Leonardo Cioglia: Contos

Read "Contos" reviewed by Chris M. Slawecki

by Chris M. Slawecki

The following words probably do Brazilian bassist, composer and bandleader Leonardo E. M. Cioglia no favors, because it lays the weighty burden of expectation upon him and his group of young musicians. But no other words say precisely this: Contos showcases an acoustic jazz ensemble that so deftly features each individual voice, while naturally integrating each ...

Marian Petrescu Quartet at the Jazz Standard (NYC) on June 16th

Some may call it hubris to introduce Marian Petrescu with an album in which he is asked to step into the shoes of a uniquely accomplished and intimidating virtuoso.

Burgstaller Martignon 4: Mozart's Blues Dreams & Other Crossover Fantasies

Read "Mozart's Blues Dreams & Other Crossover Fantasies" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan
