Ralph Towner: un americano a Roma
by Mario Calvitti
Ralph Towner rappresenta sicuramente una figura atipica nel vasto mondo della chitarra jazz. In primo luogo per gli strumenti usati: la chitarra classica, che negli anni '60 in ambito jazzistico era utilizzata solamente da musicisti legati alla musica brasiliana come Charlie Byrd, Laurindo Almeida e Bola Sete, e la chitarra 12-corde, che proveniva dal mondo folk ...
Cory Weeds & the Jeff Hamilton Trio: Dreamsville
by Jack Bowers
Even though the substance and framework of jazz are constantly changing and evolving, the music's bedrock--marked by spontaneity and free-wheeling swing--remains essentially unimpaired and secure. And when it comes to swinging, it's hard to eclipse the irrepressible pulse of the tenor saxophone, an instrument whose long and enduring ties to jazz and swing have been epitomized ...
Possibilites: Get 'Em
by Dan McClenaghan
The saxophone/bass/drums grouping--at one time a rarity--seems to be undergoing a renewal of sorts. Drummer Rudy Royston offered up a fine example of the genre with Rise Of Orion (Greenleaf Music, 2016). Saxophonist JD Allen dove deep into the blues on Americana (Savant Records, 2016), and sax man Jason Rigby presented a breakout effort on the ...
Lew Tabackin: A Life in Jazz
by Rob Rosenblum
Tenor saxophonist and flutist Lew Tabackin is known as a forceful and dynamic soloist, both in small group and big band settings. His views of the jazz music scene, both past and present, are equally compelling. Recently, I had the opportunity to spend several hours with Mr. Tabackin for this interview. Rather than insert ...
Collegiate Jazz at Dizzy's Club Coca-Cola
by Nick Catalano
For the better part of a decade I've escorted my jazz class at Pace University on trips to Dizzy's to see the Manhattan School of Music Concert Jazz Band perform. The series was forged by veteran jazz academic Justin DiCioccio whose leadership and programming has prompted a rarely noticed success of Collegiate jazz bands across the ...
Dominic Miller: From Sting to ECM
by Luca Muchetti
Dominic Miller's debut album for ECM, Silent Light, has all the qualities to become a sensation. After a career spanning nearly five decades during which he has lent his versatile artistry to the likes of Phil Collins, Tina Turner, Steve Winwood, Peter Gabriel, and Sting since 1993, Miller has released a very intimate and elegant quasi-solo ...
Dominic Miller: dalla corte di Sting a quella di Manfred Eicher
by Luca Muchetti
La prima volta di Dominic Miller per la blasonata ECM Records ha tutte le caratteristiche di un vero evento discografico. Miller, chitarrista fra i più versatili in circolazione e che ha legato il suo nome a un'ormai storica militanza in studio e dal vivo accanto a Sting dai tempi di The Soul Cages (era il 1991, ...
Mn'JAM experiment: Live with a Boom
by Chris M. Slawecki
Can computers be programmed to improvise? That's just one of the questions you'll consider in response to Live with a Boom, the first multimedia presentation by Melissa Oliveira and João Artur Moreira (JAM) with other like-minded colleagues in the Mn'JAM experiment. You can trace the modern, global (perhaps post-modern, post-global) sound of Oliveira's ensemble ...
Gary Burton on Telephone Song
On May 22, 1964, the Stan Getz Quartet with Astrud Gilbert appeared at New York's Cafe Au Go Go. Among the songs they performed was the Telephone Song, by Roberto Menescal, Ronaldo Bôscoli and Norman Gimbel. The gig was recorded for a live album released by Verve in December called Getz Au Go Go. Here's Gilberto ...
Matt Otto with Ensemble Iberica: Iberica
by Dan McClenaghan
Saxophonist Matt Otto presents the ambitious Iberica, a trip into the sounds of music from the Iberian Peninsula--Spain and Portugal. Ensemble Iberica joins him, a guitar trio that adds--in addition to their guitars--the cavaquinto, the oud, and the Cuban tres, crafting a delicate yet expansive soundscape in this tranquil, flowing, chamber jazz outing. This ...
