Travis Sullivan
Born:
Posi-Tone Records recording artist Travis Sullivan has earned a worldwide reputation as an alto saxophonist, pianist, composer, and arranger. Embedded in the New York music scene for the past 15 years, he has been hailed by Jazz Times as being “…a gifted alto saxophonist and improviser who has also developed a strong and commanding voice as a composer.” Sullivan’s most recent CD was released in 2011: New Directions, his third album as a leader and his debut on Posi-Tone Records. New Directions presents eight of his original modern jazz compositions, as well as Rodgers & Hart’s “Spring is Here,” and his arrangement of the Tears for Fears classic “Everybody Wants to Rule the World.” The new album also features his newly formed group The Travis Sullivan Quartet, which will be performing nationally and throughout Europe later this year. New Directions is his first small ensemble release in over a decade

[Long] Live (at) the Jazz Standard! - Part 1
by Ludovico Granvassu
A jazz club is not just a commercial enterprise, or an entertainment spot, it's a cultural hub, a place where ideas are exchanged, styles are tested and then defined, careers are inspired, collaborations get launched or cemented. When a venue like the Jazz Standard closes the loss should not be seen only in terms of a ...
Aubrey Johnson: Unraveled
by C. Michael Bailey
What does it take to move music from the strictly aural to revealing the more tactile elements like texture and consistency? Vocal artist, composer and arranger Aubrey Johnson, with her scoring hat on, demonstrates that intelligent instrument choice and subtle arrangement of notes in time coupled with sensitive sound engineering can produce music with a palpable ...
Björk: Jazz Muse & Hyperballadeer
by Ludovico Granvassu
If jazz is, as someone put it, the sound of surprise, then it makes complete sense that countless musicians have become enamored with the music of Björk. Like the most innovative jazz musicians, Bjork is a restless artist who tries to continuously reinvent herself, often blending familiar sources in completely unprecedented ways, and deliberately challenging the ...

Mario Schenker: Melodien
by Luca Casarotti
C'è in questo Melodien, disco in quartetto del sassofonista svizzero Mario Schenker pubblicato dalla connazionale etichetta Unit, una sorta di divisione, di scarto tra temi e parti solistiche. I temi non sono memorabili. In senso letterale, proprio: non sono memorabili perché non restano impressi all'ascolto, non perché sono mal composti. Forse quello era precisamente l'intento: non ...

Travis Sullivan's Bjorkestra: I Go Humble
by Jack Bowers
Until this new CD crossed the threshold, the name Bjork was no more than that within these precincts. As it turns out, Bjork is a she, an Icelandic singer / songwriter whose given name is Bjork Gudmundsdottir. Apparently, saxophonist / arranger Travis Sullivan is an avowed enthusiast, as he has not only named his big band ...
Travis Sullivan's Björkestra: I Go Humble
by Dan Bilawsky
Björk isn't a member of the jazz community, but the jazz community has had no problem embracing her. Musicians as different as vocalist Kate McGarry and drummer Jeff “Tain" Watts have explored the eclectic Icelandic singer's work and put their own stamp on her intoxicating music, but they each left her catalog after a single-song visit. ...
