Ken Filiano

Born:
Ken Filiano performs throughout the world, playing and recording with leading artists in jazz, spontaneous improvisation, classical, world/ethnic, and interdisciplinary performance, fusing the rich traditions of the double bass with his own seemingly limitless inventiveness. Ken's solo bass CD, “subvenire” (NineWinds), received widespread critical praise. For this and numerous other recordings, Ken has been called a "creative virtuoso," a "master of technique" . . . "a paradigm of that type of artist. . . who can play anything in any context and make it work, simply because he puts the music first and leaves peripheral considerations behind." Ken composes for his quartet with Michael Attias, Tony Malaby, and Michael T.A

by John Sharpe
On another missive from the bleeding edge, tenor saxophonist Stephen Gauci further documents his fertile alliances in Brooklyn.

Gauci's signature blend from the further reaches of the saxophone--stretching from caustic upper register to burly bottom end--remains a ...
Jonathan Mortiz & Mike Pride: Summertime

by Mark Corroto
Sumertime by the duo of Jonathan Moritz and Mike Pride highlights the distinction between paying attention and attention paid. The former deals with concentration, while the latter concerns awareness or consciousness. With this release or any free improvisation experience, immersion prevails over comprehension. In other words, dig the view instead of building a camp here.

But their venturesome virtues extend to the interior, too. In fact, what's often of the greatest importance and interest is the roving surrounding and propelling their ...
