Brad Shepik: Human Activity: Dream of the Possible
by Richard J Salvucci
All About Jazz is not an academic journal, but once in a while, a little academic insight may not hurt. Two psychologists from McGill University have published an interesting piece in Impact: The Journal of the Center for Interdisciplinary Teaching & Learning produced by the College of General Studies at Boston University. In “Waking Up to ...
Philip Weberndoerfer: Tides
by Richard J Salvucci
"For myself, music has continuously been a safe shore during turbulent times, and for that I'm deeply grateful. In Tides I see the opportunity to share this warm feeling of solace, and want to invite the listeners to open their minds and let their spirits flow freely." This is Philip Weberndoerfer's own take on Tides, and ...
Brad Shepik: Human Activity: Dream of the Possible
by Katchie Cartwright
Brad Shepik's Human Activity: Dream of the Possible, featuring Layale Chaker (violin), Amino Belyamani (piano), Sam Minaie (bass) and John Hadfield (drums), is the guitarist and multi-instrumentalist's second album to respond to climate change.

Chris Rottmayer: Being
by Richard J Salvucci
One thing is for sure. If a listener comes upon a recording based on the music of Mulgrew Miller and Woody Shaw, there are unlimited possibilities for a harmonic education. Both players were revered for their sophistication and the beauty of the melodies they created. So it hardly seems odd that someone, here pianist Chris Rottmayer, ...
Michael Sarian: Live at Cliff Bell's
by Richard J Salvucci
This is music for the adventurous, especially those with the ears to deal with unusual harmonies. Michael Sarian is a now-Canadian trumpet player in the mold of Enrico Rava. His gift is his sound: dark, burnished, probing, even tentative at times. He is fond of half-valve expeditions into the upper register, which, if executed properly, can ...
Michael Sarian: Live at Cliff Bell's
by Dan Bilawsky
On March 30, 2023, Michael Sarian rolled into Detroit landmark Cliff Bell's with horn in hand. In the midst of a spring tour, that particular venue and evening provided an opportunity for the trumpeter and his bandmates--pianist Santiago Leibson, bassist Marty Kenney and drummer Nathan Ellman-Bell--to do what they do best. Working through new material and ...
Peter DiCarlo: The Other Side
by Richard J Salvucci
On “The Other Side," Peter di Carlo plays a repeated figure that reminds one of John Coltrane trying to find “Giant Steps." Nonetheless, DiCarlo is an alto player, and more in the vein of Marc Russo or someone out of Tower of Power than a typical post-bop alto player. The figure, the shape and pacing of ...
Twin Talk: Twin Talk Live
by Mark Corroto
The trio Twin Talk makes music that is best described as stealthfully hip. This Chicago ensemble of drummer Andrew Green, tenor saxophonist Dustin Laurenzi and bassist/vocalist Katie Ernst does not trade in a clamorous and flamboyant sound. Still, in their own way, the trio stands out as expressive and captivating. Their fallaciously titled Twin Talk Live ...
