Diego Urcola: Viva
by John Kelman
With a predominantly Latino lineup and a title like Viva, one might expect trumpeter Diego Urcola's latest release to be heavy on joyous Latin rhythms. However, like his earlier work, it's much broader in scope. His last record, Soundances (Sunnyside, 2003), recorded with an all-Argentinean cast, managed to blur the boundaries between his cultural roots and ...
David Binney: Out of Airplanes
by John Kelman
While altoist David Binney has demonstrated growth with each album he's released since emerging in the late 1980s, Out of Airplanes makes the biggest leaps yet, combining detailed composition with a looser improvisational approach that has evolved over the past couple of years. Electronics also make this the most texturally rich record of Binney's career. Binney's ...

Chick Corea: Secret Agent
by John Kelman
1978 was an almost impossibly active year for Chick Corea. Over the previous two years the keyboardist had moved away from the guitar-powered Romantic Warrior-era Return to Forever towards the larger, horn-driven incarnation responsible for 1977's Musicmagic. While he'd dissolve that version of the group after one tour and a live album, it was in many ...

Kris Davis: The Slightest Shift
by John Kelman
Canadian-born, New York-based pianist Kris Davis takes the delicate left-leaning balance of form and freedom of her debut, Lifespan (Fresh Sound New Talent, 2004), and moves even farther away from the center on The Slightest Shift. While Lifespan featured ensembles ranging from trio to sextet, the new record showcases Davis' working group of saxophonist Tony Malaby, ...
