Joan Stiles: Three Musicians

Read "Three Musicians" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


On the surface, Three Musicians is a smart collection of performances from a witty threesome, but closer observation reveals deep Cubist intent. In referencing one of Pablo Picasso's masterpieces, pianist Joan Stiles touches on a style of art that rarely finds an overt entrance into jazz, creating a layered, collage ideology within the very fabric of ...

Joan Stiles: Hurly-Burly

Read "Hurly-Burly" reviewed by Michael P. Gladstone


Pianist, composer, bandleader and occasional vocalist Joan Stiles's terrific Hurly-Burly shows her skill at arranging, as well as being an ambitious tribute to her pianistic heroes. Here's hoping that it works this time, as her debut recording Love Calls (Zoho, 2004), which included a most impressive cast of Clark Terry, Frank Wess, Warren Vache, Benny Powell ...

Joan Stiles and Lisa Hilton: Two New York States Of Mind

Read "Joan Stiles and Lisa Hilton: Two New York States Of Mind" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey

Despite their part-shared personnels, these recordings ...

Joan Stiles: Love Call

Read "Love Call" reviewed by Jochem van Dijk


A genre not too often reiterated: songbook rephrasings with a tightly arranged ensemble in various appearances. Although pianist and arranger Joan Stiles is by all means a fine and thoughtful player, it is in the underrated art of writing and conducting horn charts for small ensembles, that Love Call really shines. She makes ...
