Art Edmaiston & Chad Fowler: Memphis Mandala

Read "Memphis Mandala" reviewed by Glenn Astarita

by Glenn Astarita
April 7, 2026

Recorded live in Memphis, Memphis Mandala is led by Art Edmaiston on tenor and soprano saxophones, alongside Chad Fowler's work on stritch and flute. They are backed by a rhythm section that intuitively knows when to push the accelerator and when to let the engine idle in neutral. The result is collective improvisation--with two drummers--that feels ...

Art Edmaiston / Chad Fowler: Memphis Mandala

Read "Memphis Mandala" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto
March 18, 2026

We often approach recordings as if they were live performances: fully present in the moment, deeply engaged, and then rarely revisited. Like a concert, the sounds drift into the ether, lingering in memory and, perhaps, subtly reshaping the listener's internal landscape. Yet Memphis Mandala, the 2024 live collaboration between saxophonists Art Edmaiston and Chad ...

Josh Rosen: Beneath the Radar

by Steve Plever
September 9, 2025

They say that a college teaching gig has become the new record contract. Pianist Josh Rosen's 30+ years on the Berklee College of Music faculty have indeed made a career in music possible, but the downside is that without record label promotion, few outside of Boston have heard of him.

Several Silent Ways & More

by Bob Osborne
August 7, 2025

The arrival of a new Anthony Wilson album with his interpretation of Joe Zawinul's “In A Silent Way" lead me to dig out other versions--a live rendition by Weather Report plus the two versions from the The Complete In A Silent Way Sessions box set release by Miles Davis. Zawinul's haunting melody is the centrepiece of ...

by Angelo Leonardi
July 21, 2025

Questa collaborazione tra la sassofonista e compositrice Gaia Wilmer e il batterista/bandleader Bob Moses, è stata progettata dieci anni fa, quando i due si sono incontrati al New England Conservatory, nei ruoli di allieva e docente. Il giudizio che Moses esprime in copertina sulle doti di scrittura di Gaia può apparire eccessivo (la paragona ...

by Maurice Hogue
September 9, 2024

After a few shows shortened in length, I had to go back to the old three-hour joint to get all of this terrific music happening. Highlights: the Chicago Afrofuturism of Nicole Mitchell meets the Malian kora legend Ballake Sissoko on Bamako Chicago Sound System; multi-instrumentalist William Parker, drummer Andrew Barker and saxophonist Jon Irabagon cook up ...
