Ron Miles: Rainbow Sign
by Mario Calvitti
Per il suo esordio su etichetta Blue Note, il trombettista Ron Miles riunisce nuovamente il quintetto stellare con cui aveva inciso il precedente I Am a Man, Bill Frisell alla chitarra, Brian Blade alla batteria, Jason Moran al piano e Thomas Morgan al contrabbasso. Il gruppo era a sua volta l'evoluzione di un trio con Frisell ...
Dan McCarthy: A Place Where We Once Lived
by Friedrich Kunzmann
In light of Dan McCarthy's stunning new effort, the vibraphonist's last two outings, Abstract City (Origin Records, 2019) and Epoch (Origin Records, 2019), can be regarded as statements of intent. Both more than noteworthy musical offerings at opposite ends of the jazz spectrum (discussed on All About Jazz here ), the two albums give followers a ...
Jakob Bro, Arve Henriksen, Jorge Rossy: Uma Elmo
by Mario Calvitti
Giunto al quinto album da titolare per la casa discografica tedesca dopo il suo esordio nel 2015 (ma un'altra decina di dischi li aveva incisi per altre etichette nel decennio precedente), il chitarrista danese Jakob Bro rinnova i musicisti del suo trio rinunciando al contrabbasso, finora sempre affidato a Thomas Morgan, per dialogare con un secondo ...
Ron Miles: Rainbow Sign
by Paul Rauch
Denver-based cornetist Ron Miles seemed to turn an important creative corner with the release of his last album, I Am a Man (Yellowbird, 2017). With a stellar band in tow, he seemed to have gathered the elements to produce something very original. This was not an easy task, considering the ardent individuality represented by the session's ...

Ron Miles: Rainbow Sign Of The Times
by Ian Patterson
The title of Ron Miles' Rainbow Sign (Blue Note Records, 2020) carries great personal meaning for the Denver cornetist/composer and educator. The initial influence was The Carter Family song “God Gave Noah the Rainbow Sign," with its line 'No more water but the fire next time," which in turn gave James Baldwin the title for his ...
Ron Miles: Rainbow Sign
by Ian Patterson
The symbolism of the rainbow varies from one culture to the next, and not all interpretations are positive, but the notion of the rainbow as a pathway between this life and the afterlife is perhaps the most pertinent for Ron Miles. Rainbow Sign, the Blue Note debut of the Colorado-based cornetist, was mostly written as his ...
