Drew Gress: The Irrational Numbers

Read "The Irrational Numbers" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Ad ogni nuovo disco Drew Gress conferma la sua statura di bassista, compositore e leader tra i più maturi e innovativi della scena attuale. Da almeno un decennio (non sembra che molti se ne siano accorti) i suoi gruppi esprimono una delle proposte più avvincenti del jazz statunitense, che si spinge negli ambiti della post-avanguardia senza ...

Drew Gress: The Irrational Numbers

Read "The Irrational Numbers" reviewed by Mark F. Turner


Drew Gress might be suffering from a Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde complex. On one side, he's the mild-mannered, in-demand bassist whose exemplary fret work has supported other artists' recordings--pianist Fred Hersch, The Claudia Quintet's For (Cuneiform Records, 2007) and the Steve Lehman Quintet's On Meaning (Pi Recordings, 2007), to name just a few. However, on the flip ...

Drew Gress: The Irrational Numbers

Read "The Irrational Numbers" reviewed by John Kelman


Bassist Drew Gress returns with the same group from 7 Black Butterflies (Premonition, 2005), but The Irrational Numbers is more than a logical continuation of Butterflies' postmodern lyricism. Instead, it's an album of more vivid extremes, ranging from detailed writing to even freer improvisational exchanges and an overall greater sense of adventure. Not that Butterflies was ...

Drew Gress: 7 Black Butterflies

Read "7 Black Butterflies" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Lo swing ed il senso orchestrale della musica sono gli aspetti che sembrano emergere con maggior evidenza dall’ascolto di questo CD. Una qualche riedizione dei fasti del jazz classico, con un quintetto che ripropone canonicamente i tradizionali concetti di melodia, armonia e ritmo, la sacra triade del jazz puro e duro? Niente affatto, se l’ensemble in ...

Drew Gress: 7 Black Butterflies

Read "7 Black Butterflies" reviewed by John Kelman


Along with Scott Colley, Drew Gress must be the most ubiquitous bassist on the New York scene. Gress' broad stylistic reach has allowed him to support artists including pianist Fred Hersch, trumpeter Dave Douglas, and saxophonist Tim Berne since arriving on the scene in the late '80s. Capable of bringing an unerring sense of tradition to ...
