Julia Hulsmann Quartet w/ Theo Bleckmann: A Clear Midnight - Kurt Weill and America
by Neri Pollastri
Cambia ancora la formazione del gruppo diretto dalla pianista tedesca Julia Hülsmann, includendo adesso--oltre la tromba e il flicorno di Tom Arthurs, arrivato nel precedente lavoro--anche la voce del talentuoso ed eclettico vocalist tedesco Theo Bleckmann.

Julia Hülsmann Quartet w/ Theo Bleckmann: A Clear Midnight - Weill and America
by John Kelman
Given enough time, things in life often come around full circle. Julia Hülsmann's three recordings for Munich's ACT label were all vocal affairs, where the German pianist's core trio--with bassist Marc Muellbauer and drummer Heinrich Köbberling--were joined by singers ranging from Norway's Rebekka Bakken to Germany's Roger Cicero. Since moving to another Munich label, the more ...
Ingrid Laubrock Octet: Zurich Concert
by John Sharpe
Even though numbering just eight strong, Ingrid Laubrock makes such skillful use of the talented cast at her disposal on Zurich Concert that the band delivers an almost orchestral experience. She achieves that through the deployment of three chordal instruments in Mary Halvorson's guitar, Liam Noble's piano and Ted Reichman's accordion. Not that you would characterize ...

Julia Hülsmann Quartet: In Full View
by AAJ Italy Staff
Nuovo lavoro per la pianista tedesca, accompagnata dalla sua fida ritmica ma stavolta anche affiancata dal trombettista inglese Tom Arthurs, che sposta in modo significativo il suono del gruppo. Il lirismo la fa infatti ancor più da padrone che nel passato, grazie alla cantabilità dell'approccio strumentale di Arthurs che si sposa con l'indole già molto lirica ...

Julia Hulsmann Quartet: In Full View
by John Kelman
There's no denying the benefit of stable longevity, but neither is there anything wrong with change. Following three ACT recordings that featured her trio--together since Scattering Poems (ACT, 2003)--supporting a series of vocalists, Julia Hülsmann moved to ECM, where the pianist was afforded greater freedom to more fully explore her trio's potential on 2008's The End ...
