Yoshie Fruchter: Schizophonia: Cantorial Recordings Reimagined
by Dave Wayne
A stalwart of New York City's astoundingly creative Judaic music scene, multi-instrumentalist and composer Yoshie Fruchter specializes in one thing: moving on from what he's already accomplished. Though he has two genre-smashing albums of edgy, Judaic jazz- rock-prog fusion on John Zorn's Tzadik label under his belt (Blasphemy and Other Serious Crimes, Tzadik Records, 2011, and ...
Josh Maxey: Celebration of Soul
by Mark Sullivan
Celebration of Soul is the tenth and final album in a series of recordings made in just three years by guitarist/composer Josh Maxey. Such a uniquely prolific output did not happen by accident. Maxey says “The key to the series has been having a goal beyond what I would have considered reasonable." The series is a ...

Andrew McCormack: First Light
by Vincenzo Roggero
L'origine britannica e la residenza newyorchese costituiscono il fil rouge che attraversa First Light album nel quale il pianista Andrew McCormack fonde in maniera convincente l'aplomb, la compostezza, l'eleganza anglosassone con la vivacità, la memoria storica, lo sguardo curioso di chi guarda al futuro tipici della scena della grande mela, scena da cui provengono peraltro il ...

Philadelphia United Jazz Festival 2015
by Victor L. Schermer
Philadelphia United Jazz Festival Broad and South Street Philadelphia, PA September 14, 2015 If this review reads more like an op-ed piece than a detailed concert review, circumstances made it happen that way and enthusiasm created it. On the run, after grabbing a cannoli and a double espresso in the ...
Michael Bisio: Accortet
by Mark Corroto
There is a cartoon circulating the internet that depicts a criminal suspect being interrogated by police. Also in the room is a jazz bassist. The detective tells his partner, “he'll talk, everyone talks during the bass solo." That may be true, unless the bassist is Michael Bisio. Whether performing with pianist Matthew Shipp or saxophonist Ivo ...

EJ Strickland: The Undying Spirit
by Angelo Leonardi
A sei anni da In This Day (Strick Muzik, 2009), suo debutto in veste di leader, E.J. Strickland ritorna in sala d'incisione con un organico quasi identico, ma senza ospiti, confermando i suoi partner abituali: il fratello gemello Marcus, il pianista Luis Perdomo e il sassofonista contralto Jaleel Shaw. L'unico cambiamento è la sostituzione del bassista ...
Josh Deutsch, Nico Soffiato: Reverse Angle
by Vincenzo Roggero
Benché tra i nove brani di Reverse Angle si intrufolino Beethoven e Gershwin possiamo dire che l'intrusione apparentemente bizzarra funziona perché l'intero disco suona come un Bignami dello standard moderno. Esecuzioni contenute nel tempo -solo in due occasioni vicine ai cinque minuti di durata, l'intero album meno di quaranta -melodie in bella vista, organizzazione e sviluppo ...
