		<description><![CDATA[When I saw Kurt Rosenwinkel&#8217;s quartet the other night at the Regattabar I was disappointed. It wasn&#8217;t that the performance failed to meet my expectations. The musicians—Rosenwinkel on guitar; Aaron Goldberg, piano; Ugonna Okegwo, bass; Ted Poor, drums—played a complex, cybernetic bebop with, at times, exquisite virtuosity, especially on the part of Goldberg. Rosenwinkel himself is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[First thing I noticed was that Chris Potter doesn&#8217;t have an iPhone. He took a call right before the set and it looked like he just had one of those free phones, or maybe a Blackberry. A Blackberry would make sense &#8211; as one of the leading tenors of the day, he&#8217;s got a business [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Caught Pat Martino&#8217;s first set at Scullers last night. He was playing with organist Tony Monaco and drummer Jason Brown and confirmed note-by-sinewy-note  his well-deserved status as a living master still very much in possession of his prodigious gifts. Martino&#8217;s patented &#8220;horn-like&#8221; lines were in full display, as was his aptly groovy and well nigh [...]]]></description>

Their performance reminded me how much I love improvised music played by intuitive and gifted people who know how to spontaneously combine harmonic complexity and dynamic subtlety with a searching and startling lyricism.
