Martin Küchen/Jon Rune Strøm/Tollef Østvang: Melted Snow

Read "Melted Snow" reviewed by John Sharpe

by John Sharpe

Not Quite All Included or Some Included might be appropriate names for the trio of Swedish saxophonist Martin Küchen, and Norwegian bassist Jon Rune Strøm and drummer Tollef Østvang. Reason being that the repertoire on Melted Snow partially replicates that on Satan in Plain Clothes (Clean Feed, 2015) by All Included, which comprises the same threesome ...

Mette Rasmussen/Chris Corsano: All The Ghosts At Once

Read "All The Ghosts At Once" reviewed by Mark Corroto

Today's hypothesis states that all free jazz improvisation demands the musicians maintain the music's vigor like a juggler, to all appearances, keeping all the balls in the air at once. Proof of this theory is the opening piece “Train Track" from alto saxophonist Mette Rasmussen and drummer Chris Corsano's release All The Ghosts At Once. The ...

Lacerda / Manso / Nilssen-Love / Zenicola: Bota Fogo

Read "Bota Fogo" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

There are secrets revealed and the true identities of musicians often emerge, not under the guidance of a music producer, but within the allegiances they form as they freelance around the world. Take Norwegian drummer Paal Nilssen-Love, for instance. Early (very early) in his career he (and bassist Ingebrigt Håker Flaten) backed players like Bugge Wesseltoft, ...

Zanussi 5: Live in Coimbra

Read "Live in Coimbra" reviewed by Vic Albani

by Vic Albani

Nato a Oslo nel 1977 ma con un papà che sicuramente norvegese non è (e che quasi sicuramente non ha nemmeno a che fare con il famoso marchio di costruttori di cucine italiche), l'energetico contrabbassista italo-norvegese ha avuto la buona idea di registrare i propri interventi live tenuti il 31 maggio e il 1° giugno 2013 ...

Marius Neset/Trondheim Jazz Orchestra: Lion

Read "Lion" reviewed by Ian Patterson

by Ian Patterson

Lion is a good name for Marius Neset's first recording with the Trondheim Jazz Orchestra, for like a great cat, the Norwegian orchestra purrs and prowls, roars and pounces. Regardless of tempo--whether cruising or charging--there's majesty in the collective voice. Commissioned for the Molde Jazz Festival in 2012, the momentum from that performance took Neset and ...
