Ted Sirota's Rebel Souls: Seize the Time

by AAJ Italy Staff
Possiamo pensare a Ted Sirota come se fosse un nipotino bianco di Max Roach: come l'illustre collega Sirota si muove in fase compositiva ed esecutiva con la massima attenzione per i dettagli, lasciando intravvedere sin dai titoli un forte impegno civile. Fortunatamente, anche le doti tecniche del batterista di Chicago sono all'altezza della situazione e i ...

The Jazz Session #124: Ted Sirota

Drummer Ted Sirota is using his powers for good. On his most recent album, Seize The Time (Naim, 2009), Sirota once again chooses to make a political statement with his song titles and choices. In this interview, Sirota talks about making political jazz; why hes not going to use liner notes again; and the fine balance ...
Ted Sirota's Rebel Souls: Seize The Time

by Troy Collins
In the grand tradition of such revolutionary bandleaders as Charles Mingus and Max Roach, Chicago-based drummer Ted Sirota leads his flagship band, The Rebel Souls, through their fifth long player, Seize The Time, with the same vivacious energy he fostered over their four previous releases, hearkening back to Rebel Roots (NAIM, 1996). Despite a ...
Ted Sirota's Rebel Souls: Seize The Time

by Glenn Astarita
U.K.-based Naim label has been a cornerstone of high-end audio quality, and that tradition continues on Seize The Time, a studio date featuring Chicago drummer Ted Sirota and his diverse perspective on the jazz idiom. The mindset, or perhaps underlying force, behind this session is encapsulated by the drummer who suggests that the world is in ...
Ted Sirota's Rebel Souls: Seize The Time

by Mark Corroto
To call this Rebel Souls disc ambitious is not an overstatement, and to label drummer Ted Sirota and company bold, does not unnecessarily over-dramatize their mission. Seize The Time is the band's fifth disc, of which three prior releases were also on UK's NAIM--Rebel Roots (1996), Propaganda (1999) and Vs. The Forces Of Evil (2000)--preceding the ...
Lucky 7's: Pluto Junkyard

by Troy Collins
The brainchild of trombonists Jeb Bishop and Jeff Albert, the Lucky 7's are a consummate example of post-Vandermark Chicago-based collectivism. Bishop's longstanding work with fellow artists such as Rob Mazurek, Ted Sirota and Ken Vandermark informs his inside-outside approach, lending a forward thinking but historically aware sensibility to this versatile mid-sized ensemble. A New Orleans native, ...
