Kurt Rosenwinkel
Born:
American composer, multi-instrumentalist, bandleader, and producer Kurt Rosenwinkel is one of the most celebrated musical voices in jazz and is widely renowned as one of the most distinctive and gifted guitarists to have ever played the instrument.
Rosenwinkel’s harmonically rich, rhythmically free, and incomparably fluid style has made him one of the most important jazz musicians to emerge in the last thirty years, and his groundbreaking sonic conception of the guitar has changed the way the instrument has been perceived and played ever since. His recordings as a bandleader in early aughts on Verve Records were strikingly original releases that reshaped contemporary jazz in the 21st century

Joe Block: There is Always Hope
by Pierre Giroux
Joe Block's There Is Always Hope is an unusually personal debut, but what is most interesting is not the autobiographical material behind these 12 compositions. Rather, it is how Block has gradually learned to turn experience into musical structure. Written over many years, these pieces reveal a composer still testing the boundaries of his language, sometimes ...
Scott Kinsey: Thought Distortions and the Art of the Left Turn
by Mike Jacobs

The ardent admirer of Weather Report founder Joe Zawinul ...
Mike DiRubbo: Way Out Northwest
by Pierre Giroux
Some recordings try to overwhelm the listener with grand statements. With Way Out Northwest, alto saxophonist Mike DiRubbo is not trying to reinvent modern jazz but to remind us how rewarding it can be when four musicians know one another, allowing the music to develop through relationships built over time. Pianist Tilden Webb, bassist Jodi Proznick ...

Mathias Ruppnig: FOAM (feat. Kurt Rosenwinkel)
by Blue Summers
There is a long tradition of excellent European jazz composers, and a more recent addition to that list is Austrian drummer and composer Mathias Ruppnig. Ruppnig has a strong academic background in drumming and composing, and this is evident in the sophistication of the compositions and arrangements. But the presence of American guitarist Kurt Rosenwinkel adds a bit of ...
Jamile and Vinicius Gomes: Acoustic Thrills With Brazilian Twist
by R.J. DeLuke
The music of Brazil made its way into the jazz lexicon in the late 1950s and early 1960s when the bossa nova style emerged and caught on in the U.S., its chords and harmonies ripe for combining with the sensuous side of jazz. It's been a popular style ever since, with people in North ...
