She pours herself fully into the vessel of the blues singing slow and radiant on her powerful version of \u201cMy Man\u2019s Gone Now\u201d and then spiky and sweet on Ida Cox\u2019s classic \u201cWild Women Don\u2019t Have The Blues\u201d and in the comic stroll of \u201cSam Jones\u2019 Blues.\u201d Her vocal playfulness positively glows on such burbling romps as \u201cLet\u2019s Face The Music And Dance\u201d; \u201cNothing Like You\u201d and \u201cNever Will I Marry.\u201d She effortlessly fashions narratives by Kurt Weill and Langston Hughes into a coiled, unfolding performance (on the unflinching \u201cSomehow I Never Could Believe\u201d) and then she joins a velvety string ensemble with cool vocal glow on a few zesty originals. Salvant inhabits the narratives of her songs with effortless aplomb. She fills each with soft scampers; slow delicious murmurs or heady crescendos \u2013 all with expressive delight. She possesses this protean ability to maintain her lithe pitch control to lightly perch on any twig or branch in her wondrous vocal range with indelible expressiveness (from tender quips to full blasts of soulful heat).<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3383\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3383\" style=\"width: 590px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3383 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/harlem-jazz3.jpg\" alt=\"harlem-jazz3\" width=\"590\" height=\"392\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/harlem-jazz3.jpg 590w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/harlem-jazz3-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/harlem-jazz3-451x300.jpg 451w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 590px) 85vw, 590px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3383\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Harlem World Magazine<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Her partnering trio is as dapper and impeccable as one of Mr. Diehl\u2019s fastidious bowties. On Dreams and Daggers, each player dazzles in their solo work and in their collective whimsy with Salvant\u2019s creative lead. Diehl is a master storyteller at his keyboard. He possesses the lightest of touches; the most devious velvety runs and can surprise with fresh bursts of octaves or soft isolated notes that combine for deep expressiveness. Sikivie\u2019s bass is a resonant juggernaut (check out his pumping presence in duet with Savant on \u201cYou\u2019re Getting To Be A Habit With Me\u201d) and Leathers is a sensual propulsive machine on his drum kit (listen to his impeccable backbone on \u201cSi J\u2019etais Blanche\u201d). Savant\u2019s duet with guest pianist Sullivan Fortner on \u201cYou\u2019ve Got To Give Me Some\u201d is another highlight as it shakes with sassy fury and showcases Fortner\u2019s own transfixing piano style and his swanking partnership with the ever-adventurous Salvant. The audiophile quality of Dreams and Daggers captures every tactile detail of these gleeful encounters within the acoustic space and energy of the Vanguard. The adoring audience is also ensnared up close and present in their \u00a0boisterous enthusiasm for each musical gift bestowed by this stunning jazz band in action.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3382\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3382\" style=\"width: 768px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3382\" src=\"http:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/d72fbe46e430489bc803ccd9a605b658-768x576.jpg\" alt=\"metrolyrics.com\" width=\"768\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/d72fbe46e430489bc803ccd9a605b658-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/d72fbe46e430489bc803ccd9a605b658-768x576-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/d72fbe46e430489bc803ccd9a605b658-768x576-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3382\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">metrolyrics.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Across town from the Village Vanguard, the eminent Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra (<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jazz.org\/JLCO\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">www.jazz.org\/JLCO\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) creates its own magic in performances at Lincoln Center in New York City.

The musicians gathered on this recording offer dynamic companionship to Cannon in their eclectic journey together. Russell Malone\u2019s swanking guitar joins Cannon\u2019s nimble bass in a radiant duet on \u201cHow Great Thou Art\u201d while Gary Bartz\u2019s smoothly cascading alto propels the unflinching R &amp; B of \u201cGary\u2019s Tune.\u201d Pianists Kenny Barron and Rick Germanson bring their own glowing styles to several tunes that run from a shimmering bossa (\u201cAmanda\u2019s Bossa\u201d) to the feathery lightness of \u201cHow My Heart Sings.\u201d Drummer extraordinaire Willie Jones III brings his panache to everything he touches, including the blaring cacophony of \u201cColumbus Circle Stop\u201d which blares with Jones\u2019 humming snare and crisp cymbal heat.

He can also sing on his alto sax in full ballad glory on the slow unfurling swing of \u201cFrom Day By Day\u201d and the loping gait of Wayne Shorter\u2019s \u201cContemplation\u201d. The unusual front line of Irby\u2019s alto sax mixing it up with a tenacious trombone (plied by either Vincent Garner or Elliot Mason) is bold and expressive. \u201cWillie\u2019s Beat\u201d and \u201cRacine\u201d are stellar examples, with trombone and alto sax rollicking to Reed\u2019s pouncing piano notes and the sparkle of Jones\u2019 nimble cymbal\/snare combinations. Irby\u2019s version of \u201cSweet Georgia Brown\u201d is a sprite swinging delight where trombone, sax and bass frolic in lightning elegance to the dance of Jones\u2019 wood rim hits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trombone also plays glorious partner to sax in another blazing recording session brought to us by the young baritone saxophonist, B.J.

