The young, Montreal-based pianist appears here as an almost childlike water sprite, a naiad, who sometimes mixes fun with erudition too. This is a perfect persona for the metaphor that is brought to fruition as it rushes and ...

Chantale Gagné: Wisdom Of The Water

Read "Wisdom Of The Water" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

Perhaps, it was with this in mind that nature endowed water with a certain degree of logic in motion. Water often flows ever-forward ...

Read "Double Portrait" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

Anat Cohen: Clarinetwork: Live at the Village Vanguard

Make no mistake about it, she is a jazz singer through and through, but one who pushes the genre's boundaries.
