Tula's Jazz Club: A Seattle Tradition in the Making
by Paul Rauch
Life in the Pacific Northwest is hauntingly similar to jazz music itself, from that which is inward, deep in the recesses of our collective soul, to the outward expressionism as a ray of sunlight, an exaltation of joy, harmony expressed in the deep, deep blue of sentient life, and of our enlightened sky. High notes expressed ...

TD Ottawa Jazz Festival Ottawa, Canada June 22 -July 3, 2016 It's hard to believe, with seasons that move quickly from spring into summer, that it was time, once again, for the TD Ottawa Jazz Festival. Now in its 36th year, the festival has grown from a weekend event into a full-blown, ...
Cuong Vu Trio: Meets Pat Metheny
by Luca Muchetti
Vien quasi da sorridere. Il nuovo album sulla cui copertina spicca il nome di Pat Metheny è intitolato semplicemente Cuong Vu Trio meets Pat Metheny. E il motivo del mezzo sorriso che si stampa sul volto è duplice: non solo i cultori del chitarrista del Missouri sapranno bene che Cuong Vu è il trombettista che da ...
Cuong Vu Trio With Pat Metheny: Cuong Vu Trio Meets Pat Metheny
by Dan McClenaghan
One of the most distinctive jazz sounds to have appeared this millennium has been shaped by Cuong Vu. Beginning with his It's Mostly Residual (ArtistShare, 2005) through Vu-Tet (ArtistShare, 2007) and into Leaps of Faith, (Origin Records 2011), the modernistic and often plugged-in trumpeter has crafted an assault of sound: a thick, sludgy, glow-in-the-dark, pugnaciously percussive ...
Cuong Vu Trio Meets Pat Metheny
by Dave Wayne
A good chunk of the jazz-consuming public first became aware of Cuong Vu's virtuoso trumpet playing via his work with the Pat Metheny Group during the 2000s. For those of us already familiar with Vu's work, the move seemed a bit out-of-character, as the young trumpeter was a prominent player in the hyper-adventurous downtown NYC scene ...
Cuong Vu Trio With Pat Metheny: Cuong Vu Trio Meets Pat Metheny
by Mark Sullivan
When trumpeter/composer Cuong Vu became a member of the Pat Metheny Group--he contributed to Speaking Of Now (Warner Bros., 2002) and The Way Up (Nonesuch, 2005)--it came as a bit of a shock to anyone familiar with his work in the downtown New York City scene. While Pat Metheny has made music that fits in with ...

Pat Metheny The Unity Sessions Nonesuch Records 2016 What's in a name? First there was the Unity Band in 2012; after several years of collaborations, solo work and small ensembles, the ever-restless Pat Metheny decided it was time for a steady quartet of his own again. The following year it ...
Cuong Vu Trio With Pat Metheny: Cuong Vu Trio Meets Pat Metheny
by Dan Bilawsky
There's a bit of a role reversal going on with this one. Trumpeter Cuong Vu--a Pat Metheny devotee from the time he first heard the guitarist's Travels (ECM, 1983) as a teenager--eventually came to join the Pat Metheny Group, enhancing the sound of the band on a pair of Grammy-winning albums: Speaking Of Now (Warner Bros. ...
Mirko Signorile: Waiting For You
by Angelo Leonardi
Esponente di punta dell'area jazzistica pugliese e già partner di Gianluca Petrella, Roberto Ottaviano e Gaetano Partipilo, il pianista Mirko Signorile ha espresso in poco più di un decennio (dal sorprendente esordio per la Soul Note con In Full Life e i successivi riconoscimenti della critica) un ricco corpus di opere comprendente sei album a suo ...
