John Butcher: duos with piano and harp

Read "John Butcher: duos with piano and harp" reviewed by John Eyles

by John Eyles

Although his first release, Fonetiks (Bead, 1984), was a duo with pianist Chris Burn, in saxophonist John Butcher's large discography, duos are comparatively scarce. The majority are with drummers such as Gerry Hemingway, Paal Nilssen-Love, Eddie Prevost, Gino Robair, Mark Sanders and Dylan van der Schyff. Other notable partners include pianist Steve Beresford, bassist John Edwards, ...

Daniel Blacksberg: Bit Heads

Read "Bit Heads" reviewed by Clifford Allen

by Clifford Allen

It's somewhat surprising that there aren't too many active trombone/bass/drums power trios around, with the model being strongly set in the late 1970s New York scene by such bands as BassDrumBone (trombonist Ray Anderson, drummer Gerry Hemingway, bassist Mark Helias) and the comparable, albeit freer group Brahma, with drummer Barry Altschul. The lack of current 'bone-heavy ...

Read "To Fly To Steal" reviewed by Nic Jones

by Nic Jones

Between the membership of this quartet (Mark Feldman, Sylvie Courvoisier, Thomas Morgan, and Gerry Hemingway) embodies the twenty-first century improvising musician.

Sylvie Courvoisier / Mark Feldman Quartet: To Fly To Steal

Read "To Fly To Steal" reviewed by Glenn Astarita

by Glenn Astarita

Violinist Mark Feldman and his wife, pianist Sylvie Courvoisier eloquently morph restraint, depth and a contemporary classical touch into the progressive-jazz idiom on this 2010 release. Respectively, the musicians are ceaselessly engaged within the new music style of jazz and improvisation, having recorded for several record labels, spanning several years. No doubt, the duo's venerable artistic ...

Gerry Hemingway: Songs

Read "Songs" reviewed by Martin Longley

by Martin Longley

When drummer Gerry Hemingway decides to pursue a song-based project, the only predictable outcome is that it will be unpredictable. His approach to composition includes elements of rock, electronica, minimalism and Broadway intimacy, yet can't be deemed any of these things. As well as the music, Hemingway has also penned the words. His chosen voice is ...
