Mats Gustafsson: MG50 Peace & Fire
by Mark Corroto
Mats Gustafsson at fifty. Name another artist who has had this significant and widespread effect on jazz, noise, free improvisation, alternative rock, electronica, and free jazz. Besides John Zorn, that pool is quite shallow. Gustafsson's music seems to attract innovative players into imaginative situations. If you are a fan, this 50th birthday celebration recorded in October, ...

Alberto Pinton Noi Siamo: Resiliency
by Alberto Bazzurro
Fra reminiscenze dolphyane, in particolare quando imbraccia il clarinetto basso, o piuttosto riconducibili all'Original Quartet ornettiano, per l'estetica complessiva, Alberto Pinton si ricollega in maniera nient'affatto supina o scontata alle fonti di quell'avanguardia storica (nonché, ovviamente, storicizzata) a cui evidentemente sente di appartenere. Dei sei brani complessivi, ripresi nel corso di un'esibizione al ...

Per Gärdin/Rodrigo Pinheiro/Marco Franco/Travassos: Oblique Mirrors
by Mark Corroto
Listening to the free improvisation recording, Oblique Mirrors brings to mind a most memorable line from the film The Usual Suspects, where Kevin Spacey as Roger “Verbal" Kint says, “The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist. And like that, poof. He's gone." Maybe its the evanescent nature ...
Alberto Pinton/Noi Siamo: Resiliency
by Mark Corroto
In the old days, before clouds, streaming music, and compact discs, the first track from reedist Alberto Pinton's latest release Resiliency would encompass an entire side of a vinyl LP. Maybe we should consider the past when listening to this release by his quartet, Noi Siamo. The disc, recorded live at Stockholm's Glenn Miller ...
