Thomas Marriott: Urban Folklore
by Stefano Merighi
Il quartetto di Thomas Marriott in questione rappresenta una bella sintesi del jazz americano: Marriott da Seattle, Eric Revis californiano, Orrin Evans erede della scuola di Philadelphia, infine Donald Edwards da New Orleans. Ma le origini non condizionano più di tanto una musica ecumenica, che vive sulla brillantezza tecnica, su un “esperanto" jazzistico che, se poco ...

Ben Wolfe: The Whisperer
by Mark Corroto
You can always gauge a bassist-led recording by the players he attracts on the bandstand or in the studio. Proof of this premise is Ben Wolfe's latest, The Whisperer. Just like Charles Mingus had his Jaki Byard, Booker Ervin, and Dannie Richmond, and Dave Holland his Craig Taborn, Kevin Eubanks, and Eric Harland, Wolfe is also ...

by C. Andrew Hovan

Thomas Marriott: Urban Folklore
by Mark Corroto
Nothing has hit quite as hard as recent music from the trio of pianist Orrin Evans, bassist Eric Revis and Drummer Donald Edwards. The three musicians seek out (or probably are sought by) collaborators of equal weight and energy. It is not surprising that this recording of nine compositions, led by trumpeter and Seattle native Thomas ...

Opus 5: Progression
by Andrew Luhn
In the world of jazz the quintet is an established tradition. The standard quintet format has been one of the most common throughout the history of the music. It's a hard format to mess up, but it's an even harder format in which to stand out. On their most recent recording, Progression, Opus 5 stands out ...

by Jack Bowers
New York-based pianist / composer (and two-time Grammy Award nominee) Orrin Evans served notice with his first big-band album for Posi-Tone Records that there was an impressive new ensemble on the scene, a message that is firmly underscored by the second, the cryptically named Mother's Touch, whose tone and temperament mirror Evans' contemporary point of view. ...
