Ted Poor

Since moving to New York City in 2003, drummer / composer Ted Poor has quickly established himself as a new voice on the jazz/improvised music scene. Jazz Review writes, "[Ted] has an uncanny ability to shape the music and a refreshingly unique, organic approach to playing the drums." This unique approach has caught the ears of many of the city's most established musicians. Ted is a regular member of the Ben Monder Quartet, the Cuong Vu Trio and the Jermoe Sabbagh Quartet. In addition, Ted has recently worked as a sideman with Chris Potter, Bill Frisell, Maria Schneider, Kermit Driscoll, Lucia Pulido, Kate McGary, Marc Ducret, David Fiuczynski and John McNeil

In many ways, Seattle-based 26 year old drummer and composer Xavier Lecouturier typifies the plight of brilliant young jazz musicians on the horizon in the twenty-first century.

Jerome Sabbagh: Heart

by Chris May
AAJ occasionally publishes reviews which call out the barbarism of digital-only albums (Heart is not one of these, please hang on in there).

With that stereotype in mind, one would hesitate to apply the term organ trio" to the collaborative group on Targeted. But its instigator, ...
Andrew Neil Hayes: Tenor Badness

by Chris May
