Jim Hall & Joey Baron: Conversations
by Dan Bilawsky
The art of the duo is nothing new to guitar legend Jim Hall. His one-on-one encounters with bassist Ron Carter have been wowing jazz fans for decades. More recent mano a mano musical encounters with equally sublime artists, like pianist Geoffrey Keezer, and guitarist Bill Frisell, have produced works that challenge but, ultimately, remain largely listenable. ...

Variations on a Theme: Perspectives on Fan Relationships
by Brian Camelio
Something I've learned since starting ArtistShare is that the new “music business" is not so much a business but a platform for creating bonds between the artist and the fan. From that bond, fans will show their appreciation for the music in various ways which may include a purchase of some kind but also may not. ...
Maria Schneider at Birdland
by Nick Catalano
The jazz tradition of third stream music initiated by Gil Evans (with Miles Davis) nearly 50 years ago has been dutifully preserved by Maria Schneider since she founded her orchestra in 1992. The tradition seeks to combine the modern harmonies created by 20th century classical composers with the rhythmical, improvisational structures of jazz. The style was ...

Dollison and Marsh: Vertical Voices: The Music of Maria Schneider
by Larry Taylor
Maria Schneider's orchestral music has been described as evocative, majestic, magical, heart-stoppingly gorgeous and beyond categorization. Therefore, it was with trepidation that vocalists Julia Dollison and Kerry Marsh approached Schneider with the concept of using their voices, with the aid of multi-tracking studio techniques, to create the sound of her orchestra. They would wordlessly sing the ...
Torben Waldorff: American Rock Beauty
by AAJ Italy Staff
Otto temi autografi compongono il nuovo lavoro del chitarrista danese Torben Waldorff, dal titolo American Rock Beauty. Composizioni suonate con molta cura del dettaglio timbrico, che variano da andamenti limpidi e istintivi a passaggi vicini alla riflessione. Nell'economia della band gioca un ruolo fondamentale Jon Cowherd, impegnato al pianoforte, all'organo e al Fender Rhodes nei momenti ...
Torben Waldorff: American Rock Beauty
by Raul d'Gama Rose
Danish composer/guitarist Torben Waldorff has crafted a plainly titled but memorable album in American Rock Beauty. Waldorff is an articulate and lyrical musician, which counts for a lot on an instrument that is prone to be used with effects that mask its organic beauty. American Rock Beauty is a sophisticated blend of American and European streams ...
