Marc Ribot Trio: Live At The Village Vanguard
by Dan Bilawsky
Playing and recording at New York's Village Vanguard is often seen as a sign of ascendancy in the jazz world. For some, the honor is bestowed early on; for others, it comes at a more mature stage; and for a third group, it comes even further down the road. Guitarist Marc Ribot is part of that ...
Marc Ribot Trio: Live At The Village Vanguard
by Mark Corroto
It had been 16,631 days since bassist Henry Grimes had last played music at New York's infamous Village Vanguard.

Vijay Iyer--who, over the past 20 years, has built a reputation for genre-defying, forward-reaching music--spent the early part of his career on independent US labels including the highly regarded Pi Recordings, Savoy Jazz and Sunnyside Records. But it was ...
Amir ElSaffar: Alchemy
by Maurizio Zerbo
Segnatevi questo nome perché Amir ElSaffar è destinato a fare grandi cose. Sull'esempio di Charles Tolliver e Woody Shaw omaggiati nella postbopppistica “Athar Kurd," il trombettista statunitense di origini irachene vanta un timbro caldo ed avvolgente. Il suo magniloquente solismo è qui sostenuto da una originale progettualità rivolta ad integrare le tecniche modali arabe nel mondo ...
