John McLaughlin: Where Fortune Smiles
by Roger Farbey
Where Fortune Smiles although customarily attributed to John McLaughlin is as much John Surman's record as it was the Mahavishnu's. But it's probably more accurate to describe it as a collective recording since all five musicians were equally matched players of international standing. The cover art actually depicts all five musicians' names and the title of ...
Leonor Falcón: Imaga Mondo
by Troy Dostert
Violinist Leonor Falcón takes a leap into the realm of the fantastical with her debut record, Imaga Mondo--literally, “Imaginary World" in Esperanto. Having long inhabited disparate musical territories, including classical stints with the Sirius Quartet and other chamber ensembles as well as her work with jazz musicians like Akua Dixon and Karl Berger, she's well-positioned to ...

The Black Butterflies: Luisa
by Matt Marshall
On their two previous releases, 1 de Mayo (2010) and Rainbows for Ramon (2012), The Black Butterflies built soulful, searching jazz with dense, kinetic layers of Latin and African rhythms. Using both group improvisation and individual statements, they freely, yet unhurriedly, explored the boundaries of their music, often lingering in spots to let the tonal palette ...
Ivo Perelman: The Art of the Improv Trio
by Giuseppe Segala
Sei volumi dedicati all'arte dell'improvvisazione in trio rappresentano una bella impresa. Per il musicista e per chi ascolta. Anche per chi, come il sassofonista di origini brasiliane Ivo Perelman, non si fa certo intimorire dalle strade impervie. È connaturata alla sua personalità artistica la ricerca in ogni dettaglio e sotto ogni angolazione possibile delle vene aurifere ...
