Josh Sinton: b.
by Troy Dostert
Baritone saxophonist and bass clarinetist Josh Sinton has a long resume going back to the 1990s, when he worked extensively in the Chicago scene with veterans including Fred Anderson and Ken Vandermark. Then a move to the East Coast, in the early 2000s, brought him into contact with mentors such as Ran Blake and Steve Lacy; ...
Susan Alcorn: Another Way
by Dom Minasi
If you are not into improvised music, you may not know Susan Alcorn. Take it from someone who has listened and played with her, she is a giant. I never heard of Susan till one Sunday night at the legendary CBGB's Sunday Night Avant-Garde series where she performed with tenor saxophonist, Joe Giardullo. I ...
Don Cherry: Complete Communion & Symphony For Improvisers Revisited
by Mark Corroto
Before his departure, Don Cherry was a kind of Johnny Appleseed for what would eventually be called the “New Thing" in jazz. He can be heard in the midst of the innovative work of Ornette Coleman, Sonny Rollins, Albert Ayler, Steve Lacy, Archie Shepp, and John Tchicai. Cherry's fertilizations changed the sound of creative music then ...
Jay Clayton, Jerry Granelli: Alone Together
by Angelo Leonardi
L'età avanzata non aveva spento in Jay Clayton e Jerry Granelli (purtroppo deceduto di recente) la voglia di riprendere la lunga collaborazione in performance liberamente improvvisate. Il sodalizio tra la cantante e il batterista risale alla fine degli anni settanta, quando Collin Walcott suggerì a Granelli d'invitare la Clayton al workshop musicale che tenevano al Naropa ...
Marco Colonna: Offering
by Neri Pollastri
Marco Colonna prosegue lo sviluppo della pratica del solo, alternando strumenti, repertori e forme espressive, senza però mai tradire né la nitidezza del suono—che fa di lui uno degli interpreti delle ance più affascinanti non solo d'Italia—né la progettualità drammaturgica delle performances, quasi sempre, come in questo caso, riprese dal vivo. Stavolta il programma ...
Adam Nolan: Prim and Primal
by Richard J Salvucci
Tell you what. A lot of listeners have never been particularly big fans of free jazz. “It is difficult to understand." Really? “Formalism," said Sergei Prokofiev, “is the name given to music not understood on first hearing." This, recall, was a statement made in defense of Dmitri Shostakovich and his Fourth Symphony. This is not to ...
Unscientific Italians: Frisellian Magic
by Ludovico Granvassu
If Italian film director Nanni Moretti had been born in 1973 instead of 1953, he might well have set the iconic Vespa ride through the empty streets of a languid, mid-August Rome in Caro Diario against a Bill Frisell rather than a Keith Jarrett soundtrack. Because if every era is defined by a limited ...
