Shifa شفاء - Rachel Musson, Pat Thomas, Mark Sanders: Ecliptic

Read "Ecliptic" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Some books are divided into chapters--numbered, titled, and carefully structured. The musical equivalent is the tracklist: segmented, labeled pieces presented in order. But Ecliptic by the trio Shifa (شفاء, Arabic for “healing") rejects that format entirely. This 46-minute set of improvised music by saxophonist Rachel Musson, pianist Pat Thomas and drummer Mark Sanders unfolds without titles, ...

Larry Stabbins & Mark Sanders: Cup & Ring

Read "Cup & Ring" reviewed by John Sharpe


Inspired by the 5000 year old Neolithic rock carvings pictured on the sleeve, Cup & Ring opens and closes with brooding, ritualistic pieces in which Larry Stabbins' breathy flute drifts like mist over Mark Sanders' deliberate, processional percussion.

Laura Jurd & Paul Dunmall: Fanfares & Freedom

Read "Fanfares & Freedom" reviewed by John Sharpe


Well this is an entertaining premise. Free jazz maven Paul Dunmall as featured soloist in a suite composed by up- and-coming trumpeter Laura Jurd. Actually, the reality is more complex. It might be more accurate to say that the unfettered spirits of Dunmall's quartet, with bassist Caius Williams, drummer Miles Levin and pianist Liam Noble, offer ...

Martin Archer & Walt Shaw: Biyartabiyu

Read "Biyartabiyu" reviewed by John Sharpe


Will the real Martin Archer stand up? The head honcho of the Sheffield-located Discus imprint appears in such a variety of guises that one never quite knows what to expect from his name on the sleeve. However, as the press materials make clear, this unadorned saxophone and drum duo finds Archer in his natural habitat, channeling ...
