Petrus Kapell: A Call For Silence
by Jakob Baekgaard
Whatever the reason may be, the influence of country music is rarely heard among modern jazz guitarists. Bill Frisell and Pat Metheny are among the relatively few that have explored the legacy of bluegrass and country and transformed it into a singular musical expression. Keeping this is in mind, it is all the more surprising to ...
Paul Motian / Chris Potter / Jason Moran: Lost In A Dream
by David McLean
A drummer whose inventive approach to percussion has produced one of the most recognizable and in demand sounds in the pantheon of jazz, Paul Motian's revolutionary playing has seen him approach the kit not as a rhythmic backbone, but as a tool for subtlety and soundscape creation.

His recorded output is largely limited to occasional releases on Einstein ...
Paul Motian / Chris Potter / Jason Moran: Lost In A Dream

Ben Goldberg's Bag: Tin Hat & Go Home
by Dan Bilawsky
Ben Goldberg's music has never followed a set course or formula and the forward-thinking clarinetist always sticks to his guns when making artistic decisions.
