Ted Nash's quintet has a slightly different instrumentation than the usual jazz group: the leader's got reeds, violin, tuba, accordion and drums! Nash switches between tenor, alto, clarinet, bass clarinet and alto flute while Clark Gayton triples on tuba, trombone and baritone horn. Joined by violinist Nathalie Bonin (who has a beautiful "legit" tone), Bill Schimmel on accordion and drummer Matt Wilson, the group performs unique renditions of Dizzy Gillespie's "A Night in Tunisia," "Tico Tico" and two movements from Concierto de Aranjuez plus three of the leader's originals. The unpredictable music they create, which is influenced by the cultures of Latin America, South America and Eastern Europe, is full of logical development, rich melodies and unusual tone colors. Each of the musicians is a virtuoso and the colorful arrangements utilize their instruments in unexpected ways, with any of the players being potentially in the lead at any time. La Espada de la Noche is an especially memorable and unique set, one of the more inspired jazz recordings of 2005. ~ Scott YanowDown Beat (p.66) - 4.5 stars out of 5 - "[The album] tumbles south of Panama - and across the Atlantic...with a light touch and more air between the parts, the accent being on the accordion's reedy highs..."

Mountain Passages is the debut release for trumpeter/composer Dave Douglas' Greenleaf label. It is a studio recording of a work composed for and originally performed at 2003's Italy's Sound of the Dolomites Festival (I Suoni del Dolomitti). These 12 pieces were composed, per a commission from the festival -- expressly to be played between nine and 12,000 feet above sea level. The performers and festival attendees hiked up the mountain together for the gig. Douglas dedicates the music to his late father Damon who was a mountain runner and mapmaker. Another interesting point of fact is that Douglas was sent ...
| | Paul Motian I Have The Room Above Her CD (2005)
La Espada De La Noche
$14.65 
Personnel: Paul Motian (drums); Paul Motian; Bill Frisell (guitar); Joe Lovano (tenor saxophone).
Recording information: AVATAR Studio, NY (04/2004).
Photographer: Robert Lewis .
The sum total of the nuanced, elliptical lyricism at the heart of Paul Motian's compositional method can be heard in the opening seconds of "Osmosis Part III," the first track from I Have the Room Above Her. Recorded for ECM -- with producer Manfred Eicher, guitarist Bill Frisell and saxophonist Joe Lovano -- this date is Motian's first as a leader for the label in more than 20 years. This is the same team that recorded the seminal album It Should've Happened a Long Time Ago in 1984. At that time, Lovano and Frisell were just beginning to establish themselves as bandleaders though they had each recorded under their own names. The weight placed on each member of this band is tremendous since standard rhythmic and harmonic anchors such as bass and piano are absent. Instead, melody, spatial dynamics and a sense of expressionistic harmony become the triad ...
| | Dave Holland Overtime CD (2005)
La Espada De La Noche
$13.89
Personnel: Antonio Hart (flute, soprano saxophone, alto saxophone); Mark Gross (alto saxophone); Chris Potter (tenor saxophone); Gary Smulyan (baritone saxophone); Duane Eubanks, Alex Sipiagin, Taylor Haskins (trumpet, flugelhorn); Josh Roseman, Robin Eubanks, Jonathan Arons (trombone); Steve Nelson (vibraphone, marimba); Dave Holland (double bass); Billy Kilson (drums).
This exceptional date by Dave Holland Big Band was recorded in 2002 in New York, yet remained unreleased until 2005. As is to be expected, Holland assembled a fine cast of seasoned and young players, some of whom are veterans of Holland's quintets and quartets. These are four saxophones -- two alto, tenor and baritone -- three trumpets and trombones, and vibes as well as bass and drums. They include Chris Potter ...
| | Andrew Hill Time Lines CD (2006)
La Espada De La Noche
$13.45
Personnel: Andrew Hill (piano); Andrew Hill; John Hebert (upright bass); Greg Tardy (clarinet, bass clarinet, tenor saxophone); Charles Tolliver (trumpet); Eric McPherson (drums).
Audio Mixer: Dae Bennett.
Recording information: Bennett Studios, Englewood, NJ (06/23/2005-07/18/2005).
Photographer: Jimmy Katz.
While recording for Blue Note in the 1960s, composer and pianist Andrew Hill released some of the most forward-thinking and meticulously constructed albums of the post-bop era. The intelligence and daring that characterized those albums still inhabits Hill's recordings, as 2006's TIME LINES attests.
Flanked by a fine quartet (a bassist, drummer, trumpeter, and the multi-talented Greg Tardy on tenor sax, clarinet, and bass clarinet), Hill still reels off witty, elliptical piano lines that bring together modal music and free jazz with strains of traditional bop structure. Packed with both fine compositions and playing all around, ...
