David Liebman and Fusion Both Honored by Jazz Prize
WHEN the National Endowment for the Arts gives the 2011 N.E.A. Jazz Masters Award to the saxophonist David Liebman in January, it will represent more to him than a personal achievement. It will also mark the establishment's de facto validation of the fusion aesthetic, he said, because few, if any, of the 118 other award recipients ...

by Bruce Lindsay

The Bickel/Marks Group: The Bickel/Marks Group with Dave Liebman
by Jerry D'Souza
Doug Bickel and Dennis Marks have been playing together since 1987 when they were at the University of Miami.

Both went on to become academics, while keeping music within sight with their ...
Marc Copland Trio: Haunted Heart
by John Kelman
Originally released in 2001, Marc Copland's Haunted Heart deserves re-examination and re-evaluation, as hatOLOGY brings one of the perennially undervalued pianist's most sublime trio recordings back into print. With the original subtitle--And Other Ballads--removed, those familiar with Copland's intimate approach will already know what to expect, especially with a trio that, in the early part of ...
Contact: Dave Liebman / John Abercrombie / Marc Copland / Drew Gress / Billy Hart: Five On One
by Raul d'Gama Rose
If, indeed, albums are living breathing beings--and this might well be so--then the beating heart of Five on One, by the marvelous Contact ensemble, is “Lost Horizon," a mighty, burbling piece of music that appears to come from a cornucopia of modern sound. It is mysterious, magical and hypnotic, and brings waves of sound that lap ...

Bobby Avey: A New Face
by Bruce Lindsay
A New Face is a somewhat misleading title for this album. True, this is the debut recording as leader by the 25-year-old Bobby Avey but he's been on the jazz scene for some time. Most notably, he joined star saxophonist Dave Liebman on Vienna Dialogues (ZOHO, 2006) while he was still a student and his regular ...

The saxophonist, educator and bandleader is part of a rich steel town jazz lineage which includes his father, Don Aliquo Sr., a performing artist and teacher in his own right.
