Samuel Blaser Quartet: 7th Heaven

Read "7th Heaven" reviewed by Terrell Kent Holmes


Samuel Blaser writes and plays daringly on his debut as a leader, blending free jazz sensibilities with a straight-ahead approach. And if a trombone ever flourished in a free jazz vein, it's here. “Sans Titre," with its faux military theme, sets the tone as Blaser and guitarist Scott Dubois march side by side. ...

Samuel Blaser: 7th Heaven

Read "7th Heaven" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Il debutto del trombonista svizzero Samuel Blaser è di quelli che non passano inosservati.

Un talento cristallino quello di Blaser, ...

Bovet Brothers and Friends: KWA

Read "KWA" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Album realizzato “in famiglia”, questo dei Bovet Brothers (piano, sax, batteria), cui si aggiungono due Friends per completare l’organico. Quando nel nome della band c’è “And Friends”, possiamo immaginare che tipo di musica viene proposta. Una musica gioiosa e ben inserita nei solchi della tradizione. Non fa eccezione questo quintetto, che si diverte a giocare con ...
