Read "Ulf Wakenius: Confessions of A Vagabond" reviewed by Ian Patterson

by Ian Patterson

Happenstance may play a role in turning dreams into reality, but anyone who's ever realized a burning ambition will appreciate just how much hard work has paved the way.

Keith Jarrett / Charlie Haden: Last Dance

Read "Keith Jarrett / Charlie Haden: Last Dance" reviewed by John Kelman

Agustí Fernández/Barry Guy/Ramón López: A Moment's Liberty

Read "A Moment's Liberty" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

The term “elegance," is rarely utilized when referring to a jazz recording. In fact, “elegant jass"might be an oxymoronic term. Sure, The Modern Jazz Quartet always performed in formal wear, and Duke Ellington evoked gracefulness in response to his advertised “jungle music," but jazz has always bumped up against the high brow ceiling of more orthodox ...
