Steven Schoenberg: Steven Schoenberg Live: An Improvisational Journey

Read "Steven Schoenberg Live: An Improvisational Journey" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey

This spontaneous creativity is, at best an inspiration, and at worst, a ...

Ike Sturm: JazzMass

Read "JazzMass" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Because of its transcendent nature, listening to jazz is often considered to be a spiritual experience. Certainly listening to John Coltrane's A Love Supreme (Impulse!, 1964) is a larger-than-life experience. Same can be said of bassist Ike Sturm's JazzMass, a 10-part construction for jazz septet, voices and strings that presents prayer and music as a sacrament. ...

Ike SturmJazzMassSelf Produced2009 Ask any jazz fans if he or she knows “When The Saints Go Marching In" or John Coltrane's anthem “A Love Supreme" and you will most probably get an affirmative nod. Those versed in the music's history might even know Duke Ellington's “Come Sunday" or ...
