Norwegian Jazz 101c: JazzNorway In A Nutshell 2011
by John Kelman
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
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 ...

Samuli Mikkonen: Korpea Kuunnellessa
by Matthew Wuethrich
Pianist Samuli Mikkonen’s first album as a leader delves even deeper into the abstract shapes and reflective tempo first explored by the Mikkonen/Jormin/Kleive trio on KOM-live , also recorded in 1998.
