Opusjazz
by Robert J. Lewis
From her earliest years, pianist Julie Lamontagne was immersed in classical music, but after attending a concert by the great Oliver Jones, she switched to jazz in her mid-to late teens. However, her musical mother tongue and first love remains classical, to which she returns to after a long hiatus, but with a new angle: she ...
2012 Yuletide Offerings
by Dan Bilawsky
While thoughts of Christmas don't enter many a consumer's mind until Black Friday comes, musicians turn their eyes toward the last page of the calendar a bit earlier. Artists and labels need to conceive of, put together, record, release and market their holiday-themed albums early, so they can make their way into eager listener's stockings before ...
Brandi Disterheft: Gratitude
by Dan Bilawsky
Canada has had its fair share of fine female jazz exports over the past few decades: piano-vocal crossover star Diana Krall; trumpeter Ingrid Jensen and her equally fabulous saxophone playing sister, Christine Jensen; and pianist Renee Rosnes have all made their mark below the 49th parallel. With the release of Gratitude, bassist Brandi Disterheft is poised ...
Halie Loren: Stages
by Dan Bilawsky
The studio is a safe place for musicians looking to birth an album in a controlled environment, but the stage is the real proving ground for performers. These people make their mark when lights are low, nerves are tested and safety nets are removed. This is where the real deal musicians get separated from the great ...
Taurey Butler: Taurey Butler
by Larry Taylor
Having first heard pianist Taurey Butler while vacationing in Montreal, Canada at the House of Jazz, suffice it say that it was a great night of jazz from a trio also including bassist Eric Lagacé and drummer Wali Muhammad. Butler's self-titled debut features the same trio, playing six familiar tunes and five originals from the pianist.
Kenny Werner: Me, Myself and I
by Larry Taylor
Pianist Kenny Werner, though comparatively unsung, has been appreciated by many since forming a trio in 1981. He is also known for his series of stellar duos with harmonica virtuoso Toots Thieleman. Additionally, he has done yeoman duty with guitarist John Scofield, bassist Dave Holland and saxophonist Joe Lovano, all the while--for more than 20 years--working ...
Taurey Butler: Taurey Butler
by Dan Bilawsky
A keen interest in learning and a predilection for Oscar Peterson-style piano playing seem to be the two biggest guiding forces behind pianist Taurey Butler's life journey thus far. The New Jersey native started on piano in his youth, but put the instrument on the back burner until a Peterson-produced epiphany rekindled his interest in the ...
Halie Loren: Heart First
by Dan Bilawsky
Though vocalist Halie Loren has made a name for herself by bringing her warm and inviting alto to bear on a mixture of pop and jazz classics, she has received far too little attention in the United States. Much of the praise heaped upon her comes from Japan, where her fan base is strong and plentiful, ...
Chris Connor: Sings Gentle Bossa Nova
by AAJ Italy Staff
La Justin Time, emerita casa discografica canadese, ha tirato fuori dagli archivi un album della cantante Chris Connor, pubblicato nel 1965 dalla ABC-Paramount e prodotto allora da Ken Greenglass. Lei, bionda platinata e dalla voce irresistibilmente “cool," era uscita nel 1962 dalla scuderia Atlantic e dopo due album con la FM, codiretta dal suo manager Monte ...
