UDEiGWE: Four Lemmas

Read "Four Lemmas" reviewed by Andrew Hunter

by Andrew Hunter

Jazz is a beautifully broad church. Whoever you are, whatever you have to say, you are welcome to say it as long as you bring an open heart and an open mind.  So when a math professor chooses to express his thoughts on identity through “an eight track concept suite structured as four lemmas ...

Dylan Jones: Statue

Read "Statue" reviewed by Andrew Hunter

by Andrew Hunter

Like so many talented young musicians in London, Dylan Jones spent some time developing his skills with Tomorrow's Warriors, a talent development organization without which we might never have heard Courtney Pine, Steve Williamson, Yazz Ahmed, Nubya Garcia, Soweto Kinch...

Oiseau Murmure: Oiseau Murmure

Read "Oiseau Murmure" reviewed by Andrew Hunter

Fergus McCreadie: The Shieling

Read "The Shieling" reviewed by Andrew Hunter

by Andrew Hunter

Things tend to come in pairs. The animals went into the ark, all those years ago, two by two. Tonic water was created to control the symptoms of malaria but found its voice when mixed with gin to control the symptoms of reality. Some pairings work against the odds; until you have tried strawberries with black ...
