| | Franziska Baumann Potage Du Jour CD Franziska Baumann Discography of CDs
This is the first CD in the Leo Records catalog by the stalwarts of the Swiss new music scene: Jurg Solothurnmann - soprano and alto sax, Franziska Baumann - voice, Christoph Baumann - piano. The trio Potage du Jour was formed in 1999 after an exciting i
Personnel: Jurg Solothurnmann (soprano saxophone, alto saxophone); Franziska Baumann (vocals); Christoph Baumann (piano). Although Potage du Jour is a cooperative effort featuring three musicians engaging in free improvisations, clearly singer Franziska Baumann is the main star. Her intense wordless vocals are frequently bizarre, filled with otherworldly sounds. Her range is very impressive and she never seems to falter, but that does not necessarily mean that this is easy music to listen to. While saxophonist Jürg Solothurnmann and pianist Christoph Baumann also improvise freely, they sound conventional next to the singer, whose very adventurous flights are easier to admire than to love. ~ Scott Yanow

Purchase Potage Du Jour CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Houston Person Mellow CD (2009)
Potage Du Jour
$13.59 Personnel: Houston Person (tenor saxophone); James Chirillo (guitar); John Di Martino, John Di Martino Quartet (piano); Lewis Nash (drums). Audio Mixer: Rudy Van Gelder. Liner Note Author: Sid Gribetz. Recording information: Van Gelder Studios, Englewood Cliffs, NJ (06/23/2009). Photographer: John Abbott . Not all mellow, Houston Person's tribute to the softer side of jazz has its moments based on the laid-back timbre of his soul rather than a program consisting of only ballads. The tenor sax he wields certainly reflects the tradition established by Ben Webster in its soul-drenched tone, but is not as vocally pronounced or vibrato driven. The quite capable ...

| | Jeff Hamilton Symbiosis CD (2009)
Potage Du Jour
$12.59 Personnel: Jeff Hamilton (drums); Tamir Hendelman (piano). Audio Mixer: Steve Genewick. Liner Note Author: Diana Krall. Recording information: Capitol Studios, Hollywood, CA (02/02/2009). Jeff Hamilton's recordings have always been focused as straight-ahead and mainstream as your typical superhighway, with occasional time for rest stops, gassing up, and sleepovers. While always a good listen, Hamilton and his non-stop rotation of up-and-coming pianists and bassists never really pushed the envelope, staying the course set by his mentor, the late, great bassist Ray Brown, and other California-based coolsters. With ...

Jim Brickman's simple, straightforward solo piano melodies have made the extraordinary breakthrough onto soft rock radio alongside the Whitney Houstons and Mariah Careys. Perpetuating his belief that less is more, the former jingle writer keeps the romantic pieces on his eloquent third release, Picture This, short and hooky, with most clocking in under three minutes. Though his label association might lean towards his categorization as a new age artist, Brickman is pure pop all the ...
