Enrico Rava: Five Decades of Jazz [The co-leader and sideman] [Mondo Jazz Ep. 91]
b"After focusing on Enrico Rava's discography as leader, this week we explore his more than five decades of work as co-leader & sideman.\\nThe statuture of an artist can be measured not only through the albums s/he has recorded but also by the caliber of the musicians he has played with. There are not many who can claim to have collaborated with such a remarkable and diverse range of musicians like Cecil Taylor, Archie Shepp, Lee Konitz, Gianluigi Trovesi, Franco D'Andrea, Henri Texier, Aldo Romano, Marc Ducret, and Gato Barbieri, to name just a few. During the first part of the show we focus on his work in Europe. During the second part we explore his electric projects, duos, in particular with pianists, and work with heavy-weights of the NYC avant-garde scene like Cecil Taylor, Archie Shepp and Jimmy Lyons.\\nThe playlist also features Piero Umiliani, Louis Sclavis, Claudio Fasoli, Gebhard Ullmann, Riccardo Gatto, Rita Marcotulli, Salvatore Bonafede, Nexus, Richard Galliano, Karl Berger, Dino Saluzzi, Aga Taura Confab, Gas Mask, Robin Kenyatta, Giochi Proibiti, Stefano Bollani, Enrico Pieranunzi, Renato Sellani, Francesco Bearzatti, Barry Altschul.\\nDetailed playlist: https://spinitron.com/RFB/pl/9740347/Mondo-Jazz\\nPhoto credit: Luca D'Agostino (Phocus Agency)"
