Daniel Sadownick: There Will Be a Day

Read "There Will Be a Day" reviewed by Elliott Simon

by Elliott Simon

Granted this is an oversimplification, but modern Latin jazz was created when percussionist Chano Pozo and trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie got together in NYC in the late '40s. While percussionist Daniel Sadownick's sense of history is acute on this debut--witness his use of an excerpt from Pozo's “Rumba En Swing" on the catchy solo percussion opener “Dedication"--he ...

Miles Okazaki: Generations

Read "Generations" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose

by Raul d'Gama Rose

Myriad ideas collide and interact on Miles Okazaki's follow-up to Mirror: his latest offering, Generations. These ideas span not only musical forms and concepts but also cultures--from Indian to European and American. The music also leaps across various artistic disciplines--philosophical, mathematical and visual--to render one central ostensible idea: that all sound is an experience shaped by ...

Read "Auand: A Matter of Trust" reviewed by Jakob Baekgaard

Barney McAll: Flashbacks

Read "Flashbacks" reviewed by Mark F. Turner

by Mark F. Turner

Since moving from Australia to NYC in 1997, pianist/composer Barney McAll has created an impressive resume that includes work with Gary Bartz, Billy Harper, Maceo Parker, Josh Roseman, and David Binney. But it may be his projects outside of jazz, in particular with independent film scoring-- Motherland Afghanistan (Aubin Pictures/PBS Independent Lens) and Sacco and Vanzetti ...

Justin Vasquez: Triptych

Read "Triptych" reviewed by Phil DiPietro

by Phil DiPietro

Young saxophonist Justin Vasquez acquits himself assertively on this 2009 debut, adapting the model of the tough Texas tenors to his own assiduous Austin alto. But that convenient alliterative to Vasquez's lone star origins belies his true lineage in the modern, slashing altoist mold carved out by the likes of David Binney,Greg Osby, Steve Coleman and ...
