Works for Me —a new group of musicians put together by Marc Free at Posi-tone records kicks off that labels output for the new year/decade in fine form.
The Tower Jazz Composers Orchestra, The TJCO has been the natural evolution of two previous didactic music projects: "The Unreal Book" and "The Tower Jazz Workshop." Throughout the years, these experiments have reached a more synthetized dimension and contributed to create a strong band dynamic, focusing today on a repertoire based on original compositions and arrangements. The orchestra is led by two prominent Italian musicians, Alfonso Santimone and Piero Bittolo Bon. The sensitive and empathetic qualities of the twenty-three artists involved add constantly surprising creativity filled with fresh musical ideas, playing original tunes specifically written for and by the Orchestra but also by reviewing music from all over the world.
Eunhye Jeong—Boston-based pianist, composer and improviser Eunhye Jeong has performed with some prominent avant-garde musicians Her new exciting live recording is the fourth record as a leader or co-leader, of her latest concert Chi-Da, the free improvisation project that encourages colliding worlds of different performers and aims to achieve the harmony through the independency of each musician involved in the act.
William Parker—A special edition release comprised of two "brand new" full-length albums, distinct in personnel & approach, yet complementary in ethos. William Parker is / has been on a profound and voluminous creative flow. Both of these albums were made in Summer 2018.
