Metheny Mehldau: Quartet
by Nenad Georgievski
Distinguished musicians playing and recording together tells you that the sky will be the limit for its potential. The collaboration between guitarist Pat Metheny and piano prodigy Brad Mehldau was so fruitful that the initial session that gave us the brilliant Mehldau/Metheny duo album, also produced Quartet, with Mehldau's standard Trio joining forces. ...
Metheny Mehldau: Quartet
by John Kelman
In many ways Quartet--the second disc culled from the December, 2005 collaboration between iconic guitarist Pat Metheny and the younger but increasingly influential pianist Brad Mehldau--is the record that Pat Metheny Group's final Geffen album, 1996's Quartet, should have been. While the Metheny Group record had its charms, it was the closest thing to a contractual ...
Metheny Mehldau: Quartet
by Stephen Wood
One sure sign of musicianship is adaptability. And it is precisely because Pat Metheny and Brad Mehldau possess this very quality that Quartet is so captivating. I find it hard to imagine how a pair of musicians could deliver such a subtly different mood in their second release than in their first. But the guitarist and ...

Billy Hart: Quartet
by John Kelman
In a decades-long career that's seen him on hundreds of albums with everyone from Herbie Hancock to Pat Martino, Billy Hart has released only a handful of records as a leader. That may go some way towards explaining why he doesn't have the same cachet with the larger listening public as drummers like Jack DeJohnette. Still, ...
Billy Hart: Quartet
by Mark F. Turner
While Elvin Jones and Tony Williams might be more noted names, Billy Hart is still a drummer for the ages, with over 500 appearances on record and a list of credits that includes Shirley Horn and Wes Montgomery, as well as recent recordings by Mimi Fox (Perpetually Hip) and the Mary Lou Williams Collective (Zodiac Suite: ...
Larry Goldings: Quartet
by John Kelman
Because he's placed so much emphasis on the organ in recent years--most notably his ongoing trio with guitarist Peter Bernstein and drummer Bill Stewart--it's easy to forget just how good a pianist Larry Goldings can be. Even though the two instruments share similar configurations, it's not inherently easy to transfer skills from one to the other. ...
Larry Goldings: Quartet
by David Miller
In the span of his relatively young career, Larry Goldings has run the gamut of styles from mainstream jazz to R&B, sonic explorations, and pop. With Quartet, he stays for the most part within the mainstream. But even within that mode, the record is unusual and unique for the eclectic blend of Goldings' interests and influences. ...
Larry Goldings: Quartet
by Jim Santella
Pianist Larry Goldings delivers modern jazz as true art, folding in classical music with traditional jazz themes and interpreting them sincerely. With trumpeter John Sneider, his quartet expresses soulful melodies and surrounds them with beautiful textures. Everything falls into place naturally, and the pianist ensures that not one ounce is wasted on glamour or glitz.
