Francois Carrier: Entrance 3
by Mark Corroto
Some artists have a way of synthesizing various modes and trends in their craft, so that their art comes off as all-inclusive and incredibly original. Canadian saxophonist François Carrier is one such artist. On Entrance 3, he bridges modern free jazz and mid-1960s post-bop, with guest pianist Bobo Stenson and his working trio of bassist Pierre ...
Uri Caine Bedrock: Plastic Temptation
by AAJ Italy Staff
Plastic Temptation è un album equilibrato; nonostante tutto; nonostante le discese e le risalite (abbastanza) ardite. La musica si sfilaccia come un maglione di lana che lascia velocemente l'uomo nudo, vestito solo dalla sua pelle, incantato prima e poi sconvolto dal freddo. E' così tanto freddo, senza umore, senza aria, un brano come “Noid," funky scatenato ...

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. He might be considered the logical next step in jazz saxophone after Wayne Shorter and Michael Brecker (Sonny Rollins remains ...

Donny McCaslin: Perpetual Motion
by Dan McClenaghan
Saxophonist Donny McCaslin can be called, quite accurately, a fearless player, whether it's for his prodigious and always adventurous work as a sideman--very notably with trumpeter Dave Douglas' quintet and with Maria Schneider's award-winning orchestra (for which he garnered a Grammy nomination), or on his own discs as a leader.McCaslin's musical spirit is a ...
Donny McCaslin: Perpetual Motion
by Dan Bilawsky
Each new record from tenor saxophonist Donny McCaslin is cause for celebration. With each album, McCaslin has put himself in the middle of a different instrumental configuration, challenging the saxophonist to reach new heights, and Perpetual Motion is no different. Now that he has proven his mettle on the piano-less trio battleground with Recommended Tools (Greenleaf, ...
Donny McCaslin: Perpetual Motion
by C. Michael Bailey
Donny McCaslin's Perpetual Motion is an embarrassment of riches, employing a lineup populated by the edgiest, most progressive-thinking jazz musicians currently composing. Alto saxophonist David Binney (who also produces the disc), pianist Uri Caine, bassist Tim Lefebvre and drummer Antonio Sanchez have been producing music that has positively expanded jazz music for the past decade. McCaslin ...
Donny McCaslin: Perpetual Motion

Drawing off the best of the 21st century's jazz, ...
