Silvano Monasterios: Unconditional
by Greg Simmons
Miami pianist Silvano Monasterios' Unconditional doesn't announce its qualities with musical histrionics: it's far subtler than that. This collection of eight original tunes shows craftsmanship, fine improvisation and coherence. Monasterios has constructed a compelling musical statement with an emphasis on composition and attention to detail. This is an entire album, not simply a collection of songs. ...
Jim Snidero: Interface
by Dan Bilawsky
The digital age has completely changed the way language is used. People talk about “googling" things, discovering new “apps," and “friending people" all the time, so it wouldn't be surprising if the word “interface" eventually replaces “communication" in common, everyday conversations.

Interface finds Snidero back in a straight-ahead frame of mind, teamed, for his ...

First, Monk's compositions are, indeed, challenging, in ...
Jerry Bergonzi: Convergence
by Greg Simmons
Saxophonist Jerry Bergonzi has become one of the most reliable recording artists in jazz. In between his day job as a Berklee College of Music professor, and performing, he turns out a great album or two every year.
