An accomplished percussionist, he is known for blurring, if not completely erasing, the boundaries between the pre-written and the improvised.

Pianist Joey Alexander was never going to spend his life churning out standards. You could tell from his reimagined version of “Giant Steps," the first track on his 2015 debut album, which begins with a dazzling two-minute solo introduction. The same album also features an original tune, the prowling “Ma Blues." It was clearly only going ...

To say that Mesmerism by the Tyshawn Sorey Trio is a departure from the drummer's regular programming is an understatement.

Typically, he prefers intricate arrangements and repeated ...
