Sean Jones: Im•pro•vise-Never Before Seen
by Dan Bilawsky
Sean Jones, the former lead trumpeter of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, never hides behind anything or anyone when he plays.

Orrin Evans: Hot Irons In The Fire
by R.J. DeLuke
A pianist with great chops, great touch and an attack that fancies many influences from fierce swing to gospel, Orrin Evans is one of the outstanding creative musicians on the New York City scene. His work, no matter what the context--and he loves different contexts--is downright riveting at times. But for the 38-year-old who ...

David Weiss and his mini big band of jazz chameleons are a ready example of how to concentrate at OCD levels to perfect musical things of beauty that stand the test of time, repeatedly. Many have focused a hell of a lot more than 10,000 hours to cultivate this sound, and some have overcome myriad adversities ...
Bill O'Connell + The Latin Jazz All-Stars: Zócalo
by Dan Bilawsky
Latin jazz piano dynamo Bill O'Connell found a parallel between this gathering and Zócalo, the main plaza situated in the center of Mexico City; that square has long been a place where people meet to connect, celebrate and join together as one, and the same sense of togetherness and unity associated with that spot surrounds this ...

David Weiss & Point Of Departure: Venture Inward
by Dan Bilawsky
Fans of trumpeter David Weiss may be a bit confused when they take a look at this album.
