by Angelo Leonardi
Il jazz britannico contemporaneo non si esaurisce nel multiforme movimento londinese di Shabaka Hutchings, Nubya Garcia, Ashley Henry, Theon Cross, Kokoroko eccetera. Meno noti in Italia ma non meno interessanti sono i jazzmen legati al filone del mainstream jazz statunitense, come la sassofonista Trish Clowes e il pianista Ross Stanley, che da un decennio animano il quartetto My Iris. Le loro fonti d'ispirazione sono in particolare Wayne Shorter e John Taylor, a cui dedicano in parte il ...

by Ian Patterson

A studio album by design, there is, nevertheless, an unguarded, searching quality to these exchanges which is more in keeping with the energy of a live performance. Blurring the lines between improvisation and composition, this intuitive duo artfully muddies the waters of jazz and classical, traditional ...

1. Chico Buarque: Construção (Philips, 1971) This is a very new find, although released in 1971. Just take a listen, what a mind! 2. Joe Henderson: Double Rainbow (Verve, 1995) I was doing a lot of listening to Brazilian music recently (including the above album!) and as a result I was drawn back to this brilliant album. All roads lead to Joe Henderson. He's the person who brings it all together for me, ...

by Vincenzo Roggero
1. Chico Buarque, Construção (Philips, 1971). È una nuova scoperta, benchè l'album sia del 1971. Dategli un ascolto, geniale! 2. Joe Henderson, Double Rainbow (Verve, 1995). Sto ascoltando parecchia musica brasiliana ultimamente e ciò mi ha fatto recuperare questo bellissimo album. Tutte le strade portano a Joe Henderson, collega tutti i punti tra i grandi sassofonisti. 3. Charlie Haden, Paul/Motian, Geri Allen Etudes (Soul Note, 1987). La pianista e compositrice ...
