Bruno Råberg Quartet with Phil Grenadier, Allan Chase and Austin McMahon: Hot Box
by Karl Ackermann
Bassist Bruno Råberg and trumpeter Phil Grenadier had previously offered a brilliant duo collection with the 2012 Plunge (Orbis Music) and here--under Råberg's leadership--expand to a quartet formation for the equally imaginative Hot Box. The collection features compositions both by the Swedish born Råberg and group improvised pieces. Unlike the Råberg/Grenadier duo outing, the leader's electronic ...
Julia Hülsmann Quartet w/ Theo Bleckmann: A Clear Midnight - Weill and America
by John Kelman
Given enough time, things in life often come around full circle. Julia Hülsmann's three recordings for Munich's ACT label were all vocal affairs, where the German pianist's core trio--with bassist Marc Muellbauer and drummer Heinrich Köbberling--were joined by singers ranging from Norway's Rebekka Bakken to Germany's Roger Cicero. Since moving to another Munich label, the more ...
Andy Milne & Dapp Theory: Forward In All Directions
by Dan Bilawsky
Can music be both sprawling and focused in nature? The aptly-titled Forward In All Directions says it can, and it says so in convincing fashion. Andy Milne, a distinguished M-Base alumnus who's worked with everybody from saxophonist Ravi Coltrane to harmonica heavy Gregoire Maret to singer-songwriter Bruce Cockburn, doesn't draw borders in his ...

Matt Pavolka: The Horns Band
by Vincenzo Roggero
A dispetto della sua ventennale presenza sulla scena musicale newyorchese, apprezzato e trasversale collaboratore di musicisti quali Lee Konitz, Paul Motian, Ben Monder, Tony Malaby, per citarne alcuni, Matt Pavolka è solamente al suo secondo album da leader.

8th Annual Red Hook Jazz Festival Takes Place June 14 & 21 In The Urban Meadow
“The Red Hook Jazz Festival exists contentedly on the margins, like its namesake neighborhood and much of the music on its bill... The mood in the audience was neighborly, with a higher ratio of small children to youngish adults than I’ve seen at any musical event not expressly pitched as a kids’ show.” —Nate Chinen, New ...
2014: The Year in Jazz
by Ken Franckling
The year 2014 turned out to be a year noteworthy for its numbers. Newport turned 60, Blue Note turned 75, International Jazz Day's third edition featured 900 events in more than 190 countries. The jazz world lost seven of its NEA Jazz Masters, and New Orleans trumpeter Lionel Ferbos died at 103. Sad but not unexpected, ...
Notable and Nearly Missed 2014
by C. Michael Bailey
As I have grown older, I have come to the startling and disheartening realization that I will not be able to read all the books there are, and, more importantly, listen to all the music there is (much less write about it). I otherwise appreciate a finite lifespan, but not when it comes to books and ...

Jerome Sabbagh: The Turn
by Luigi Sforza
Non di rado il processo di elaborazione creativa parte dalla riformulazione di materiale preesistente, il quale assemblato in forma nuova può dar vita ad opere che assumono connotati affatto originali. Ciò che il tenor sassofonista francese di stanza a New York dal 1995 Jerome Sabbagh ha fatto nel suo ultimo disco -The Turn-è stato potenziare ...
