The Afton Project – Vol. 1: between fading photographs

Frédéric Cardin — Thu, 11 Dec 2025 02:15:21 +0000

What a beautiful album (actually an EP that is much too short for the quality presented). The Afton Project is led by Toronto bassist Devin Patten, around whom gather the hushed voice of Laura Swankey, the delicate guitar of Andrew Marzotto, the lunar violin of Aline Homzy, and the silky vibraphone of Michael Davidson. We […]

Frédéric Cardin — Tue, 16 Sep 2025 14:50:00 +0000

Somewhere between Cordâme (from Montreal) and Bang on a Can (New York), David Occhipinti’s music written for the Camera ensemble occupies a space between classical writing and improvisation (jazz but not only).

Bryn Roberts – Aloft

Frédéric Cardin — Mon, 18 Nov 2024 16:41:12 +0000

Elegant jazz, with a firm poise and some fine exchanges between the members of the trio made up of Roberts on piano (originally from Winnipeg), Matt Penman on double bass and Quincy Davis on drums. A classic trio, then, playing in the court of the great examples of the genre, in a cool way but […]
