The leader or co-leader of a dozen or so different small ensembles playing everything from modern jazz to contemporary ...

Liberty Ellman: Radiate
by Troy Collins
Radiate is guitarist Liberty Ellman's fourth album under his own name since 1997 and his third for Pi Recordings, following 2006's Ophiuchus Butterfly. Ellman's output as a bandleader over the years has been secondary to his role as an in-demand sideman however, working with such luminaries as Vijay Iyer, Rudresh Mahanthappa, Myra Melford, and Jason Robinson--hence ...
Conference Call: Seven: Live @ Firehouse 12
by Mark Corroto
The collective quartet Conference Call performs music within the egalitarian principles of jazz as a democracy, confirming that a band can be both leaderless and led by different players without diminishing the quality and character of its music.

Jason Robinson: Tiresian Symmetry
by Glenn Astarita
Immersed in the myths of ancient Greece, multi-reedman Jason Robinson underscores this major work based on the prophet Tiresias, who lived as both a man and woman.
