John Fedchock NY Septet: Live at the Red Sea Jazz Festival
by AAJ Italy Staff
"Bel festival, sole, mare": è quello che avranno pensato i musicisti guidati dal trombonista John Fedchock, quando hanno appreso di essere stati invitati dal Red Sea Jazz Festival (ad Eilat, in Israele, una cittadina turistica sul Mar Rosso). Certo non potevano aspettarsi un caldo che, durante le prove di giorno, faceva sciogliere le suole delle scarpe. ...

Curtis Fuller: I Will Tell Her
by Woodrow Wilkins
The title song and two-disc set are dedicated to a true love, but the music is clearly for the audience. I Will Tell Her, by trombonist Curtis Fuller, achieves plenty. The title song was written for Fuller's wife of 30 years, Cathy, who died before getting a chance to hear the music. The artist ...
3ology: With Ron Miles
by Ken Waxman
This album is appropriately titled as, in many cases, the addition of another musician raises the level of an entire band's playing. So it is on this session, where Denver-based cornetist Ron Miles joins Colrado's 3ology combo. Evident from the one track on which Miles isn't featured, 3ology--brothers Doug and Tim Carmichael (alto sax and bass, ...
John Fedchock NY Sextet: Live at the Red Sea Jazz Festival
by Woodrow Wilkins
It was a performance that began at 1:00 AM in the heat of the desert, but if the sound is any indication, the John Fedchock NY Sextet was cool during its recording of Live at the Red Sea Jazz Festival. Fedchock is a composer, arranger and trombonist who earned a Grammy nomination in 2002 ...
Ken Peplowski: Noir Blue
by Martin Longley
In his liner notes, saxophonist/clarinetist Ken Peplowski reveals that after hitting fifty, he had no desire to make albums that are going through the motions of record company requirements.

John Fedchock NY Sextet: Live at the Red Sea Jazz Festival

by Edward Blanco
Pianist Michael Pagan is known as a prolific composer and arranger for small combos to big bands, and is currently Assistant Director of Jazz Studies at the University of Missouri in Kansas City.

Ken Peplowski: Noir Blue
by Raul d'Gama Rose
Ken Peplowski has much to say; not in the sense that he jabbers incessantly, as many men with horns (and embouchures for hire) sometimes do. However, in erudite and leaping ululations, and in warm, wafting glissandos he sings of the gaiety and sadness of life. This he does through clarinet or tenor saxophone, depending on the ...
