John Escreet: Seismic Shift
by Mark Corroto
John Escreet's recording Seismic Shift, the pianist's first trio recording, might be the case for the return of warning labels on packaging. Not that there are explicit lyrics or violent images, it is just that the 52 minutes of music contained here are quite tempestuous and unrelenting. By design. Escreet is known for his ...
Gordon Grdina: Boiling Point
by Mike Jurkovic
For all its unstinting muscularity, feverish virtuosity and concentrated interplay, Canadian guitarist/oudist Gordon Grdina's first of two simultaneous summer releases, Boiling Point, could easily have been entitled Shock and Awe or Scorched Earth or perhaps even Ground Zero. Because as densely and wirily structured as these six Grdina comps are, Lower East Side piano legend Matt ...

Gordon Grdina's Nomad Trio: Boiling Point
by Dan McClenaghan

By the late 1940s, the term 'chamber jazz' was widely used in industry publications such ...

Elias Stemeseder: Solo Piano
by Dan McClenaghan
Pianist Elias Stemeseder, Austrian-born and New York-based since 2015, is ready--in 2022--to release his first album under his own name. Piano Solo is something he might not have taken on. He considers himself still a student. If not for the encouragement of Intakt Records' Florian Keller, this album may not have happened. The pianist has contributed, ...
The Essential Satoko Fujii, Part One: Solo, Duo, Trio, Quartet and Orchestra
by Dan McClenaghan
Satoko Fujii's recorded output comes at you hard and fast. It can overwhelm. In 2018—in celebration of her sixtieth birthday—the pianist/composer/bandleader released an album a month. Not download offerings, but real, handsomely produced CDs, with top of-the-line cover art and sturdy cardboard covers—jewels for the eye, ear and hand. Several other years have seen a release ...