Curtis shines with keyboard prowess as he delivers tight bluesy turns of phrase and deft soft note accents. \u201cBucket Full of Soul\u201d also swings kinetically on Jansen\u2019s baritone pelts and gutsy breeze (blowing from high registers to low) with Marsalis working his creative banter and bluster. In contrast, \u201cBrandon\u2019s Blues\u201d walks in slow strides as baritone and (muted) trombone take a stroll in warm meandering fashion, until Eubanks trumpet interrupts with his brazen calls \u2013 all angular, creative shine. This glittering band can do anything it wills: moving effortlessly from the full bore swing of \u201cAngela\u2019s Aggravation\u201d to the melodic flow of \u201cRelaxin\u2019 With Jessica\u201d. The title cut, with a feel of John Coltrane\u2019s combination of soulfulness and heat, is ignited by Jansen\u2019s baritone solo roiling in colorful declarations of low reedy power and heft partnered with Douglas\u2019 heady bass rolls and Peterson\u2019s snare and cymbal power. The magnetic Peterson is a creative gale force throughout the recording. His percussive foundation lays the brickwork for all the garlands of sonic riches and grooves that are delivered from this tight adventurous band flourishing in their companionship.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3375\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3375\" style=\"width: 768px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3375\" src=\"http:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/13252-6-20150729014055-768x512.jpg\" alt=\"drummerszone.com\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/13252-6-20150729014055-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/13252-6-20150729014055-768x512-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/13252-6-20150729014055-768x512-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3375\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">drummerszone.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shadows of John Coltrane and his compatriot genius, Thelonious Monk, linger over many of these new artists\u2019 creative visions.

Listening through my Rega RP-10 turntable with Alpheta 2 cartridge (<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rega.co.uk\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">www.rega.co.uk<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) and Aesthetix Rhea phonostage, (<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.aesthetix.net\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">www.aesthetix.net<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) this LP\u2019s surfaces were dead quiet and images were beautifully rendered. Although Monk\u2019s piano is a bit recessed and its harmonic body slightly curtailed, there is a naturalness and informal quality to this session that immediately draws one into the drama and chemistry between these simpatico players. When the full band is involved, such as on their swinging \u201cWell, You Needn\u2019t,\u201d or \u201cRhythm-a-Ning\u201d, Rouse and Wilen\u2019s saxes explode with dynamic presence in each corner; Taylor\u2019s jumping sticks on his cymbal are crisp and clear and Jones\u2019 walking bass is a pungent engine. Monk\u2019s delicious and obtuse keyboard chases bind all this buoyant drama with his limpid bluesy phrases and pouncing chords. On \u201cSix in One\u201d; \u201cCrepuscule with Nellie\u201d and \u201cPannonica\u201d, Monk\u2019s solos are little marvels which are revealed on this splendid LP in all their intricate design and playful vision. The swank of Monk\u2019s 12-bar blues, \u201cBa-Lue Bolivar Ba-Lues-Are\u201d is icing on the cake as all of these gifted musicians take a spirited run at this voluptuous romp. The Sam Records LP of this historic session allows us to time-travel back to sit in a folding chair in the Nola Studio and relish all of these potent grooves and musical drama within the air, warmth and naturalness of the studio space that only an LP can provide.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3373\" src=\"http:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/61n3f0dSdBL._SY355_-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"61n3f0dSdBL._SY355_-300x300\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/61n3f0dSdBL._SY355_-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/61n3f0dSdBL._SY355_-300x300-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Taking his own inspiration from Monk\u2019s incomparable razzmatazz with rhythms, instrumental colors and melodic fancy, pianist, composer and arranger John Beasley has reinvented many of Monk\u2019s compositions into his own exuberant stew for his \u201cMONKestra\u201d Big Band. The band has released two volumes of recordings, entitled MONKestra Volume 1 and 2 both on Mack Avenue Records [<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mackavenue.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">www.mackavenue.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">]. The recording quality of both of these titles is excellent with the full weight, spaciousness and colorful imagery of a swanking big band in creative flight captured in a layered and airy \u00a0space. Beasley and his MONKestra can make a blaring New Orleans\u2019 parade out of the glory of Monk\u2019s \u201cRound Midnight\u201d or sail Monk\u2019s \u201cSkippy\u201d into bluesy R &amp; B territory, carefree and swinging. Monk\u2019s \u201cLittle Rootie Tootie\u201d is a collage of start and stop brass and woodwind soars while \u201cEpistrophy\u201d beckons with its dissonant swipes and clusters of tumultuous sounds (with guest Gary Burton frolicking on his crisp vibes). From Monk\u2019s unpredictable vamps to his swinging bebop glory, everything is within the grasp of Beasley\u2019s creative arrangements and the MONKestra\u2019s consummate music making. They partner on these two recordings to flutter, spin and carouse in the playful landscape of Monk\u2019s genius to the delight of our ears and our spirit.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3372\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3372\" style=\"width: 814px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3372\" src=\"http:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/AAIA_wDGAAAAAQAAAAAAAA1uAAAAJGQ5ZWRjMDgxLTMyZWYtNGI0ZC1hZGViLTUwNGQwYWQ1NjYyOQ.png\" alt=\"linkedin.com\" width=\"814\" height=\"539\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/AAIA_wDGAAAAAQAAAAAAAA1uAAAAJGQ5ZWRjMDgxLTMyZWYtNGI0ZC1hZGViLTUwNGQwYWQ1NjYyOQ.png 814w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/AAIA_wDGAAAAAQAAAAAAAA1uAAAAJGQ5ZWRjMDgxLTMyZWYtNGI0ZC1hZGViLTUwNGQwYWQ1NjYyOQ-300x198.png 300w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/AAIA_wDGAAAAAQAAAAAAAA1uAAAAJGQ5ZWRjMDgxLTMyZWYtNGI0ZC1hZGViLTUwNGQwYWQ1NjYyOQ-453x300.png 453w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3372\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">linkedin.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you would like to read more reviews like this one, visit Nelson\u2019s blog at <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bostonconcertreviews.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">www.bostonconcertreviews.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Real music lovers can find the melody in everything.
