Mark Karan: This is What I Do
By : Andrew Wetzler The South Florida music scene has blossomed over the past decade or so, but there is still nowhere near the flow of gold nugget acts that fans experience in New York, San Francisco, Baltimore or many other more established live music towns. So, when Mark Karan and Jemimah Puddleduck (JP) announced their ...
Nobu Stowe: Oltre il Free Jazz
by AAJ Italy Staff
Articolo di Glenn Astarita La musica di Nobu Stowe è sinonimo di spontaneità e romanticismo melodico—una vera rarità parlando di musica improvvisata. Stowe non solo padroneggia con maestria l'arte dell'improvvisazione totale ma attinge continuamente dal vasto panorama delle sue influenze musicali, che spaziano dal Barocco al rock progressivo, dalle colonne sonore agli elementi etnici, e molto ...
Josh Roseman: Reimagining the Constellations
by R.J. DeLuke
Josh Roseman is a busy man. Extremely busy. He's also an extremely bright one, which is good because otherwise one might pause to consider whether, with all those activities, he is wearing himself too thin. Turns out he is spreading wide, but nothing about him or his many pursuits is thin. Especially not his creativity.
Happy Birthday, Hampton Hawes!
Hard bop pianist Hampton Hawes was born in Los Angeles on this date in 1928. His father was a Presbyterian preacher and his mother was the church's pianist. His interest in piano may have first begun as a toddler as he listened to his mother rehearsing, and he was already plunking out tunes by the age ...
Clifton Anderson: Leading The Way
by Mikayla Gilbreath
Not since the heyday of Glenn Miller and Tommy Dorsey has the trombone enjoyed widespread acceptance as a band leader's instrument. With only a few exceptions, the last half century has seen trombonists slide from favor as leaders and become more commonly viewed as sidemen. Even genuinely notable artists like J.J. Johnson, Frank Rosolino, ...
Blues, Touch, Bop and Rhythm: In the Hands of Kenny Barron
In the midst of a tour of America's Heartland, NEA Jazz Master pianist Kenny Barron took time to address a Saturday morning gathering of students and miscellaneous enthusiasts in Iowa City, a prelude to the evening's concert with his trio and special touring partner David Sanchez. The billing information suggested a more formal presentation, but Barron ...

Trumpeter Jay Phelps Interviewed at All About Jazz...and More!
At the age of 28, trumpeter Jay Phelps already has a broad range of musical experiences under his belt, including co-founding the award-winning jazz group Empirical. Releasing his debut album as a leader, Jay Walkin' (Specific Records, 2010), seems like a natural next step. But Phelps is clearly not a man to be rushed. The album ...
Latin Jazz Conversations: Jovino Santos Neto (Part 2)
Whether similarities are readily apparent on the surface, musical styles share common roots from around the world. We hear an end product that has reached our ears after many different connections with established traditions. We tend to forget that these finely shaped musical products developed through a number of interactions, mostly because we don't obviously see ...
Interview: Phil Ramone (Part 4)
In 1967, Phil Ramone began engineering a string of Dionne Warwick's hits by Burt Bacharach and Hal David. If Bacharach and David were America's equivalent of Lennon and McCartney (perhaps even bigger by some accounts), then Phil was akin to George Martin. But unlike the Beatles, there was no overdubbing. Instead, everything was recorded at once, ...
