Coco Zhao: Dream Situation
by Mark F. Turner
Out of a small town called Shao Yang in the Hunan province of China comes the exotic Dream Situation, by jazz vocalist Coco Zhao. Zhao's parents specialized in traditional Chinese opera, and his own background was based on Western classical music. His journey into jazz took flight around 1995 in various clubs in Shanghai, where he ...
Christine Jensen: Look Left
by John Kelman
While Christine Jensen remains one of Canada's best kept secrets, she has garnered some international attention since emerging on the scene in the mid-1990s. Three of her compositions were featured on the highly regarded Vernal Fields (Enja, 1994), by her sister, trumpeter Ingrid Jensen, and she's had works for big band recorded and performed the world ...
John Roney: Rate of Change
by Budd Kopman
The Canadian scene continues to be impressive. John Roney's Rate Of Change leads me to wonder what it is that creates a sense of something that can be called “Canadian jazz." While Canada itself is somewhat divided by language (and culture), the country's mainstream jazzers feel connected by a strong sense of optimism and an underlying ...
John Roney Trio: Rate of Change
by John Kelman
Since moving from Toronto in 2001, pianist John Roney has climbed the ladder of the Montreal jazz scene with remarkable speed. For the past couple of years his trio with bassist Zack Lober and drummer Jim Doxas has been hosting the Montreal Jazz Festival's late night jam sessions, and it would be difficult to find a ...
Francois Richard: Ad Infinitum
by Budd Kopman
The flute often gets no respect as a jazz instrument, and even the notes to Ad Infinitum start off with a kind of apology saying that the flute has a “refined elegance and charm that make it a natural partner of the piano, and musical encounters with flute are often of the intimate, peaceful kind."
Steve Amirault: Breath
by Budd Kopman
Steve Amirault has produced a fine piano trio album in Breath. He's not a tricky player, but his music brims with emotion; his melodies and style reflect a very personal means of expression with little that would be called straight-ahead jazz. Though Amirault clearly has the chops, his playing is not about showing off or using ...
Nehring/Koller & Braid: Set In Stone
by Budd Kopman
The Canadian music scene continues to bubble. One of Canada's almost mythical jazz musicians is trumpeter and flugelhornist ---> Fred Stone (1935-86). Stone was the first Canadian to join Duke Ellington's band, and the experience changed him, leading him to become an increasingly unique composer and arranger. This homage to Stone treats his ...
Nehring/Koller & Braid: Set In Stone
by Jerry D'Souza
On Set in Stone, Lorne Nehring, George Koller, and David Braid pay tribute to Fred Stone, a musician and educator who was the first Canadian in Duke Ellington's band. And while that is an achievement in itself, Stone did much more with his calling. He played the piano, the flugelhorn, and the trumpet and experimented with ...
Min Rager: Bright Road
by Budd Kopman
Blessed with the gift of melody, Min Rager has created an album of original compositions full of smiles, hope, laughter, and just plain great listening. The Korean native is now completing her master's degree at McGill University in Canada; Bright Road is her debut on record. The sound created by the quintet is huge, which can ...
