Alan Broadbent And NDR Bigband: America The Beautiful
by Dan Bilawsky
In the brief liner essay that accompanies America The Beautiful, pianist Alan Broadbent notes that he has “an aversion to being clever," but the rest of the music world never received that memo. Everybody from Irene Kral to Diana Krall and Charlie Haden to Charlie Rich has benefited from his brilliance with a pen and/or a ...

I 10 CD nel CD-Player di... Jesper Bodilsen
by Vincenzo Roggero
01. Antonio Zambrini--Due colori (Abeat--2003). Ho conosciuto il pianista Antonio Zambrini durante la partecipazione al progetto con la cantante Silwia Bialas. Ho apprezzato da subito il suo modo di suonare che mi ricorda un poco quello del mio amico pianista svedese Lars Jansson. Zambrini mi ha dato questo album e lo sto ascoltando continuamente ...
Lena Bloch: Feathery
by Dan McClenaghan
Russian-born tenor saxophonist Lena Bloch carries a cool burning torch for the music of saxophonist Warne Marsh and the Lennie Tristano school of jazz. For Feathery, her debut CD as a leader, Bloch has assembled a quartet that can rival the loose and interactive and spontaneous ensembles of alto saxophonist Lee Konitz--a Tristano acolyte and Bloch's ...
Hutchinson Andrew Trio: Prairie Modern
by John Kelman
If Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver are the only places in Canada considered, in any way, as hotbeds for jazz, the prairie provinces are, with the exception of the annual Banff International Workshop in Jazz and Creative Music, pretty close to the bottom of the list of other Canadian cities that have small but aspiring jazz scenes. ...
Keith Jarrett: Arbour Zena
by John Kelman
Given his overall focus on just two projects over the past three decades--with the exception of relatively rare diversions into the classical world or recordings like Jasmine (2010), an intimate duo date with bassist Charlie Haden--it's easy to forget that there was a time when pianist Keith Jarrett was not just one of the most innovative ...
Keith Jarrett / Dennis Russell Davies: Ritual
by John Kelman
In pianist Keith Jarrett's vast ECM catalogue, albums on which he does not play aren't exactly common, but nor are they completely uncommon; his 1974 double-disc set In the Light features a handful of tracks on which he performs, but its primary focus is on Jarrett the composer. Ditto Luminessence (1975), a trilogy of compositions for ...
Birchall & Woolhouse: The Scenery of Life Unfolding
by Dan McClenaghan
Piano trio albums--piano, bass and drums--may be the more common means of artistic expression in jazz, but piano/bass duet sets come long fairly often, too. Bassist Charlie Haden is a master of the approach, proof of which can be found on his teamings with pianists Keith Jarrett and Hank Jones on, respectively, Jasmine (ECM Records, 2011) ...
