All Things Arise
by Budd Kopman
Russ Lossing is a pianist of extreme depth and intensity whose music exists between jazz improvisation and modern classicism. All Things Arise will only cement this impression.

Russ Lossing - Mat Maneri - Mark Dresser: Metal Rat
by AAJ Italy Staff
Come riferito nelle note di copertina, il CD è il risultato di un'intensa seduta di registrazione di poche ore. Non si puo' che rimanere colpiti, quindi, dalla forte intesa tra i tre musicisti. Mark Dresser, con il suo arco trascinante e profondo, quando non percussivo, e con i suoi pizzicati solidi e incalzanti risulta essere il ...

A focused session of collective free improvisation conceived by pianist Russ Lossing, Metal Rat features the spontaneous interplay of three sympathetic musicians.

The ensuing session benefits from ...

Now, art benefits from aesthetic and compositional purity--no unnecessary lines, no superfluous words, no ostentatious displays of skill--but it is usually a byproduct of a brilliant work, not the sole purpose.

Phrase 6 - All Things Arise
by AAJ Italy Staff
Russ Lossing non suona “alla maniera di ..”, perché il suo stile è assolutamente personale, decisamente borderline rispetto ai classici riferimenti presenti nel bagaglio tecnico ed esperienziale di qualsiasi musicista. Da una parte vi è una solida formazione accademica, dall’altra la frequentazione dell’area creativa del jazz con musicisti quali Paul Motian, Michael Formanek e Matt Maneri, ...
