Our Take

Bellocchio's latest album, "Gyorgy Kurtag: Ligatura," is a whirlwind of avant-garde jazz fusion that will leave you scratching your head in both confusion and delight. From start to finish, Bellocchio takes you on a musical journey through a cacophony of sound that is both chaotic and mesmerizing.

The album kicks off with the hauntingly beautiful track "Ligatura I," a haunting melody that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Bellocchio's mastery of the saxophone is on full display here, as he weaves in and out of dissonant chords with the precision of a surgeon.

As the album progresses, Bellocchio takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions with tracks like "Ligatura II" and "Ligatura III." These tracks showcase Bellocchio's ability to seamlessly blend elements of free jazz with traditional Hungarian folk tunes, creating a sound that is uniquely his own.

Overall, "Gyorgy Kurtag: Ligatura" is a bold and ambitious album that is not for the faint of heart. Bellocchio pushes the boundaries of what is possible in jazz music, creating a sonic landscape that is as unsettling as it is captivating. So buckle up, dear reader, and prepare yourself for a wild ride through the mind of one of jazz's most daring artists. Trust us, you won't want to miss it.
