Enrico Rava: To Be Free or Not To Be Free
by Ian Patterson
Freedom, it could be argued, is most deeply understood by those who have been somehow constrained against their will, or who have been prisoners of their own skewed vision of what it means to be free.

Mathias Eick: The Lyrical Dimension
by Adriana Carcu
Norwegian trumpeter/composer Mathias Eick comes from a musical space that, during the last 30 years, has rightfully earned itself the attributes of a genre. The singularity of his tone, marked by the lyrical quality of his phrasing and underlined by a melancholic solemnity, adds a particular note a the Nordic jazz tradition he shares with Jan ...

John Taylor: Requiem for a Dreamer
by John Kelman
It's been three years since John Taylor's last trio disc, but this time the British pianist takes a small detour, rather than continue the winning streak of Angel of the Presence (Cam Jazz, 2006) and Whirlpool (Cam Jazz, 2008).

Hans Ulrik / Benjamin Koppel / Jon Balke / Palle Danielsson / Alex Riel: The Adventures of a Polar Expedition

The Trio (Peter Erskine / Chuck Berghofer / Terry Trotter): Live @ Charlie O's
by John Kelman
Three Los Angeles session men with a massive collective résumé as sidemen but, with the exception of one--drummer Peter Erskine--diminutive discographies as leaders; one set of largely iconic standards; and one live set from a club where the players, called simply “The Trio," perform on a regular basis. Live at Charlie O's is a loving tribute ...
