The Jason Lindner Big Band: Live At The Jazz Gallery
by Mark F. Turner
If you think that jazz composition for large ensembles is out of touch with the current music environment then listen to pianist/composer Jason Lindner's Live At The Jazz Gallery. Like contemporaries Maria Schneider with Sky Blue (ArtistShare, 2007) and Guillermo Klein's Una Nave (Sunnyside Records, 2005); Lindner breathes new life into the historically informed “big band ...
Avishai Cohen: After The Big Rain
by Jerry D'Souza
Trumpeter Avishai Cohen has had a varied musical career. He toured with the Young Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra and then went into a wider spectrum playing jazz, pop and rock. However, it was when he was at Smalls jazz club in New York, that he had the opportunity to interact and expand his musical horizons with Jason ...
Manuel Valera: Vientos
by Jim Santella
Pianist Manuel Valera merges a classical woodwind quintet with his traditional jazz quartet on a whirlwind of original adventure and swing. His chamber jazz ambience has been influenced by classical composers such as Debussy, Ravel, Stravinsky and Shostakovich but Valera has replaced the French horn from the classical idiom with a bass clarinet, giving a different ...
Waverly Seven: Yo Bobby!
by Brandt Reiter
Yo Bobby!, the debut recording of the downtown New York jazz septet Waverly Seven, is a two-disc tribute to Bobby Darin, its twenty-four instrumental tracks all recorded by the late singer sometime during his career. Fueled by some of the best young players in town, the record is essentially a joyous, high-powered swing date, no more ...
Joel Frahm: We Used to Dance
by Jim Santella
Working with pianist Kenny Barron, bassist Rufus Reid and drummer Victor Lewis on a straight-ahead jazz session would be a real treat for anyone. It turns out to be especially fruitful for tenor saxophonist Joel Frahm, who delivers this program of standards and originals with an artist's delicate touch. The proud owner of a rich, luxurious ...
Anat Cohen: Poetica
by Jack Bowers
This is a wonderfully recorded session, overflowing with tender, charming melodies, and everyone involved is a world-class musician. On the other hand, it's not exactly jazz: more like chamber music, bordering at times on classical and not too many steps removed from the venerable klezmer tradition. There is improvisation, but it flows so easily from the ...
Anat Cohen & The Anzic Orchestra: Noir
by Jack Bowers
Frankly, I had no idea what to expect from Anat Cohen's first big band album. But if I'd had any expectations, they'd have easily been surpassed by the time the opening track reached its midway point. Cohen plays clarinet on that selection, and it's easy to understand why music critics have named her one of Down ...

Anat Cohen: Place & Time
by Donald Elfman
How thoroughly refreshing it is to hear a young musician who really does have a sense of place and time, in the best possible ways! Saxophonist Anat Cohen imbues her tunes and her playing with an understanding of how to use space and rhythm and, having played in many countries, with a feeling for other cultures ...
