Charlie Haden

Jazz CD Review: “Long Ago and Far Away” — Together Again

By: Michael Ullman Filed Under: Featured, Jazz, Music, Review Tagged: Brad Mehldau, Charlie Haden, Impulse Records, Long Ago and Far Away

Fuse Remembrance: Ornette Coleman — The Gentle Iconoclast

Ornette Coleman’s music was avant-garde but, perhaps unconsciously, his notion of art as free lyrical adventure was deeply American.

Jazz Album Reviews: Two Remarkable Duets — Charlie Haden/Jim Hall, Kenny Barron/Dave Holland

Jim Hall sounds at his best on these newly issued duets. So does Charlie Haden, whose plangent sound has rarely, if ever, been captured so well.

By: Michael Ullman Filed Under: Featured, Jazz, Music Tagged: albums, Charlie Haden, Dave Holland, duets, Jim Hall, Kenny Barron, The Art of Conversation

Jazz Remembrance: Bassist Charlie Haden — August 6, 1937 – July 11, 2014

“One of the great things about improvisation is that it teaches you the importance of the moment and how to live in that moment and place importance on this life and making this life better.”

By: Michael Ullman Filed Under: Featured, Jazz, Music Tagged: Charlie Haden
