Piano Four-té: Keyboard Masters Delight On A Quartet of ECM Luminessence Vinyl Reissues
by Joshua Weiner
Blue Note. Verve. Impulse! Prestige. Just saying the name of such storied jazz record labels immediately conjures up each one's distinct aesthetic, from the music to the cover art. Over the past half century, the German ECM label has earned its place in this pantheon by steadfastly following its own vision, perhaps best summed up by ...

by Mike Jurkovic
For his Blue Note debut, saxophonist Branford Marsalis and his long-standing quartet--pianist Joey Calderazzo, bassist Eric Revis and drummer Justin Faulkner--hit the sweet spot again and again and again, reinterpreting and re-imagining Keith Jarrett's epochal 1974 ECM classic, Belonging.

Benjamin Lackner: Spindrift
by Mario Calvitti
Il nuovo lavoro del pianista berlinese Benjamin Lackner, Spindrift, non si distacca molto dal precedente Last Decade, anch'esso pubblicato da ECM un paio di anni fa.

Adam Berenson: What Is This Place?
by Dan McClenaghan
Pianist/keyboardist/composer Adam Berenson is fascinated with Eberhard Weber, the German jazz player probably better known for his “worked with" listing than his own album releases. The influential bassist/composer has helped to shape and shade and color albums by, among others, saxophonist Jan Garbarek, Pat Metheny, guitarist Ralph Towner and vibraphonist Gary Burton. This is a “minimal ...
