The Gauci Trio: We're Comin' Just One Time
by Brian P. Lonergan
This trio recording led by tenor saxophonist Stephen Gauci comes across as a fifty-minute suite of nearly free jazz, rather than eight tracks with their own distinct personalities. Gauci's self-penned liner notes are a good reflection of the music--esoteric and a bit circular, conveying some interesting perspectives on the nature of freedom and form in improvisation, ...

Mighty Quinn Records
by Donald Elfman
It is almost a truism that anyone who ever got into the jazz record business did it for the love of the music.

Slava Ganelin / Ned Rothenberg: Falling Into Place
by AAJ Staff
The Ganelin Trio--probably the most recognized group of the Russian jazz scene during the last decade of the USSR--was officially disbanded at the end of the '80s. Both saxophonist Vladimir Chekasin and percussionist Vladimir Tarasov remained in now-independent Lithuania, keeping themselves busy in different projects mostly in Europe, while pianist Vyacheslav (Slava) Ganelin moved to Israel, ...
Kris Davis: The Slightest Shift
by Brian P. Lonergan
The adjective that comes to mind again and again when listening to this quartet recording by pianist and composer Kris Davis is “refreshing. Much of The Slightest Shift sounds close to free improvisation, but there is also a recurring sense that one is listening to a modern chamber music ensemble. And the initial impression of at ...
