Hrayr Attarian's Top Dozen with a Feminine Bend for 2013
By
Here is my top dozen for 2013 (with a feminine bent and in alphabetical order). Women remain unjustly underrepresented as instrumentalists in jazz. Hopefully these superb records will help improve that disparity by introducing listeners to these outstandingly creative artists and their stimulating work.
Jamie Baum In This Life (Sunnyside Records) | Celine Bonacina Open Heart (ACT) | Billie Davies 12 Volt (Self Produced) |
Satoko Fujii Ma-Do Time Stands Still (Not Two Records) | Mary Halvorson Illusionary Sea (Firehouse 12) | Ingrid Laubrock Anti-House Strong Place (Intakt) |
Nicole Mitchell Aquarius (Delmark) | Linda May Han Oh Sun Pictures (Green Leaf) | Matana Roberts Coin Coin Chapter Two: Mississippi Moonchile (Constellation) |
Karolina Strassmayer Small Moments (Lilypad Music) | Yuhan Su Flying Alone (Inner Circle) | Lisa Ullén and Nina de Heney Look Right (LJ Records) |
