Ingrid Laubrock / Tom Rainey: Brink

Read "Brink" reviewed by Mark Corroto

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 ...

Ivo Perelman Quartet: Water Music

Read "Water Music" reviewed by John Sharpe

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

Read "Oedipe Redux" reviewed by Neri Pollastri

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

Read "Duologues 1  Turning Point" reviewed by Hrayr Attarian

Lana Meets Jazz 2024

Read "Lana Meets Jazz 2024" reviewed by Paolo Peviani

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 ...

Ivo Perelman Quartet: Water Music

Read "Water Music" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

Come on a rafting expedition with the Ivo Perelman Quartet. A river excursion is a perfect metaphor for the saxophonist's Water Music. Those familiar with the anomalous and idiosyncratic sounds that emanate from Perelman's saxophone also know he is attuned and reactive to the set and setting of a performance. Just as a trip on a ...

Read "Life Is Funny That Way" reviewed by Jerome Wilson

by Maurice Hogue

NYC multi-instrumentalist Matt Lavelle finally gets to see a dream fulfilled with the release of Crop Circles Suite Vol .1 by his 12 Houses Orchestra. Lavelle has been carefully crafting this very interesting album with its references to numerology and metaphysics for years. Finnish bassist Jonathan Backstrom has probably been carrying around his own dream: his ...

by Hrayr Attarian

Innovative Brazilian saxophonist and master improviser Ivo Perelman is as prolific as he is imaginative.
