Steven Bernstein: ResoNation Trio/Ultra Resonance

Read "ResoNation Trio/Ultra Resonance" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


Steven Bernstein has never been a musician content to remain in one room for long. The co-founder of Sexmob and architect of the Millennial Territory Orchestra has spent three decades proving that the trumpet is capable of almost anything, including, it seems, taking a vacation from the slide. ResoNation Trio marks a rare occasion where Bernstein ...

Sara Serpa & Matt Mitchell: End of Something

Read "End of Something" reviewed by Katchie Cartwright


Recorded in 2023, Sara Serpa and Matt Mitchell's End of Something launched in 2025, splashing down late in the year, landing softly on select best-of-year lists. It had been a slow process, Serpa reported. There was a feeling “that it was OK to wait and take time, to come back to it a few months later ...

Chuck Bergeron: Bass & Face

Read "Bass & Face" reviewed by Pierre Giroux

Bassist Chuck Bergeron's Bass and Face feels exactly like that. As one of Florida's long-admired and versatile players, Bergeron proves himself to be ...

Kenny Barron: So Many Lovely Things: Live in Brecon

Read "So Many Lovely Things: Live in Brecon" reviewed by Jack Kenny


Kenny Barron had the responsibility of playing piano on People Time (Universal Records, 1991) with Stan Getz--a poignant 7 CD box set recorded just three months before the saxophonist's death. Throughout those sessions, Barron displayed an extraordinary sensitivity. Now, as then, his piano phrasing is marked by incredible restraint and weightless grace. That same ...

Satoko Fujii: Satoko Fujii's Bunker Ulmenwall Orchestra

Read "Satoko Fujii's Bunker Ulmenwall Orchestra" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


In an always courageous three-decade career, pianist Satoko Fujii's recorded output has never wavered. She excels at solo piano, duo outings--mostly with her life partner, trumpeter Natsuki Tamura--quartets, quintets, and lastly, big band/orchestral recordings. The one exception to the unwavering description is her big-band output. Entity (Libra Records) came out in 2019. Then a seven-year orchestral ...

Kenny Barron: So Many Lovely Things: Live in Brecon

Read "So Many Lovely Things: Live in Brecon" reviewed by Pierre Giroux


Kenny Barron has always had the rare ability to make sophistication feel conversational. Even at his most technically dazzling, there is an intimacy in the way he shapes a phrase. That quality permeates So Many Lovely Things: Live At Brecon, a previously unissued 1995 concert recording from Wales featuring Barron with bassist Ray Drummond and drummer ...

Kenny Barron: So Many Lovely Things: Live in Brecon

Read "So Many Lovely Things: Live in Brecon" reviewed by Mike Jurkovic


Some guys have all the luck, and Zev Feldman is a lucky guy. Imagine criss-crossing the world on a rogue yet holy mission to bring the music all back home, and listening to, for the first time, works of art as snazzy or as regal as “Up Jumped Spring," the second of six tracks on CD1 ...

Kenny Barron: So Many Lovely Things: Live in Brecon

Read "So Many Lovely Things: Live in Brecon" reviewed by Andrew Schinder


By the mid-1990's, piano icon and NEA Jazz Master Kenny Barron had completed his transition from being a dependable, workhorse pianist-for-hire that elevated any group that had the good sense to engage him, to one of the most revered musicians in the business, and a living bridge between hard bop tradition and 21st century jazz modernity. ...

Satoko Fujii-Myra Melford: Katarahi

Read "Katarahi" reviewed by Doug Collette


The connection(s) between pianist-composers Satoko Fujii and Myra Melford transcend the usual truisms. Not kindred spirits in creativity or even mirror images in technique, the pair are more like twin sisters of different artistic mothers, distinctly their own individuals in style yet complementary as such in almost ineffable ways. Hence this album title, a Japanese term ...
