Sam Sadigursky: Follow The Stick

by Budd Kopman
After spending nearly ten years with the four Words Project albums (see here, here and here for three of them), reedman and multi-instrumentalist Sam Sadigursky has decided to concentrate on clarinet, returning to purely instrumental music with Follow The Stick. Starting initially with a trio comprised of pianist Bobby Avey (who work with Dave ...
Frank Kimbrough on Newvelle: Meantime

by C. Andrew Hovan
With the resurgence of the LP being what it is today, it should come as no surprise that some entrepreneur would decide to establish a subscription series solely devoted to music pressed on vinyl. In an era of grassroots projects and self-starters, the time had come for such a project, a point not lost on musician ...
Noah Preminger: Dark Was The Night, Cold Was The Ground

by Mark Corroto
Saxophonist Noah Preminger got this backwards. His latest release, Dark Was The Night, Cold Was The Ground should have preceded the 2015 recording Pivot: Live At The 55 Bar. Same quartet of trumpeter Jason Palmer, bassist Kim Cass, and drummer Ian Froman. Same theme, the Delta Blues. The reverse order observation is a historical one. Where ...
Noah Preminger: Dark Was the Night, Cold Was the Ground

by James Nadal
The Delta Blues, spawned from the callous conditions on Mississippi plantations and farmlands, is an artistic manifestation that creativity can overcome, survive, and thrive, amidst overwhelming situations. These sparse, rural blues, which came out of the fields so long ago, continue to influence contemporary musicians seeking a raw form of expression. Count saxophonist Noah Preminger among ...
Rob Garcia: Finding Love in an Oligarchy on a Dying Planet

by Franz A. Matzner
A complex amalgam, drummer-composer Rob Garcia's Finding Love in an Oligarchy on a Dying Planetis as densely constructed and provoking as its title. Despite the socially conscious themes that its track titles, lyrics, and multi-layered musical journeys explore, Garcia has made clear this is not a protest album. At least not in the typical sense.

Noah Preminger: Pivot: Live At The 55 Bar

by Budd Kopman
The first thing that should be said about tenor saxophonist Noah Preminger's Pivot: Live At The 55 Bar is the extremely exciting you-are-there feeling of the recording. Recording engineer Jimmy Katz has managed to capture the sound and visceral feel of a jazz quartet in full cry with no net. Many jazz listeners can remember a ...
Jazz Quanta March — Five Pianos: Marc Copland, Bill Stewart, Julian Shore, Bob Wijnen, Pablo Held

Okay, Okay...OKAY! Bill Stewart is not a pianist, but his long-time collaborator Bill Carrothers is, so, LAY OFF! Marc Copland Zenith Inner Voice Jazz 2015 Pianist Marc Copland composes with a certain use of darkness, an updated musical version of Caravaggio's use of chiaroscuro in painting. ...
Noah Preminger: Pivot: Live at the 55 Bar

by Alberto Bazzurro
Non ancora varcata la soglia dei trent'anni (ciò che accadrà il prossimo 2 giugno), il tenorsassofonista newyorchese Noah Preminger, allievo di Dave Liebman, firma con Pivot: Live at the 55 Bar quello che è già il quinto album a suo nome. Lo alimentano due soli brani (singolarmente entrambi tratti dal songbook del bluesman Bukka White) di ...
Julian Shore: Which Way Now?

by Dan Bilawsky
If the jazz world decided to elect a single questioning phrase to sum up its craft, this album title would be a great candidate. With three words and a single punctuation mark, the very heart of jazz--a music of infinite decision(s), not indecision, as some may (mis)read that--is laid out for all to see. Those who ...
