Uri Caine Ensemble: The Goldberg Variations
by Glenn Astarita
Pianist/composer Uri Caine has assembled a rather large aggregation of talent for this thoroughly audacious rendering of Johann Sebastian Bach’s The Goldberg Variations. And while Caine has tackled Mahler, Wagner and Schumann with much success, on this release, the pianist melds classical music with genre hopping, doses of humor and sprightly interludes that makes for one ...

Dave Douglas: Moving the Music Forward
by David Adler
There aren't many artists who release records two at a time, but trumpeter Dave Douglas has done it already this year with Leap of Faith, a quartet date for Arabesque, and Soul On Soul, a sextet session for RCA Victor which pays tribute to the late pianist and composer Mary Lou Williams. On top of that, ...
Uri Caine Ensemble: Gustav Mahler in Toblach
by Derek Taylor
P>Recorded at a recent Mahler festival in Italy, Caine’s recent release revels in the challenge of fitting the Austrian composer’s classically grounded soundscapes into a jazz-based improvisational setting. The chameleonic shifts in styles and approaches on this disc are dizzying in both their number and frequency. Often the most unexpected elements of the ensemble sound originate ...
Uri Caine Ensemble: The Sidewalks of New York: Tin Pan Alley
by C. Michael Bailey
Archival Impressionism. Pianist Uri Caine is quickly joining Ry Cooder, Don Byron, and to a lesser extent, Wynton Marsalis as an archivist of American popular music. Ry Cooder's 1978 recording Jazz (Warner Brothers 3197) deftly captured jazz for the '10s and '20s. Marsalis solemnly documents the '20s through the '50s (at one time ...
Uri Caine Ensemble: Gustav Mahler in Toblach
by David Adler
Avant-garde pianist Uri Caine turned a lot of heads with his first Mahler disc, Urlicht/Primal Light (Winter & Winter, 1997). He's doing it again with a double-disc follow-up recorded live in Italy. The band is considerably smaller this time: two fewer vocalists, no clarinet, no trombone, no cello, and no guitar. Two key chairs have changed ...

The Uri Caine Ensemble: Gustav Mahler in Toblach: I Went Out This Morning Over The Countryside
by Glenn Astarita
Many would concede that fusing classical music with jazz is like mixing oil and water, they just don’t coalesce all that well. In theory these two diametrical art forms just don’t share a common denominator or equalizer – end of story! Well, not entirely so, according to jazz pianist/composer Uri Caine who achieved critical success with ...
Dave Douglas: Convergence
by AAJ Staff
Even if you consider yourself only marginally knowledgeable about modern jazz, there remains virtually no valid excuse for not having heard of trumpeter/composer Dave Douglas. Over the past 5 years Douglas' recordings have appeared on numerous yearly “best of “ lists including those of the New York Times, the Village Voice and All About Jazz. His ...
