Memorize the Sky: Memorize the Sky

Read "Memorize the Sky" reviewed by Jim Santella

by Jim Santella

Searching for a cosmic balance, woodwind player Matt Bauder, bassist Zach Wallace and drummer Aaron Siegel spread their improvised music out like the heavens above. Soft as clouds and containing enough space to let their thoughts commingle gradually, the session rides on a feather chariot. Bauder plays tenor saxophone, clarinet and bass clarinet on ...

Charles Davis: Land of Dreams

Read "Land of Dreams" reviewed by Elliott Simon

by Elliott Simon

Davis, with his baritone sax, was part of the seminal Jazz Composer's Orchestra and early groups fronted by ...
