Unscientific Italians: Play The Music Of Bill Frisell Vol. 2
by Neri Pollastri
Prosegue l'omaggio alla musica di Bill Frisell da parte degli Unscientific Italians che, dopo il disco uscito nel 2021, presentano adesso un secondo volume, proposto anche in un doppio vinile assieme al primo. La formazione è la medesima, anche se ci sono un paio di avvicendamenti in alcune tracce: musicisti in larga parte precedentemente membri del collettivo di El Gallo Rojo--nel cui interno, nel 2008, era nato il progetto, poi lasciato inattivo per dieci anni--o comunque frequenti collaboratori ...

by Chris May
Poetry & Jazz has a checkered history. When combined, the two art forms are not so much a marriage made in heaven as an obstacle course.

by Bruce Lindsay
The Oldest Living Thing is trumpeter and composer Sigurta's sixth album as leader or co-leader, his fourth for the Cam Jazz label. He's also recorded with pianist Francesco Turrisi and as a member of Nostalgia 77. For this album he's joined by acoustic guitarist Federico Casagrande (who shares writing duties) and Steve Swallow on electric bass. Sigurta and Casagrande form an empathic partnership and prove to be complementary in their writing styles. Both men leave plenty of space ...
