Abdullah Ibrahim al Roma Jazz Festival
by Serena Antinucci
Abdullah Ibrahim Roma Jazz Festival Auditorium Parco della Musica 17.11.2019 Mi piace pensare che Abdullah Ibrahim, mentre cammina lentamente verso il pianoforte della Sala Sinopoli, stia pensando al potere dell'istante. Come scriveva il poeta ottantacinquenne Jorge Luis Borges: “Nel caso non lo sappiate, di quello è fatta la vita, solo di ...

Evgeny Sivtsov: Zoo
by Don Phipps
On Zoo, composer and pianist Evgeny Sivtsov reimagines and contrasts jazz styles in a clever and skillful manner. Sivtsov sounds like a cross between Thelonious Monk, Bud Powell, or even Lennie Tristano—not just in his technique, but in his attack as well. This makes for piano playing that, depending upon the number, is at times robust ...

Dor Herskovits: Flying Elephants
by Jerome Wilson
Drummer Dor Herskovits has been recording since 2017 as a member of the forward-thinking jazz group Earprint. His own quintet has a similar modern style but does more incorporation of older jazz traditions into its work. This group's music can be either raucous or dreamy and sometimes brings up refracted echoes of other players. ...
Eric Hofbauer and Dylan Jack: Remains of Echoes
by Troy Dostert
Always attuned to unusual choices that keep his listeners guessing, guitarist Eric Hofbauer knows no bounds when it comes to his repertoire. One is as likely to hear a Cyndi Lauper or Nirvana cover as something by Thelonious Monk or Charlie Parker. And his stylistic approach on the guitar is similarly idiosyncratic, with a gutbucket blues ...

Instant Composers Pool al Teatro Garibaldi di Palermo. Organizzazione Curva Minore Contemporary Sounds 2019.
by Maurizio Zerbo
Instant Composers Pool Teatro Garibaldi Palermo 1/11/2019 Il tempo della memoria costituisce la chiave interpretativa di volta per valutare questo magnifico concerto dedicato a Misha Mengelberg, leader carismatico dell'Instant Composers Pool. Il commosso ricordo del geniale pianista, scomparso nel 2017, ha trasfigurato le consuete trame iconoclaste dell'ensemble olandese in pannelli swinganti ...
Andrew Dickeson: Groove!
by Dan McClenaghan
You've got to love a lack of pretense. Australian drummer Andrew Dickeson's Groove! seems--initially at least, with the set's opener, “I'm Old Fashioned"--to be introducing a breezy and unpretentious piano trio affair. The tune has a carefree bounce, and the old put-down of “cocktail piano jazz" comes to mind--though what exactly is wrong with music from ...
