Anna Webber’s Percussive Mechanics: Refractions
by Mark Corroto
Credit the new generation of jazz musicians for neither following tradition, nor coloring within the lines. Their music is not created within “the tradition." Unless, of course, that tradition includes maverick innovators like Anthony Braxton, Roscoe Mitchell, and John Zorn, players that, at times, have been given the label of non-jazz. This new crop of players ...
Save the Date - Aprile 2015
by Luca Canini
Addio inverno, addio salette umide e fredde, addio sciarpette e giacconi. Archiviato Bergamo Jazz (e archiviata dopo quattro anni la più che positiva direzione artistica di Enrico Rava), con l'affacciarsi della primavera fioccano festival e rassegne. Piazze, teatri, giardini e palchi all'aperto: da qui a settembre ci sarà solo l'imbarazzo della scelta. A noi di Save ...

PRISM Quartet: Heritage/Evolution, Volume 1
by Karl Ackermann
Not quite as well-known as the World Saxophone Quartet or the Rova Saxophone Quartet, the PRISM Quartet practices a unique approach to this category of ensemble playing. In part, PRISM takes a more direct aim on improvisation as opposed to the more blended method of WSQ or the openly free style of Rova. More idiosyncratic is ...
2014: The Year in Jazz
by Ken Franckling
The year 2014 turned out to be a year noteworthy for its numbers. Newport turned 60, Blue Note turned 75, International Jazz Day's third edition featured 900 events in more than 190 countries. The jazz world lost seven of its NEA Jazz Masters, and New Orleans trumpeter Lionel Ferbos died at 103. Sad but not unexpected, ...
I dischi del 2014
by Enrico Bettinello
Condensare il meglio di un anno di musica in soli dieci dischi! Che follia! In fondo sono le classifiche stesse a essere un po' una follia e come tutte le follie va presa con un po' di leggerezza. Le obiezioni sono sempre le stesse: chissà quante cose i redattori di AllAboutJazz Italia non hanno ...

Steve Lehman: Mise en Abîme
by Hrayr Attarian
Saxophonist Steve Lehman's 12th release as a leader/co-leader and his second one with an octet Mise en Abime is a cohesive work of intriguingly cerebral and dramatic nature. Like the title implies there are concepts that repeat, amplify and fade in the process of constructing and deconstructing the main themes of the album. On ...
Henry Threadgill: Very Very Threadgill 2014
by Kurt Gottschalk
Henry Threadgill Harlem Stage Gate House Very Very Threadgill New York, NY September 27-28, 2014 Henry Threadgill isn't one to repeat himself. In nearly 40 years of recording, he's only repeated a few compositions. So why would a retrospective of his work by a mere recapitulation? Very Very Threadgill--held ...
Jason Moran: All Rise: A Joyful Elegy for Fats Waller

The 2010 MacArthur Fellow is a leading jazz pianist with moments of kinetic energy, agility, and sensitivity, the likes of his one-time teacher, the great Jaki Byard.
