Lee Konitz, Dan Tepfer, Michael Janisch, Jeff Williams: First Meeting
by Alberto Bazzurro
Ogni tanto arrivano a farci compagnia nuove incisioni live pescate in giro per il mondo nel periodo immediatamente precedente l'interruzione dell'attività (per fortuna non definitiva) da parte di Lee Konitz, il cui attempato cuore si è messo a un certo punto a far le bizze. Quando, come in questo caso, il contesto è assolutamente decoroso e ...

Recorded in Brooklyn in April 2012 this excellent modern Quartet session led by Slovenian born pianist and composer Marko Churnchetz (native spelling is Črnčec) only recently saw the light of day in July 2014 courtesy of London's enlightened Whirlwind label.

JC Sanford Orchestra: Views from the Inside
by Dan Bilawsky
Views From The Inside is a study in contrasts and opposing forces. It's a work of compression and expansion, sonic saturation and sparsity, and consonance and dissonance. It's music that's alternately grandiloquent and direct, pointing to a place where high art and simple emotional expression aren't at odds with one another. In short, it's everything that's ...
