Joshua Redman & Brad Mehldau: Nearness
by Doug Collette
Brilliant musicians don't always make brilliant music when they collaborate and while that's sometimes been the case with pianist Brad Mehldau and saxophonist Joshua Redman, on the duo concert recordings that make up the appropriately-titled Nearness, they live up to their elevated pedigree. And that's individual as well as shared cachet: Mehldau spent a fair amount ...
Mariza: Mundo
by Nenad Georgievski
Even if you don't understand a word of Portuguese, the enormity of Mariza's gift is immediately and intoxicatingly evident upon first hearing. Armed with an alluring voice and arresting charismatic presence, Mariza is one of the great exponents of the Portuguese fado music and much more than that. Arriving several years after her strictly traditional take ...

Allen Toussaint: American Tunes
by Jakob Baekgaard
The mighty river of American songs flows in many different directions: blues, gospel, jazz and funk are part of the muddy water that makes up the music. Pianist, composer, arranger and record producer, Allen Toussaint, who sadly passed away in 2015, was an important part of the ongoing legacy of American music. He ...
Cuong Vu Trio: Meets Pat Metheny
by Luca Muchetti
Vien quasi da sorridere. Il nuovo album sulla cui copertina spicca il nome di Pat Metheny è intitolato semplicemente Cuong Vu Trio meets Pat Metheny. E il motivo del mezzo sorriso che si stampa sul volto è duplice: non solo i cultori del chitarrista del Missouri sapranno bene che Cuong Vu è il trombettista che da ...
Brad Mehldau Trio: Blues and Ballads
by Dan McClenaghan
Call Brad Mehldau's Blues and Ballads the pianist's “Every Man Set." There has been, from the beginning of Mehldau's career, a sense of the cerebral in his approach, with its classical music influences and his deep technical virtuosity. Throw the sometimes dense and erudite writing for selected liner notes (mostly earlier in his career) ...
Pat Metheny: The Unity Sessions
by Mario Calvitti
Il live in studio voluto da Pat Metheny per documentare il livello raggiunto dal gruppo nel corso del lungo tour mondiale che ha toccato 150 città vede ora la luce nella versione solo audio, dopo essere già stato pubblicato qualche mese fa come DVD/Blu Ray Disc. L'innesto del polistrumentista italiano Giulio Carmassi è bastato a trasformare ...
Allen Toussaint: American Tunes
by Mike Jacobs
When it comes to the New Orleans sound and its purveyors, drummers may be the most integral, but the most celebrated are perhaps the pianists. Longhair, Booker, Rebbenack, Cleary, and even Fats Domino are all acknowledged to be in that pantheon. And certainly the name Toussaint has long been counted among them as well but, outside ...
Cuong Vu/Pat Metheny: Cuong Vu Trio Meets Pat Metheny
by Karl Ackermann
Vietnamese trumpeter Cuong Vu has been a frequent Pat Metheny collaborator dating back to the guitarist's Speaking Of Now (Warner Bros., 2002). It has taken well over a decade for Vu to flip the table, putting Metheny in a role he is seldom seen in, that of a sideman. In fact, across almost fifty albums, the ...
Cuong Vu Trio With Pat Metheny: Cuong Vu Trio Meets Pat Metheny
by Dan McClenaghan
One of the most distinctive jazz sounds to have appeared this millennium has been shaped by Cuong Vu. Beginning with his It's Mostly Residual (ArtistShare, 2005) through Vu-Tet (ArtistShare, 2007) and into Leaps of Faith, (Origin Records 2011), the modernistic and often plugged-in trumpeter has crafted an assault of sound: a thick, sludgy, glow-in-the-dark, pugnaciously percussive ...
