Steve Lantner: Given - Live In Munster

Read "Given - Live In Munster" reviewed by John Sharpe


What is called free jazz can cover a very wide spectrum of creative music, not all of which is as unfettered as the name implies. At the most basic level, choice of instrumentation is a clear limitation, while pre-agreed moods or written heads may further reduce the possibilities. On Given, the second release ...

Steve Lantner Quartet: Given - Live In Munster

Read "Given - Live In Munster" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


Pianist Steve Lantner possesses the uncanny and, in certain respects, enviable manner to triumphantly fuse free-jazz elements with microtonal inferences and the twelve-tone system. With a superb support structure in place featuring a wonderful foil in multi-reedman Allan Chase, Lantner's quartet presents a study in contrasts, all enhanced with its radiating contrapuntal maneuvers and synergistic group-centric ...

Steve Lantner Trio: What You Can Throw

Read "What You Can Throw" reviewed by Troy Collins


Seamlessly integrating divergent threads of musical history into a singular style, Boston-based pianist Steve Lantner has established himself as an artist to watch. His third trio recording and fifth as a leader, What You Can Throw is definitive--a swinging maelstrom of lyrically disjointed melodies and abstruse rhythms. Lantner is joined by his regular rhythm ...

Steve Lantner Trio: What You Can Throw

Read "What You Can Throw" reviewed by Chris May


There are times, during the loping, rollicking “New Routine" which opens this album by pianist Steve Lantner's trio, that it sounds, and even more emphatically, feels like you are listening to one of pianist/composer Thelonious Monk's great trios of the early 1950s--shades of “Blue Monk," “Bemsha Swing" and “Little Rootie Tootie" jostle, accommodate and morph into ...
