Evan Parker Residency with McPhee, Shipp, Zorn, Courvoisier, et al. at The Stone, NYC
by Gordon Marshall
Evan Parker Residency The Stone East Village, Manhattan New York, New York October 1-16, 2009 Rivaled only, in recent memory, by Cecil Taylor's 1988 “Kongresshalle" collaborations in Berlin,* Evan Parker's residency at The Stone in East Village, Manhattan was, like those, a string of assorted and inventive pairings. ...
John Butcher & Mark Sanders / Alex Ward & Roger Turner / John Tchicai & Tony Marsh: Treader Duos
by John Eyles
These three contrasting reeds/drums duos are a fine record of the concert at which they were recorded, in February 2008 at St Giles-in-the-Fields church, London. Each of the three tracks lasts about twenty five minutes, long enough for the duos to give a good account of themselves. The three tracks give an opportunity to hear some ...
London Broil: John Butcher at The Stone, NYC
by Gordon Marshall
John Butcher The Stone East Village, Manhattan New York, New York November 14, 2009 On a sheer sonic level, John Butcher goes further into his instrument--and further out of it--than any of his monumental precursors in the iconoclast tradition of abstract British improvising. Not that ...
David Sylvian: Manafon
by John Kelman
David Sylvian Manafon samadhisound 2009 Since first emerging as the lead singer of 1980s synth pop group Japan, singer/multi-instrumentalist David Sylvian has turned, in many ways most surprisingly, into one of pop music's most intrepid explorers.

by Nic Jones
It's important to point out that this is Peter Brötzmann entirely solo on various reeds because, with this particular advocate of the free, the solo context has always amounted to something entirely different to his group work. As an unaccompanied soloist, he has always been an antithesis of Evan Parker's seamless flow on soprano sax in ...
Got Bass Clarinet? Jason Stein Does
by Mark Corroto
In the short history of jazz--only about 110 years--the bass clarinet has had an even shorter existence. Students of Charles Darwin's evolutionary studies might point towards the adaption of the instrument into the new jazz of the 1960s; or perhaps the branch of evolution studies called biogeography might explain that fertile locations spawn growth in the ...
Manfred Schoof: Resonance
by John Kelman
For every artist that has achieved international attention via the exposure of ECM Records, there are countless others who seem to have been lost beneath the cracks. German trumpeter Manfred Schoof, who recorded three superb albums for the ECM-affiliated JAPO label in the 1970s, was a member of the freewheeling Globe Unity Orchestra alongside Peter Brötzmann, ...
Portico Quartet: Not Particularly a Jazz Band

The history of Portico Quartet is brief, but it's also eventful. Since forming in 2005, this young British band have seen their first album, Knee Deep In The North Sea (Babel, 2007), become a Mercury Music Award Album of the Year, they've gathered rave reviews for their second album, Isla (Real World, 2009), and they've introduced ...
