Steve Kuhn: At This Time…
by Maurizio Zerbo
L'arte pianistica diSteve Kuhn richiederebbe maggiori attenzioni da critica e pubblico, sia per la maestria tecnica, che per l'originalità e la coerenza progettuale.

Christopher Zuar Orchestra: Musings
by Dan Bilawsky
If you open the packaging for this album, you'll encounter a picture of Christopher Zuar that initially seems to touch on a theme of isolation. Shadows and light play against the wall behind him, but it's Zuar himself, sitting and staring into the distance over his piano, that really draws the eyes in. After looking at ...

True art also has that ineffable something, which could be described as the soul of the performer touching the soul of the listener. The performer brings everything (including, of course, the extra-musical) he or she ...
