Live!Singapore: June 8-11, 2010

Read "Live!Singapore: June 8-11, 2010" reviewed by Ian Patterson


Rarely do the worlds of jazz, classical music, world music and musical theatre come together in one place to hobnob and strut their stuff, but that was exactly what happened at Live!Singapore, an ambitious event organized by Koelnmesse and IMG Artists. Festival directors, producers, agents, managers, executives and artists of these four disciplines came from more ...

Wolfgang Muthspiel / Mick Goodrick: Live at the Jazz Standard

Read "Live at the Jazz Standard" reviewed by Jack Huntley


The worry, when two distinctive musicians play in a duo setting, is that one will display a heavy-handedness that brings down the combined feel. The urge to fill in the openness is ever-tempting. Luckily, both Wolfgang Muthspiel and Mick Goodrick are not only talented guitarists, but well-schooled in the art of supporting others musically, while maintaining ...

Eric Boeren 4tet: Song For Tracy The Turtle

Read "Song For Tracy The Turtle" reviewed by Mark Corroto


When Eric Boeren's 4tet isn't playing the music of Ornette Coleman, they are playing the music of Ornette Coleman. That is to say, with a Dutch swing. The leader and cornetist began playing covers in the early 1990s, releasing several quartet recordings of Coleman's music with Cross Breeding (BVHaast, 1997), Joy Of A Toy ...

Steve Cardenas: West of Middle

Read "West of Middle" reviewed by Sean Patrick Fitzell


Guitarist Steve Cardenas sports an unassuming style, devoid of histrionics. He favors clean tones, solid rhythms and cagey harmonies for a subtle, supportive approach.

Pianos in the Foreground: Six Modern Masters

Read "Pianos in the Foreground: Six Modern Masters" reviewed by Eugene Holley, Jr.


Because of its huge range, the piano might be the most expressive and adaptable instrument in western music. And since jazz is a product of western culture, it's no surprise that jazz pianists have been the genre's foremost creators, interpreters and stylists.

Keith Jarrett / Charlie Haden: Jasmine

Read "Jasmine" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


In the world of jazz, it's often said that “live is better." The immediacy and spontaneity of a living, breathing, and hopefully rapt audience can lend electricity to a recording foray.
