Enzo Favata Tentetto: The New Village
by Mark Corroto
The ancient and the modern is the theme of composer/saxophonist Enzo Favata's The New Village. Together with his Tentetto, he fuses traditional vocals from Sardinia, his home, with the American jazz lexicon. Unlike the cultural larceny of Paul Simon's Graceland (Warner, 1986), Favata's music coalesces into an ingenuous expression of music. The saxophonist has ...

by Troy Collins
John Zorn's Masada project has blossomed over the past decade and a half, demonstrating durability in the face of multiple interpretations.

However, most of the variations on these Hassidic-inspired tunes have ...

Dave Douglas' combo, Brass Ecstasy, follows the spirit-trail of Lester Bowie's Brass Fantasy, at once looking way back to the old New Orleans street traditions then picking up moves from the Rebirth and Dirty Dozen Brass Bands. Douglas is joined by Luis Bonilla (trombone), Vincent Chancey (French horn) and Marcus Rojas (tuba) with Nasheet Waits manning ...
