Chick Corea: Solo Piano

Read "Chick Corea: Solo Piano" reviewed by John Kelman

Read "Lost In A Dream" reviewed by David McLean


A drummer whose inventive approach to percussion has produced one of the most recognizable and in demand sounds in the pantheon of jazz, Paul Motian's revolutionary playing has seen him approach the kit not as a rhythmic backbone, but as a tool for subtlety and soundscape creation. Lost In A Dream, Motian's set of midnight ballads, ...

Francois Couturier: Un jour si blanc

Read "Un jour si blanc" reviewed by John Kelman

Geggietrio + Donny McCaslin: Across the Sky

Read "Across the Sky" reviewed by John Kelman


With too many musicians releasing albums as leaders before they're ready, Canadian bassist John Geggie is a refreshing alternative. Waiting until his late forties might, in fact, seem a little overcautious for this central figure on the Ottawa scene, but to compensate--and better demonstrate the breadth of his musical interests--he's released two debuts as a leader, ...
