Setting aside the vivisection angle for a moment, there are countless approaches to the classic jazz piano trio.

Tony Malaby: Paloma Recio

Read "Paloma Recio" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto
April 28, 2009

To use a rock 'n' roll analogy, saxophonist Tony Malaby is the Mick Jagger to Joe Lovano's Paul McCartney. It's not that anyone has to choose sides, but if the classic Paul Motian band (featuring Lovano) was The Beatles, then Malaby's Paloma Recio quartet is the Rolling Stones. Without having to choose sides, Paloma ...

For pianist Angelica Sanchez, her presence muddles that distinction. On Life Between she preserves the order--not by chords, but by her compositions, arrangements and, maybe, presence. After releasing ...
