Two masters who have invented a (the?) lexicon for their instruments meet on So It Goes. British saxophonist Evan Parker and his compatriot bassist Barry Guy should need no introduction to anyone interested in European free improvisation. Both active since the 1970s, they remain vital forces even with as they both move into their eighth decade. ...

December 24, 2018

From the first few seconds of the opening “Red Green" onwards, this live recording from trumpeter Peter Evans and bassist Barry Guy is a feat of death defying bravura.

Torben Snekkestad & Barry Guy: Slip Slide And Collide

Read "Slip Slide And Collide" reviewed by Enrico Bettinello

by Enrico Bettinello
October 2, 2014

Una musica del dettaglio, della sovrapposizione di brevi bagliori e schegge d'ombra. Si incontrano qui i sassofoni del norvegese Torben Snekkestad e il contrabbasso di Barry Guy, dentro tredici cellule di dialogo dichiarate della durata ciascuna di 2 minuti e 16 secondi, in realt�� di durata variabile, ma prevalentemente brevi. Un “inganno" apparentemente insignificante, ...
