Derek Brown and The Holland Concert Jazz Orchestra: All Figured Out
by Geno Thackara
Whatever you imagine when you think of big bands, it's nothing quite like this. While Derek Brown can ably channel the snappy spirit of golden-age jazz--and certainly does here, with happy hard-swinging results--his spirit in composing and bandleading could not be more thoroughly modern.

Danny Scher: Back To School With Thelonious Monk
by Lawrence Peryer
A high-stakes election season. Streets filled with rage and protest. Cries for racial justice and equity. The latest news from summer 2020?
