Gerard D'Angelo: Who's Kidding Who?
by DanMichael Reyes
The old adage about those who can do and those who can't teach doesn't fit nicely into any music tradition. If this fallacy were to hold true, then it would be best for music history books to write off Joseph Haydn for taking on pupils--Beethoven being one of the more famous ones. That old idiom penned ...

Pat Metheny Unity Group Paramount Theater Denver, CO March 7, 2014 The Group is back. Sort of.

STLJN Saturday Video Showcase: Metheny Expands Unity Group for New Album and Tour

Daniel Szabo: A Song From There
by Dan Bilawsky
Some musicians are late bloomers. Others start while most people their age are occupied with finger painting and play-doh; Daniel Szabo belongs to the latter category. The Hungarian-born, Los Angeles-based pianist was playing and composing at the age of four, but that's not so surprising since he grew up in a house with two musician- parents. ...
Pat Metheny Unity Group: Kin (←→)
by John Kelman
Strangely enough, the release of Kin () may be the one that most polarizes longtime fans of guitarist Pat Metheny. There are those who feel that, beginning with 2005's last recording with his then-longstanding Pat Metheny Group, that he'd become too complex, too chops-heavy and too distanced from the accessible music of recordings like Travels (ECM, ...
John Hollenbeck: profilo di artista
by Angelo Leonardi
Lo scorso mese di agosto il 61° critics poll di Down Beat ha votato John Hollenbeck al primo posto tra gli arrangiatori emergenti, riproponendo valutazioni già espresse in passato (Rising Star Arranger nel 2012 e Rising Star Big Band nel 2011). È il doveroso riconoscimento a uno degli artisti più originali del jazz statunitense ma non ...
