Veteran Russian pianist Misha Tsiganov has an extensive discography featuring original compositions and, like most musicians, blending a few standards for familiarity along the way.

The Artistry of the Standard
by Andrew Luhn
On the homepage of Misha Tsiganov's website is a quote that reads “Falling in love with jazz is exactly like falling in love with a person... Except with jazz you never get over it..."

Misha Tsiganov: The Artistry Of The Standard
by Dan Bilawsky
Standards represent so many things. They can be a fallback for those short on ideas or a springboard for those willing to invest a bit of themselves into the music.

Sven Ake Johansson: Jazzbox
by Mark Corroto
Funny how listening to the five-CD Jazzbox by free jazz drummer Sven-Åke Johansson may remind you of the British punk rock band The Clash's first hit single “Train In Vain" (1980). Like Joe Strummer and Mick Jones, Johansson's career has been one that has worked to challenge the language of American music. In The Clash's case, ...
John Moriarty: Echoes
by Ian Patterson
Adopting a traditional, straight-ahead approach to the quartet, Irish guitarist John Moriarty gathered three established New York-based musicians for one day in the Bunker Studios, Brooklyn. The title suggests homage, and there is a hint of classic Blue Note in the leader's clean lines--evocative of guitarist Jim Hall--and in half of the songs that delve into ...
Helio Alves and Duduka Da Fonseca (HD2): Songs from the Last Century
