John Geggie: Unexpected Conversations

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.

Michael Bates: Live In New York
by Lyn Horton
Prevalent in the musical ethic of Michael Bates is a masterful balance of instrumental and compositional elements. Live in New York is Bates' group Outside Sources--Russ Johnson (trumpet), Quinsin Nachoff (saxophone and clarinet) and drummer Jeff Davis --documented at a Fall 2008 Cornelia Street Café gig.

Quinsin Nachoff - Bruno Tocanne Project: 5 New Dreams
by Glenn Astarita
Had this CD been received in 2008, it would surely have made my personal top-ten list.

Quinsin Nachoff: Horizons Ensemble

The two streams, reflected in his compositions, entwine and flow majestically on his self-released Horizons Ensemble. His players rise to meet ...
Quinsin Nachoff: Horizons Ensemble
by Troy Collins
Horizons Ensemble is the sublime follow-up to Quinsin Nachoff's stellar Songlines debut Magic Numbers (2006). The Canadian-born, New York-based saxophonist continues to explore neo-classical territory initiated by the Third Stream Movement with a series of extended compositions that skirt a tenuous line between the written and the composed. Magic Numbers featured a trio with ...
Composer Quinsin Nachoff Jazzed up for New York Trip
The coming year promises to be a very good one for local saxophonist and composer Quinsin Nachoff. The musician was recently awarded a $35,000 Ontario Arts Council Chalmers grant to spend a year immersed in New York's bustling jazz community. That news would be a boon for any performer, but it is particularly welcome for Nachoff, ...
