Oliver Lake / William Parker: To Roy
by John Sharpe
Bassist William Parker has formed productive liaisons with some wonderfully expressive alto saxophone players in the past--Rob Brown and Jemeel Moondoc both spring to mind. But To Roy represents his first time on record with Oliver Lake, best known as a third of Trio 3 and a quarter of the World Saxophone Quartet. They recorded their ...

I 10 CD nel CD player di... Nicola Guazzaloca
by Vincenzo Roggero
01. Massimo De Mattia -Quartet Hypermodern (Rudi Records -2014). Un lavoro in cui le individualità emergono nitide ed autorevoli, ogni elemento è inserito nel processo con salda intenzione e responsabilità, con sottesa energia lungo un percorso timbricamente vario e stratificato, a snodarsi fra le geometrie evocate dal flauto di De Mattia nel pulsare di ...
Oliver Lake, William Parker: To Roy
by Stefano Merighi
Non mi risulta che Oliver Lake e William Parker abbiano mai collaborato prima di questo ottimo To Roy, almeno in studio.

Ma poco importa. Il loro magistero ...

Konstrukt and William Parker: Live At NHKM
by Mark Corroto
Let me propose the notion that American poet Emily Dickinson was a free jazz fan. Sure, you have to look past the fact that she died in 1886, when Buddy Bolden was but nine years old. But consider her words: “The worthlessness of Earthly things/The Ditty is that Nature Sings -/And then -enforces their delight/Til Synods ...
