BAM: Bremen Art Music?
by Francesco Martinelli
[Editor's Note: It's been quite a few years since Italian writer, music educator and general provocateur Francesco Martinelli last contributed to All About Jazz. Having recently returned home from Jazzahead! 2012 in Bremen, and with the current debates about the meaning, future and relevance of the word “jazz" fresh in his mind, Martinelli posits an alternate ...
New Thinking in Jazz Education: Lee Konitz and Jean-Michel Pilc
by Dan Bilawsky
The idea of making the mold while breaking the mold may seem paradoxical, but it's appropriate when exploring education. The education sector has become obsessed with standardization--in regard to everything from pedagogy and methodology to content--but nobody seems to address the fact that much of the content itself wouldn't exist if not for original thinkers who ...

Jason Stein Quartet: The Story This Time
by Nic Jones
The two horns, bass and drums quartet is becoming a commonplace grouping even though it hasn't quite reached the saturation point of the piano-bass-drums trio.

Jimmy Halperin/ Dominic Duval/ Brian Willson: The Music of John Coltrane
by John Sharpe
Why would modern improvisers want to create a session around music over 50 years old? That's the question the pairing of bassist Dominic Duval and saxophonist Jimmy Halperin look to answer over the 68-minute program of The Music of John Coltrane. Having already delved into the Thelonious Monk songbook on Monkinus (CIMP, 2006) and Monk Dreams ...
