Derek Bailey: Standards
by Stuart Broomer
In 2002 Bailey released one of his most unusual CDs, Ballads (Tzadik), a solo performance with him freely improvising on standards. This is a second installment, though this recording actually precedes Ballads. Liner notes by Karen Brookman-Bailey and John Zorn recall Christmas 2001: The Baileys--Derek in New York to pick up a “new guitar--invited Zorn and ...
Derek Bailey: Standards
by Mark Corroto
The world is a bit lonelier now that guitarist Derek Bailey has passed away. The freedom his music allowed is, or should be, a model to every musician and listener interested in the creative process. This signature album, Standards, follows the 2002 Tzadik Records release of the infamous Ballads sessions, but was in fact recorded before ...
Derek Bailey: Standards
by AAJ Italy Staff
Natale, sempre Natale. Con il Derek Bailey degli ultimi anni non c'è verso di sfuggire a questa ricorrenza, nel bene e nel male. Il ricordo va al Natale 2005, quello che se l'è portato via [ma una volta Babbo Natale non si accontentava di latte e biscotti?], ma se ci spingiamo qualche anno più addietro, nel ...

John Stetch: Standards
by Dan McClenaghan
The solo piano can be a tough arena, especially when offering up American Songbook classics. John Stetch's Standards, the pianist's second solo outing and his eighth CD overall, succeeds by taking some unlikely--for solo piano--tunes and getting Zen-deep into them, paring things down to their bare essence, and using quirky rhythms and spare, elegant harmonics.
John Stetch: Standards
by Jim Santella
John Stetch doesn’t do ordinary. The pianist’s latest release allows him plenty of elbowroom as he interprets classics from the heyday of modern jazz. Stetch confesses, “Some of these tunes are like etudes or exercises.” The challenge of making familiar pieces such as “Embraceable You” and “Stella By Starlight” sound new ...
John Stetch: Standards
by AAJ Staff
For pianist John Stetch, Standards is just as much about reinterpreting as reinventing. Quite literally. His second solo piano recording after last year's totally unexpected Ukranianism takes on the full range of the jazz canon, from the relatively obscure (Charlie Parker's “Segment") to the downright promiscuous ("Stella By Starlight"). He seems to delight in plying a ...
