This week we turn our ears toward a varied batch of new releases, starting with Duos by Paul Dunmall and Kevin Figes, which focuses on spontaneous saxophone improvisation, while BADBADNOTGOOD offer a genre-blending experience with infectious rhythms that push boundaries. Glen Manby and the John Gibbon Trio pay nostalgic tribute to classic standards, and Alvorada's Faz Tempo captures the essence of vibrant Brazilian music, infusing it with a contemporary twist. Meanwhile, Stefan Schöler’s Folklore redefines traditional music concepts, challenging listeners to reconsider what folk music can be, and Danilo Pérez's collaboration with the Bohuslän Big Band merges multiple cultural influences, resulting in a sound overbrimming with invention. Lastly, Sphere's Complete Live At Umbria Jazz showcases an engaging live performance by the supergroup.

Paul Dunmall & Kevin Figes

Duos brings two distinct voices in jazz improvisation together for the first time: the legendary Paul Dunmall and the ever-creative Kevin Figes. This recording captures ten pieces entirely born in the moment, without any written themes or motifs. Using an array of instruments - from saxophones to clarinets and flutes - the duo crafts raw, spontaneous soundscapes that channel the evolution of jazz itself.
