Thomas Jäderlund Amazing Trio: Plays Jazz
by Alberto Bazzurro
In questo gradevolissimo CD, il veterano sassofonista svedese Thomas Jäderlund guida il proprio trio alla riscoperta di quattro temi di Ornette Coleman e altrettanti di Charles Mingus. Lui si divide fra il sax alto, su cui sfoggia una bella voce schiettamente ornettiana (appunto), e il sopranino (due soli brani, entrambi di Mingus: Fables of Faubus" e ...
Torbjörn Zetterberg: Och Den Stora Frågan
by Maurizio Zerbo
Di Torbjörn Zetterberg si ne erano perse le tracce, dopo le ottime prove solistiche negli anni '90. I sette anni di assenza dalla scena musicale non ne hanno offuscato la verve strumentale e compositiva. Ne è una buona testimonianza il CD in esame, ispirato al free-jazz degli anni '60. Lo si capisce dall'enunciazione tematica del tema ...
Jonas Kullhammar: Gentlemen
by Mark Corroto
Swedish saxophonist Jonas Kullhammar continues to capture the late-fifties and early-sixties Blue Note sound. That magic golden age of jazz, when legends roamed roamed the earth, and recorded their music at Rudy Van Gelder's studio. His music conjures names like Joe Henderson, Sonny Rollins, and John Coltrane. The twelve compositions recorded here are the ...
Kullhammar - Aalberg - Zetterberg: Basement Sessions Vol. 2
by Maurizio Zerbo
La pesante ombra dell'eredità coltraniana si insinua nelle trame di questo disco, per quel che riguarda il sound ed il linguaggio proposto. Il trio svedese rivela però una personalità che va oltre il modello di riferimento, grazie ad una tessitura fluida ed volatile. Fra i musicisti si è instaurato un rapporto di intesa molto profondo e ...
Mats/Morgan: Schack Tati
by Claudio Bonomi
Raccontano le cronache che gli svedesi Mats Oberg (tastierista) e Morgan Agren (batterista) suonano insieme dall'età rispettivamente di 10 e 14 anni. Si direbbe un sodalizio di acciaio che si fonda su una fraterna amicizia e su un amore smisurato per Frank Zappa che fu agli inizi degli anni Ottanta anche loro mentore. Fini ...
Cecil McBee: Masterful, And Always Equipped
by R.J. DeLuke
Cecil McBee is one of the finest bass players on the scene, a status he's held among musicians for many years, even if the public is slower to pick up on the achievements of this 79-year-old musician extraordinaire. A natural, he was quick to connect with musicians in his hometown of Tulsa, Oklahoma. But ...

Anders Ahlen Unit: Lines and Dots
by Dave Wayne
I hope it's not too silly to say that Lines and Dots, the new album by guitarist and composer Anders Ahlén, is really cool. But it is; both in the colloquial sense and in the jazz sense. The music goes down with nary a wasted note, the cover art is hip and minimal, and it comes-self-produced ...

Sweden - Possibly one of the most talented composer and keyboardist to emerge from Sweden, Pär Lindh will be releasing a new classical CD titled 'Three Christmas Concertos'. For those in the progressive rock community Pär Lindh is considered a keyboard wizard – so much so that he was chosen to play keys for the reunion ...
Akira Sakata / Johan Berthling / Paal Nilssen-Love: Arashi
by Eyal Hareuveni
This is a trio of like-minded, fearless musicians who like their music hot, steamy and climatic and would not settle for less than that. The Scandinavian rhythm section of prolific Norwegian drummer Paal Nilssen-Love, member of the power trio The Thing and Swedish double bassist Johan Berthling, member of the like-minded trio Fire! (both feature Swedish ...
