Karl Jannuska: Liberating Vines
by Paul Olson
Liberating Vines is both the name of expatriate Canadian (now Paris-based) drummer Karl Jannuska's new CD and of his Montréal group with altoist Brodie West, tenorist Kelly Jefferson, bassist Fraser Hollins, and pianist John Sadowy. The album's compositions and arrangements are all by Jannuska, and the detailed, rigorous post bop performed here makes Liberating Vines the ...
Joel Miller: Mandala
by Michael P. Gladstone
Canadian saxophonist Joel Miller experienced an epiphany in 2002 that affected his musical direction. The title of this album dates back to Sanskrit, the ancient language of India, and has been used in a number of ways including, in this case, achieving wholeness and forming a harmonious relationship with one's self. Coincident to this important change, ...

by Paul Olson
Joe Sullivan Joe Sullivan Big Band Effendi Records 2004 I'll just go ahead and state the obvious: you'd have to be crazy to form a jazz big band. It wasn't always so: in the swing era, of course, that was what people wanted to hear. That's what a jazz band ...

Fr: Tap Bass
by J. Robert Bragonier
My exposure to Effendi Records has been a felicitous one. Time after time, the label has exposed me to unfamiliar names, primarily those of Montréal-based musicians, only to reveal that these names belong to jazz musicians of the highest caliber. This CD is no exception. Frédéric Alarie is a Montréal-born bassist whose 15-year ...
Yves L: Quantique
by Jerry D'Souza
The very first moments on the album capture the imagination as Yves Léveillé brings into play a conversation between limber notes and chunky chords. The latter reverberate densely against the spacey runs that precede them. Together they bring about a symbiotic relationship. This augurs well for the music that follows. But no groove ...
Fran: Elenar
by Jerry D'Souza
First, François Théberge: the man who likes to bring a twist to his tale. Second, the musicians: players who can vision the craft of the leader and augment it with their approach. Third, the instruments: brass and some unusual wind instruments that give the music a distinctive air. Fourth, the title: Elenar, a play on L ...
Thom Gossage Other Voices: The Now Beyond
by Jerry D'Souza
The music on this record was written by Thom Gossage after the band’s tour in 2002 and reflects the experiences during that period as well as the individual and collective strengths of the group. Also included is music outside the pale of those times. Gossage keeps his music at a slow simmer when it ...
