Conrad Herwig/Brian Lynch: Que Viva Coltrane

by Terrell Kent Holmes
The world will never pay enough homage to the music of John Coltrane. Having his music translated into the Latin idiom isn't a huge stretch, considering that many of his tunes had strong Afro-Cuban roots. Placing Trane en clave was a challenge that trombonist Conrad Herwig and trumpeter Brian Lynch happily accepted when they ...
Joe Magnarelli/John Swana: New York-Philly Junction

by Russ Musto
This encore date by the two-trumpet team of Joe Magnarelli and John Swana is (like their first meeting) more collaborative in nature than competitive, and the results are similarly satisfying. Beginning with the title track, a co-written composition from the pair, the twosome show that they would rather work together than try to cut one another. ...
Alex Sipiagin: Equilibrium

by Robert MacBain
In sifting through a collection of critical commentary on Alex Sipiagin, one would be hard-pressed to find a review or a set of liner notes that neglects to mention the apparently pervasive Russian influence present in the trumpeter's writing and playing. The curious thing, though, is that one would be equally hard pressed to come up ...
Ralph Peterson: Fo'Tet Augmented

by John Kelman
While drummer Ralph Peterson has forged a consistently strong body of work, it is with his Fo'Tet that he has made his most cogent statement over the past fifteen years. And while more recent Fo'Tet incarnations, including first Steve Wilson and then Ralph Bowen on soprano saxophone, have been successful at maintaining the delicate yet powerful ...
David Kikoski: Details

by AAJ Staff
David Kikoski has earned his chops backing everyone from legends like Roy Haynes (two decades and counting) to young gun David Sanchez. Though he can commandeer a set when he wants (an astoundingly fractured, nearly chaotic barrelhouse blues piano solo is all that remains in memory of the last Pat Martino gig I caught), by nature ...
Jim Rotondi: New Vistas

by C. Andrew Hovan
Aptly titled to be sure, Jim Rotondi's New Vistas offers somewhat of a new direction for this hard bop trumpeter, who finds himself mixing it up with a cast of new friends. Although he had included a few cuts with Larry Goldings on B3 for his debut Criss Cross release, this session also marks the first ...
Wycliffe Gordon: Dig This!!

by Joe Klee
Wycliffe Gordon is a trombone player who knows his instrument from the primordial playing of Kid Ory and Honore Dutrey through giants like Jack Teagarden and J.J. Johnson up to and including today's best like Steve Turre. This ability is nowhere better illustrated than on this new CD covering music as classic as Limehouse Blues" and ...
