Marty Ehrlich: News On The Rail
by Joel Roberts
Multi-reedist Marty Ehrlich can always be counted on to make thoughtful, provocative music on the modern-creative end of the jazz spectrum. His last album (The Long View, 2003) featured an extended large-group composition inspired by the work of painter Oliver Jackson. News On The Rail is a somewhat less abstract effort comprising eight new tunes written ...
Bill Mays Trio: Live at Jazz Standard
by Ken Franckling
After six years together, pianist Bill Mays, bassist Martin Wind, and drummer Matt Wilson decided to record in the setting where most musicians say magic really happens: feeding off the energy of a live audience. This disc was recorded over three nights last December at New York's Jazz Standard. Mays is one of ...
Marty Ehrlich: News on the Rail
by David Miller
Jazz is a big word. And the jazz world is a big world. In an independent study of mine, I am trying to define just how big that world is. But that's the thing. It's boundless. And not only is it boundless, but musicians are constantly exploring new frontiers, trying things that haven't been tried before. ...
Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra: Don't Be Afraid... The Music of Charles Mingus
by Jack Bowers
With the Mingus Big Band keeping the music of its namesake alive and flourishing, the question arises, is there a need for another band to canvass the same territory? Apparently the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra believes so, hence its newest album, Don't Be Afraid... The Music of Charles Mingus. Well, some of the music anyway, as ...
Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra: Don't Be Afraid... The Music of Charles Mingus
by Jim Santella
Six compositions by Charles Mingus give the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra something different to work with. The swing is still there, but each piece echoes with the emotional strength and ferocity that its composer espoused through his ensembles. As with the original, you get a powerful bass line that leads the way, and you get thrilling ...
Ted Nash: La Espada De La Noche
by Budd Kopman
The first thing you notice on “A Night in Tunisia, which opens the wonderful La Espada De La Noche, is the accordion, which is not the most heavily used instrument in jazz, to say the least. The next thing is Ted Nash's beautiful, soft, caressing sax sound, followed by the “full band, which excludes a bassist ...
Bill Mays Trio: Live at Jazz Standard
by John Kelman
Pianist Bill Mays, now in his early sixties, is proof positive that aging needn't necessarily imply either slowing down or settling into a comfort zone. He has been an active collaborator with artists like Bud Shank (with whom he performed at this year's Ottawa International Jazz Festival), Shirley Horn, and Gerry Mulligan, but he's also established ...
Afro-Latin Jazz Orchestra with Arturo O'Farrill: Una Noche Inolvidable
by Robert R. Calder
The Lincoln Center's Latin jazz big band shows off its paces on the opening “Havana Special," the first of only two instrumentals on Una Noche Inolvidable. Of the following three categories--Latin jazz, jazz-influenced Latin music, and jazzless Latin music--the third's absent here, and the second dominates. With guest singing appearances by Herman Olivera and ...
