Slow Poke: At Home
by Troy Collins
Slow Poke was a unique band, even among the fertile late nineties Downtown (New York) scene. Gradually warming to neo-classical formalism, various Downtown line-ups began incorporating traditional elements into their compositions, progressively moving beyond their No Wave roots by embracing a more traditional aesthetic. Blending accessible tunefulness with adventurous improvisation, ensembles like Ballin' The Jack, The ...
Marty Ehrlich / Myra Melford: Spark!
by Matthew Miller
Multi-reedist Marty Ehrlich and pianist Myra Melford share more than a virtuosic touch and rugged lyricism. Their work embodies a single-minded approach to duo playing that lends an air of cohesion to the most abstract improvisation, allowing their ideas to blend to the point where Ehrlich's tone becomes a growling, vibrato-laden extension of Melford's sensitive voicings ...

Bill Mays: Fantasy
by Ralph A. Miriello
For those who have never seriously incorporated classical music in their musical diet, Fantasy, the new crossover album from pianist Bill Mays, trumpeter extraordinaire Marvin Stamm and cellist Alisa Horn, collectively known as The Inventions Trio, is a good starting point for some exposure to classical pieces rendered with a sensibility toward improvisation. Mays, ...

by Dr. Judith Schlesinger

These two have done it all, including duos and trios and quartets and quintets; big bands and studio work and TV and movies. They've also been friends for much of it, and aside from all the innovation and superb playing ...
Javon Jackson: Now
by Jim Santella
As a member of drummer Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, tenor saxophonist Javon Jackson learned what it takes to create good music. One of the most influential teachers for several generations, Blakey stressed the importance of finding your groove and sticking to it. He demanded that each of his Messengers step up and take the bull by ...
Fred Hersch Trio: Night And The Music
by AAJ Italy Staff
Grazie all’attività meritoria di label indipendenti come la Palmetto, Fred Hersch continua da qualche anno ad incidere con puntuale regolarità. Una discografia la sua che si sta facendo anno dopo anno sempre più corposa, ancorché contrassegnata dall’alto livello di creatività. Eppure - incredibilmente - il pianista statunitense incarna ancora la tipica figura di musician’s musician: artista ...
Matt Wilson's Arts And Crafts: The Scenic Route
by AAJ Italy Staff
Jazz piacevole e godibile, ma discontinuo negli esiti e con qualche caduta di gusto. Si potrebbe sintetizzare così la più recente produzione discografica del pur eccellente batterista Matt Wilson: solista notevole ma arrangiatore non molto fantasioso. Alti ma anche bassi in questo percorso, a tratti ben congegnato dal leader con piglio sicuro e la disinvoltura da ...
Javon Jackson: Now
by John Barron
Audiences who first came to know Javon Jackson through his recordings for Criss Cross and Blue Note shouldn't be the least bit surprised when the Joe Henderson-inspired tenor saxophonist, who first came to prominence with Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, releases a commercially conscious disc like Now. As with his previous efforts for Palmetto Records, 2003's Easy ...
