Josh Roseman: Reimagining the Constellations
by R.J. DeLuke
Josh Roseman is a busy man. Extremely busy. He's also an extremely bright one, which is good because otherwise one might pause to consider whether, with all those activities, he is wearing himself too thin. Turns out he is spreading wide, but nothing about him or his many pursuits is thin. Especially not his creativity.

Ray Anderson - Marty Ehrlich: Hear You Say - Live in Willisau
by AAJ Italy Staff
Che due artisti come Ray Anderson e Marty Ehrlich avessero molte cose in comune non è certo un gran mistero: incrociatisi più volte nell'arco di una carriera ultra-trentennale, i due musicisti condividono una visione molto ampia del linguaggio afroamericano, visione che hanno deciso di condividere in questo ottimo quartetto completato da una ritmica solida come quella ...
Anthony Braxton: Creative Orchestra (Koln) 1978
by Jeff Stockton
Jazz is often viewed as a progressive art form, one that by its very nature is constantly changing and reinventing itself. The paradox is that change isn't always what the audience wants to hear, so it frequently takes awhile simply to catch up. Such seems to be the case with the music of Anthony Braxton, one ...
Daniel Blacksberg: Bit Heads
by Clifford Allen
It's somewhat surprising that there aren't too many active trombone/bass/drums power trios around, with the model being strongly set in the late 1970s New York scene by such bands as BassDrumBone (trombonist Ray Anderson, drummer Gerry Hemingway, bassist Mark Helias) and the comparable, albeit freer group Brahma, with drummer Barry Altschul. The lack of current 'bone-heavy ...

Anthony Braxton: Creative Orchestra (Koln) 1978
by Troy Collins
The 1970s were an exceedingly fertile time period for composer Anthony Braxton, whose considerable output was primarily documented by Arista Records, including his Creative Orchestra Music, which encapsulated the entire history of jazz--from Scott Joplin to Albert Ayler. One of these albums, the seminal Creative Orchestra Music 1976, was recently reissued as part of Mosaic Records' ...
Nick La Riviere: Too Much To Do
by Raul d'Gama Rose
The warmth of the trombone as a brass instrument is astounding. Masters of the instrument such as Roswell Rudd, Slide Hampton, Steve Turre, Ray Anderson and Papo Vazquez give this wondrous instrument a near-human voice using smears and growls, groans and sighs. Canada is suddenly becoming a breeding ground for fine young instrumentalists who are adding ...
