Bruce Torff: Down the Line

Chicago area native, Bruce Torff, leads his second outing on Summit Records, following up on Look Again (2013). Torff is, first and foremost, an academician with three Master Degrees and a PhD from Harvard.

I 10 CD nel CD-Player di... Oscar Del Barba
by Vincenzo Roggero
01. Brad Mehldau-Live in Marciac (Nonesuch -2011). Un doppio con DVD. Un'ennesima dimostrazione della grandezza di questo che potrei considerare senza dubbio come uno dei più grandi pianisti di tutti i tempi. 02. Johan Sebastian Bach -Passione secondo Matteo. Direttore Sir George Solti (Decca -1990). Capolavoro della musica del grande Maestro. ...
I 10 CD nel CD-Player di... Marta Sanchez
by Vincenzo Roggero
01. Jaki Byard --The Last from Lennie's (Prestige--2003). Ho ascoltato spesso Jaki Byard durante l'ultimo anno. Ora sto indirizzando la mia attenzione su questo disco con Joe Farrell. La versione di “After You've Gone," suonata in trio è sorprendente. Subito dopo l'esposizione della melodia piano, basso e batteria eseguono dei soli. Lo stride di Jaki ...
Omer Klein: Fearless Friday
by Ian Patterson
From Israel to Boston and then to New York, Omer Klein has followed the path of so many of his compatriots--up to a point. His debut as outright leader, Introducing Omer Klein (Smalls Records, 2008), announced a unique voice, one that blended folkloric, classical and contemporary colors quite seamlessly. Three further recordings cemented Klein's reputation as ...
Nenad Georgievski's Best of 2015
by Nenad Georgievski
2015 was not an easy year. I became a dad for the third time while I was working on a Film festival for music documentaries. The festival itself was an uphill battle, but I managed to get it organized with astounding success. In the meantime I was writing constantly or was listening to music, as if ...
Pawel Kaczmarczyk Audiofeeling Trio: Something Personal
by Ian Patterson
For fans of Pawel Kaczmarczyk it's been a lengthy wait for a follow-up to Complexity in Simplicity (ACT Music, 2009), his sole recording for Siggi Loch's label. Six years seems like too long a gap for such a prodigiously talented performer and composer but this extended stewing period sees the Krakow pianist return in absolutely splendid ...
Howard Riley: Reinventing the Jazz Piano Trio
by Duncan Heining
Even allowing for journalistic hyperbole, the phrase “reinventing the jazz piano trio" was a doozy. It all seemed a bit “Emperor's new clothes" or, as my late mother used to put it, “new coat and no knickers." For a time in the noughties, British critics variously applied the phrase to Esbjorn Svensson, Brad Mehldau, The Necks, ...

Doug Collette's Best of 2015
by Doug Collette
It didn't take much thought to compose this list, perhaps because the inclusions run the gamut from finely-produced studio sessions to equally inspired live recordings (and much in between). And more so than in recent years, the playability of all these albums will surely equal their durability as time marches on, which is not necessarily a ...

by Ian Patterson
Jazztopad 2015: World Premieres National Forum Of Music Wroclaw, Poland November 27-29, 2015 November in Wroclaw means jazz. Ten days no less.
