David S. Ware/Matthew Shipp: Live in Sant'Anna Arresi 2004

Read "Live in Sant'Anna Arresi 2004" reviewed by Mark Corroto


In every mystical film we see, like A Sea Of Trees and A Dog's Purpose or book we read--A Sudden Light by Garth Stein or Life After Life by Kate Atkinson, the departed find a way to communicate with the living.

Forse ...

Samantha Boshnack: A Musical World Without Boundaries

Read "Samantha Boshnack: A Musical World Without Boundaries" reviewed by Paul Rauch

Arthur Williams: Forgiveness Suite

Read "Forgiveness Suite" reviewed by John Sharpe


Forgiveness Suite belatedly constitutes trumpeter Arthur Williams' first leadership date. A mysterious and troubled soul who flew below the radar, even within free jazz circles, Williams surfaced on a handful of albums in the 1970s and 80s before dropping from view not long after. His most notable appearances are documented on saxophonist Frank Lowe's Lowe And ...

David S. Ware & Matthew Shipp Duo: Live in Sant'Anna Arresi, 2004

Read "Live in Sant'Anna Arresi, 2004" reviewed by Giuseppe Segala


La frequentazione di David S. Ware e Matthew Shipp è stata scandita dai diciassette anni in cui il pianista era componente del quartetto guidato dal sassofonista, con William Parker al contrabbasso e l'avvicendamento di alcuni pregevoli batteristi. Ma il loro incontro diretto, a due, non è stato frequente in concerto e non li aveva mai portati ...

The Core Trio featuring Matthew Shipp: The Core Trio Live, featuring Matthew Shipp

Read "The Core Trio Live, featuring Matthew Shipp" reviewed by Karl Ackermann


What we have here is no-nonsense free improvisation where the track titles are chronologically functional but the music has a mind of its own. This is the Core Trio, who in direct opposition to that kind of pragmatic naming convention, have consistently performed and recorded as a small combo with an additional guest.
