Marcio Garcia: Forest
by Dan McClenaghan
Debut records are a treat when the artist has the goods, doesn't overreach and try to show off everything he can do, which is the case with Marcio Garcia's Forest. Pianist Garcia—born in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, and now based in New York City—offers up this, his first recording, a mostly trio affair which reveals an ...

Dan Banks Quintet: Simulated Cities
by Jack Bowers
Simulated Cities, the second recording by British pianist Dan Banks' well-schooled quintet, consists of seven original compositions by the leader, the bulk of which call to mind the storied hard-bop conclaves of the mid 20th century while enwrapping the music in an up-to-date wardrobe tailored to accommodate today's more sophisticated and savvy audiences. Once past the ...
Gabrielle Stravelli: Pick Up My Pieces: Gabrielle Stravelli Sings Willie Nelson
by Dan Bilawsky
To say that Willie Nelson has been directly influenced by jazz is to state the obvious. Listen to the ever-reliable Stardust (Columbia, 1978) or check out any number of his latter-day releases--American Classic (Blue Note, 2009), Summertime: Willie Nelson Sings Gershwin (Sony, 2016), My Way (Sony, 2018)--to experience that truth in repertoire; give his meeting with ...

by Geno Thackara
The band may have been fictional, but the music is all real—and turns out to have an impressive staying power, even today. If you associate the name Spinal Tap with cheesy 1980s rock and roll, it's time to think again. The members of the London Ontological Orchestra are stars well-known in the jazz world, though working ...
Mickey Katz: Live at Katz's Deli
by Nicholas F. Mondello
The recent discovery of “lost tapes" by legendary figures such as John Coltrane and Pee Wee Marquette has led to record companies scouring their vaults for unreleased recordings. One such is the discovery and release of Live at Katz's Deli on Gonif Records. The find is resonating on both 52nd and 47th Streets and in the ...
Paul Dietrich Jazz Ensemble (featuring Clarence Penn): Forward
by Troy Dostert
There's something to be said for acknowledging one's artistic debts. It's a trait especially prominent in jazz, where musicians paying tribute to their forebears is commonplace, a way to sustain the tradition and recognize its continual evolution. Trumpeter and composer Paul Dietrich has certainly done that with the debut recording from his large ensemble, Forward. Although ...
Jason Kao Hwang & Burning Bridge: Blood
by John Sharpe
As the follow-up to his Burning Bridge octet's eponymous debut (Innova, 2012), violinist Jason Kao Hwang has created another ambitious and wide-ranging work. As befits the title Blood, it constitutes a personal meditation on weighty subject matter, precipitated by a narrowly-avoided car accident which caused Hwang to consider the wartime experiences of his mother in China. ...
