The State of The Piano Trio 2010 (Pt.1): Helge Lien Trio and Trichotomy
by C. Michael Bailey
The piano trio is a durable and fertile format for musical expression. It is the jazz equivalent of classical chamber music--that is, music produced by a small number of instruments, small enough to be accommodated in close confines. While the piano trio can come in many flavors, the typical one is piano, bass and drums (aka ...

Andre Matos: Fantasies Realized
by William Carey
There is no doubt that André Matos has chops to burn. Placed firmly in the tradition of John Abercrombie and Pat Martino, with a bit of Sonny Sharrock at moments, a lot of Berklee (College of Music) influence is readily apparent, but with a bit of headiness that also reflects the guitarist's time at the New ...
Daniel Kelly, Gary Peacock & Marc Copland, Allison Miller: Solo, Duo, Trio
by J Hunter
It can be argued that a quartet offers jazz listeners maximum effect with minimal personnel.

David Leonhardt Trio: Bach to the Blues
by C. Michael Bailey
Pianist David Leonhardt takes a right turn directly into Jacques Loussier territory with the release of Bach to the Blues. Loussier has made his career arranging jazz interpretations of Bach, Handel, Mozart, and Beethoven.

Over the past several years, there has been a revival and reconsideration of the music of Thelonious Monk. No one embodies this trend better than Monkadelphia, a group of Philadelphia-based jazz musicians who play his music exclusively--a difficult challenge which they embrace with vitality, panache, and sophistication. With Chris Farr on saxophone, Tony Miceli on vibes, ...
