Jacques Pellarin Trio: Sound of Philadelphia
by Raul d'Gama Rose
Sound of Philadelphia is not a novelty record--one that some critics might dismiss as world music. Jacques Pellarin's music is inflected with myriad cultural influences, so this rather empty epithet is likely to be used on the composer. This labeling is especially tough on an artist who is as seriously talented as the French/Basque musician. Pellarin ...
Renaud Garcia-Fons: La Linea del Sur
by Raul d'Gama Rose
What would happen if the dense yet lyrical imagery of Garcia Lorca's Romancero Gitano was woven into the aural tapestry of bassist Renaud Garcia-Fons' offering, that traverses Europe, the Mediterranean, the Middle East and America? A bewitching mix of flamenco, Arabic, jazz and Latin-American music would collide, resulting in a perfect offering such as La Linea ...

Renaud Garcia-Fons Trio: Arcoluz
by Jerry D'Souza
Renaud Garcia-Fons brings a rare passion and understanding to the bass. His approach is pure genius, seen in the way he styles his pizzicato and in the manner he opens the arco to encompass melodic and improvisatory richness. Garcia-Fons began playing the bass when he was 16, gravitating to the instrument from ...
Arcoluz
