Is it too early to choose a “best-of" for 2020. I know it's only January, but drummer Jim Black has released an absolute killer of an album with pianist Elias Stemeseder and bassist Thomas Morgan that is an outstanding piece of work. Reckon came out on the Intakt label from Switzerland in January, so be on ...
Tower Jazz Composers Orch. & Daniel Bernardes
by Maurice Hogue
Improvisation is the core of clarinetist Ben Goldberg's Good Day For Cloud Fishing, and not just the music.

Ben Goldberg: Good Day For Cloud Fishing
by Mark Corroto
Poetry and jazz, jazz and poetry, which came first? Ben Goldberg poses that same question with Good Day For Cloud Fishing. His answer to the philosophical 'chicken or the egg' riddle is well, both. Sure, Homer wrote the Iliad centuries before King Oliver put cornet to lips, but damn if there wasn't some gutbucket rhyming to ...

Allison Miller's Boom Tic Boom: Glitter Wolf
by Jennifer DeMeritt
Some jazz musicians dare you to follow them to the rarefied realm of their imagination, where you might discover paradise, or you might get lost in a forest of abstraction. Allison Miller says, “Hey, let's take a ride!" then revs the engine and takes you on a grand tour of a carnival of sounds. A masterful ...

La firma congiunta apposta a tutti ...
