Craig Tweddell Quintet: Away with Words
by Nicholas F. Mondello
Perhaps it's more than coincidental that Craig Tweddell titled this intriguing recording a snowclone--Away With Words.

A Windy Season: Tidal (Amphidromic Cotidal)
by Dave Wayne
This album fooled me, and I am not afraid to admit it. A subset of the EA Orchestra, whose recent recording (Likiedos, Amirani Records, 2011) focused on the compositional aspects of avant-garde large ensemble music, A Windy Season is a wind quartet that--at first blush-seems to traverse similar terrain on Tidal. A quick perusal of the ...
Sketches: Volume One
