CD/DOWNLOAD/ALBUM: Tony Scott: New York, 1953 Allaboutjazz - General News
Tony Scott is an acquired taste, much like squid-ink pasta or amaro. At first, the sound of his clarinet will seem uneven, as though you're listening to someone who just started to play the instrument. If you're used to hearing the well-paced, round sounds of Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw and Buddy De Franco, then Scott's lurching, queasy attack may appear rough. But not so fast...

Fine and Mellow - Three Voices and Deborah Shulma... Allaboutjazz - Articles
Summit Records hits a quiet home run with the release of Three Voices' Transitions and Deborah Shulman and Larry Zalkind's Lost in the Stars: The Music of Bernstein, Weill and Sondheim. Three Voices Transitions Summit Records 2012 Three Voices is the trio of flugelhornist m: Kim Pensyl, vibraphonist m: Rusty Burge and bassist Michael Sharfe. While a vibraphone-anchored trio is not unheard of, it is a welcome and even novel change from piano- and guitar-centered small ensembles. The vibes lend a light touch to the harmonics of performance, providing an ethereal ambiance to the music. The flugelhorn (as opposed to the trumpet) magnifies these characteristics. Time keeping is the responsibility primarily of the bassist, but all of the principles can influence it...
