Dave Liebman & Richie Beirach: Eternal Voices
by Roger Farbey
Dave Liebman and Richie Beirach have known each other for half a century and this double album is a celebration of their friendship. They've recorded together during this period in varying configurations.

Richie Beirach-Gregor Huebner Duo and the WDR Big Band: Crossing Borders
by Jack Bowers
The “borders" that are earmarked to be crossed in this new album by pianist Richie Bierach, violinist Gregor Huebner and Germany's superb WDR Big Band are both geographic and musical. The collaborative effort is intended, on the one hand, to bridge the gap between people of various ethnicities and backgrounds and help bring them together, and, ...
Richie Beirach-Gregor Huebner Duo & The WDR Big Band: Crossing Borders
by Dan Bilawsky
Richie Beirach, Gregor Huebner and the WDR Big Band. Now there's a triumvirate that speaks to enormity and nonconformity. On Crossing Borders, the revered pianist, the style-skirting violinist and the boundary-pushing large ensemble join forces for a program that's both crafty and dynamic, playing to past glories and present tense all at once. Tied to no ...
Dave Liebman: Archives and Improvisations - The Past and the Now of a Life in Jazz
by Victor L. Schermer
Prolific saxophonist, composer, band leader, and educator Dave Liebman is a living legend, an NEA Jazz Master who has been making waves since the 1970s and never stops growing, learning, and discovering. His autobiography, What It Is (Scarecrow Press, 2012, with Lewis Porter) is an honest probing of his more than half century experience as a ...
Chet Baker: Live In London Volume II
by Roger Farbey
Somewhat incredibly, these sessions from 1983 were recorded on a domestic audio cassette recorder. The John Horler Trio was employed to back Chet Baker on his six consecutive nights at The Canteen in London, a short-lived jazz venue in the heart of the City. Jim Richardson, bassist on these dates, gained Baker's permission to record these ...

Ten Men
by C. Michael Bailey
My unscientific estimate contends that there are three female vocalists for every male vocalist. This does not mean that there are no male vocalists out there as evidenced by these ten examples. They just take a little longer to accumulate. Jay Leonhart and Tomoko Ohno Don't You Wish Chancellor Music

Joachim Kuhn: Love & Peace
by Karl Ackermann
The German ACT label achieved global recognition when they issued the Esbjorn Svensson Trio album Viaticum (2005) and they warrant broader discovery by U.S. jazz fans. Though their country's best known label casts a global shadow over its competition, the ACT catalog has included Richie Beirach, Lars Danielsson, Vijay Iyer, Manu Katche, Rudresh Mahanthappa, Bugge Wesseltoft, ...
Bardoscia - Alborada - Marcotulli: Trigono
by Neri Pollastri
Elegante lavoro tra il jazz e la classica, Trigono rimanda nel titolo alla atipica formazione, che potremmo definire un “trio plurale," visto che i protagonisti sono Marco Bardoscia, Rita Marcotulli e, come terzo vertice, il quartetto d'archi Alborada. Il programma proposto è accattivante, con musiche per lo più originali sempre di immediato appeal, grazie ...
