Jamie Ousley: A Sea of Voices
by Edward Blanco
Jamie Ousley is not only a renowned recording artist and producer, he is an educator by profession at Florida International University in Miami, and an environmentalist and person of deep, abiding faith.

Eddie Daniels / Roger Kellaway: Live At The Library Of Congress
by Dan Bilawsky
The Library Of Congress is a repository for important cultural artifacts, so it seems only fitting that it should serve as the stage for a duo recital from two of jazz's greatest treasures. Clarinetist Eddie Daniels and pianist Roger Kellaway have built their individual careers and reputations as genre-blind artists with near-unmatched technical prowess on their ...
Post Jazz Mistress: Global Warming
by Glenn Astarita
This Italian trio aims on imparting a new paradigm, concerning the somewhat populist integrations of jazz, progressive-rock, fusion and world music. With electric guitarist Osvaldo Di Dio's big sound, aligned with an acoustic rhythm section, the program is underscored by absorbing contrasts and tonalities. Largely consisting of slow to medium-tempo works, the sonorous soundscapes ...

by Glenn Astarita

Here, pianist Neil Cowley merges rock, pop sentiment and mainstream jazz into a stylistic enterprise, aided by a highly rhythmic undercurrent. Cowley injects a sense of antiquity into the program, via his slightly ...

The manner by which ...
Hendrik Meurkens: Live At Bird's Eye
by Dan Bilawsky
As a virtuoso harmonicist and vibraphonist, Hendrik Meurkens has always reigned supreme in the unique instrument doublers category, yet he never seems to get the attention he fully deserves. The German-born, New York-based Meurkens has been making beautiful and bouncy Brazilian-based music for decades with his instruments of choice, and Live At Bird's Eye is no ...
Jimmy Owens: The Monk Project
by Greg Simmons
Thelonious Monk is not suffering from inattention in 2011; it seems, in fact, that he's having a great year, for someone who died in 1982. His singularly quirky tunes have become the staples of hundreds of set lists, and it's hard to swing a dead cat in a record store without hitting dozens of new releases ...
