by Dan McClenaghan
Born in Seoul, the now-Montreal-based pianist Min Rager made the move to the west to attain a jazz education, landing at the Schulich School of Music at McGill University, where she now teaches.

Eyal Vilner Big Band: Hanukkah
by Jack Bowers
Although a goodly number of seasonal big-band albums have passed through these portals over the years, this is the first one to our recollection devoted to Hanukkah, the eight-day-long festival of lights that commemorates the rededication of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem during the time of a successful Maccabean revolt against the Seleucid Empire. As leader ...
Gregg Belisle-Chi: I Sang To You And The Moon
by Angelo Leonardi
Vengono da Seattle e hanno meno di trent'anni i componenti di questo quartetto dalla fisionomia singolare: una cantante accompagnata da chitarra, tromba e contrabbasso. Come si può intuire dall'organico, il clima è cameristico e l'intimismo folk delle musiche di Gregg Belisle-Chi impregna tutto l'album. Anche se è scritto in caratteri microscopici sul retrocopertina, il chitarrista ha ...

The music therein is Au's personal vision transformed into a set of sounds with a continuity of purpose. A rarity for a young artist. Au says she ...

by Karl Ackermann
Saxophonist David Bindman reconvenes the ensemble that created Sunset Park Polyphony (Self Produced, 2012) for the eclectic Ten Billion Versions of Reality. Bindman had spent parts of two recent years in the upstate New York town of Cambridge, developing a suite that is meant to weave together varying perspectives across multiple sound surfaces. The title, in ...
Ian Brighton & Henry Kaiser: Together Apart
by Roger Farbey
The title of the album explains its realisation; Britain's Ian Brighton and Henry Kaiser from California recorded their respective contributions locally and then Kaiser had them melded seamlessly together. Whilst this methodology is true for nine of the eleven tracks, the first two are solo pieces. In Memoriam--Jack and Rose Brighton," the longest cut at just ...
Henry Kaiser: Friends & Heroes: Guitar Duets
by Roger Farbey
There a real Smörgåsbord of pieces on Henry Kaiser's Friends & Heroes: Guitar Duets. They are stylistically varied improvisational vignettes ranging from the eccentric Three Languages" with Fred Frith to the heavy electric blues of A Mighty Fire" with Knut Reiersrud. There's also prog(-ish) rock on Harmony Jam" with Nels Cline and there's a kind of ...
