Com'è noto, i festival jazz offrono ai musicisti non solo un palcoscenico su cui esibirsi, ma anche un'opportunità per incontrare altri musicisti ed avviare nuove collaborazioni. Nel caso specifico, il festival è il Mediawave di Oriszentpéter (Ungheria). L'incontro, quello tra il sassofonista Mihály Dresch, ed il pianista Lafayette Gilchrist. Il resto l'ha fatto la lungimirante etichetta ...

Lafayette Gilchrist: Soul Progressin'

Read "Soul Progressin'" reviewed by Jay Deshpande


On Soul Progressin', Lafayette Gilchrist mixes a funky sensibility with, above all else, a sense of play. The album showcases the young pianist's compositions in a no-holds-barred, gutsy display of honest sound. Throughout, Gilchrist is supported by the strong horn section (two trumpets, three saxophones) that defines his band, the New Volcanoes. Gilchrist ...

Read "Soul Progressin'" reviewed by Troy Collins


Baltimore-based pianist Lafayette Gilchrist stripped away the five-piece horn section of his octet, The New Volcanoes, fron his previous session, Third (Hyena Records, 2007), for an intimate trio exploration of hard- hitting funk. Soul Progressin' is the third album in his discography to feature the massed horns of The New Volcanoes, following in the footsteps of ...

Lafayette Gilchrist: Soul Progressin'

Read "Soul Progressin'" reviewed by Chris May


Baltimore pianist Lafayette Gilchrist has a style which satisfyingly combines two very different aesthetics: the funky and the sophisticated.
