Master pianist Bobo Stenson and long term bassist Anders Jormin - now joined by alertly responsive young drummer Jon Fält - have developed a richly detailed sound-world like nothing else in modern jazz - at once an extension of the jazz piano tradition and, with its windows opening onto classical music and world folklore, a force apart from it. Characteristically broad program, with ...
Editorial Product Review: :A mature statement by a still-young Polish band that already has 15 years of playing experience behind it. All group members shine here, withMarcin Wasilewski again impressive as one of the most outstanding jazz pianists of his generation. The group has already a strong and still-growingfollowing both in their own right and as members of the Tomasz Stanko Quartet. (Additionally, profiles of pianist Wasilewski and bassist Kurkiewicz have been raised by their membership of the Manu Katché Group). Remarkably broad program of material. Repertoire includes music by Prince, Carla ...
Editorial Product Review: :To celebrate his 70th birthday, (March 15th) Charles Lloyd presents his first live quartet album; a really exciting set of music recorded in Basel in 2007 featuring a revamped Quartet now with young stars Jason Moran on piano and Reuben Rogers on bass both making ECM debuts here.

Editorial Product Review: :In the wake of the '80s comedy boom that made casual obscenity and bodily functions safe for TV, a listen to these '50s classics from a piano-playing Harvard grad student with a thin singing voice sounds tame if not quaint. Yet Lehrer's first two self-produced albums, among the first generation of comedy LPs, remain beloved gems of musical parody, and noteworthy for their original success in an era when their topics were strictly taboo for broadcast media. He kids cold war paranoia ('We Will All Go Together When We Go'), ...
