Album Reviews

****Jazz Trail Review: Morning Bells Whistle Bright, Jeong-Bisio Duo with Joe McPhee & Jay Rosen by Filipe Freitas

“Jeong and Bisio share a contrapuntal ingenuity, their symbiotic connection evident in the blues-infused pianistic intricacies and occasional arpeggiated grace, matched by Bisio's entrancing, nuanced bass work."

“A record of engrossing ideas, Morning Bells Whistle Bright, thrives on uncertainty and exploratory textures. The musicians' strong personalities elevate it above the multitude of fully improvised albums recently released."

Salt Peanuts Review: Morning Bells Whistle Bright, Jeong-Bisio Duo with Joe McPhee & Jay Rosen by Eyal Hareuveni

“...intense, restless and fast shifting conversational improvisations that manage to embrace together, in their own mysterious and expansive ways, elements of Korean traditional pansori vocalization with the approaches of Thelonious Monk, Cecil Taylor and Andrew Hill, and the idiosyncratic sonic palettes of these gifted improvisers.”

Gapplegate Music Review: Nolda, Eunhye Jeong by Grego Applegate Edwards

“Nolda embraces a brilliant inventiveness, a pianism that draws upon creatively open expression to cover a wide embrace of mountain-inspired feelings with no trace of the sort of cliches a lesser artist might rely upon to fill out the aural space. Eunhye Jeong is an original, a pianist with genuine creative thrust, with deeply exploratory expression. Take a listen to this and feel a new immediacy. I look forward to more from her. Meanwhile do not fail to hear this one.”
