		<description><![CDATA[&#160; There are few things quite as rewarding as following a musician&#8217;s career, witness their development as they forge their particular sound, and then, one day, hear it all wondrously coalesce into a recorded piece of excellence.  That&#8217;s what has taken place with the new release from saxophonist Dayna Stephens, titled A Nepenthetic Place. Today, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#160; Pascal Le Boeuf has just released a pair of interesting new recordings that, individually, hold their own each as solid performances, but it&#8217;s how they work as points of comparison, as poles of complementary function and point of view that provides the real intrigue. Pascal&#8217;s Triangle is a nice modern piano trio recording.  With [...]]]></description>
