	Violinist Scheinman charts a new course with pianist - The Boston Globe
		When violinist Jenny Scheinman opens the Waterside Stage at noon tomorrow at the JVC Jazz Festival-Newport, she'll be debuting new music written specifically for her big-name, short-term sideman, Jason Moran.
		Scheinman, 33, was scrambling to get ready for a quick trip to Lisbon last week, where she would join an expanded version of the Rova Saxophone Quartet in a performance of music from John Coltrane's famous late-period album ``Ascension." But she paused to discuss her latest project by phone from her Brooklyn apartment.
		Scheinman says some of the pieces she's writing are closer to straight-ahead than her previous work, because of Moran.

		Scheinman's lyrical violin playing is found all over the album, naturally, but her fellow musicians are also given plenty of space to represent themselves.
		The quirky phrasing of Scheinman's frequent employer and fellow conspirator, Bill Frisell, are heard in the haunting melodies and lush harmonies of these catchy and irrepressible tunes.

	- of the week: Review: Jenny Scheinman (30;2)
		These cats were assembled to record Scheinman's next album this week and were supposed to play a warm-up gig at Tonic.
		Jenny deferred to her band almost to a fault, allowing them to break off into subgroups throughout the set.
		With the announcement that Jenny will be playing a free show at Prospect Park, it may just be her.

	Details for Jenny Scheinman/Shalagaster at CDconnection.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		On 'Nigun,' Scheinman 's violin creates the place of erased history as she drones through Melford 's contrapuntal drone and melody that seems to come from the heart of Jewish antiquity.
		Scheinman 's compositions carry within them the mystery, history, heartbreak, and humor of the American experience as lived through one at the margins of culture, race, ideology, style, and spirituality.

	Jenny Scheinman Orchestra
		Violinist Jenny Scheinman is one those delicious young New York musicians whose obvious talent has led to an astonishing breadth of playing experience.
		Scheinman augmented her semi-regular band — Doug Weiselman (clarinet), Ron Miles (cornet), Tim Luntzel (bass), Kenny Wollesen (drums) — with secret guest guitarist Frisell (who often performs unannounced at Scheinman’s concerts) and an orchestra of 11 violins, five violas and four cellos, all conducted by Eyvind Kang.
		Scheinman was ostensibly the leader but she only took two solos and followed the direction of Kang like the other string players.

	12 Songs - Jenny Scheinman > Cryptogramophone > Creative Jazz
		Like her frequent employer Bill Frisell (whom she employs here), Jenny Scheinman composes vignettes that frame a world for listeners to find comfort, not just through its distant familiarity, but with enough imaginative angularity to convert the most common hue of blue into a feathering peacock’s rainbow of one simple color.
		Scheinman is a violinist who has been working out her own marvelous path through jazz from the 1920's and the 1960's and possibly the future - as well as calypso, French musette, Brazilian choro and about 10 other genres.
		Violinist and composer Jenny Scheinman's latest CD is a trip down memory lane to the deep bayous of the South, emphasizing lazy '30s jazz.

	Jenny Scheinman: Touching Many Strings
		Jenny Scheinman, a violinist of eclectic style and taste, has been coming into her own in the music world; the jazz music world, if you will.

		Scheinman didnât stay at Oberlin, instead transferring to UC Berkeley where she graduated with honors in English literature in 1995.

	Jenny Scheinman: Violin works well with jazz \| Daily News \| 08/03/2007
		Jenny Scheinman is the first to admit that the violin has played a relatively minor role in jazz history.
		Scheinman's music manages to seem both intimately familiar and somewhat foreign, with folk and pop roots planted deeply in theatrically fantastic soil.
		Scheinman's own path led her in the opposite direction - first to the Bay Area and to New York in 1999.

	Jenny Scheinman - Music - Review - New York Times
		Scheinman’s partners were the guitarist Nels Cline, the bassist Todd Sickafoose and the drummer Jim Black: musicians with overlapping histories and proclivities.
		Scheinman’s next album, which she will shortly record with these musicians: a good thing, given how well they have articulated a group identity.
		Jenny Scheinman resumes her weekly series on Tuesday at Barbès, 376 Ninth Street, at Sixth Avenue, Park Slope, Brooklyn, (718) 965-9177, barbesbrooklyn.com.

	Klezmer Review: Jenny Scheinman / Shalagaster
		Different from her first Tzadik album, Jenny Scheinman's new "Shalagaster" is not on the "Radical Jewish Music" label, rather it appears as "folk jazz" on the "Oracles" label.
		This may be an acknowledgement of how much broader her musical explorations have become, or how much those elements of this album that are Jewish are simply one component among others.
		Scheinman's ability to create interesting textures, and then to pull the listener in, farther and further, is what gives this album its depth.

