Tomeka Reid, Isidora Edwards, Elisabeth Coudoux: Reid/Edwards/Coudoux
by Hrayr Attarian
Leave it to Relative Pitch Records' Kevin Riley's ingenuity to release a unique, live session which brought together three of the world's preeminent cellists-improvisers. The result is the provocative, captivating and simply titled Reid/Edwards/Coudoux. On it, American Tomeka Reid joins forces with Chilean Isidora Edwards, and German Elisabeth Coudoux for four multilayered conversations. “Could ...
Luke Stewart Silt Trio, John Escreet, Natsuki Tamura/Jim Black & Matt Pavolka
by Maurice Hogue
Bassist Luke Stewart has become rather indispensable to the creative music scene in the past few years. That big unmistakable sound drives important bands like Irreversible Entanglements, Heroes Are Gang Leaders, his own Exposure Quintet and his Silt Trio. That trio is the setting for his new Unknown Rivers. It's a don't-miss-this-one recording. Other features in ...
Tom Skinner: Voices Of Bishara Live
by Chris May
Best known in the U.S.A. as a member of the late Sons Of Kemet and now The Smile with Radiohead's Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood, Tom Skinner has been a vital presence on London's underground jazz scene for twenty years. Yet remarkably, only in 2022 did the drummer and composer release his first album under his ...
Tomeka Reid Quartet: 3+3
by Chris May
Jazz cello has come a long way since Fred Katz's pioneering work with Chico Hamilton in the 1950s. Back then, the instrument was looked on as a novelty turn. In 2024, while still relatively avant-garde, its presence in a lineup is less exceptional. A pivotal point was American cellist Adbul Wadud's By Myself (Bishara, 1977), an ...

Myra Melford's Fire And Water Quintet: Hear The Light Singing
by John Sharpe
Pianist Myra Melford's blue chip Fire And Water quintet assuredly sidesteps second album syndrome. Hear The Light Singing stands very much the equal of the band's superlative eponymous debut. The only change is that Lesley Mok takes Susie Ibarra's place behind the trapset, otherwise the triumvirate completing the starry squad remains Ingrid Laubrock on saxophones, Tomeka ...
Favourite Releases of 2023
by Maurice Hogue
For a show that doesn't turn to tradition very often, there is one on One Man's Jazz: the first show of a new year features the host's favourite releases of the outgoing year. 2023 was an excellent year for new albums--post-pandemic inspiration perhaps? Regardless, big props are due to the artists who create this music and ...
2024 Winter JazzFest Marathons: A Survival Guide
by Ludovico Granvassu
Twenty years is a remarkable milestone for any activity, let alone one that comes with the wear and tear of a high-profile jazz festival that every year strives to up its own ante, like the Winter JazzFest. From January 11 to 18, 2024, fans, musicians, promoters and other industry people from around the world ...
Tomas Fujiwara 7 Poets Trio: Pith
by John Sharpe
In many ways, Pith, the second offering from drummer Tomas Fujiwara's 7 Poets Trio, pursues the course set by the eponymous debut (Rogue Art, 2020) with its lightly swinging lyricism, moments of reflective calm, and a restrained aesthetic which nonetheless permits adventurous forays. The unusual instrumentation, in which the leader supplements his trapset with Tomeka Reid's ...
