John Law / Mark Pringle: This is
by Jakob Baekgaard
Traditionally, the art of the piano duo has been linked to classical music, and almost every significant classical composer, from Mozart to Maurice Ravel, has written music for two pianos. In jazz, however, this particular medium is somewhat rare, and although Bill Evans recorded Further Conversations with Myself (PolyGram, 1967), where he overdubbed himself on piano, ...
Chick Corea / Stefano Bollani: Orvieto
by John Kelman
If the combination of two chordal instruments--guitar with piano, or vibraphone with guitar, say--can prove a significant challenge in improvised music, then surely the piano duo is the most demanding of all. No other instrument has a seven-and-a-quarter octave range, played with eight fingers and two thumbs, creating far greater risk of harmonic, melodic and rhythmic ...

Ricardo Villalobos / Max Loderbauer: Re: ECM
by John Kelman
The concept of remix-- using studio technology to deconstruct, reshape and reconstruct extant recordings--is far from new, but the past decade has seen a considerable expansion of purview. Once more closely aligned with the club scene, remixes are no longer solely about relentless beats for dancing; instead, as Norway's Punkt Festival has been demonstrating for seven ...
Craig Taborn: Avenging Angel
by John Kelman
He puts out albums under his own name so rarely, while amassing a discography as a sideman/co-leader that's almost unparalleled in its sheer size and stylistic breadth—with over 100 recordings to date, since he first showed up in saxophonist James Carter's groups of the mid-1990s—that it's cause for celebration any time pianist Craig Taborn gets around ...
Stefano Bollani Sheik Yer Zappa - Poggibonsi (FI)
by AAJ Italy Staff
Teatro Politeama - Poggibonsi (FI) - 23.03.11 Era senza dubbio nelle corde di Stefano Bollani, iconoclasta anarchico e animale da palcoscenico a trecentosessanta gradi, un lavoro sulla musica di Frank Zappa - dissacratore per eccellenza della musica della seconda metà del Novecento. Non così scontato era che il pianista trovasse dei compagni d'avventura all'altezza non solo ...
Stefano Bollani Sheik Yer Zappa - Roma
by AAJ Italy Staff
Parco della Musica - Roma - 26.03.2011 Un lungo applauso precede il secondo bis, che vedrà un'introduzione in piano solo di Bollani, intento a passeggiare con frenesia e curiosità tra le partiture zappiane, come un bambino tra le giostre del Luna Park, in un'orgia di taglia/incolla dalla quale sgorgano sensazioni che a metterle insieme viene in ...
Massimo Altomare: Outing
by AAJ Italy Staff
Dischi come “Outing," oltre che costituire una bella colonna sonora per il quotidiano, confermano le coordinate seguite da chi, oggi, in Italia, cerca qualcosa di più e di diverso dai quattro nomi che riescono a conciliare (non sempre) popolarità e qualità. Musica con qualcosa da dire. Ecco come si può raccontare il nuovo album in studio ...
