Jerome Sabbagh: One Two Three

Read "One Two Three" reviewed by Warren Allen


French tenor man Jerome Sabbagh has been exploring the sax trio format around New York City clubs for more than five years.

Joel Harrison: Urban Myths

Read "Urban Myths" reviewed by Donald Elfman


A key element in Joel Harrison's history is what he calls the “electric jazz" of the '70s. So this smart and inventive guitarist offers his own reconsideration of the music championed nearly 40 years ago. This is powerfully intense music but also has a sense of play that keeps its ingredients engaging. The ...

Jerome Sabbagh: One Two Three

Read "One Two Three" reviewed by Elliott Simon


The opening cut on One Two Three is pianist George Shearing's bop classic “Conception". Do not, however, let this fool you. Although tenorist Jerome Sabbagh burns, this is not simply a blowing session nor is it really, as Sabbagh suggests, his take on the standards.

Jerome Sabbagh: Pogo

Read "Pogo" reviewed by Budd Kopman


Under a coolness that is felt on the surface of the music, saxophonist Jerome Sabbagh--on the fine release Pogo--creates a tension that is expertly controlled. Intent on developing a style that is personal and recognizable, Sabbagh composes and plays from a core that seems at first tightly controlled. However, that which seems to be reticence turns ...

Jerome Sabbagh: Pogo

Read "Pogo" reviewed by Mark F. Turner


On Pogo, French-born saxophonist Jerome Sabbagh remembers the wise lesson that “If it's not broken; don't fix it. Though his recording label has changed, this release consists of the same quartet members and eclectic formula that made his acclaimed release North (2004, Fresh Sound New Talent) such a success. A thorough technician with ...
