Manu Katché: Third Round
by AAJ Italy Staff
Manu Katché è un batterista molto versatile. Tanto versatile da trovarsi perfettamente a proprio agio in qualunque contesto. Sul canale televisivo franco-tedesco Arté, il nostro conduce una trasmissione musicale intitolata “One Shot Not," nella quale veste i panni del'house drummer e siede alla batteria accompagnando i diversi ospiti della trasmissione (che possono essere raffinatissimi jazzisti come ...
Manu Katche: Third Round
by Ian Patterson
Drummer Manu Katché's third album as leader on ECM, largely follows suit of his previous two on the legendary German label. A spectacularly inventive drummer, Katché demonstrated on Neighborhood (ECM,2005) and Playground (ECM, 200 7) that he's also a composer of highly attractive tunes, characterized by strong melodies and a gently lilting lyricism, guided by his ...
Third Round
by John Kelman
It would be beyond cute to suggest that Manu Katché marches to the beat of his own drummer. Still, in a career spanning three decades and regularly crossing over between pop, jazz and world music, the French kit-meister has demonstrated a unique propensity for groove and a distinct (and refreshing) avoidance of the “look at me" ...
Ketil Bjornstad: Remembrance
by John Kelman
In a career spanning four decades that only began reaching a wider international audience with the release of his first album for ECM, Water Stories (1993), Norwegian pianist Ketil Bjørnstad has collaborated with many fellow Scandinavians, including guitarists Terje Rypdal and Eivind Aarset, bassist Arild Andersen, drummer Jon Christensen and live sampler Jan Bang. Surprisingly, he ...
Tord Gustavsen: Restored, Returned
by AAJ Italy Staff
Il quintetto protagonista di questo bell'album del quarantenne pianista norvegese è in realtà tale solo a pizzichi e bocconi. L'iniziale “The Child Within," per esempio, è un duo piano/sax soprano, algido, delicato, fin quasi esangue. Certo schiettamente nordico. Un tratto tipico di questa landa del jazz contemporaneo è anche, senz'ombra di dubbio, la solennità: appunto quella ...
Tord Gustavsen Ensemble: Restored, Returned
by John Kelman
With three albums mining a seemingly narrow area--and proving just how broad that territory really--Norwegian pianist Tord Gustavsen changes gears with Restored, Returned. Abandoning the longstanding trio that, with Changing Places (ECM, 2003), The Ground (ECM, 2005), and Being There (ECM, 2007), brought him greater international acclaim, Restored's quintet remains relatively introspective in tone. Still, with ...
