Read "Graylen Epicenter" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


Alto saxophonist and producer David Binney has become a ubiquitous presence in jazz in the last 20 years fronting his own bands while appearing with Donny McCaslin, Uri Caine, Joel Harrison, Edward Simon and Bobby Previte.

Pianist/Composer Soren Moller Releases New CD "Christian X Variations" on Audial Records.

Some jazz musicians do one thing well, but that one thing is all that they do. Not Soren Moller. Flexibility is the driving force that motivates this Danish-born pianist-composer to continually explore. Moller is as comfortable playing his original compositions in a duo or quartet configuration as he is interpreting the work of Miles Davis or ...

Peter Erskine / Bob Mintzer / Derek Oles / Alan Pasqua: Standards 2, Movie Music

Read "Standards 2, Movie Music" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


While the songs featured on Standards 2, Movie Music were given an initial audience through the medium of film, some of them have led a fruitful existence beyond the borders of the silver screen. Some melodies--like Tara's Theme," from 1939's Gone With The Wind--will always be associated with their point of origin, but much of Cole ...

Arturo O'Farrill: 40 Acres And A Burro

Read "40 Acres And A Burro" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

David Binney: Graylen Epicenter

Read "Graylen Epicenter" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


19th-century German novelist Berthold Auerbach is long forgotten by the masses in modern day society, but his best-known quote about music, “Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life," still lives on but pays no mind to the fact that some of the finest music can be reflective of everyday life.

David Binney: Graylen Epicenter

Read "Graylen Epicenter" reviewed by Troy Collins


Saxophonist, composer and producer David Binney, a progressive artist with one foot in the mainstream and the other in the avant-garde, has gracefully skirted the tenuous divide between traditions for over two decades. Regularly alternating between semi-casual blowing dates and far more ambitious projects, Binney follows up the relatively straight-ahead Aliso (Criss Cross, 2010) and lavish ...

Mark Weinstein: Jazz Brasil

Read "Jazz Brasil" reviewed by Jerry D'Souza


Mark Weinstein had a long journey across the trail of music instruments before he settled on the flute. He first played the piano when he was six.
