Tomasz Stańko New York Quartet: December Avenue
by Karl Ackermann
The elder statesman of modern Polish jazz, trumpeter and composer Tomasz Stańko has more than a forty year history with ECM. Dating back to his 1976 label debut, Balladyna, Stańko sounds to have arrived fully-formed, and in the company of Dave Holland and Finnish percussionist Edward Vesala. Stańko's trademark atmospheric and cerebral style is fully intact ...
Carlos Bica & Azul featuring Frank Möbus and Jim Black: More Than This
by Henning Bolte
Azul, comprising Portuguese bassist Carlos Bica, guitarist Frank Möbus from Germany and drummer Jim Black from New York, is one of those trios around with a highly notable profile and characteristic signature. No doubt many dedicated music lovers will have their own history with this group that has been active now for more than 20 years. ...
Eliot Cardinaux
by Paolo Peviani
Il tratto principale della mia musica Mi piace danzare sul bordo. Sento che se nella mia musica manca questo, faccio fatica a guardare i due lati negli occhi, e metterli in discussione equamente. La qualità che desidero nei musicisti che suonano con me Mi piacciono i musicisti che non smettono mai ...

by Tyran Grillo
ECM Showcase at NYC Winter Jazzfest 2017 Tishman Auditorium, The New School New York City January 7, 2017 Music has been a comfort in troubling times ever since there were humans to bring about troubles to begin with. Rare, however, is that music which seeks not only to placate but also ...
Jim Black Trio: The Constant
by Vincenzo Roggero
The Constant, ossia la forma canzone come costante nella scrittura che Jim Black mette in campo in questo terzo lavoro del trio completato dal giovane talento Elias Stemeseder al pianoforte e da quello già ampiamente riconosciuto di Thomas Morgan al contrabbasso. Una scrittura ad ampio raggio e di larghe vedute che richiede sensibilità interpretativa sopraffina oltre ...

Filippo Vignato
by Vincenzo Roggero
01. How Town -I Dare You Sea (Kleine Opa -2016). Per me una rivelazione, è il terzo album di questo gruppo vocale (leader il contrabbassista belga Lennart Heyndels) formato da giovani improvvisatori ed improvvisatrici nord-europei di immenso talento gravitanti attorno alla vivace scena olandese. Disco visionario per scrittura, suono, ricerca sulle possibilità dello strumento vocale ...
Jakob Bro: Streams
by Mark Sullivan
Danish guitarist Jakob Bro's second ECM album as leader continues with the trio concept of his debut Gefion (ECM, 2015). That album was a low-key stunner, with drummer Jon Christensen frequently taking a role as much textural as rhythmic. Streams is a somewhat more extroverted affair. It's tempting to attribute the change to new drummer Joey ...
Jakob Bro: Streams
by Geno Thackara
"The music wants to go in its own direction," Jakob Bro declares, and “it's our job to follow it." If one central theme of jazz is “never the same way once," the Danish guitarist is someone who lives by it more than most. No two of his albums are made with the same cast and rarely ...
