Jazz Dispatch Series / Simons Summer Concert Series: Tom Manuel, Champian Fulton, Dean Johnson and Dan Pugach
by Dan Bilawsky
A 5 p.m. performance on a Tuesday in a math and physics building on a college campus isn't exactly your garden variety jazz hit. But then again, what is?! In programming for The Jazz Loft's Dispatch Series stop at Stony Brook's Simons Center for Geometry and Physics--part of that institution's summer concert slate within its broader ...

This large-scale event--a collaboration between Tilles Center for the Performing Arts and Jazz at Lincoln Center, held on July 19, 2025 on the Brookville campus of Long Island University--boasted four well-set stages and nine artful ...
Sinne Eeg & Jacob Christoffersen: Shikiori 想帰庵
by Dan Bilawsky
Vocalist Sinne Eeg and pianist Jacob Christoffersen have been collaborating for two decades. Surprisingly, though, this is their first duo album. And it's a beaut--truly well worth the wait. The musicianship from each is first-rate, their chemistry is palpable, the material--a balanced mix of originals and familiar fare--is both highly sophisticated and completely accessible, and the ...
Jody Redhage Ferber / Alan Ferber / Mark Ferber: Confluence
by Dan Bilawsky
Cellist Jody Redhage Ferber has been at the forefront of creative music for two decades, effectively straddling the line between jazz and classical settings.

Anita Donndorff: Thirsty Soul
by Dan Bilawsky
The second album from Argentina-born, New York-based vocalist Anita Donndorff owes its identity to both of her homes. With studio sessions taking place in Buenos Aires and the East Village in Manhattan, and some Argentinians and two Americans contributing to Latin-inflected takes on songbook standards, this notable newcomer proudly displays her history through Thirsty Soul.

Ted Rosenthal Trio: High Standards
by Dan Bilawsky
Ted Rosenthal has remarkably high standards. How else to explain his vast achievement(s) over the past four decades? This ace pianist and composer has done it all--topped the pack at the Thelonious Monk International Jazz Piano Competition, worked with the crème de la crème (i.e., baritone saxophone icon Gerry Mulligan, alto saxophone legend Phil Woods, multi-hyphenate ...
Frank Kimbrough: The Call
by Dan Bilawsky
Pianist Frank Kimbrough's untimely passing--on December 30, 2020--left a void in the world. Nothing can or ever will fill it, but his work and influence sound eternal, resonating and rippling across space and time. Kimbrough still has plenty to show us and teach us about the beauty inherent in the art of pianistic elocution, melodic variation, ...
Vince Giordano & the Nighthawks at Birdland Theater
by Dan Bilawsky
Some things never go out of style. You can put Jazz Age gems on that list...and then rightly double down by adding Vince Giordano & the Nighthawks, too. The noted multi-hyphenate and his band of true believers have long been the gold standard in this area--the premier purveyors of Roaring Twenties repertoire--and they've been demonstrating that ...
Billy Cobham's Time Machine at Blue Note Jazz Club
by Dan Bilawsky
Science has yet to crack the space-time continuum. Music, however, can manage to do the trick. Billy Cobham, proving that point during his six-night stand at New York's Blue Note, transported listeners to another era. The octogenarian drumming icon used this platform as an opportunity to revisit and update the sounds of the '70s (and beyond), ...
