Kayle Brecher: Spirals And Lines

Read "Spirals And Lines" reviewed by Hrayr Attarian


Kaylé Brecher's 2012 Spirals and Lines is a brass-rich, dramatic exploration of the vocalist, arranger and composer's various influences, with an understated yet solid political and social leitmotif.A delightfully original trio interprets singer/songwriter Bob Dylan's “Paths of Victory" as a New Orleans-style marche.

David Dzubinski: Recyclical

Read "Recyclical" reviewed by Todd S. Jenkins


This marvelous debut recording reveals David Dzubinski as one of the most uniquely creative, introspective pianists on the contemporary Pennsylvania scene.
