Erb/Lonberg-Holm/Jackson/Reid: Duope
by Giuseppe Segala
Fred Lonberg-Holm e Christoph Erb avevano già registrato in duo nel 2011 per l'interessante etichetta svizzera Veto Records/Exchange, gestita dallo stesso Erb, il CD Screw and Straw: ora la formula che abbinava violoncello e clarinetto basso (in quel caso anche sax tenore) viene semplicemente raddoppiata, con l'inserimento di Keefe Jackson ai clarinetti basso e contrabbasso, e ...
Silvia Bolognesi - Almond Tree: Il Mandorlo
by Neri Pollastri
Il quartetto Almond Tree di Silvia Bolognesi era apparso come una delle formazioni italiane più interessanti già quando, nel 2012, avevamo avuto occasione di vederlo dal vivo. L'uscita del suo primo CD, registrato pochi mesi dopo ed edito da Fonterossa--l'etichetta della stessa Bolognesi--conferma quell'impressione. La musica del gruppo mostra con chiarezza la mano ...

Roscoe Mitchell: Three Compositions
by John Sharpe
On Three Compositions, veteran Chicago saxophonist Roscoe Mitchell's scores are interpreted by an established grouping with an AACM lineage, namesake flautist Nicole Mitchell's Black Earth Ensemble, unlike his previous album of written material, Numbers (Rogue Art, 2011), which featured a varied cast of contemporary players.

Jennifer Lee: Quiet Joy
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
You cannot judge a jazz CD by its cover, particularly in this age of frankly shoddy-looking self-produced sleeves that may well detract attention from good music inside. The cover of Jennifer Lee's Quiet Joy is not amateurish--on the contrary, it is very tastefully assembled. Nevertheless, it could be misleading. The cover depicts the San Francisco Bay ...
Jennifer Lee: Quiet Joy

When a vocalist does a collection of standards, it's important to create something that stands out--something that distinguishes his/her recording from so many others. Jennifer Lee comes through in more ways than one. Quiet Joy showcases Lee's versatility as a pianist, guitarist, arranger, composer and singer. This album is mostly comprised of songs written by Brazilian ...
