Andrew Rathbun: Shadow Forms
by Budd Kopman
For some reason, I never associated Andrew Rathbun with the Canadian scene, especially as embodied in the ever-expanding circle of David Braid and Mike Murley. There is something in his playing and compositions, just like Kenny Wheeler, that I cannot place--and which renders him distinct from the others. In any case, Shadow Forms ...
Andrew Rathbun: Shadow Forms
by Mark Corroto
After a series of challenging and complex recordings, saxophonist Andrew Rathbun gives us his “unplugged" album, minus the larger ensembles present on his earlier releases. The seven-piece Jade (FSNT, 2000) with vocalist Luciana Souza, the recording of Margaret Atwood's poetry on True Stories (Blue Moon, 2001), and even his quintet recording Sculptures (FSNT, 2002) with Kenny ...
Andrew Rathbun / George Colligan: Renderings: The Art of the Duo
by Budd Kopman
Renderings could be the perfect album for the jazz lover who thinks he doesn't like classical music, or vice versa. The recording is extremely beautiful for many reasons, in no small part because of the classical music chosen on which to improvise, as well as the leaders' own classically inspired compositions. From the ...

The title of the opening tune--Maurice Ravel's “Menuet Sur Le Nom Du Hayden," the French impressionist's homage to the great classical composer--clues you in as to what to expect. The sound is one of understated ...

Andrew Rathbun-Owen Howard Quintet: Days Before and After
by Paul Olson
Jazz is about more than soloing. The real meat of the music is in the collective interplay of the ensemble, the responses of one musician to what another has just done, all in real time: this is happening right now. You're not going to find a more fascinating demonstration of unique musical communication than Days Before ...

Andrew Rathbun/Owen Howard Quintet: Days Before and After
by Dan McClenaghan
How does a jazz musician go about adding some zest and shine, and maybe a touch of modernity, to the old tried and true saxophone-and-rhythm-section format? Sometimes they use a Fender Rhodes instead the accoustic piano, and sometimes they put an electric guitar in the keyboard's place; and sometimes they add a guitar to the piano, ...
