Musician

Dave Liebman

Born:

David Liebman was born in Brooklyn, New York on September 4, 1946. He began classical piano lessons at the age of nine and saxophone by twelve. His “epiphany” was hearing John Coltrane perform live in New York City clubs such as Birdland, Village Vanguard and Half Note as a teenager. Throughout high school and college, Liebman pursued his jazz interest by studying with saxophone guru Joe Allard as well as jazz musicians Lennie Tristano and Charles Lloyd. Upon graduation from New York University (with a degree in American History), he began to seriously devote himself to the full time pursuit of being a jazz artist. In the early 1970s, Liebman took the leading organizational role as Founder and President of Free Life Communication, a cooperative of several dozen young cutting edge musicians intent on performing around New York in venues outside the traditional jazz club situation

Polish Jazz Titans Assemble in London

Polish Jazz Titans Assemble in London

Why put on the first-ever Polish Jazz Festival in London, and why now? After all, London is already well supplied with fine British-Polish jazzers like the guitarist Artie Zaitz and saxophonist Emma Rawicz. Not only that, but the West London venue Jazz Cafe Posk—based in the Polish cultural centre—has been running jazz gigs for years.

Catherine Russell, Sean Mason: My Ideal

Read "My Ideal" reviewed by Angelo Leonardi


Un album come questo può nascere solo dall'amore per i tesori nascosti del songbook statunitense. E l'amore vero, si sa, non fa calcoli. Sulla carta è ampiamente controcorrente (o se preferite demodé) e quindi fuori mercato per la sua scelta di escludere quasi completamente brani in grado di sollecitare la memoria del pubblico. L'unico ...

Aki Rissanen: Imaginary Mountains

Read "Imaginary Mountains" reviewed by Neil Duggan

Ornette Coleman's and Horace Silver's "Lonely Woman" — A Disambiguation

Read "Ornette Coleman's and Horace Silver's "Lonely Woman" — A Disambiguation" reviewed by Artur Moral


Reality is filled with confusion and misunderstandings; some are suggestive or creative, while others are disappointing or, worse, malicious. The jazz world is no stranger to the first type: specific compositions are often confused or misidentified as if they were the same. Usually, this happens because of similar melodies or titles that are sometimes identical. This ...

Dave Liebman / Billy Hart / Adam Rudolph: Beingness

Read "Beingness" reviewed by Mike Jurkovic


There is something very other-worldly about Beingness. It runs on some taut meta-rhythms, courtesy of NEA Jazz Master, drummer Billy Hart, who hangs loose and fearless with award-winning, world music percussionist/composer Adam Rudolph. It sounds like free-falling. But not in a monochromatic death plunge. No, this is more a sure glide, like a leaf flirting across ...

Read "Tea For Three" reviewed by Artur Moral


In the concise liner notes for this release, Ari Hoenig states that this is the first time he has kept the same lineup for two consecutive recordings. No shock there: From the album's opening bars, it is clear we are not just dealing with another trio, but with the convergence of three exceptional musical personalities whose ...
