Quinsin Nachoff: Flux

Read "Flux" reviewed by Glenn Astarita

Rounded out by heralded modern era musicians, saxophonist David Binney, keyboardist Matt Mitchell and drummer Kenny Wolleson, the band erects a cunning bridge between structured and melodic thematic ventures with traditional jazz values and free-flowing ...

Quinsin Nachoff: Flux

Read "Flux" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Listening to Flux by saxophonist Quinsin Nachoff, it's easy to see in your mind's eye the DNA double helix beautifully spinning in the dark space of the human cell. That's because Nachoff composes tight, complex chamber pieces, seemingly delicate in structure, but able to withstand the attack of the jazz infantry. Nachoff's training and ...

Quinsin Nachoff: Flux

Read "Flux" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


Saxophonist Quinsin Nachoff sounds right at home on Mythology Records--saxophonist/producer/provocateur David Binney's label.

Flux is Nachoff's debut on ...

In Ottawa, Canada, bassist John Geggie has been one of those significant focal points for two decades, but in particular over the past ten years.

Quinsin Nachoff - Bruno Tocanne Project: 5 New Dreams

Read "5 New Dreams" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


Had this CD been received in 2008, it would surely have made my personal top-ten list. Canadian reed man Quinsin Nachoff aligns with French modern jazz artists, including the co-leader and drummer Bruno Tocanne. Sans a bassist, the four-man horns section generates an excitable string of musical notions, sparked with adventurous shifts in strategy. As Tocanne's ...
