But the true highlight is their interplay on Dresser’s composition “Mattress on a Stick”, which leads with a breathtakingly lyrical bass introduction, over Moser’s sparse and haunting choice Patience of chords.

He’ll take some time to bring his all-star quartet to UMass Amherst, performing at Bowker Auditorium on Thursday, November 19 th at 7:30 p.m. The New Yorker calls Akinmusire “a thrilling trumpeter and astute bandleader [with a] unique spark in his playing.” He is fast moving to the front ranks of progressive jazzmen, earning both the Doris Duke Impact Award and the Doris Duke Artist Award in the past two years. Appearing as part of the FAC’s Billy Taylor Jazz Residency, Akinmusire will also be an artist in residence in the area for the week of his performance. This will include teaching masterclasses at local high schools and colleges. In addition, Akinmusire will sit in with the Northampton Jazz Workshop as a special guest artist on Tuesday, November 17 at City Sports Grille (525 Main Street, Northampton).

Obviously, these items would be a good gift idea for any occasion year-round, as well as a gift for yourself! We do not include many, if any at all, single CDs in the guide. Most everything contained will be multiple CD sets, DVDs, CD/DVD sets, books and the like. Of course, you can always look though our back issues to see what came out in 2017 (and prior years), but none of us would want to attempt to decide which CDs would be a fitting ad- dition to this guide. As with 2016, the year 2017 was a bit on the lean side as far as reviews go of box sets, books and DVDs - it appears tht the days of mass quantities of boxed sets are over - but we do have some to check out. These are in no particular order in terms of importance or release dates.
