Read "Montage" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

The highest praise you can give to a recording by a solo performer is that the music was made just for your ears. Pianist Luis Perdomo's Montage gives just that impression. It's easy to imagine these fifteen tracks were played in your living room, or automobile, for that matter.  After releasing seven discs as ...

Sonic Liberation 8 with Classical Revolution Trio & Oliver Lake: Bombogenic

Read "Bombogenic" reviewed by Dave Wayne

by Dave Wayne

There are a few artists out there who are successfully merging authentic traditional Afro-Cuban and Caribbean rhythms with 21st Century jazz in a way that refers to, but doesn't sound like, typical Latin jazz: Adam Rudolph's Go Organic Orchestra and Kip Hanrahan's various groups immediately come to mind. Taking their cues equally from the early 70s ...

Ehud Asherie: Shuffle Along

Read "Shuffle Along" reviewed by Maurizio Zerbo

by Maurizio Zerbo

Il progetto intrapreso da Ehud Asherie per questo album è ambizioso; re-interpretare il songbook di “Shuffle Along," primo musical di Broadway di matrice afroamericana. Le musiche composte nel 1921 da Eubie Blake brillano di una nuova luce, in tutte le declinazioni filologiche (ragtime, stride) e moderne. Colpisce il sobrio souplesse del pianista israeliano nel rinverdire con ...
