Stefano Bollani - Massimo Altomare: Gnòsi delle Fanfole [Libro + CD]

Read "Gnòsi delle Fanfole [Libro + CD]" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


La Gnòsi delle Fanfole è una stupenda raccolta di poesie di uno straordinario personaggio, Fosco Maraini, scienziato naturale, letterato, viaggiatore, grande conoscitore dell’oriente, insegnante di lingua e letteratura giapponese, padre della scrittrice Dacia Maraini, infine inventore della “poesia metasemantica”, composta di termini inventati, privi di senso se non per quello, obliquo, conferito ad essi dal loro ...

Stefano Bollani

Read "Stefano Bollani" reviewed by Celeste Sunderland


In December, 2007 Italian pianist Stefano Bollani got the chance to play in one of Rio de Janeiro's poorest places, the favela. For most, performing in such a dreary locale would not be so pleasant, but for Bollani it was extraordinary. “They never have concerts there," he explained. “It's the poorest place on Earth and there ...

Stefano Bollani: Piano Solo

Read "Piano Solo" reviewed by Budd Kopman

Stefano Bollani: Piano Solo

Read "Piano Solo" reviewed by John Kelman


Still in his mid-thirties, Italian pianist Stefano Bollani has created a surprisingly large discography in the past decade. Piano Solo is the first under his own name for ECM, though he's by no means a new face on the label. He's worked with Enrico Rava since the mid-'90s, and can be heard on the trumpeter's Easy ...

Piano Solo, his second album of unaccompanied piano pieces, but his first for ECM, repeats the eclecticism of Smat Smat (Label Bleu, 2003) ...
