Elias Stemeseder / Devin Gray / Anna Webber: Jagged Spheres

Read "Jagged Spheres" reviewed by Mark Corroto


The collective trio of Elias Stemeseder, Devin Gray, and Anna Webber ask you to separate the composed elements from the improvised on their debut release Jagged Spheres.

Christian Pincock: Plentiful Excitement

Read "Christian  Pincock: Plentiful Excitement" reviewed by Dave Wayne


The late trombonist, composer, and educator Bob Brookmeyer's greatest gift to the world may well be the legion of wonderful musicians whom he mentored during his tenure at the New England Conservatory.
