Rope: In the Moment (The Music of Charlie Haden)

Read "In the Moment (The Music of Charlie Haden)" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero


Questo è un grande disco. Di un grande trio. Punto. Si dirà : “Beh, con la musica di Charlie Haden..." Certo, con la musica di Charlie Haden... le cadute di stile, gli scivoloni, gli omaggi stereotipati sono sempre in agguato. Bisogna aver amato profondamente il contrabbassista di Shenandoah, essere entrato in sintonia con il suo sconfinato mondo musicale, averne percepito le molteplici sfaccettature, gli snodi evolutivi, averne assorbito l'essenza creativa per poter rivendicare un lavoro legato a doppio ...

ROPE: Fabrizio Puglisi / Stefano Senni / Zeno De Rossi: Saints And Sinners

Read "Saints And Sinners" reviewed by Mark Corroto


All jazz trios are charged with the command to “make it new," and very few accomplish that directive. Some impersonate the giants of jazz, while others play a parody--massacring styles in the name of modernizing the sound. Neither is the case for the trio known as ROPE. Pianist Fabrizio Puglisi, bassist Stefano Senni, and drummer Zeno De Rossi regenerate the music of Thelonious Monk, Duke Ellington, W.C. Handy, John Lewis, and Bill Frisell with a vitality and passion for trio ...

Wes Montgomery Live in Europe, 1965

Wes Montgomery Live in Europe, 1965

Source: JazzWax by Marc Myers

Fortunately for us, guitarist Wes Montgomery went over to Europe in the spring of 1965 and toured. We're lucky, because Montgomery wound up on European TV shows during many of his stops, resulting in lots of video clips. Yesterday, I decided to string together all the live 1965 dates I could find on YouTube, giving you an opportunity to hear and see him on the road. Here's Montgomery on tour in Europe in March, April and May 1965. Here's Montgomery ...

Tenor Saxophonist Walt Weiskopf Reconvenes His Celebrated European Quartet On 'Diamonds And Other Jewels,' Arriving August 19 On Amm Records

Waylaid by the COVID-19 pandemic, tenor saxophonist Walt Weiskopf and his European Quartet return with a vengeance on Diamonds and Other Jewels, set for an August 19 release on AMM Records. A collection of Weiskopf originals (and one standard), it demonstrates the powerful chemistry Weiskopf shares with pianist Carl Winther, bassist Andreas Lang, and drummer Anders Mogensen—matched by their audible relish at being back together. The album is the sixth release by the acclaimed quartet, assembled by Weiskopf in winter ...

Source: Terri Hinte Publicity

Pianist Milen Kirov finds the perfect formula with the June 3 release of Spatium on Independent Creative Sound and Music (ICSM) Records. A solo piano performance of 13 originals, the album is precisely the melting pot of styles that has long been the focus of the multi-dimensional Kirov’s creative journey. “My goal is to find the meeting point of three traditions: Western classical music, American jazz and blues, and Bulgarian traditional music,” the native Bulgarian pianist says. “There is no ...

A New Jazz Opera From Kabir Sehgal And Marie Incontrera, 'Angela's Ring,' Explores The European Debt Crisis

Source: Mouthpiece Music

The mere thought of a jazz opera based on the European debt crisis might be enough to send potential listeners running for the exits, but Angela's Ring, a new work co-composed by bassist Kabir Sehgal and pianist Marie Incontrera, is an entertaining and enlightening view of recent history perfectly set to a unique hybrid genre. Uniting the diverse countries of Europe through a common currency was an audacious idea from the start. Many of the countries had been at war ...

It is a strange feeling to write a piece about a jazz festival while the first band is on stage.

From February 25 through March 4, Szczecin Jazz Festival hosts a lineup of international artists including Belmondo Quintet, Alexander Beets Quintet ft. Ellister van der ...
