by Paul Rauch

by Dan McClenaghan
Jazz trios featuring a horn, bass and drums get right to the core of musical expression. With, most commonly, a saxophone--see Sonny Rollins' blueprint for the horn and trio setting, the 1957 Contemporary Records album Way Out West--the music flows freely.

by Pierre Giroux
Pianist and arranger Caili O'Doherty has carved out a niche as both an incisive interpreter of the jazz tradition and an innovator unafraid to reshape it.

O'Doherty doesn't merely recreate Hardin's music; she reimagines it for the 21st Century with bold harmonies, time ...
Continue ReadingArtemis: Arboresque

by Mike Jurkovic
The virtuoso musicians of Artemis--pianist Renee Rosnes trumpeter Ingrid Jensen saxophonist Nicole Glover bassist Noriko Ueda, and drummer Allison Miller --get down to business quick on their third for Blue Note Arboresque. A testament to collaborative intuition and instinct, Arboresque may vary more in tempo and mood than its acclaimed predecessors--2023's ringing In Real Time and 2020's standard-setting debut Artemis--but it never lacks purpose or promise. It never goes looking for something it does not find. Jumping off with unsung pianist Donald Brown's ...
