Jane Ira Bloom: Wingwalker

by Dan Bilawsky
The soprano saxophone often gets a raw deal. Many people see it as a relic from the early ages of jazz, a smooth jazz delivery method or a secondary axe that's only to be used when their alto saxophone, tenor saxophone or clarinet needs a break. While these attitudes are prevalent throughout a large portion of ...

by Martin Longley
The New York Composers OrchestraUniversity Of The StreetsOctober 23, 2010 Even for local residents, an appearance by the New York Composers Orchestra has become a rarity.

Stephan Crump: Reclamation

by Kurt Gottschalk
The 2006 debut of Stephan Crump's Rosetta (Papillon Sounds) was unusual in a number of ways, not least that it didn't seem to be trying to be unusual. The trio of upright bass, acoustic guitar and electric guitar played tightly woven, structured music, even without a drummer, and managed to find new ground in the shrinking ...
Mike Reed: The Drum Thing

by Gordon Marshall
There is not a name yet for what Mike Reed does on drums. Elvin Jones created polyrhythmics; Rashied Ali, multi-directionalism. Reed is delivering something related but distinct.

Before this happened, ...
Bobby Previte: Pan Atlantic

by Andrey Henkin

Bobby Previte: Pan Atlantic

by AAJ Italy Staff
Il gruppo Pan Atlantic costituisce un'interessante raccolta di musicisti, radunatisi attorno all'innegabile talento compositivo di Bobby Previte. Per quanto, infatti, le capacità esecutive di questo apprezzato batterista siano fuori discussione sia per efficacia espressiva che per sostanza tecnica, il suo approccio come compositore è di gran lunga fuori dell'ordinario. Se è evidente -tratto peraltro oggi condiviso ...
