Released just six months after Gypsy '66, Gabor Szabo's second album as a leader (after leaving a sublime Chico Hamilton band that also included Charles Lloyd) remains one of his finest moments in the studio. Szabo utilized the tales of bassist Ron Carter and his old boss Hamilton on drums, as well as a pair of fine Latin percussionists – Willie Bobo and Victor Pantoja…

Since 2006 the Bremen jazz pianist Jens Schöwing and his ensemble have dedicated themselves to a person many music connoisseurs consider the greatest “jazzer” of all time: Johann Sebastian Bach. Blue Note Bach charms the listener with a balance of classically woven musical textures played with a definite jazz identity.

This first full-length album from the young German indie pop songstress follows the 2015 eponymous debut EP that launched her into the public eye. With elements of retro pop, soul, and classic rock, this is an assured collection of tracks that see Lilly's rich, powerful voice nestled within smooth arrangements combining traditional pop/rock instrumentation with sympathetic electronic flourishes. The singles "Blood & History," "Your Hands Are like Home," and "The Only One" are included.

Being a highly acclaimed international classical pianist for almost five decades Friedrich Gulda also cultivated a great passion for modern jazz.

Originally released in 1973 as a sprawling two-LP set, The Payback was one of James Brown's most ambitious albums of the 1970s, and also one of his best, with Brown and his band (which in 1974 still included Fred Wesley, Maceo Parker, St. Clair Pinckney, Jimmy Nolen, and Jabo Starks) relentlessly exploring the outer possibilities of the James Brown groove…

Eric Bibb is one gifted blues guitar (opens in new tab) player. His style is rooted in folk, in the Delta, and animated by the acoustic guitar’s natural resonance. In his hands, the guitar can sit down low and earthy, Bibb plucking with his thumb as though fishing for bass notes in the mud, or it can be bright and lyrical, harmonics popping off the ‘board, but it’s almost always got a sense of forward motion, a groove to suit all tempos.

Digging Roots’ new album Zhawenim centres themes from residential schools to reclamation, climate change to "baamaadziwin" (the good life).

This album is devoted to Handel's concertante music for solo oboe, of which only a few concertos have survived. He was particularly fond of the instrument and assigned many solos to it in his oratorios, operas, concerti grossi and sonatas. He is even reported to have said of his early oboe works: 'I used to write like the D-v[Devil] in those days, but chiefly for the oboe, which was my favourite instrument.'His some 20 concertos for a solo instrument are mainly for the organ and include just one violin concerto and three oboe concertos (HWV 301, 302a and 287). The latter, featured here, is the best known, as it also appears transcribed for other instruments.

"Vulture Prince" is the third album from Brooklyn-based Pakistani composer Arooj Aftab. Championed by NPR, who praised her composition as one of the “Greatest Songs By 21st Century Women+,” and the The New York Times, who celebrated her work as one of the “Best Classical Music Tracks of 2018,” Aftab’s liminal sound floats between classical minimalism and new age, Sufi devotional poetry and electronic trance, jazz structures and states of pure being.

Barely aged twenty, Éric Heidsieck burst into the classical milieu with a very noted recording of a pianistic challenge and monument of the repertoire, Beethoven’s twenty-ninth sonata. This album, the very first of a long series, preludes two other later recordings of the Hammerklavier – definitely a Heidsieck favorite!
