Henry Threadgill has, in the framework of abstract music, been a stalwart, spontaneous composer whose personal sound is near impossible to identify, or certainly codify. A listener who enjoys very challenged music would have difficulty in discerning what is made up or written out. The elusive nature of Threadgill's kind of progressive jazz has to confound even those most oriented to his quirky pieces. Where the quintet Zooid lands in this quirky quandary of pegging a signature sound is subject to guesswork, but it definitely has its own brand of concentrated cohesion. Between Threadgill's scattershot flute and alto sax, the sleek tuba or trombone work of Jose Davila, ...

A sequel of sorts to Chris Botti's 2006 PBS special, LIVE WITH ORCHESTRA & SPECIAL GUESTS, the September 2008 event LIVE IN BOSTON found the sartorially splendid cool jazz trumpeter accompanied by the Boston Symphony and a collection of celebrity vocalists. Also available as a DVD, the concert delivers an overview of popular music, with jazz standards like "I've Got You Under My Skin" right alongside "Ave Maria" and Sting's "If I Ever Lose My Faith in You." Whether featuring rocker Steven Tyler, AMERICAN IDOL chanteuse Katharine McPhee, or pop-opera superstar Josh Groban, all the tunes are presented in Botti's inimitable, Chet Baker-influenced uber-smooth style.
Chris Botti in Boston features trumpeter Chris Botti along with a bevy of name artists performing live with the Boston Pops Orchestra at Symphony Hall in 2008. Fully documented as a concert film and album, the night is an intimate and soulful birds-eye ...

This is a continuous in-the-mix CD compiled and mixed by DJ Danny Krivit, Francois K & Joaquin "Joe" Claussell.
It's rare that club events warrant the need to compile a sampling of the tracks that are played during the night. It's even more rare when said compilation is full of great music. At Body & Soul, a weekly Sunday afternoon session of pure deepness hosted by François K., Danny Krivit, and Joe Claussell, they are already multiple volumes into such a series of releases. In this, their third installment, the three world-class DJ/producers touch ...

THE TIME OF BELLS, 1Soundscapes of Italy, Finland, Greece and FranceSteven FeldOmnis clocha clochabilis, in clocherio clochando clochans clochativo clochare facit clochabiliter clochantes.-François Rabelais, Gargantua, 1554After twenty-five years of recording rainforest soundscapes in Papua New Guinea, I’ve started to listen to Europe. I’m struck by a sonic resemblance: bells stand to European time as birds do to rainforest time. Daily time, seasonal time, work time, ritual time, social time, collective time, cosmological time – all have their parallels, with rainforest birds sounding as quotidian clocks and spirit voices, and European bells heralding civil and religious time. In these compositions you’ll hear how bells sound the time of day, the time of prayer, the time of festival, the time of transhumance. You’ll hear how their temporality shapes space, changing ambience with the season, making distance and dimension. You’ll hear how they interact with other time and space-makers, from the sea, insects and birds, to cars, televisions, and musical instruments. Most of all you’ll hear how bells simultaneously sound a present and past, as their immediate resonance also rings the longue durée of their technological and social history.1. Gragnana: a village above Carrara in the marble mountains of Italy’s Tuscan coast. Late on a May afternoon the shepherd Benito brings his fifty belled sheep down from the hills. As they walk toward the small shed where Benito will milk and leave the sheep for the night, the village church bell, about one kilometer in the distance, sounds the descending three tones that signal a funeral. Later, at 8 p.m., the bell sounds the ave maria, marking the end of the day. The bell’s imposition of religious time on Gragnana is nothing short of ironic; the village has long been home to anti-clerical anarchists. [10:06]2. Nauvo: a Finnish village on an archipelago southwest of Turku. In the brisk Nordic air of early spring a pair of austere bells calls the Sunday congregation. Then the resonance of the organ, one of the oldest in Finland, fills the old stone church. After the service, hymns are sung at the adjacent graveyard, and the birds, cars, and bells again mark the surrounding space and temporal motion of the day of prayer. [11:12]3. Kali Vrissi: a Greek mountain village between the Balkan cities of Serres and Drama. Early in the new year, people gather for the annual festival of babouyera, "the old men" masked and costumed in heavy bells. Led by bagpipes and frame drums, dozens of belled men and boys parade through the winding streets. Here festival bells both create and collapse time, playing with the struggle of music ...
