Read "In Two Minds" reviewed by John Kelman


In the years since Every Step a Dance, Every Word a Song (Summerfold, 2005) and In Concert in Holland (Summerfold, 2005)--a CD and DVD documenting drummer Bill Bruford's nascent duo with Dutch keyboardist Michiel Borstlap, the pair has continued to perform at irregular intervals.

The New Percussion Group of Amsterdam: Go Between

Read "Go Between" reviewed by John Kelman

World Drummers Ensemble: A Coat of Many Colors

Read "A Coat of Many Colors" reviewed by John Kelman


For those who think that percussion should be restricted to timekeeping, A Coat of Many Colors may come as something of a surprise.
