Harris Eisenstadt: Canada Day II
by Mark Corroto
If you believe most recordings by drummer/composers are positive statements, then Harris Eisenstadt's Canada Day II is more than a glass half full. It is a brimming cup of music. The disc follows 2009's Canada Day, on Portugal's Clean Feed label, with the same lineup. Eisenstadt infuses each recording with a buoyancy and high-spiritedness, ...
Duos: When The Sum Is Greater Than Its Parts
by Mark Corroto
The defining characteristic of all great partnerships in cinema, from the male-bonding buddy movie to the classic Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy films, is the tension created between two self-assertive characters, before their eventual collaboration. The same can be said of jazz and improvisational duos. By matching two authoritative players, sparks fly and, if the two ...
Endangered Blood: Endangered Blood
by Mark Corroto
Endangered Blood formed in 2008, to play a benefit concert to help pay for fellow musician Andrew D'Angelo's medical bills.

The Claudia Quintet: Royal Toast
by AAJ Italy Staff
Ora possiamo dirlo: il Claudia Quintet si è fatto “maniera". Il processo di cristallizzazione abbozzato su Semi-Formal e For, con Royal Toast è giunto a perfetto compimento. Gli orizzonti del possibile sono azzerati. Le attese e la curiosità dell'ascoltatore soffocate in un gioco sterile di autocompiacimento estetizzato. Le “forme" hanno preso definitivamente il sopravvento, sono diventate ...
Brian Drye: Bizingas
by Troy Collins
Bizingas is the self-titled debut of trombonist Brian Drye's quartet of the same name. A versatile stylist whose resume includes stints with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra, Slavic Soul Party and indie rock stars like Arcade Fire, Drye's eclecticism is a common trait in the fertile Brooklyn scene he calls home, where his protean sensibility is best ...
