Will Vinson: Planted and Growing in New York
by R.J. DeLuke
Like many musicians of his generation, growing up in the rock-and pop-dominated 1980s, saxophonist Will Vinson got his indoctrination to jazz from the sounds emanating from the stereo system in his home, hearing the likes of Dave Brubeck, Duke Ellington and Count Basie from his father's record collection.

by Nick Catalano
The term “chamber jazz" has risen steadily in prominence in recent years and dealing with its essence is not a simple matter.

Search and Restore Benefit: A Round Robin of Duo Improvisations
by Daniel Lehner
There's an old conundrum about a man with an axe. He broke the head chopping at a particularly stubborn branch and replaced it. Months later, he broke the handle and replaced that. The question goes: Does he have the same axe? It's a philosophical question that deals with how parts interrelate with a whole. Now imagine ...
