Mike Marshall & Choro Famoso: Mike Marshall & Choro Famoso

Read "Mike Marshall & Choro Famoso" reviewed by John Kelman


Sometimes a single form or idea can yield a broad range of interpretations and a surprising number of results. Pianist Tord Gustavsen, on Changing Places , examined a particular tempo and mood, investigating the subdivisions within, while trumpeter Tomasz Stanko, on Soul of Things professed each movement to be a different view of the same song. ...

Orquestra Popular de Camara: Orquestra Popular de Camara

Read "Orquestra Popular de Camara" reviewed by John Kelman


The interpretation of Brazilian music is something that has been covered in virtually every context, from intimate solo and duet settings to full-out orchestral works. The key aspect of whatever setting is used is whether it maintains its authenticity. While traditional jazz groupings can cover the material, moulding it to a more North American rendering, the ...

Mike Marshall/Jovino Santos Neto: Serenata: The Music of Hermeto Pascoal

Read "Serenata: The Music of Hermeto Pascoal" reviewed by John Kelman


Brazilian composer Hermeto Pascoal has never sounded this good; well, at least he has never sounded this consistently accessible, and that’s a good thing and a bad thing. Good, because it will hopefully introduce a broader audience to the music of this under-appreciated artist; bad, because it will give that audience a misguided idea about what ...

Nelson Angelo: Cateret

Read "Cateret" reviewed by J. Robert Bragonier


For those who might wonder what is happening in Brazilian popular music these days, this album provides an interesting snapshot.

Such compositions as “Tiro Cruzado” and Canoa, Canoa” have become Brazilian standards. During his career, he ...

Mike Marshall and Jovino Santos Neto: Serenata - The Music of Hermeto Pascoal

Read "Serenata - The Music of Hermeto Pascoal" reviewed by Dr. Judith Schlesinger


This is the first CD entirely devoted to the music of Hermeto Pascoal, and it has a gentle misterioso feel to it. According to Andy Connell's liners Pascoal is variously known in his native Brazil as “the sorcerer," “the crazy albino," “the tropical forest gnome," “the bushy white- haired guy who plays pots and pans and ...

County Road X: County Road X

Read "County Road X" reviewed by Farrell Lowe


County Road X is the first recorded example of what keyboardist/composer Erik Deutsch lovingly dubs "trailer park jazz." While his term may fit the essence of the music on this disc, I would offer a different tag to describe it...cinematic Americana. Imagine a highly spirited, fleshed-out redux of Pat Metheny and Charlie Haden's Beyond the Missouri ...
