Convergence

Greg Gisbert - Trumpet Fiery, honest, and maniacally talented, Greg Gisbert hit the national jazz scene at an early age and seems to have been on the road ever since. He ventured forth from his childhood home in Denver to attend Berklee, but soon found himself wandering around a tour bus dodging insults from Buddy Rich. He eventually settled in New York, and over the years has been an integral player with the Woody Herman Orchestra, Toshiko Akiyoshi, Horace Silver, Maynard Ferguson, Bobby Shew, Maria Schneider, John Fedchok, and the Smithsonian, Carnegie Hall , and Vanguard Big Bands. In addition to also recording with most of these groups, Greg also has three CD’s out as a leader on the Criss Cross label, with such notable sidemen as Billy Drummond, Chris Potter, and Gregory Hutchinson. Eric Gunnison - Piano Known as “the voice of reason” in Convergence, Eric plays with amazing passion and energy, and he is an accomplished writer and arranger

Convergence: Reckless Meter

Read "Reckless Meter" reviewed by Jack Bowers

by Jack Bowers

Even though the contours and boundaries of jazz have been substantially altered and recast through the years, it is good to know that some aspects of America's classical music remain basically unchanged, especially the propensity to design and use melodic, harmonic and rhythmic concepts as a springboard for group interaction and personal improvisation.

Max Trabucco: Convergence

Read "Convergence" reviewed by Neri Pollastri

by Neri Pollastri

L'idea guida di Convergence, ultimo disco del batterista Max Trabucco, è espressa già nel titolo: far convergere le linee dei quattro strumenti monofonici, sovrapponendole e sommandone le possibilità armoniche. E che questa sia l'idea si coglie tangibilmente nella musica, ascoltando quanto siano ridotti, e comunque sempre funzionali al suono d'assieme, gli assoli dei quattro musicisti, come ...

I dischi del 2025 secondo Neri Pollastri

Read "I dischi del 2025 secondo Neri Pollastri" reviewed by Neri Pollastri

by Neri Pollastri

Convergence: Reckless Meter

Read "Reckless Meter" reviewed by Pierre Giroux

by Pierre Giroux

Colorado has long nurtured a quietly serious jazz scene, and Reckless Meter makes a compelling case that Convergence ranks among its most seasoned examples. This is not a band formed for convenience or novelty; it is an ensemble built through years of shared bandstands, rehearsals, and the kind of musical debates that foster trust. Pianist Eric ...

New Music From Politzer, Davis, West, Genovese & More

Read "New Music From Politzer, Davis, West, Genovese & More" reviewed by Bob Osborne

by Bob Osborne

This set moves through solo sketches, trio interplay, and full ensemble fire, tracing acoustic and electric textures across studio, live, and archival formats. It opens with flowing piano, moves into exploratory trio improvisation, and shifts between guitar meditations, reworked soul and rock standards, and tightly arranged ensemble writing. Abstract textures and ambient passages emerge mid-set, followed ...
