Why George Russell Will Always Live in Time

Read "Why George Russell Will Always Live in Time" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose

Perhaps this was because oddly ...

Geir Lysne Ensemble: The Grieg Code

Read "The Grieg Code" reviewed by John Kelman


The Norwegian aesthetic for large ensembles is often considerably distanced from the American tradition, though there are mid-Atlantic meeting points, with Mariah Schneider and Darcy James Argue finding some common ground with Jon Balke, Trygve Seim and Geir Lysne. Lysne, in particular, has managed to combine a greater predilection for overt soloing within oftentimes expansive, detailed ...

Arild Andersen: Live at Belleville

Read "Live at Belleville" reviewed by John Kelman


The general international perception of Norway's jazz scene as “Nordic Cool," is, like most generalizations, inevitably distanced from truth. Atomic, The Core and Motif may possess no shortage of heat, but ECM has undeniably helped define that unmistakable Norwegian aesthetic. One of the “big four," brought to international attention in the early 1970s alongside guitarist Terje ...

Read "Vossabrygg" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Il chitarrista norvegese Terje Rypdal è certamente uno degli artisti più longevi sulla scena della musica creativa, con una lunga militanza iniziata nei primissimi anni sessanta nel paese natale, con il gruppo The Vanguards. Un progetto di successo modellato su gruppi inglesi e americani coevi come gli Shadows e i Ventures, cavalieri di quel rock strumentale ...
