K. Norton - B. Celusak - A. Eulau: Iron Monkey Trio
by Glenn Astarita
Drummer/percussionist/composer Kevin Norton represents one of jazz's modern day pioneers. Whether performing and recording with saxophonist/composer and new music icon Anthony Braxton or engaging free jazz with serious compositional intentions, the artist has also assisted with the development of students seeking broader horizons. However, this trio-based endeavor suggests a mini collective of sorts, where everyone gets ...
Lou Grassi's PoBand + Joseph Jarman: The Joy of Being
by Glenn Astarita
Venerable modern jazz drummer/group leader, Lou Grassi’s improvising “PoBand” aggregation, join forces with famed “Art Ensemble of Chicago” saxophonist, Joseph Jarman on this effervescent release titled, Joy of Being. The drummer’s compelling polyrhythmic attack provides the often steamy undercurrents for a production that is chock full of round robin type exchanges, and the soloists’ verbose proclamations. ...
Avram Fefer: Lucille's Gemini Dream
by David Adler
Saxophonist Avram Fefer follows up the remarkable Calling All Spirits (Cadence) with the compelling, though quite different Lucille’s Gemini Dream. Opting for a quartet this time rather than a trio, Fefer keeps drummer Igal Foni on board and adds a second horn, trombonist Steve Swell. Wilber Morris replaces Eric Revis on bass. Like all CIMP recordings, ...
Norton / Celusak / Eulau: The Iron Monkey Trio
by Derek Taylor
Sometimes the breadth and depth of existing talent in creative improvised music is lost in the political and economic rhetoric that surrounds the art form. While it’s repeatedly reported to be a niche music plagued by public and commercial ambivalence there are literally legions of players who practice and purvey it. Why are so many musicians ...
Avram Fefer Quartet: Lucille
by Derek Taylor
Avram Fefer’s debut release, Calling All Spirits, on Cadence Jazz Records is that rare pedigree of disc- one that threw me for a loop upon first listen. Everything (from the playing and arranging to engineering) caught my ears and refused to relinquish them until the disc had run its course. Upon numerous subsequent listens the effect ...
Bobby Zankel Trio: Transcend & Triumph
by Derek Taylor
Judging by his predilection for philosophical and spiritual sounding song titles Philadelphia-based Bobby Zankel is man who puts deep thought into his music and outlook on life. His accompanying ‘Artist’s Notes’ for this release further corroborate the picture of the intellectual who is at once brooding and exuberant. For these reasons the nature of the actual ...
B.Lancaster/ O.Pope/ E.Crockett/ J.R. Mitchell: Philadelphia Spirit in New York
by Derek Taylor
Philadelphia certainly seems to receive only grudging affirmation in relation to other urban centers in the larger cosmology of creative improvised music. It’s a crime considering the fact that a solid scene has been thriving there for years. New York and Chicago may have the corner market, but bands like this jointly fronted quartet are surely ...
Smoker - Magnuson - Filiano - Grassi: Large Music 2
by Glenn Astarita
With the successor to the quartet’s 2000 release, Large Music 1, the musicians’ continue their pursuance of free-bop/swing amid sequences of investigative dialogue and a plethora of lofty peaks, bottomless pits and soul searching lines. However, the band also generates briskly stated melodies on the opener, “Gwendolyn the Cat”, as trumpeter Paul Smoker and saxophonist Bob ...
