by John Kelman
June 20, 2011

2008 | 2009 | 2010 | 2011 It may be true, at least most of the time, that familiarity breeds, if not exactly contempt, then certainly complacency; but that simply doesn't apply if subject is Norway--and, in particular, its disproportionately large and vibrant music scene. Suffering from an epidemic that most folks would ...

Markku Ounaskari - Samuli Mikkonen - Per Jørgensen: Kuára. Psalms and Folk Songs

by AAJ Italy Staff
March 3, 2011

Kuára è un lavoro molto particolare, come talvolta avviene per i progetti ECM. Per quanto infatti l'organico sia tradizionalmente di ambito jazzistico e i tre protagonisti siano tutti musicisti schiettamente jazz, la musica in programma è invece di estrazione folk - più esattamente, si tratta di musica popolare di Karelia, Udmurtia e Vepsia, territori di cultura ...

The Austrian artist Hundertwasser once said, “The straight line is not a creative line, it is a duplicating line, an imitating line.” While listening to pianist/composer Samuli Mikkonen’s newest album, Samuli Mikkonen + 7 henkeä, Hundertwasser’s dislike of the straight line entered my thoughts, because Mikkonen’s music also avoids rigid forms.
