Enoch Lee: Finish Line

Read "Finish Line" reviewed by Mark F. Turner

by Mark F. Turner

It is one thing for an aspiring musician to debut his album with talented veterans but quite another for him to create such an accomplished work as found in New York pianist/composer Enoch Lee's Finish Line. It breathes originality and purpose not only for the contributions from stalwarts that include saxophonist David Binney and bassist Drew ...

David Virelles: Mboko

Read "Mboko" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

For a relatively young musician nearing his 31st birthday in 2014, pianist David Virelles has managed to both garner a strong reputation and emerge with a singular voice in a relatively short period of time. While his early experiences in North America were within the confines of what might be expected from a Cuban expat, playing ...

Mark Turner Quartet: Lathe of Heaven

Read "Lathe of Heaven" reviewed by Karl Ackermann

by Karl Ackermann

Saxophonist Mark Turner favors quality over quantity. Lathe of Heaven--his first outing as a leader since 2001--is his first on the ECM label. Turner has hardly been absent from the music scene as the intervening years have seen him as a sideman for guitarist Kurt Rosenwinkel and saxophonist David Binney among many others. He's gathered strong ...

Save the Date - Agosto 2014

Read "Save the Date - Agosto 2014" reviewed by Luca Canini

by Luca Canini

L'agosto balneare dei festival italiani passa dalle isole e dalle spiagge. Mentre all'estero impazza il meglio del meglio (Lisbona, Saalfelden, Willisau, Mulhouse), nel Bel Paese tocca inseguire le orde di vacanzieri per intercettare i pochi eventi degni di segnalazione. Quelli che vanno a genio a noi di Save the Date, che nella lista dei consigli infiliamo ...

Rafael Rosa: Portrait

Read "Rafael Rosa: Portrait" reviewed by Ian Patterson

by Ian Patterson

In jazz terms Puerto Rico has certainly punched above its weight, producing Juan Tizol--a mainstay of Duke Ellington's bands in the 1930s and 1940s, Eddie Gomez and Manolo Badrena--who came to prominence in the 1960s/1970s through their respective associations with pianist Bill Evans and Weather Report--and latterly David Sanchez. Lesser known--though perhaps that's soon to change--is ...

Tom Chang: Tongue and Groove

Read "Tongue and Groove" reviewed by Dave Wayne

by Dave Wayne

Look at the lineup on Tom Chang's Tongue & Groove! There is literally no way that this album could be anything less than great. Listening, repeatedly, to Tongue & Groove has, in fact, borne this out. Chang utilizes the increasingly popular two-reeds / bass / drums configuration to frame brief, but consistently spectacular, improvisations in the ...
