Alan Ferber Big Band: Jigsaw

Read "Jigsaw" reviewed by Jack Bowers


The Jigsaw mapped out by trombonist Alan Ferber's splendid New York City-based ensemble comprises a number of dissimilar pieces, drawn from a broad range of musical patterns, which makes its assemblage arduous yet ultimately rewarding. Ferber's sophisticated arrangements manifest a pensive, and at times ethereal, temper that is far removed from the realm of flag-wavers and ...

Alan Ferber: Jigsaw

Read "Jigsaw" reviewed by Angelo Leonardi


Tra il pubblico del jazz italiano è colpevolmente poco noto.

George Schuller: JigSaw

Read "JigSaw" reviewed by Ty Cumbie


If the opening violin/trombone duo (Mark Feldman and Curtis Hasselbring, who also plays guitar on the session) momentarily reveals a strong vein of new classical influence, the ensuing drum/bass vamp, topped with a spirited trumpet solo (I would bet money Dave Ballou made some funky physical movements delivering it) dispels any fear of being subjected to ...

George Schuller: JigSaw

Read "JigSaw" reviewed by John Kelman


As an extension of his Schulldogs project, JigSaw finds drummer/composer George Schuller following somewhat in the third stream path of his father Gunther.
