Read "Jakob Baekgaard's Best Releases Of 2016" reviewed by Jakob Baekgaard

by Jakob Baekgaard

The world seems more uncertain than ever before, but in times of uncertainty, music provides comfort and a hope that it is actually possible to communicate across borders, whether they be physical or psychological. Among the releases that caught my attention this year, the one that meant most to me by far is ...

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

Read "Live in Sant’Anna Arresi, 2004" reviewed by Karl Ackermann

by Karl Ackermann

Describing David S. Ware as a maverick would be a gimmicky shortcut around the depth of the late saxophonist's vision. Outside of John Coltrane we have not seen a Ware contemporary with more depth of spirituality, presented in such a visceral way. Similarly, Matthew Shipp employs a type of unimaginable creative mysticism that transcends technique and ...

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

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

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. As humans, we desire this experience. Fortunately, music affords us this opportunity at just about ...

Rosa Brunello Y Los Fermentos: Upright Tales

Read "Upright Tales" reviewed by Giuseppe Segala

by Giuseppe Segala

La tradizione del contrabbassista-leader è una consuetudine che nel jazz ha dato frutti sapidi. Da Charles Mingus a Charlie Haden e Dave Holland, fino ai più recenti Chris Lightcap, Ben Allison e Michael Formanek, ma senza dimenticare la grande forza creativa di William Parker, il contrabbassista-leader ha sempre dato un'impronta forte all'impostazione di gruppi originali. Forse ...

Samantha Boshnack: A Musical World Without Boundaries

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

by Paul Rauch

The city of Seattle has an eclectic relationship with jazz historically, in terms of innovation and embracing the notion of music without boundaries, of musical communities interacting and supporting each other. Samantha Boshnack fits perfectly into that musical paradigm. Whether writing and performing with her 14 piece ensemble B'shnorkestra, or in a quintet setting, Boshnack has ...

Arthur Williams: Forgiveness Suite

Read "Forgiveness Suite" reviewed by John Sharpe

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

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 ...

by AAJ Staff

Finito il mese di ottobre, riprendiamo la vecchia rubrica “Things We Like," dove, un po' per passione e un po' per gioco, descriviamo le cose (musicali e non) che ci rimarranno impresse del mese appena trascorso. Alberto Bazzurro Ottobre, mese pre-referendario per eccellenza (non quel referendum...), si porta generalmente appresso una caterva ...
