Stefano Bollani, retrato múltiple de un grande ubicuo

Read "Stefano Bollani, retrato múltiple de un grande ubicuo" reviewed by Joan A. Cararach


“Bollani è un grande, ma... ha il dono dell'ubiquità? E' dappertutto!"Así, en un comentario escrito en Facebook, expresaba su perplejidad una persona ante la constante presencia de Stefano Bollani (Milán, 1972) en los medios de comunicación italianos, tanto por su actividad en concierto (el pianista es, según muchos promotores italianos, seguro de venta de ...

Manfred Eicher: Through the Lens

Read "Manfred Eicher: Through the Lens" reviewed by John Kelman


It begins in silence, always silence. Since the 1990s, all ECM recordings begin with five seconds of silence, and so, too, do directors Norbert Wiedmer and Peter Guyer open their feature film on the heralded German record label and its enigmatic founder, Sounds and Silence: Travels with Manfred Eicher. As longtime ECM recording artist Keith Jarrett's ...

John Law / Mark Pringle: This is

Read "This is" reviewed 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

Read "Orvieto" reviewed 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

Read "Ricardo Villalobos / Max Loderbauer: Re: ECM" reviewed 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

Read "Craig Taborn: Avenging Angel" reviewed 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)

Read "Stefano Bollani Sheik Yer Zappa - Poggibonsi (FI)" reviewed 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

Read "Stefano Bollani Sheik Yer Zappa - Roma" reviewed 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

Read "Outing" reviewed 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 ...
