Ab Baars Trio: Slate Blue
by Mark Corroto
There used to be something about the Dutch jazz scene that made it stand out from American jazz, British jazz, and well, other European happenings. The “New Dutch Swing," to borrow the title from Kevin Whitehead's 1998 book, comprised an irreverent brand of music making, with little regard to tradition. Dutch players leaned heavily on Dada ...
Ab Baars Trio: Slate Blue
by Neri Pollastri
Nelle sue recentissime risposte al “Questionario di Proust", Ab Baars affermava che il tratto per lui caratteristico della propria musica sia l'essere “allegramente ostinata."

by Libero Farnè
Come precisano le note di copertina del CD, inciso al Bimhuis di Amsterdam, “questa suite di brani liberamente improvvisati e in minima parte composti è stata concepita da Ab Baars e da Ig Henneman in occasione del tour statunitense dell'autunno 2012." Ognuno dei dieci brani s'ispira ad una poesia o a una composizione di tema autunnale ...
Art Strike!
by Mark Corroto
"Would you support an art strike?" That's the question I've been asking musicians for the past few months. “Will you agree to stop writing and performing music for one year?" In 1990 the London artists Stewart Home and Mark Pawson proposed that all artists cease to “make, exhibit, distribute, sell, or discuss their work" for three ...
