Eric Revis: Sing Me Some Cry
by Mark Corroto
Only a bassist like Eric Revis with a background in the origins of jazz (that is, New Orleans), hardcore, funk, and post-bop can pull off such a big project as Sing Me Some Cry. Not big as in impenetrable, but circus tent big--assimilating all his experiences. From Betty Carter and Lionel Hampton to his long-standing tenure ...
Avishai Cohen - Trumpet: Cross My Palm With Silver
by Karl Ackermann
If trumpeter Avishai Cohen's ECM debut, Into The Silence was a work of deeply personal content, Cross My Palm With Silver plays out with the same emotional impact, but on a global stage.

Karl Ackermann's Best Releases of 2016
by Karl Ackermann
2016 has proven that jazz and creative music in general, are healthier than ever. Artists like Steve Lehman, Nate Wooley and Vijay Iyer continue to push the envelope while those like Bob Gluck find ways to make the old, very new. This list is--for the most part--outside the mainstream because that is where artists risk the ...
Branford Marsalis Quartet with Special Guest Kurt Elling: Upward Spiral
by Stefano Merighi
Sembra che Branford Marsalis continui ad avere John Coltrane come stella polare nell'orientarsi in una luminosa maturità artistica. E come il maestro che, nel bel mezzo di un turbinoso oltrepassamento del linguaggio specifico del jazz, piazzava due disorientanti album di canzoni (i peraltro magnifici John Coltrane & Johnny Hartman e Ballads), così Branford interrompe l'intensa progressione ...

The question is not a zen koan, it is the notion put forth by the sixteen duets performed by pianist Kris Davis and her eight collaborating partners. Davis, who can no longer be labeled a “rising star" of jazz and improvised piano, is a fully ...
