Angelika Niescier & Alexander Hawkins: Soul In Plain Sight

Read "Soul In Plain Sight" reviewed by John Sharpe

To that list can be added this richly-detailed double act with the Polish-born, German-resident saxophonist Angelika Niescier. ...

Artifacts: Tomeka Reid, Nicole Mitchell, Mike Reed: …and then there’s this

Read "…and then there’s this" reviewed by John Sharpe

Firstly this time out the emphasis is on the compositional smarts of the crew rather than a celebration of ...
