Barry Guy New Orchestra: Amphi - Radio Rondo
by John Sharpe
One of the most noteworthy releases of 2013 was the Barry Guy New Orchestra's Mad Dogs (Not Two), a five disc compendium which collected largely freeform meetings between various subsets of the 11-piece company during their 2010 residency in Krakow.

Agusti Fernandez - Barry Guy - Ramon Lopez: A Moment's Liberty
by Glenn Astarita
The powerhouse international trio's third effort radiates an uncanny, or perhaps uncommon framework combining beauty--due to Agusti Fernandez's lyrically rich and gorgeous statements--coupled with power and free-form elaborations.

Rocket Science: Rocket Science
by Mark Corroto
It isn't rocket science except when it is, indeed, Rocket Science. This renowned group of improvising superheroes delivers an audacious take on electric- acoustic chamber music.
