Tony Kadleck Big Band: Around The Horn
by Dr. Judith Schlesinger
One of the best and most unique things about All About Jazz is that discovering wonderful music is not limited to the narrow window around someone's release date. Whenever you stumble on something especially delicious, you can share your sentiments about it--and even if another reviewer has gotten there first. The route by which ...
Marco Sanguinetti: Cómo Desaparecer Completamente (How to Disappear Completely)
by Troy Dostert
Argentinian pianist Marco Sanguinetti has brought his imaginative, genre-crossing sensibility to projects like “8" (2014), an album of original, Latin-inspired pieces filtered through thoroughly modern stylistic devices, and his work with Pibe-A, which has recorded tributes to Pink Floyd's “Dark Side of the Moon" and Radiohead's “Kid A." Given his track record of eclecticism and ambition, ...
Emanuele Maniscalco Meets Sandro Gibellini: E/S
by Neri Pollastri
Incontro apparentemente classico tra chitarra e pianoforte, questo lavoro ha in realtà più di un motivo di interesse. Il primo è la documentazione di una collaborazione che dura da circa quindici anni ma che non era mai stata registrata prima, quella tra la chitarra di Sandro Gibellini e il pianoforte di Emanuele Maniscalco, cioè uno storico ...
Brian Eisenberg Jazz Orchestra: Sense of Gratitude
by Angelo Leonardi
L'orchestratore losangelino Brian Eisenberg debutta a capo della sua big band di 18 elementi presentando otto sue composizioni e un fresco arrangiamento di “Blackbird," il brano di Lennon e McCartney. Ha già ottenuto ottimi riconoscimenti (l'ASCAP Herb Alpert Young Jazz Composer Award, una menzione al Downbeat Magazine Student Music Award, il John Philip Sousa Award, eccetera) ...
Jon Stickley Trio: Lost at Last
by Geno Thackara
Intricacy and virtuosity can so often turn listeners away if they get excessive, but the Jon Stickley Trio finds that sweet spot where it never sounds awkward. They specialize in a stylistic mishmosh based around (but hardly limited to) folk, jazz and bluegrass, hooky and melodic enough to make any instrumental flash feel like an afterthought. ...
Kris Johnson: Jim Crow's Tears
by James Nadal
The term Jim Crow, reputedly, has its origins in West Africa, based on a Yoruba folk tale of a crow called Jim, who appeared lazy, yet was clever and lucky. This story was brought to America by the enslaved Africans, who embellished it, and turned it into a song and dance routine to take their minds ...
Synia Carroll: Here’s to You...
by C. Michael Bailey
Et in terra. Honesty in music is expressed in its simplicity. The first right thing that vocalist Synia Carroll does on her debut recording, Here's to You... is employ a jazz piano trio, the subatomic format for jazz: piano, bass, and drums. The second thing that Carroll does is fix her art in the earth, something ...
Martin Bejerano: Trio Miami
by Dan Bilawsky
While nobody could successfully argue that the cost of playing with jazz legend Roy Haynes outweighs the benefits--a wealth of experience and time to connect with one of this music's greatest figures, tremendous exposure and opportunity on the performance front, time to build a group dynamic with one of the few true working bands out there, ...
Nikolett Pankovits: Magia
by Mark Sullivan
Vocalist Nikolett Pankovits was born in Hungary, but she found her musical direction in New York City melding Hungarian songs with Latin American rhythms. She has a lovely warm voice, with almost no vibrato. Magia (the Spanish and Hungarian word for magic) is an eclectic mix of traditional Hungarian songs, torch songs, one Great American Songbook ...
Glen Phillips: Swallowed by the New
by Doug Collette
It's not wholly fair to say Glen Phillips' is the sound of Toad the We Sprocket (with whom he still works when not going solo). But it was usually his insinuating voice and engaging way with words that shaped the group's sound and those virtues are readily apparent on this exotic sounding record Swallowed by the ...
