Ryan Keberle & Collectiv do Brasil: Choro das Aguas

Read "Choro das Aguas" reviewed by Katchie Cartwright

His father Dan, a university jazz director, encouraged him to pick up the trombone at 10, for the sensible reason that he always seemed to be short a trombonist in his ensembles. ...

Lucian Ban: Following Bartók's Trail Through the Transylvanian Villages

Read "Lucian Ban: Following Bartók's Trail Through the Transylvanian Villages" reviewed by Dean Nardi

Gravity and Resurgence: The Many Dimensions of Dexter Gordon

Read "Gravity and Resurgence: The Many Dimensions of Dexter Gordon" reviewed by Arthur R George
