Omar Puente - Motherland Pulse - Omar Puente is a fighter. He has had to be as a violinist and jazz musician, best known for his extensive work with Courtney Pine, relocating from Cuba to Bradford and finding his own artistic path on the creative jazz and latin circuit in the UK. On his debut From There To Here he draws together all the strands of his ideas so far, from charanga to the furthest possibilities of jazz violin. Read more... Claire Martin - The Things I Miss The Most - Claire Martin follows on from her Shirley Horn-inspired album from two years ago with A Modern Art featuring songs by Rodgers and Hart, and Cy Coleman which sees her build ever more strongly on her reputation as a classic jazz singer steeped in the traditions of Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan and Carmen McRae. Yet Martin also includes recent songs by Donald Fagen, Michael Franks and the late Esbjörn Svensson. She speaks with candour and looks back with a measured eye as she talks to Stuart Nicholson about her career so far and pulls no punches. Read more... Robert Glasper - The Range - Robert Glasper returns this month with his third album for Blue Note. In two distinctive halves, one with his trio of Vicente Archer and Chris Dave, the other with his hip hop band The Experiment, the pianist has moved on leaps and bounds in a short few years. It’s a move to present jazz and hip hop on equal terms, as influenced on the one hand by the likes of Herbie Hancock, and on the other by the daisy age of De La Soul. Interview:: Stephen Graham.
