Jacob Chung: The Sage

by Jack Bowers
On The Sage, his second album as leader, Canadian-bred saxophonist Jacob Chung lends credence to a speculative yet widely held belief that contempory jazz continues to grow and prosper north of the American border. Chung is no mere hobbyist, nor are his veteran helpmates --one of whom, alto saxophonist Vincent Herring, has been a force on ...

Jason Rigby: The Sage

by AAJ Italy Staff
Dopo le ottime accoglienze avute nel suo esordio da leader (Translucent Space, Fresh Sound), il sassofonista newyorchese conferma d'avere idee chiare e buon talento per organizzarle. The Sage t'avvolge con un'ondata di suoni familiari, fondendo le atmosfere davisiane di fine anni sessanta (Shorter e Hancock soprattutto) con la libertà melodica e armonica di Ornette. Il tutto ...
Jason Rigby: The Sage

by Eyal Hareuveni
The sophomore release of New York-based saxophonist/composer Jason Rigby features him as a unique new voice that deserves wider attention. His deep, full-bodied tenor sound and his inside-outside jazz vocabulary reference sax greats such as John Coltrane and Wayne Shorter, while his elastic sense of time sounds closer to the fluid playfulness of Ornette Coleman. His ...

Jason Rigby: The Sage

by J Hunter
When purists maintain their Cheney-like insistence that nobody could have foreseen Miles Davis recording something as incendiary as Bitches Brew (Columbia, 1969), they reveal a blind spot the size of the Chrysler Building. The pre-Brew signs were as plain as the glasses on Stanley Crouch's face: First there was Filles de Kilimanjaro (Columbia, 1968), which codified ...
Jason Rigby: The Sage

by Troy Collins
New York-based saxophonist Jason Rigby's sophomore effort, The Sage, is the follow-up to his much-heralded premier as a leader, Translucent Space (Fresh Sound New Talent, 2006). Featuring the core members of his debut's nonet, this forceful quintet session traverses the exploratory electro-acoustic sound world of early fusion, the muscularity of hard bop, and the spacious freedom ...

Jason Rigby: The Sage

by Terrell Kent Holmes
With The Sage, Jason Rigby has composed an album that’s thought-provoking without being pretentious, accessible without being insubstantial. Rigby is a fine saxophonist who builds coherent ideas gradually without over-emoting, the sign of someone in complete control of his craft. The fluid themes and textures of “Magenta” recall an Ornette Coleman-type of ...
