Dylan Ryan Sand: Circa
by Maurizio Comandini
Dopo l'eccellente Bleached Sky del 2012, il trio del batterista Dylan Ryan torna sul luogo del delitto con una bella tanica di benzina e accende un fuoco capace di brillare per la notte intera. L'incendiario principale è, come al solito, il bravissimo chitarrista Tim Young, cresciuto all'ombra di Wayne Horvitz e dei suoi Zony Mash, con ...
Wayne Horvitz/The Royal Room Collective Music Ensemble: At The Reception, Wayne Horvitz: 55: Music And Dance In Concrete
by John Ephland
Wayne Horvitz is a musical universe unto himself. Has been for well over 35 years. And it's not just his stick-to-it-ive-ness that continues to make his music so damn engaging, a contrariness redefined. Consider these two recent releases as prime examples. The composer/bandleader/keyboardist (who turns 60 in 2015) has a musical history that just might grab ...
Wayne Horvitz/The Royal Room Collective Music Ensemble: At The Reception
by Mark Corroto
Wayne Horvitz already has lovely. It's a tool he wields with ease in his music, be it in his Gravitas Quartet of piano/trumpet/cello/bassoon, his Sweeter Than The Day acoustic quartet or the electric Zony Mash. He even brought lovely to John Zorn's shocking Naked City bands of the 1990s. Horvitz has the ability to distill music, ...
Dylan Ryan / Sand: Circa
by Troy Collins
Sand is the latest project from forward-thinking drummer Dylan Ryan, leader and principal composer of Herculaneum, a progressive ensemble that skillfully negotiates the tenuous divide between avant-garde jazz and instrumental post-rock. This smaller lineup (featuring guitarist Timothy Young and bassist Devin Hoff) evinces a similar aesthetic, exploring the harmonic, melodic and rhythmic intricacies of creative improvised ...
I nuovi orchestratori - 2: Kyle Saulnier - Rob Mazurek
by Angelo Leonardi
Parliamo ancora di orchestre e arrangiatori [per leggere la prima puntata di questo approfondimento -clicca qui. Tralasciando per il momento di considerare i contributi più innovativi della scena europea (tra cui spiccano la Vienna Art Orchestra e l'Italian Instabile Orchestra) dopo la stagione del Free la ricerca d'avanguardia statunitense non si è fermata. Purtroppo ...
Wayne Horvitz: 55: Music and Dance In Concrete
by Glenn Astarita
Reviewed on LP, the only other option for this release is a digital download, but with the latter you won't get the sharp colorful booklet that includes photos of the corresponding dance moves, choreographed by Yukio Suzuki and Wayne Horvitz' detailed album notes. The album was recorded at an old military base, Fort Worden that is ...
Save the Date - Giugno 2014
by Luca Canini
È stato un maggio entusiasmante. Il quartetto di Michael Formanek e l'Arkestra a Vicenza, l'omaggio a “Butch" Morris confezionato da Wayne Horvitz passato da Novara e Bologna, gli Overseas IV di Evind Opsvik a Correggio e Foligno, Andy Moor e Yannis Kyriakides visti a Forlì e Venezia: una meraviglia appresso all'altra per un mese di grande ...
Save the Date - Maggio 2014
by Luca Canini
Maggio, tempo di festival. L'estate si avvicina e nel Bel Paese è tutto uno sbocciare di rassegne. I mega eventi da piazza piena e sudata, i soliti programmi fotocopiati, le inutili poltiglie che tanto piacciono agli assessori e le proposte che invece piacciono a noi di All About Jazz. Non tantissime, a dire il vero. Siamo ...
Douglas Detrick’s Anywhen Ensemble: The Bright and Rushing World
by Mark Corroto
Go ahead, ask the question, “But is it jazz?" Douglas Detrick's Anywhen Ensemble presents the ten movement suite, The Bright and Rushing World, a continuous piece of music, commissioned by Chamber Music America. So maybe it isn't jazz. Detrick's ensemble contains a jazz drummer Ryan Biesack, who can be heard on Pieces (OA2 Records, ...
