Autumn Arcade in Gotham's Jazz Scene
by Nick Catalano
Each fall things get busier in New York for jazz writers, which fortunately is a sign that there's more work for musicians. There are more openings, more CD releases, more press releases and more musicians arriving every year from everywhere. Although jazz remains a hard sell with no less struggling on the part of performers, the ...
Kalaparush McIntyre: Extremes
by John Sharpe
With a relatively small number of recordings in his own right over a 40-year career, any release from AACM veteran Kalaparush Maurice McIntyre is cause for celebration. His fourth outing for the CIMP label showcases a new quartet featuring the even-more-underexposed Will Connell (alto saxophone and bass clarinet), longtime associate Michael Logan (bass) and childhood friend, ...

Joe Fonda / Carlo Morena / George Schuller: A Drop Of Water
by Robert Iannapollo
The rhythm team of bassist Joe Fonda and drummer George Schuller has proven to be a particularly potent one. Their work as half of Conference Call (alongside reed player Gebhard Ullmann and pianist Michael Jefry Stevens) gives that band both compositional and improvisational strength. The same holds true in guitarist Michael Musillami's trio, where they take ...
Donny McCaslin: Recommended Tools
by Tom Greenland
Recommended Tools, saxophonist Donny McCaslin's seventh session as a leader and his first for Dave Douglas' Greenleaf Music, follows in the tenor trio tradition of Sonny Rollins' A Night at the Village Vanguard and Joe Henderson's The State of the Tenor. Going chordless, without the safety-net of a comping instrument, gives the frontline instrumentalist more latitude ...
Ralph Lalama Quartet: Energy Fields
by Jim Santella
An exciting band with a firm melodic grasp, Ralph Lalama's quartet pours over musical themes with emphasis, as accents fall into place with angular motion and improvised forays push forcefully. The leader's suave tenor, John Hart's sultry guitar, Rick Petrone's driving acoustic bass and drummer Joe Corsello's rhythmic thunder combine gracefully to shape each tone poem ...
