Berne-Black-Cline: The Veil
by AAJ Italy Staff
Fulton Street Maul (CBS, 1987) rimane tuttora uno dei lavori fondamentali della discografia di Tim Berne. Per il bruciante finale di “Icicles Revisited," affidato a Bill Frisell e Alex Cline, il sassofonista diede ai partner queste semplici indicazioni: “Fate finta di dover prendere l'aereo e di stare per perderlo". In uno stacco di una decina di ...
Dave Douglas: A Creative Consciousness
by Dave Wayne
Considering trumpeter Dave Douglas' musical career, one word that comes to mind is “consistency." Sure, he's led a dizzying variety of bands playing in all sorts of styles. Yet, of the 30-odd recordings he's led, not one veers from the central mission of presenting challenging, original jazz. An inveterate musical risk taker, Douglas has always led ...
Samo Salamon Bassless Trios: Duality
by Dan Bilawsky
By splitting the program between two different bass-less trios connected to opposite sides of the Atlantic, Slovenian guitarist Samo Salamon has managed to bridge the continental divide on Duality. This project could turn into a compare-and-contrast session on the music made by the two groups, alternately dubbed the “US Trio" and “European Trio," and that line ...
Bruno Chevillon and Tim Berne, "Old and Unwise": Open Contrabass-Alto Sax Duets
Freedom. Free-dom. What is it? And how do you get it? In music the word denotes something specific. At least in jazz. It means in part starting out a musical performance with the idea that what is going to happen will happen because the players spontaneously put their improvised parts together without a great deal of ...

Marc Ducret: Tower, Vol. 2
by Glenn Astarita
Marc Ducret is among the elite group of modern era guitarists who make a significant imprint on roads previously navigated, with a penchant for exploring bewildering musical vistas. His unique instrumental voice has been a source of wonderment for several decades. On his follow-up to Tower Vol. 1 (Ayler, 2011), featuring a horns-based quintet, Ducret realigns ...
Ches Smith, Tyshawn Sorey & Roy Haynes
by Martin Longley
Ches Smith & These Arches The Stone August 30, 2011 John Zorn's Stone was pretty much sold out for this single set by drummer Ches Smith's five-piece band. That's 74 folks crammed into a thankfully air-conditioned zone. The reason that the normally silenced A/C was allowed to thrum is ...
Mr. Rencore + Tim Berne: Intollerant
by AAJ Italy Staff
Se il gruppo si chiama Mr. Rencore. Se il disco s'intitola Intollerant. E se in copertina c'hanno schiaffato due macellai e due mezzene di suino grondanti sangue. Ecco, magari ti viene il dubbio che il mood sia sull'incazzato andante. E in effetti il clima è parecchio incazzoso. Perché Intollerant intollerante lo è sul serio. Intollerante e ...
