Marc Copland: And I Love Her
by Dan McClenaghan
In any discussion concerning the best of the modern piano trios in jazz, Marc Copland's name has to come up.

Daniel Schläppi / Marc Copland: Alice's Wonderland
by Dan McClenaghan
Alice's Wonderland is the third duo outing from bassist Daniel Schlappi and pianist Marc Copland, following Essentials (Catwalk, 2012) and More Essentials (Catwalk, 2015). Both Copland and Schlappi have carved out their spots as leaders of various sized ensembles, but the leaderless duo outing format seems to fit both instrumentalists well—Copland has teamed with bassist Gary ...

Jeff Lorber: Chemistry in Fusion
by Jim Worsley
I don't know that anyone would confuse Jeff Lorber with a mad scientist, but you know, as they say, if the shoe fits. Lorber is far from mad, so okay, let's take that out of the equation. However, if the art of music can be further developed and shaped by scientific measures then Lorber resembles Albert ...

Paul Bley / Gary Peacock / Paul Motian: When Will The Blues Leave
by Karl Ackermann
Had Paul Bley, Gary Peacock and Paul Motian recorded together more consistently, they would have been considered among the best piano trios in modern jazz history.
