Jenny Scheinman: 12 Songs

Read "12 Songs" reviewed by Michael McCaw


12 Songs is an album of imagination above all else. Like her frequent employer Bill Frisell (whom she employs here), Jenny Scheinman composes vignettes that frame a world for listeners to find comfort, not just through its distant familiarity, but with enough imaginative angularity to convert the most common hue of blue into a feathering peacock's ...

Jenny Scheinman: 12 Songs

Read "12 Songs" reviewed by John Kelman


From the opening notes of 12 Songs, it becomes clear why Jenny Scheinman has been guitarist Bill Frisell's violinist of choice for the past couple of years. It's more than being a good player--although she's very, very good. It's more about a shared sensibility that allows for liberal cross-pollination of genres, and a less-is-more approach to ...

Jenny Scheinman: Shalagaster

Read "Shalagaster" reviewed by Celeste Sunderland


Jenny Scheinman’s third solo album, Shalagaster, shimmers with such an array of color that it could work quite nicely as the score to a silent film. In fact, with a traipsing swagger and harmonies that gleam like satin, the record recalls a bit of silver screen romance. But purely old fashioned it is not. The violinist’s ...

Jenny Scheinman: Shalagaster

Read "Shalagaster" reviewed by AAJ Staff


Tzadik's Oracle series, dedicated to creative female artists, is now in its ninth reincarnation, after memorable releases by Susie Ibarra and Yuka Honda, among others. Shalagaster draws its strength from the warm, melodic sound of Jenny Scheinman's violin, funneled into a series of relatively low-key original compositions. Varied international flavor comes through in the form of ...
