Greg Burk: Ivy Trio
by Nic Jones
It takes its time, this music. On first listen it comes on like the work merely of an accomplished piano trio that ticks all those boxes labeled with qualities such as technical accomplishment, urbanity, harmonic sophistication and the like. Further listening, however, reveals something a whole lot more worthwhile. The spirit of Herbie Nichols stalks the ...

Tyshawn Sorey: That/Not
by John Sharpe
Just because there are no drum solos doesn't mean that percussionist/composer Tyshawn Sorey is self-effacing in his leadership debut.

by John Sharpe
The exclamation mark which adorns the cover of Peter Evans Quartet's debut and, quintupled, gives the title for the opening piece, has never been more appropriate. Watch out. This is a record not to be messed with. The band explodes out of the starting gate and rarely let up over the course of the fifty-five minute ...
Peter Evans Quartet: The Peter Evans Quartet
by Nic Jones
It can be argued that a kind of pluralist sensibility lies at the heart of this music. Trumpeter Peter Evans is the embodiment of it in the way he combines the music here with the willingness to play the piccolo trumpet in a Baroque setting elsewhere. He is, thus, evidently a man of parts; and even ...
Peter Evans Quartet: The Peter Evans Quartet
by Mark Corroto
Between the fifteen-second song “How Long and the nearly nine-minute “Tag, you're left wondering if your CD player is in need of a cleaning. You ponder if the laser isn't unlike a diamond stylus of an LP player. Those of us who grew up with vinyl remember dropping the arm in the middle of a track, ...
Joe Fiedler Trio to Celebrate New CD at New York's Jazz Gallery November 29th
Joe Fiedler, a New York trombone player who is genuinely all over the map -- you're equally as likely to see him playing with salsa bands as in free-jazz festivals -- has made an excellent new record, The Crab (Clean Feed), with the bassist John Hebert and the drummer Michael Sarin...you don't get tired of his ...
