Jeff Cosgrove: Alternating Current
by Ian Patterson
"Playing music is like doing heart surgery," bassist William Parker told interviewer Radhika Philiip in Being Here: Conversations on Creating Music (Radio.org, 2013). “Every time you hit a note, someone's life is on the line, and so you can't fool around." Serious intent and intense focus are the cornerstones of these playful dialogues between ...
Vision Festival 19 Has The Matthew Shipp Trio In The Thick Of It
In many ways, Saturday is a miniature of the entire guiding outlook and purpose of this annual love labor from Arts For Art.

Jeff Cosgrove: Alternating Current
by Harry S. Pariser
Drummer Jeff Cosgrove's new CD “Alternating Current" is an endeavor built around the composition “Victoria," by the late drummer Paul Motian. Motian first came to prominence in the mid-1950s in the piano trio of Bill Evans, and later led several groups. Motian played an important role in freeing jazz drummers from strict time-keeping duties. For this ...
Jeff Cosgrove: Alternating Current
by Angelo Leonardi

Jeff Cosgrove: Alternating Current
by Dan Bilawsky
The recipe for this album could be detailed as such: start with one inventive drummer, add two interconnected masters of wholly improvised music, throw a composition from Paul Motian into the pot, and let it all stir itself. Drummer Jeff Cosgrove's fascination with the music of Motian isn't a secret. As the man ...
