Kartet: The Bay Window
by Jerry D'Souza
Hubert Dupont calls Kartet a “demanding yet exhilarating collective research. The group honed these skills during a year-long residency in Marseilles just after the group was formed. The drummer at the time was Benjamin Henocq, but Chander Sardjoe, who joined them in 1996, fits in just right. The music is composed, but the freedom with which ...
Brad Shepik: Places You Go
by Celeste Sunderland
Gracefully human moments contrast with digital video game syncopation on the Brad Shepik Trio's new album Places You Go.

Michael O'Neill: Ontophony
by Robert R. Calder
Ontophony means something like “the voice of being." Like several developments from traditional Scottish beginnings, this music was born in Canada: funding came from the Canada Music Fund, the Canada Council for the Arts, et aliis Canadiensibus. Bagpipes don't have so ancient a history in Scotland, contrary to common misapprehensions. The bagpipe arrived ...
Gordon Grdina - Gary Peacock - Paul Motian: Think Like The Waves
by AAJ Italy Staff
Allievo di Gary Peacock, Gordon Grdina è un musicista che segue con pari interesse il jazz e le musiche di origine orientale. Non a caso, il nostro affianca alla chitarra l'oud, ovvero il liuto della tradizione araba.

Dylan van der Schyff: The Definition of a Toy

An eclectic mix of jazz, rock and world music, the ten cuts on the CD draw on many cultures and influences, creating a combination that defies categorization. There's also a lot of humor; witness Aram Bajakian's liner notes, which ...
Brad Shepik Trio: Places You Go
by Matt Cibula
Brad Shepik is a very good guitarist, but there are a lot of other people out there who can match that description. He has assembled a nice trio here featuring Gary Versace's canny Hammond B-3 work and the nifty drumming of Tom Rainey, but there are a lot of guitar trios fighting for space in the ...
Brad Shepik Trio: Places You Go
by Troy Collins
Venturing beyond styles and categories, guitarist Brad Shepik is one of today's pan-stylistic artists. From seminal gigs with trumpeter Dave Douglas' Eastern European folk-influenced Tiny Bell Trio to membership in the collective avant-Balkan trio Babkas, multi-ethnic investigations with the trio Lingua Franca, and his own world music-influenced quintet, the Commuters, Shepik is the quintessential postmodern musician.
