by Ian Patterson
Kenny Barron & Dave Holland/The Jeremy Monteiro Trio Queen Elizabeth Hall EFG London Jazz Festival 21 November, 2014 The prospect of Kenny Barron and Dave Holland performing as a duo was a mouthwatering one. Both are well versed in the format. In 1971 Holland combined with Derek Bailey and then ...

Asian Jazz All-Stars Power Quartet Ronnie Scott's EFG London Jazz festival November 20, 2014 One of the most pleasing aspects of the EFG London Jazz Festival is its reach into the many jazz clubs dotted around the capital. Whilst the concert halls host the big names and draw the tourists ...
Nora Germain: Little Dipper
by C. Michael Bailey
Jazz fiddlers are not exactly household renowned. Joe Venuti, Ray Nance, Stephane Grappelli, Michal Urbaniak, Svend Asmussen, Jean-luc Ponty and Regina Carter pop to the forefront, but then the list falls off quickly. Presently there emerges one Nora Germain (a name made to be in lights if there ever was one) who not only fiddles but ...
Regina Carter: Southern Confort
by Maurizio Zerbo
Alla talentuosa violinista statunitense non si può certo negare una volatile progettualità, sempre votata alla esplorazione di diverse tradizioni musicali. Il suo caleidoscopio sonoro ingloba in questo CD sia le matrici afroamericane (blues) che bianche (country, cajun, melodie folk irlandesi) per dar luogo ad un progetto a dir poco irrisolto. Piccolo capolavoro di intrigante rielaborazione della ...
Saying Goodbye to John Blake Jr.
By Suzanne Cloud Sharon Baptist Church boasts a congregation that harkens back to 1934, many years before the church finally found an expansive resting space in West Philadelphia. It's a very big church, but John’s family and friends needed a big one to say goodbye and to wish him well on his journey home. John Blake ...
Dee Alexander: Songs My Mother Loves
by Dan Bilawsky
The maternal influence on a musician should never be underestimated. There's a degree of love, guidance, nurturing and support that only a mother can provide, and plenty of jazz artists have taken the time to express their appreciation for this fact: violinist Regina Carter did so with the touching I'll Be Seeing You: A Sentimental Journey ...
Tom Chang: Tongue and Groove
by Mark Corroto
When did the ultimate compliment for a jazz performance switch from “you swing, cat" to “you rock, dude"? Perhaps it happened after a generation of jazz artists raised on rock-n-roll found their way into improvisation and the latitudes of expression that jazz enable. Case in point is Tongue And Groove by guitarist Tom Chang.
Suoni delle Dolomiti - XX Edizione
by Paolo Peviani
Regina Carter--Dave Douglas Mountainside Trentino, 15-16.07.2014 “All'aperto si gioca a bocce". Così rispose, ad un giornalista che gli aveva chiesto cosa pensasse della musica all'aperto, il grande Arturo Toscanini. Altri tempi. Fosse nato un secolo dopo, e avesse assistito a qualche concerto dei Suoni delle Dolomiti, probabilmente il Maestro avrebbe risposto diversamente. ...
Jiyoung Lee: Snobs, Addicts & Royalty
by Ian Patterson
Jiyoung Lee, pianist/keyboardist and leader of Korean jazz-funk sextet Jazz Snobs Funk Addicts probably has to pinch herself from time to time. Encouraged from a young age by her parents to pursue a life as a classical pianist, Lee instead opted for the greater expressive freedom--and the economic uncertainty-- offered by jazz. Her journey so far ...
Regina Carter: Southern Comfort
by Dan Bilawsky
Violinist Regina Carter's debut for Sony Masterworks finds her knee-deep in history once again. Carter has become something of a genre-blind and stylistically-inclusive musicologist, marrying her violin, family history and more to music of various shapes and origins. She paid tribute to the dark lord of the violin on Paganini: After A Dream ...
