Josh Ginsburg’s “Zembla Variations” (indystar)

Cunning acoustic quartet jazz -- with a fine compositional touch by the leader
-- is a constant on this new CD (BJU Records). Bassist Ginsburg creates pieces
with just enough catchiness to generate their own atmosphere, which is then
oxygenated by the soloing as well as the chemically bonded group interaction.
Particularly impressive is the resourceful pianist (Fender Rhodes on a few
selections) George Colligan. He's a keyboardist capable of generating surprise
without showboating or heavy technical display. The rhythm section works well
as a unit, and besides the leader (adept at an occasional "arco" turn as
well), drummer Rudy Royston must be mentioned for his drive and dclean-
featured versatility. Completing the ensemble is Eli DeGibri, with contrasting
personalities evident depending on whether he picks up the soprano or the
tenor saxophone. On the latter, he's rough-edged, agreeably bumptious; with
the smoother-sounding treble instrument, he's sometimes ethereal, mostly
reliant on flowing, long-breathed phrases. You won't find it easy to leave the
world of "Zembla Variations" behind once you get caught up in it -- which
isn't hard to let happen.
