Joe Lovano Us Five - Taking Bird to New Heights
CLICK HERE FOR AUDIO Live sessions in the KPLU Performance Studio are always fun. However, when saxophonist, Joe Lovano, stopped by with his group, Us Five, it was more than fun. It was also an honor. New York Times jazz critic, Ben Ratliff, put it very succinctly: “It's fair to say that (Lovano's) one of the ...
Joe Lovano: Joe Lovano - Bird Songs
by Jonathan Wertheim
Joe Lovano's Us Five debut, Folk Art (Blue Note, 2009), was a triumphantly energetic outing, filled with the sound of two drummers and running through a program of Lovano's originals. It was a highly personal and emphatic debut, and a great one too, but Bird Songs is important in completing the portrait of this ensemble.

Chris Crocco: The Chris Crocco Fluid Trio +
by Karl Ackermann
The best of creative modern jazz can be visualized like Providence's Waterfire: living, breathing art with the near silence of water and sizzle of fire. True to that spirit, The Chris Crocco Fluid Trio + offers both vitalizing and hushed elements in the sequence of tunes on its self-titled sophomore outing. Crocco, the southern-born, New York-based ...
Joe Lovano / Us Five: Bird Songs
by Troy Collins
An inquisitive musician with a reverence for tradition, Grammy-winning saxophonist Joe Lovano has recorded a number of unique tributes to artists who have inspired him, including Enrico Caruso and Frank Sinatra. But none of his previous homages, not even 52nd Street Themes (Blue Note, 2000), his love letter to the bebop era, are as relevant to ...
Joe Lovano / Us Five: Bird Songs
by Andrew J. Sammut
Sax giant Joe Lovano has blown next to a bevy of jazz greats, and been applauded as soloist and leader throughout his nearly 40-year career. While it might seem surprising that audiences had to wait until his 22nd album for a tribute to Charlie Parker, Bird Songs demonstrates, once again, that Lovano does things his own ...
Chris Crocco: The Chris Crocco Trio +
by Dan Bilawsky
What makes music fluid? Is it based on smooth transitions from section-to-section in each piece? The consistent flow of ideas from each individual artist involved in the music making process? The ability of a group to form a bond that allows them to travel along the same routes with simpatico sensibilities? The music of guitarist Chris ...
Javier Vercher: Wish You Were Here
by Enrique Turpin
Poco importa que Javier Vercher sea madrileño de nacimiento y valenciano de adopción. Defender un origen geográfico sólo tiene sentido si se está dispuesto a morir por él, y no creo que sea el caso del saxofonista, que bien pronto entendió que las fronteras que cabe preservar con la firmeza de las pasiones tienen que ver ...
