Two new albums of previously unreleased material by a pair of essential parts of the jazz improvisation lexicon are featured in this edition: Kalaparusha Maurice McIntyre, one of the perhaps less heralded but much appreciated saxophonists to emerge from the AACM in Chicago and trumpet giant, Tomasz Stanko, a leader in the European avant garde. And there are two other trumpet players with excellent new albums: Tomasz Dabrowski who like his mentor Tomasz Stanko, is from Poland, and Portugal’s Gonçalo Marques. Australian star, saxophonist Sandy Evans, is heard on a reissue that features her with various players in duo format,
and the German trio, Dream Big Fish, also contributes a tune from “Dream Big Fish”. I think you’ll enjoy the rest of the music as well.
