Birchall & Woolhouse: The Scenery of Life Unfolding

Read "The Scenery of Life Unfolding" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan

by Dan McClenaghan

Piano trio albums--piano, bass and drums--may be the more common means of artistic expression in jazz, but piano/bass duet sets come long fairly often, too. Bassist Charlie Haden is a master of the approach, proof of which can be found on his teamings with pianists Keith Jarrett and Hank Jones on, respectively, Jasmine (ECM Records, 2011) ...

Maciej Fortuna / Krzysztof Dys: Tropy

Read "Tropy" reviewed by Karl Ackermann

by Karl Ackermann

It remains largely unrecognized that the Polish jazz culture predates Louis Armstrong's “invention" of modern improvised jazz. As early as 1923, Polish jazz musicians were touring Eastern Europe in the company of Chicago and New Orleans Dixieland players.
