Jenny Scheinman: Mischief and Mayhem

Read "Mischief and Mayhem" reviewed by Ian Patterson


The title of violinist Jenny Scheinman's sixth album as leader tells much of, but not the whole story. Playful and daring, with memorable melodies rubbing shoulders with arresting improvisations, there's an irresistible freshness and vigor about the music. However, there are more layers to peel away, and great subtlety and lyricism reveal themselves upon each subsequent ...

Jenny Scheinman: Mischief & Mayhem

Read "Mischief & Mayhem" reviewed by Jack Huntley


Violinist Jenny Scheinman's Mischief & Mayhem fires on all cylinders.

The Jeff Gauthier Goatette: Open Source

Read "Open Source" reviewed by Ian Patterson


Open Source would have made a good alternative name for violinist Jeff Gauthier's ensemble, as it draws inspiration from myriad sources. Goatette continues its near twenty-year journey into territory ranging from avant-garde and sci-fi soundscapes, and deep funk grooves colored by searing electric guitar, to an altogether more pastoral melodicism reminiscent of the Mahavishnu Orchestra at ...

Dave Douglas: A Creative Consciousness

Read "Dave Douglas: A Creative Consciousness" reviewed by Dave Wayne


Considering trumpeter Dave Douglas' musical career, one word that comes to mind is “consistency." Sure, he's led a dizzying variety of bands playing in all sorts of styles. Yet, of the 30-odd recordings he's led, not one veers from the central mission of presenting challenging, original jazz. An inveterate musical risk taker, Douglas has always led ...
