Read "Algures" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Bassist, composer, musical director and producer Gili Lopes is nothing if not an astute judge of talent.

Jean-Marc Hebert: L'Origine Eclat​ee

Read "L'Origine Eclat​ee" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan

by Dan McClenaghan

Montreal-based guitarist Jean-Marc Hebert's third album, L'Origine Eclatee, sounds like something out of the ECM Records catalog. He is joined by trumpeter Lex French, bassist Morgan Moore and drummer Pierre Tanguay, forming a patient, subdued chamber jazz atmosphere that opens the first of the Hebert originals, “La Deteinte." The tune shimmers. Understatement is the plan of ...

Fabio Delvò & Fellows: The Crocodiles Embalsers

Read "The Crocodiles Embalsers" reviewed by Neri Pollastri

by Neri Pollastri

Nuova formazione per il sassofonista Fabio Delvò, un quartetto classico con il quale realizzare la sua musica ora tesa e geometrica, ora più libera e frammentata, sempre comunque inquieta e vibrante. La scelta dei compagni è mirata e felice: l'esperto Giancarlo Tossani, leader di numerosi progetti modernissimi, al pianoforte; Stefano Dallaporta, coinvolto in molti lavori in ...

Mary Halvorson: Cloudward

Read "Cloudward" reviewed by Mike Jurkovic

by Mike Jurkovic

Guitarist, composer & raconteur Mary Halvorson could very comfortably (and rightfully) wear the sobriquet of “The Charles Mingus of Guitar" if she wanted to. But even that open-ended comparison would limit her as she outdoes herself again on Cloudward. Though it must surely be getting harder to top herself given the string of releases--the ...
