Misha Tsiganov: Misha's Wishes

by Edward Blanco
March 29, 2022

New York-based pianist and composer Misha Tsiganov, a well-established jazz veteran having appeared on countless albums throughout his career, presents his seventh recording as leader with Misha's Wishes, conceived and birthed during the COVID pandemic, when his time at home offered the perfect opportunity to develop this project. The long-time isolation during 2020 allowed the pianist to write, as he states, “some nice music that people will enjoy," which he certainly accomplishes here, providing seven originals in addition to reimagined ...

Dino Govoni: Hiding in Plain Sight

by Jack Bowers
December 5, 2021

Tenor saxophonist Dino Govoni acquits himself well on the curiously-titled Hiding in Plain Sight, his third album for Whaling City Sound, as do his colleagues on this basically bop-leaning, mainly quintet studio date. The qualifier “mainly" is necessary because trumpeter Alex Sipiagin performs on only five of the album's nine tracks. On the others, Govoni is cradled by his capable rhythm section, pianist Henry Hey, bassist Michael Pope and drummer Jeff “Tain" Watts. Each of the numbers ...

Francesco Zampini: Unknown Path

by Luigi Sforza
January 27, 2021

Per questo secondo disco da leader, il giovane chitarrista e compositore fiorentino Francesco Zampini (classe 1993) guida un vigoroso quintetto che comprende un'infuocata, solida e muscolosa sezione ritmica (Michelangelo Scandroglio al contrabbasso e Bernardo Guerra alla batteria), un vulcanico e possente pianista, l'iberico Xavi Torres, e il russo Alex Sipiagin, che alla tromba incanta per il suo suono abbagliante, splendente e carezzevole insieme, qualità quest'ultima rintracciabile specie quando suona nel registro medio. A confronto con brani originali ed ...

Conrad Herwig: The Latin Side of Horace Silver

by Jack Bowers
September 16, 2020

New York-based trombonist Conrad Herwig began exploring the “Latin side" of various jazz musicians in 1996, with The Latin Side of John Coltrane, which earned him the first of four Latin Grammy Award nominations. Since then, Herwig has done the same for Miles Davis, Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Joe Henderson and, now, pianist Horace Silver. The formula is trim and solid; choose several of an artist's more notable compositions and recast them in a rhythmic Latin framework. For The Latin ...
