| “ | Chick Corea and Gary Burton collaborated on the highly successful 1972 album, CRYSTAL SILENCE. A result of a subsequent teaming up toward the end of that same decade, DUET is another friendly and engaging set of piano and vibraphone pieces. | ” |
| “ | After a decade of leading quartets that matched his vibes with a variety of top young guitarists, Gary Burton decided that it was time for a change. While he is joined by a pair of longtime associates (bassist Steve Swallow and drummer Roy Haynes), the fourth member of the group on this set is the young trumpeter Tiger Okoshi. | ” |
| “ | Norwegian bassist Andersen's reputation in Europe over the decades is well established. He has appeared on a number of significant recordings, most notably Jan Garbarek's 'Sagn', and with his own iconoclastic ensemble Masqualero. 'If You Look Far Enough' distills those past endeavors into a most atmospheric, spacious outing. | ” |
| “ | In June 1994 over three extraordinary nights at the celebrated Blue Note in New York City, Keith Jarrett's Standards Trio took American jazz to new heights.

| “ | Classical and 12-string guitarist Ralph Towner is one of the architects of the ECM sound, and he was a founding member of the 1970s group Oregon. For his 21st release on the label---his fifth in the solo format---Towner recorded in St. Gerold's Church, a monastery in the Austrian Alps, which accounts for the introspective character of this project | ” |
| “ | Ralph Towner breaks out in more ways than one on City of Eyes. Despite his band Oregon's lagging creative slump and his own obsession with a synthesizer he is only beginning to learn how to "play," Towner cuts some new grooves on this set with an all-star cast. | ” |
| “ | Egberto Gismonti's work is rooted in the very air of his native Brazil, in its convulsive history and rich terrain. Danca dos Escravos, or "Dance of the Slaves," is inspired by the early history of conquest and bondage, with each of his pieces inspired by a narrative of that history. | ” |
| “ | Egberto Gismonti's music has long been a meeting point for improvisation, Brazilian folk and European classical music. On this aptly named recording, Gismonti's compositions are performed by the Lithuanian State Symphony Orchestra with the Brazilian composer as guest soloist. | ” |
| “ | This album brings Egberto Gismonti (mainly at his custom-made violões, just a couple of tracks at the piano), Nando Carneiro (violão, a discrete keyboarding), and Zeca Assumpção (double bass). The album comprises a broad dynamic range, from the peaceful, melancholic, and meditative to the aggressive, percussive, and dissonant. | ” |
