Ornette Coleman: To Whom Who Keeps a Record
by Kurt Gottschalk
In principle, copies of the Beauty is a Rare Thing (Atlantic, 1992) box set should be issued with every voter registration card; no home is complete without the collection of Ornette Coleman's prodigious 1959-1961 output. A gathering of the six albums released during that time, three later albums culled from those sessions and alternate takes, it ...

Treader
by Kurt Gottschalk
The 2001 album Masses was far from the first electronic infusion into jazz. It wasn't even the first time the British duo Spring Heel Jack--known up to that point for more beat-oriented electronica--had worked with acoustic improvisers. But it was a remarkable piece of work--perhaps the first time jazz and electronic music had met on such ...
George Mraz / Iva Bittova: Moravian Gems
by Kurt Gottschalk
Over some twenty years of recording, the Czech violinist and singer Iva Bittova has done folk, classical and new music, recording with guitarist Fred Frith among others.

Gavin Bryars: The Marvellous Aphorisms of Gavin Bryars: The Early Years
by Kurt Gottschalk
While Gavin Bryars is best known for his long-form compositions ("The Sinking of the Titanic, Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet), he also played a significant role in the early development of British free improv, playing bass in the trio Joseph Holbrooke with Derek Bailey and Tony Oxley. He left the trio, which was far from ...
Huntsville: For the Middle Class
by Kurt Gottschalk
The chugging rhythm of the train is a staple of country music, the rolling four-count evoking the promises of opportunity and escape across vast open lands. Traditionally that rhythm is portrayed by an acoustic guitar or brushes on a snare drum, not tablas and much less mechanized ones. But Norwegian trio Huntsville isn't a traditional country ...
Sylvie Courvoisier: Lonelyville
by Kurt Gottschalk
Sylvie Courvoisier's work has come from a variety of angles over the years. She is a classically-trained composer with a strong ear for formal structure, an improviser with a strong sense of community and artistic relationships and an innovator whose work with preparing and altering the piano goes beyond the usual percussive effects to forge a ...
Jason Kao Hwang / Sang Won Park: Local Lingo
by Kurt Gottschalk
Through the 1990s, violinist Jason Kao Hwang mined an exploration of East Asian music filtered through the improvisatory language of downtown New York. Primarily with his Far East Band--with Sang Won Park on the stringed ajeng and kayagum and Yukio Tsuji on the flutelike shakuhachi, later augmented by Joe Daley's tuba--Hwang created an avant-garde take on ...
