Ivo Perelman: What A Year In Music
by Mark Corroto
There is an adage in the music world that one is damned to be a completist. Ever since performances have been captured on cylinders, records, and now digitally, music devotees have endeavored to collect entire catalogs of their favorite musicians or ensembles. Think about the obsessive hunters of 78 rpm blues records from backwoods artists of ...
Good Company
by Bob Osborne
The title of Art Hirahara's new release embraces the spirit of jazz. Music made in good company with musicians interacting to create something special. Two new albums from ground-breaking saxophonist Ivo Perelman reflect this approach as well with the creation of music which pushes at boundaries.

Nicole Mitchell, Lina Allemano, Laubrock / Rainey & Parker / Barket / Irabagon
by Maurice Hogue
After a few shows shortened in length, I had to go back to the old three-hour joint to get all of this terrific music happening. Highlights: the Chicago Afrofuturism of Nicole Mitchell meets the Malian kora legend Ballake Sissoko on Bamako Chicago Sound System; multi-instrumentalist William Parker, drummer Andrew Barker and saxophonist Jon Irabagon cook up ...

Ingrid Laubrock / Tom Rainey: Brink
by Mark Corroto
Could there be a more intimate sound than that of Brink? The saxophone/drums recording by reedist Ingrid Laubrock and percussionist Tom Rainey is as personal as it gets between two working jazz improvisers. The reason may be that Laubrock and Rainey are not just partners in music, but also life partners. Rainey is one of the ...

by John Sharpe
New and old converge on Water Music. Tenor saxophonist Ivo Perelman showcases a quartet with longstanding partner Matthew Shipp on piano together with the fresh rhythm axis of bassist Mark Helias and drummer Tom Rainey. Although they have not played with Perelman before, they are not exactly Johnny-come-latelys. Both have achieved veteran status, not only individually, ...
Lucian Ban, Mat Maneri: Oedipe Redux
by Neri Pollastri
Pur se da venticinque anni residente negli U.S.A., il pianista Lucian Ban non ha mai smesso di coltivare le sue radici rumene, che spesso anzi caratterizzano sottilmente la sua prolifica produzione artistica. In particolare, assieme al violista Mat Maneri --con il quale collabora assai spesso, contribuendo recentemente al suo album Ash --ha più volte proposto apprezzati ...
Ivo Perelman + Tom Rainey: Duologues 1 Turning Point

Innovative saxophonist Ivo Perelman thrives in small groups with like-minded musicians, as is amply demonstrated throughout his one-of-a-kind oeuvre. In drummer Tom Rainey, Perelman has found yet another perfect partner for shared improvisational explorations. The two men have complementary artistic visions as demonstrated by the superb Truth Seeker (Fundacja Słuchaj, 2024) with bassist Mark Helias. Similar ...
Lana Meets Jazz 2024
by Paolo Peviani
Lana Meets Jazz 2024 Lana (BZ) 11-16.6.2024 Raccontare Lana Meets Jazz soffermandosi solo sugli aspetti musicali, sulle recensioni dei concerti, sarebbe riduttivo. Nelle intenzioni più o meno esplicite degli organizzatori, la sassofonista Helga Plankensteiner e il pianista Michael Lösch, questo festival infatti è anche (soprattutto?) un modo per avvicinare i cittadini ...
