ill., br. Lee Konitz, considerato il più famoso interprete dello stile cool sul sassofono contralto, ha forgiato un sound unico tra i musicisti della sua generazione, riuscendo a percorrere una strada indipendente e alternativa rispetto a quella di Charlie Parker, il più influente sassofonista della storia del jazz. La sua carriera comincia nell'orchestra di Claude Thornhill verso la fine degli anni Quaranta, quando entra in contatto con Miles Davis e Gil Evans, con i quali parteciperà poi alle storiche incisioni di Birth of the Cool. Grande importanza nella sua fase formativa la ricopre anche Lennie Tristano, musicista con cui intrattiene un complesso rapporto e con il quale inciderà alcuni memorabili dischi: attraverso la scuola di Tristano incontra il tenorsassofonista Warne Marsh, che diventerà una sorta di suo alter ego musicale. L'ingaggio con Stan Kenton lo porterà quindi al centro della scena del jazz mondiale, segnando l'inizio della sua maturità artistica. Andy Hamilton traccia in questo volume la storia umana e professionale di Konitz, e ne discute le idee mettendo a fuoco alcuni temi chiave: dal valore della melodia alla forma "tema con variazioni", dalle qualità del timbro al sound come cifra stilistica, fino a toccare il cuore delle sue convinzioni in merito alla dialettica fra composizione e improvvisazione.
br. In "Possibilities", il leggendario pianista e compositore Herbie Hancock riflette su ben sette decenni di vita e carriera vissuti da vero innovatore, nei quali ha esplorato ogni genere musicale e lasciato un'impronta indelebile sul jazz, I'r&b e l'hip-hop, garantendosi al contempo il successo testimoniato dai quattordici Grammy Awards vinti. Dagli inizi come bambino prodigio al lavoro in quintetto con Miles Davis, dalle innovazioni introdotte come leader di un sestetto rivoluzionario alla collaborazione con musicisti del calibro di Wayne Shorter, Joni Mitchell e Stevie Wonder -passando per le sue influenze musicali, divertenti dietro le quinte, il suo matrimonio lungo e felice e il suo rapporto creativo e personale con il buddismo - queste pagine rivelano il metodo che si cela dietro l'innegabile genio musicale di Hancock. Illuminante e vitale come l'uomo che l'ha scritta, questa autobiografia è un contributo alla letteratura jazz e una lettura obbligata per gli appassionati e gli amanti della musica.
