Ricardo Herz Trio/Phisqa at BelloBar
by Ian Patterson
Ricardo Herz Trio/Phisqa BelloBar Dublin, Ireland May 21 2014 It was a happy case of serendipity. The square in front of BelloBar was buzzing with vocal chants, clapping, percussion and the twangy rhythmic drive of three berimbau, urging on the dancers in their strange ballet that was part mime, part cutting ...

On The Road With The Asian Jazz All-Stars Power Quartet
by Ian Patterson
Though it was only a 12-hour flight from Singapore to London, for Singaporean organist/pianist Jeremy Monteiro, Philippine tenor saxophonist Tots Tolentino, Hong Kong guitarist Eugene Pao and Thai drummer Chanutr Techatana-nan--who together make up the Asian Jazz All-Stars Power Quartet--the journey has, in some ways, been a much longer one; you could say it's a journey ...

Meg Okura and the Pan Asian Chamber Jazz Ensemble: Naima
by Raul d'Gama Rose
John Coltrane's original recording of “Naima" is extraordinarily beautiful, and it's possible that he never envisioned such a breathtaking version being played so many years after it had been composed. So hats off to the Japanese-born violinist and erhu player, Meg Okura, for conjuring up that version. As wave after wave of the song's melody unfolds ...
Dreyfus Records: Crossing Continents with Music
by Jakob Baekgaard
Music, at its best, has the ability to reach across boundaries of nationality, gender and age. If there's a message in music, it's about communication, and about getting to the essence of everything: the beating pulse of a human heart.
