Holywell Session - Live in Oxford by Pastor, Haslam, Beckett, Harris, Kershaw Slam Productions SLAMCD 324 - 2007 |
“Coming to you live from Oxford, macabre-toned Italian violinist Stefano Pastor, meets Harry Beckett and reedsman George Haslam in a vigorous modernist session falling somewhere between improv and a raw, blues-based jazz.” “In questo disco registrato dal vivo a Oxford, il violinista italiano dal tono macabro Stefano Pastor, incontra Harry Beckett e il saxofonista George Haslam in una vigorosa, modernista sessione che si colloca in qualche punto intermedio tra l’improvvisazione e un grezzo jazz fortemente fondato sul blues.” Selwyn Harris - Jazzwise – December 2007 |

Giampaolo Chiriacò - Jazzit anni 8 n. 41 July/August 2007

ha, naturalmente, una sensibilità europea (...) ma la sua innovativa concezione
improvvisativa è radicata nello sviluppo della tradizione jazz...” Anthony Barnett - Liner notes for Cycles - March 2007 |

“…The violinist from Genoa is an authentic improviser who approach with a lot of fantasy pieces conceived for different musical situations; he goes away from the original text with authority, playing the songs in him own way...” “…Il
violinista genovese è un vero improvvisatore, ricco di fantasia mentre affronta
brani scritti per tutt´altro tipo di situazioni, allontanandosi con autorità
dalla pagina scritta, facendoli propri così come fanno i jazzisti veri con i
brani del Real Book… ” Cosimo
