Life's Backward Glances - Solo and Quartet

Read "Life's Backward Glances - Solo and Quartet" reviewed by John Kelman


With an inestimable career largely spent in the service of interpreting the material of others, it's easy to forget pianist Steve Kuhn's equally valuable contributions as a composer. That he's turned almost exclusively to the venerable ECM label when either the spirit moves him to focus once again on his own writing, or when the label's ...

Steve Kuhn Steve Swallow: Two by 2

Like his frequent (and equally idiosyncratic) collaborator Sheila Jordan, he's better known abroad than here, both in Europe ...

Steve Kuhn Trio: Live at Birdland

Read "Live at Birdland" reviewed by Larry Taylor


It's been said that “Jazz is the sound of surprise. Surprise is what you get with pianist Steve Kuhn's Trio on Live at Birdland. Like a face in a Picasso abstract, parts of a whole come at you from all angles, hardly recognizable. What the artist is showing is, however, crystal clear. Kuhn ingeniously de-constructs standards, ...
