Tamir Hendelman: Destinations
by Larry Taylor
Well recognized for 10 years as an important member of drummer Jeff Hamilton's Trio and the Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra., pianist Tamir Hendelman has also gained recognition as an accompanist for singers such as Tierney Sutton.

Tamir Hendelman: Destinations
by Dr. Judith Schlesinger
Destinations, pianist Tamir Hendelman's second CD as leader, is a bold and satisfying follow-up to his 2008 debut, Playground (Swing Bros).

What increasingly distinguishes Hendelman is his ...

James Moody: Moody 4B
by Edward Blanco
A stellar follow up to Moody 4A (IPO, 2009), saxophone icon James Moody presents the sequel Moody 4B, actually recorded the day after the first session with the same blue chip quartet. Legendary pianist Kenny Barron, renowned bassist Todd Coolman and versatile drummer Lewis Nash all lend their collective musical energy for this second date. Much ...
James Moody: Moody 4B
by Dan Bilawsky
James Moody's 4B is a companion-piece--or continuation-of-sorts--of 2009's 4A. The two albums, while released a year apart, were recorded on back-to-back days in 2008. While the “B" status might lead to the conclusion that this is a consolation prize of an album, that's is hardly the case. Moody and his superb quartet, featuring fellow Dizzy Gillespie-alumnus ...
James Moody: Moody 4B
by Warren Allen
Each year since 1950, James Moody has played a concert at Carnegie Hall in New York. In 2010, the annual visit will be a little sweeter as Moody celebrates his 85th birthday, with a slice of cake on Seventh Avenue and a concert of greats. No doubt, the sprightly sax (and flute) master behind such classic ...
Anat Cohen: Clarinetwork: Live at the Village Vanguard
by Thomas Conrad
Anat Cohen is one of the major jazz success stories of the last decade. She arrived in New York from Israel in 1996 and, by the turn of the century, was an important factor in the reemergence of the clarinet as a solo jazz instrument. Yet her recordings have not captured the bacchanalian riot of Cohen ...
