Sarah Vaughan fans latch on via a Brazilian route to trombonist Ryan Keberle's instrumental version of 'Pra Dizer Adeus' the Edú Lobo and Torquato Neto song that 40 something US player Keberle who grew up in Spokane, Washington recorded in Brazil delivered in a similar tempo with a fine arrangement by Felipe Silveira who plays piano on the track, an involving bass solo by Felipe Brisola while the hidden in plain sight subtlety of drummer Paulinho Vicente is also part of a remarkable spell the Collectiv do Brasil conjure.

Part of the fabric of the ''ur text'' if you will given a bit of licence in the terminology the sea on which this superb album of Brazilian sounds buoys upon involves a journey to the early 1970s and Lobo album Sérgio Mendes Presents Lobo as an insightful companion listen.

Considerando also includes 5 other Lobo songs and a version of Paul McCartney's 'Blackbird' plus the trombonist's own composition the soft and appealing 'Gallop' full of saudade and Keberle's nuanced tribute to Edu among the selections.

Mark Guiliana's Mischief proved one of 2023's scorchingly best to date. Easier to digest, comprehend and be immersed in with far better tunes than The Sound of Listening made contemporaneously, New Jersey drummer Guiliana played on late-Bowie classic Blackstar (2016). But long before he had also been formidable and made his mark with a certain Bradford Alexander Mehldau in the beat poetry loving jazzprog phantasmagoria that was Mehliana.

Moving right up to date Guiliana is also on the track 'Virgo 3' also featuring Oliver Lake, Brandee Younger and Josh Johnson on Meshell Ndegeocello's storming Blue Note debut The Omnichord Real Book released last month. Jason Rigby joining him for the London and Manchester dates on tenor proved on Mischief at his most tender on 'Audience Américain' a future standard surely and tenderness as well as a loose feel are important throughout. The Guiliana band for these dates is completed by pianist Shai Maestro and by bassist Orlando Le Fleming. Mark Guiliana, photo: via Edition
