Dena DeRose: Live at Jazz Standard Volume Two

by Donald Elfman
This is the kind of series that could last forever--pianist Dena DeRose seems to have an endless supply of well- and little-known tunes from the collected songbooks and both the music and performances are timeless. The second set from the same evening that produced Volume One (MAXJAZZ, 2007), this has the same in-the-moment sense of place ...
Jeremy Pelt: November

by C. Michael Bailey
In the same way that Roy Hargrove's Earfood (Emarcy, 2008) updated Lee Morgan's Cornbread (Blue Note, 1965), so Jeremy Pelt's November updates Miles Davis' Miles Smiles (Columbia/Legacy, 1966). If creativity and art can be evaluated on both the vertical and horizontal, Morgan's and Davis' offerings represent horizontal progressions of the art of jazz into new areas, ...
Ben Wolfe: No Strangers Here

by Troy Collins
Ever since the seminal Charlie Parker With Strings (Mercury 1950), numerous artists have attempted to add symphonic strings to jazz ensembles. Some have succeeded, but many have failed to capture a proper balance, resulting in string arrangements that sound superfluous. Bassist Ben Wolfe's fifth album, No Strangers Here, is one example of a successful ...

by Ernest Barteldes
Jazz enthusiasts in Salzau, Germany were in for a great treat when New York-based Trio da Paz and vibraphonist Joe Locke had a memorable collaboration at Jazzbaltica in the summer of 2007. Locke fits in with the three longtime Brazilian musical partners quite well in a performance of material from the trio's palette, with the exception ...
Dena DeRose: Live at The Jazz Standard, Volume One

by Donald Elfman
Dena DeRose continues to dazzle in the simplest ways--she's a gifted and accomplished pianist, vocalist, composer and arranger but there's not a speck of self-importance or pretension as she joyously makes her way through new and old tunes. Her voice has the timbre and range of an Anita O'Day but there's a fresh, clear-headed quality here ...
Dena DeRose: Live at The Jazz Standard, Volume One

by C. Michael Bailey
Pianist/vocalist Dena DeRose debuted on MaxJazz in 2005 with her well received A Walk in the Park. Now the label has put her into an appropriate live setting in New York City's Jazz Standard with bassist Martin Wind, uber-drummer Matt Wilson (both on A Walk in the Park), and NYC mainstay saxophonist Joel Frahm blowing through ...
Jeremy Pelt and Wired: Shock Value: Live at Smoke

by AAJ Italy Staff
Jeremy Pelt è un trombettista poco più che trent’enne che si sta facendo largo nella turbolenta scena musicale newyorkese. Questo album registrato dal vivo allo Smoke ne conferma le doti tecniche e la capacità di muoversi guardando bene avanti, senza dimenticare di dare ogni tanto un’occhiata allo specchietto retrovisore. Accompagnato da un torrido Al Street alla ...
