Freedom Art Quartet: First Dance
by Carl Medsker
Raucous, brash and freewheeling, First Dance by The Freedom Art Quartet is rooted in the past yet fresh and contemporary. The album should sound familiar to those who have ventured outside the mainstream and spent time with Ornette Coleman and the Art Ensemble Of Chicago. Those forces are strong in the band, but labeling them retro ...
Beatrice Arrigoni: Terrestre
by Angelo Leonardi
L'ultimo album di Beatrice Arrigoni in quartetto esplicita i risultati di un percorso di ricerca più che decennale, che ha portato la cantante ai riconoscimenti critici dell'ultimo Top Jazz, quale artista emergente nazionale.

Nick Biello: New America
by Paul Rauch
Upon listening to alto saxophone virtuoso Nick Biello, a quote attributed to Charles Mingus may come to mind: “If Charlie Parker was a gunslinger, there'd be a whole lot of dead copycats." “Slow down," you might say, “Biello is not Bird, not even close--nobody is." But the quote relates to Biello in that he is far ...
Kevin Goss: Gratitude
by Kevin Goss
As I approached the “big five-oh," I started doing some thinking about how much I have to be grateful for: a supportive family, meaningful friendships, and music. I wasn't supposed to make it to the “big oh-five," but I beat the odds and, in the years since, it is my family, friends, and music that have ...
Saul Dautch: Music for the People
by Jack Bowers
It is always a pleasure to hear a straight-ahead contemporary jazz quintet whose front line consists of baritone sax and trumpet, especially when it is as well-drawn as Florida-bred baritone Saul Dautch's debut recording, Music for the People, on which he shares melodic assignments with trumpeter Noah Halpern and, to a lesser extent, pianist Miki Yamanaka. ...
