Chet Doxas Quartet: Sidewalk Etiquette
by John Kelman
Between appearing as the house band at this year's Montreal Jazz Festival jam sessions and recording his debut CD, Rate of Change (Effendi, 2006), the flexibility of Montreal-based pianist John Roney and his trio with bassist Zack Lober and drummer Jim Doxas should come as no surprise. As the rhythm section with Jim's brother Chet's quartet, ...
World Saxophone Quartet: Political Blues
by Karl A.D. Evangelista
Political conscience occupies a special place in the quintessence of modern jazz, fueling, in its most heated moments, the stuff of blunt insurrection. It remains to be seen whether Political Blues, the most recent offering by the World Saxophone Quartet, occupies the same territory as those few moments of musical activism that have not only informed ...
Alex Bellgarde Quartet: Caminando
by Dan McClenaghan
The freedom of jazz and the joy of Cuban rhythms are what bandleader Alex Bellegarde says he loves, and Caminando combines spontaneity and structure for an affair of the heart. The Montreal-based bassist leads a vibrant Latin-leaning quartet featuring Cuban- born pianist Yoel Diaz; alto sax man Erik Hove; drummer Yvon Piouffe; and a special guest, ...
Nancy Wilson: Turned To Blue
by Jeff Winbush
One of the hardest things for a fan to do is watch a premier athlete or entertainer begin to falter and show the first signs that age has begun to compromise their talent. It was saddening to watch Muhammad Ali unable to fend off Larry Holmes. It was troubling to watch the great Michael Jordan being ...
Nancy Wilson: Turned To Blue
by Dr. Judith Schlesinger
This recording is like heirloom silver: finely etched and gleaming with a rich and mellow sheen. Its many delights include top-level players, excellent arrangements and production values, and a variety of configurations from a smoking all-star big band to intimate quartets. There are also great solo turns by the likes of John Clayton, James Moody, Bob ...
John Stetch Trio: Bruxin'
by Ken Kase
After recording three finely crafted and well-received solo piano albums, John Stetch returns to the trio format for the first time since Green Grove (1999). Bruxin', his first disc to feature a program comprised entirely of original compositions, finds Stetch looking back on some old gems from his past and offering brand new tunes ...
John Stetch Trio: Bruxin'
by Dr. Judith Schlesinger
With this collection of eleven originals, Canadian-born pianist John Stetch enhances his reputation as an innovative performer and composer. Stetch's work is paradoxical: it's simultaneously complex and accessible, earnest and playful; full of quirky rhythms and harmonies, it's still rooted in classic swing. Bassist Sean Smith and drummer Rodney Green are essential to the whirling, welcoming ...
John Stetch Trio: Bruxin'
by Nic Jones
For all the hype that's been lavished on piano trios over the past few years, there are still signs of musical life in the lineup, as Bruxin' exemplifies. This programme of worthwhile music could also serve as a statement of artistic intent, implying a welcome level of individuality. Stetch has gone for a comparatively risky option ...
David Murray 4tet & Strings: Waltz Again
by Ollie Bivens
Saxophonist David Murray is arguably the most recorded jazz musician in history. In the last ten years alone he has released over thirty albums. During the course of his thirty-year career, Murray has played bebop, Latin jazz, swing, world music and free jazz, performing in almost every configuration imaginable--solo, duo, trio, quartet, quintet, octet and big ...
Quadro Nuevo: Mocca Flor
by R. Emmet Sweeney
Exhaustingly Orientalist, the Austrian quartet Quadro Nuevo tries to reconstruct the fantasy Middle East of Delacroix and the fantasy Europe of An American in Paris but lacks the inspiration of both, and ends up looking like a boring artifact from a racist era. Multicultural to a fault, it packs in tangos, Neapolitan ballads, early swing tunes, ...
