Canela & Vidal: Univers Miles

Read "Univers Miles" reviewed by Michael P. Gladstone


For this recording made in Barcelona, Spain in 2002, vocalist Carme Canela and pianist Lluis Vidal undertook the challenge of presenting songs from the Miles Davis Songbook. I've given up counting the various tributes over the course of the past twelve years, but Canela-Vidal should be credited with coming up with ten selections that avoid the ...

Gorka Benitez: The Free Session

Read "The Free Session" reviewed by AAJ Staff


The Free Session presents Basque saxophonist Gorka Benitez in a dizzying variety of stylistic approaches. These mostly short performances focus more on the leader as a composer than as an improviser. And while some of the music may indeed by characterized as free jazz, some of the pieces are through-composed, and some are urgently swinging post-bop. ...

Rob Wilkerson: Imaginary Landscape

Read "Imaginary Landscape" reviewed by AAJ Staff


There is a new style of jazz composition emerging, one which seeks to combine the melodic hooks and sonic ambiance of such pop artists as Radiohead and Björk with the harmonic and rhythmic imperatives of jazz. This approach can be heard in the work of such younger artists as Steve Cardenas, Eli Degibri, and Rob Wilkerson, ...

Magali Souriau Trio: Petite Promenade

Read "Petite Promenade" reviewed by Joshua Weiner

I’ve mentioned previously my irritation with the proliferation of “theme” records, as if one has to have a special angle to ...

Guaranteed Swahili: Three More Years

Read "Three More Years" reviewed by Mark F. Turner


With music that makes use of saxophone harmonies against a backdrop of free jazz, Guaranteed Swahili’s third release, Three More Years, intricately delivers expressive and tightly knit musical ideas. The piano-less quartet which now resides in New York was formed in 1995 in the vibrant Boston jazz scene with associations with other popular area musicians such ...

Fernando Huergo: Live at the Regattabar

Read "Live at the Regattabar" reviewed by Joshua Weiner


Though released on Fresh Sound's “World Jazz" imprint, this live album by Fernando Huergo's Jazz Argentino band captures a fantastic set of Latin-influenced modern jazz that does not deserve to be pigeonholed. Bassist and composer Huergo reunited the musicians that made 2002's Jazz Argentino studio album (save for new pianist Mika Pohjola) for a burning gig ...

Steve Lehman Quintet: Artificial Light

Read "Artificial Light" reviewed by Mark F. Turner


There have been some quiet rumblings about the young Steve Lehman. The New York alto saxophonist won Downbeat's award for “best alto saxophonist under 21" in 1997 and has studied under sax greats Jackie McLean and Anthony Braxton. His recent associations with his contemporaries include bassist Mark Dresser and pianist Vijay Iyer, with the trio Fieldwork. ...
