	Joanne Brackeen: Pink Elephant Magic Joanne Brackeen displays an unbridled artistic creativity and passion through her distinctive compositional skills and her piano virtuosity in this recording with the world-class rhythm section of John Patitucci and Horacio “El Negro” Hernandez, and special all-star guests Nicholas Payton, Kurt Elling, David Liebman and Chris Potter.
	David Lahm: Jazz Takes On Joni Mitchell David Lahm and 18 all-star guests demonstrate that Joni Mitchell’s work is jazz composition.  It has a place in the repertoire of that most vital and uncompromising genre of music, mainstream American jazz.
	David Liebman: The Elements: Water Teaming up with guitar great Pat Metheny, David Liebman explores — through music — the various faces and facets of water, giver of life and refresher of souls.
	Billy Taylor: Ten Fingers—One Voice In only the second solo album of his 50+ year career, pianist, composer, educator, TV/radio host Dr Billy Taylor plays with a joy of self-discovery on the swing tunes that is infectious ... a daring risk-taker who has absorbed the entire jazz tradition but now breaks through as an immediately identifiable personal force.
