Album of the Week

Sweet dreams are made of this. Who am I to disagree?

Avant sounds right up the street of anyone into punk jazz particularly if you are - like us - Led Bib fans.

A pianist who played with Paul Motian not long before the drummer died, Anat Fort delivers a stirring pastoralism and serene transcendental flow in this terrific new Motian themed quartet record just out.

A classy, broodily dramatic piano trio recording kept back for years and years featuring Keith Jarrett Standards trio drummer Jack DeJohnette and bass don Christian McBride is album of the week new from the Muscovite piano face, Ivan Farmakovskiy.

Best yet from the witty duo on this marvel from Manhattan.

Waltzing into the album of the week slot, it's an Anglo-Hungarian collaboration that features the Loose Tubes tenorist Iain Ballamy, recorded live in Budapest.

These "old wanderings" beautifully set for bandoneon and guitars take your breath away beyond genre. They are new today from the nonagenarian Argentinian lion in winter, Dino Saluzzi.

Dazzling metrical adventure, Phronesis tunes reborn and more on this outstanding release

Ornette Coleman, Egberto Gismonti, Hersch, the Gershwins and Charlie Haden originals are in the trio's blend on this studio album from Switzerland

A landmark recording full of joy and grace.
