The incident is conceived as a sonic storyboard, a labyrinthine, narrative-driven 'pseudo musical' - using comical sonic touches and startling, idiosyncratic abstractions to reflect the era's flustering absurdity. divided into 4 chapters, the first part ('let the record show'), ponders upon the end of the information age - as we stumble on to an age of corroboration and mutual witnessing...observe, acknowledge, transform, throw back - and reality getting replaced by its representation. 'the curr…

New Vienna is the fourth concert recording to be released from Keith Jarrett’s final European solo tour. It follows Munich 2016, Budapest Concert and Bordeaux Concert. Why New Vienna? As Jarrett aficionados will know, his discography already includes a legendary Vienna Concert (recorded at the Vienna State Opera) whose music, he once claimed, spoke “the language of the flame itself”, after long years of “courting the fire”.

Stefano Portello is an artist who works with music and ceramics. For years, Stefano has been shaping ceramics to give shape to small ocarinas that he builds and plays himself. Each ocarina is born as a unique piece, becoming a perfectly functioning musical instrument. Its shapes are essential and inspired by nature. The melodies he plays are simple, repetitive, almost hypnotic. They do not seek virtuosity, but evoke a sense of calm and a return to the essential. Stefano Portello's work is an inv…

Recorded in 1957 this is one of Charles Mingus's lesser known sessions. Here the master was at the head of an awesome band including some of his regular sidemen. Jimmy Knepper - trombone, Shafi Hadi - alto saxophone, tenor saxophone and Dannie Richmond - drums, along with nothing but Bill Evans on piano! This is dense, lyrical and very stimulating music deeply rooted in the bop tradition yet with an open ear to other sound territories.

"There is something quite ephemeral and special about the prepared piano – it’s mostly to do with how every instrument responds differently to these treatments but also that it’s not very exact, even if, in the case of Cage, is quite precise. His instructions seem quite prescriptive: although, unless you know actually piano model he was using and the objects he was talking about, you’re always making adjustments. The preparing is just like other notation – there is quite a bit of interpretation …
