Scott Dubois: Black Hawk Dance
by AAJ Italy Staff
Il trentaduenne Scott DuBois, nato nell'Illinois e cresciuto a New York, è un chitarrista che nell'ambiente del jazz americano si è fatto un nome: questo disco sembra porre bene in vista alcune belle caratteristiche ma anche qualche limite. Tutti i sette pezzi originali sono interessanti, sia per lo sviluppo ritmico e dinamico, sia per un'interpretazione molto ...
Chico Pinheiro: There's A Storm Inside
by Mark F. Turner
There's A Storm Inside reaffirms Brazilian music as still one of the most romantic and vivacious genres in the world. While the rich lineage of enticing vocals and exotic rhythms remains intact, guitarist/vocalist Chico Pinheiro expands the tradition and infuses it with modernistic touches. A consummate artist, his voice is as sultry as Vinicius Cantuária, along ...
Adrian Iaies Trio: A Child's Smile
by Raul d'Gama Rose
On A Child's Smile, Adrian Iaies sheds the Argentinean persona that occasionally shrouds his music. Here the pianist has become a complete, swaggering, swinging entity, and one who melds his mentors--Hank Jones, Tommy Flanagan, Wynton Kelly, Red Garland and principally Bill Evans--into an entirely new entity. The result is a brooding artist who looks deep within ...
Jay Clayton: In and Out of Love
by Raul d'Gama Rose
There are just a handful of women vocalists alive today who continue to inhabit the rarefied space of imaginative storytellers while continuing to be unbridled innovators. Abbey Lincoln, Sheila Jordan, Norma Winstone, Cassandra Wilson, and, of course, Jay Clayton are amongst the few continuing to enthrall audiences worldwide. Despite numerous examples of their fine sense of ...
Steve Cardenas: West of Middle

David Weiss and Point of Departure: Snuck In
by Raul d'Gama Rose
The term “hipster," although appropriated to everyday use from slang and rarely used today, has a special connotation in music--especially the jazz idiom. It is a dusky, almost nocturnal word, and it has made way for new epithets that stream from rap and hip-hop, but no matter what it describes, it's always someone with certain, unmistakable ...
Drummer Dan Weiss Interviewed at All About Jazz
The first time drummer/composer Dan Weiss is heard, there can be a perception of something inherently wrong with the music. It slowly creeps up--like a chill on a cool morning, just as the sun is rising over a misty ridge. Waves of lush pastel colors pass over and around in impassioned washes of rhythm and elements ...

He began, at a tender young age, playing professionally in the early fifties in his home town of Chicago. He was, very early in his life, interested in the fields of medicine and music, and he has ...

Alan Ferber: Chamber Songs: Music for Nonet and Strings
by Raul d'Gama Rose
There is a magnificent sequence on “Paradox," about four and a half minutes into the piece, as it races upward. The instruments trade interpretations of the song's conundrum, its paradox, the inverted chord changes on which the song is built--saxophones, then trumpet, the blat-blat-blat of Alan Ferber's trombone, before the strings get their say. It is ...
