Read "Bellwether" reviewed by Robert Dugan

by Robert Dugan

This is a great period for tenor players, with some of the best in our midst: Chris Potter, Jimmy Greene, Donny McCaslin, Marcus Strickland, and Seamus Blake, among others. Surfacing in the Mingus Big Band during the nineties, Blake's aggressive edginess was impressive in a group which took no prisoners. The tenor saxophonist more than held ...

Charnett Moffett: Improvisational Artistry

Read "Charnett Moffett: Improvisational Artistry" reviewed by R.J. DeLuke

by R.J. DeLuke

"I enjoy all of the music, just as I enjoy different aspects of color in paintings, or different people, or different types of food, or things of that nature. For me, it seems to be a more interesting way of life to have an appreciation for all that is offered on the planet."

Read "Christian McBride: Getting the Inside Straight" reviewed by Esther Berlanga-Ryan

by Esther Berlanga-Ryan

If we think about it for a little while, it's possible to believe that there is something almost mystic and undeniably powerful about jazz. The way it developed through the years and its constant ignition-like energy; the creativity of those who lead the way and those who continue the journey today; the improvisation that takes over ...

Myron Walden: Eclectic Reedman

Read "Myron Walden: Eclectic Reedman" reviewed by Edward Bride

More so than many other musicians, Walden himself eschews reliance on any one instrument, not tenor or alto nor soprano nor bass nor... well, you get the idea.

by Bruce Lindsay

Virtue is Eldar's fourth album--his sixth, if his early independent releases are included--something of an achievement for a musician who was only 22 years old at the time of the album's release. The album further affirms the Kyrgyzstan-born, New York-based musician's deserved reputation for technical ability. Across the 11 tracks Eldar shows speed and virtuosity--on one ...
