Roy Hargrove and Mulgrew Miller: In Harmony

Read "In Harmony" reviewed by Troy Dostert

by Troy Dostert

While the good folks at Resonance have labored mightily to unearth hidden gems from some of the undisputed legends of jazz--Eric Dolphy, Bill Evans, Stan Getz, Wes Montgomery and Sonny Rollins are just a handful worthy of note--more recent figures have been largely absent from their roster. But this excellent live document bucks the trend, recorded ...

Roy Hargrove, Mulgrew Miller: In Harmony

Read "In Harmony" reviewed by Angelo Leonardi

by Angelo Leonardi

È sempre stato così nella storia del jazz. I documenti musicali più preziosi vengono dalle piccole etichette indipendenti piuttosto che dalle major dell'intrattenimento. La storia della Resonance Records è un chiaro esempio: in questi anni ha reso disponibili magistrali incisioni o concerti inediti di Bill Evans, Eric Dolphy, Sonny Rollins, Stan Getz, Wes Montgomery e molti ...

Simon Moullier Trio: Countdown

Read "Countdown" reviewed by Geno Thackara

by Geno Thackara

Simon Moullier declares that one of his goals with his second recording is “to make the vibraphone disappear." To this end, he eschews the colorful guest list of his debut Spirit Song (Outside In, 2020) and puts his instrument at the head of an acoustic trio where it gets to fill out most of the melodic ...

The Modern Jazz Quartet: From Residency To Legacy

Read "The Modern Jazz Quartet: From Residency To Legacy" reviewed by Kyle Simpler

by Kyle Simpler

There are plenty of fictional stories about utopian societies where life is good and everybody gets along. Of course, the word utopia literally means “no place," suggesting that an actual utopia is nothing more than an illusion, but that hasn't stopped people from trying. Although there are many utopian societies that didn't work, there are a ...

by Chris M. Slawecki

Lost Within You is a masterpiece of smoldering passion and beauty ignited by the exquisite trumpet and flugelhorn melodies of Franco Ambrosetti. Ambrosetti assembled an enviable ensemble: bassist Scott Colley and drummer Jack DeJohnette in the rhythm section, plus guitarist John Scofield, and Renee Rosnes and Uri Caine switching turns as pianist. But the ...

Concert: McCoy Tyner in 2002

Two musicians who arguably had the biggest impact on the jazz piano in the 1960s were Bill Evans and McCoy Tyner. They not only came from different backgrounds and experiences but also from different directions. Where Evans was lyrical, delicate and poetic, Tyner was percussive and stormy, using modal scales and chords to whip up drama ...
