Charles Evans / Neil Shah: Live at St. Stephens

Read "Live at St. Stephens" reviewed by Jakob Baekgaard

by Jakob Baekgaard

It is sometimes forgotten that music not only exists in time, but also in space. While the unfolding of notes, whether live or recorded, happens over time, the space in which the music is realized is of the outmost importance for the artistic result. The enigma of the improvising artist, the jazz musician in particular, is ...

Joey Baron: Just Say Yes

Read "Joey Baron: Just Say Yes" reviewed by Sean Patrick Fitzell

Steven Schoenberg: Steven Schoenberg Live: An Improvisational Journey

Read "Steven Schoenberg Live: An Improvisational Journey" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey

by C. Michael Bailey

Like the face of Helen launching a thousand ships, for better or worse, Keith Jarrett's 1975 Koln Concert (ECM) inspired a like number of improvisational piano recitals (half of which were ultimately Jarrett's own) and the entire genre of “New Age" solo piano music. This spontaneous creativity is, at best an inspiration, and at worst, a ...

McCoy Tyner: alone and (in spirit) with SFJAZZ Collective

Read "McCoy Tyner: alone and (in spirit) with SFJAZZ Collective" reviewed by J Hunter

by J Hunter

Usually, the kind of passionate tribute SFJAZZ Collective delivers annually is reserved for artists who are either no longer on the scene, or whose productivity has seriously tanked. However, current honoree McCoy Tyner fits neither of those definitions. The pianist's winter 2009 disc follows the remarkable CD/DVD package Guitars (Half Note, 2008), and is Tyner's third ...

Dave Liebman / Michael Stephans: Nomads

Read "Nomads" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

If ever there was a title to best fit Dave Liebman, it would be Nomads. Stylistically, the reedman's life has represented an endless traverse of infinite musical landscapes, ranging from freely improvised music with Australia-based pianist Mike Nock on Duologue (Birdland, 2007), and modern, open-ended mainstream with longtime musical partner, pianist Richie Beirach--heard most recently on ...
