Harris Eisenstadt / Achim Kaufmann / Mark Dresser: Starmelodics
by John Sharpe
Canadian drummer and composer Harris Eisenstadt spans a broad spectrum. He has written for large ensemble, octets and small groups, in styles ranging from chamber to Senegalese pop. Though particularly enamored of African drum rhythms he also works readily in totally improvised settings, so his name on the sleeve rarely betokens an expected outcome.

Harris Eisenstadt: Guewel
by AAJ Italy Staff
Un po' di Art Ensemble of Chicago per l'africanità recuperata e fatta esplodere attraverso il free, un poco di World Saxophone Quartet per la sapienza nella armonizzazione dei fiati, un pizzico di Brotherhood of Breath per l'abilità nel dar risalto alla gioiosità melodica dei brani. Ma riassumere Guewel in questo modo sarebbe riduttivo e ingiusto nei ...

Ned Rothenberg
by Sean Patrick Fitzell
Twisting alto and tenor saxophone lines gradually coalesced then dispersed, tacking between consonance and dissonance as Ned Rothenberg and Evan Parker launched their recent duo gig at Issue Project Room. Long circular-breathed patterns were punctuated with overblown tones before the two exchanged almost bluesy lines, complementing and responding in a taut dialogue of fluent masters.
Harris Eisenstadt: Guewel
by Mark Corroto
Drummer Harris Eisenstadt's recording, Guewel, isn't jazz. That is to say, it isn't jazz in the American sense of the word but, rather, jazz in the West African musical tradition. Eisenstadt, a Canadian-born New Yorker, is a student of the art of drumming. His two trips to Gambia and Senegal inspire this recording and his previous ...