	Metroactive Music \| Jenny Scheinman
		Scheinman may be one of the most listened-to violinists on the planet, thanks to her contribution to the chart-topping cafe jazz album Come Away with Me--the multiplatinum 2002 release by sultry chanteuse Norah Jones that has sold more than 18 million copies--and its blockbuster 2004 follow up, Feels Like Home.
		Calling themselves the 858 Quartet, this foursome will perform songs from their sole album, Richter 858, a fearless set of guitar and violin duos inspired by the abstract paintings of German painter Gerhard Richter and first released in 2002 as a companion CD to a limited-edition art book about his work.
		But the discs that have caught the ear of many critics are Scheinman's own CDs, especially 2003's The Rabbi's Lover, which spans the sonic realm from haunting klezmer melodies to red-hot fusion, and 2004's more mature Shalagaster, featuring some of the most scintillating music released last year.

	tinsquo: W.I.T. Series: Jenny Scheinman
		Jenny Scheinman’s violin has played a dizzying dance of collaboration with with the current greats of New York’s Downtown New Jazz scene: from John Zorn to Norah Jones, she’s played her way into a rising reputation as a talent to watch.
		If you’ve never heard Jenny Scheinman’s nuanced and atmospheric compositions, they can provide surprisingly unnostalgic entrance to the raw character and sound of America’s past.
		SCHEINMAN: Right now, what I need to hear is that I don't need to please anyone in particular but I've got to go straight into what it is that I hear and find the power inside.

	Shalagaster
		With Shalagaster, Scheinman has put together an eclectic sound with a quintet that employs harmonium (or piano) and trumpet with the leader's violin, in front of bass/drums rhythm.
		The set is more about Scheinman's compositions and the group's rich and unusual harmonics than individual virtuosities—though satisfying moments of that do shine through with all three front line players.
		Scheinman's violin tone has a substantialness to it, as though the wood of the instrument is endowed with a more than normal resonance, that lessens for a thinner, more whimsical airiness on the klezmer-ish “Wiseacre.”

	San Francisco - Music - Jenny Scheinman
		It's debatable how much veteran jazz guitarist Bill Frisell has influenced Brooklyn-based violinist Jenny Scheinman via their collaborations of the past few years.
		With the exception of the oompah march groove of "Moe Hawk," the Bay Area native's compositions revel in languid tempos and dreamy, tuneful melodies that are sometimes so sweet, as on the Vince Guaraldi-pretty "Satelite" [sic], they may make your teeth ache.
		Scheinman's world-class septet -- Frisell, Ron Miles (cornet), Doug Wieselman (clarinet), Rachelle Garniez (accordion, piano, claviola), Tim Luntzel (bass), and Dan Rieser (drums) -- performs her spare arrangements with a note-perfect reserve that makes it seem as if the music is playing itself.

	CD Review of Jenny Scheinman - Shalagaster on Tzadik @ jazzreview.com
		With Shalagaster, her third release as a leader, she continues to show what musicians seem to already know; that she is an artist who, with a virtuoso talent on her instrument, is an astute player, with a musicality that is broad in reach and deep in resonance.
		Passionate and lyrical, Scheinman has surrounded herself with sympathetic players who are equally expressive, and clearly understand the breadth of her vision.
		It is this sensibility that provides the thread that ties together a diverse programme of material from Jenny Scheinman, who is rapidly emerging as an artist of consequence.

	Rasputin Manifesto (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Scheinman and Frisell have been playing together more and more of late, and this disc is ample proof of their musical likemindedness.
		Her tunes run the gamut from Frisell-like gothic Americana to Irish reel-esque romps, with the interaction between Scheinman and Frisell almost always at the core of what's going on.
		The band is rounded out by Ron Miles on cornet (another Frisell collaborator), Doug Wieselman on clarinet, Rachelle Garniez on accordion and other things, Tim Luntzel on bass and Dan Rieser on drums.

	Jenny Scheinman > Cryptogramophone > Creative Jazz
		Jenny Scheinman was voted the #1 Rising Star Violinist in the 2003-2005 DownBeat Critics' Polls and performs and records extensively with Bill Frisell as well as Norah Jones, Vinicius Cantuaria, Madeleine Peyroux, Nels Cline, Marc Ribot, Scott Amendola and Myra Melford.
		Jenny Scheinman describes her childhood home as the westernmost house in the continental United States, at the ocean-end of a small river valley in northern California, home to a rowdy mix of old ranchers and transplanted east coast back-to-the-landers like her parents.
		During the summer the family lived outside, at a "luxurious" campsite in an alder forest near the river complete with sofas, running water from a small creek, a huge wicker swing, and a big campfire circle.

	BBC - Jazz Review - Jenny Scheinman, The Rabbi's Lover
		She has both a personal and a scholarly interest in Jewish music and legend, and on this recording interprets traditional material and also composes within the tradition.
		But Scheinman has learned how to mix her musical metaphors, working with the eclectic West Coast group Charming Hostess, which combines Bulgarian choral music with Jewish klezmer (among other things), and she has also worked with jazz luminaries such as Bill Frisell, John Zorn and Cecil Taylor.
		Scheinman's own extemporizing sometimes occupies a middle ground between ornamentation and improvisation, although she improvises convincingly on "Seating of the Bride" and "Motherlap."

	Jenny Scheinman Trio - Review - Music - New York Times
		The violinist Jenny Scheinman is full of playful ideas, and they’re never obscure.
		The company she keeps in New York circles has made her a jazz musician by extension; she is a soulful, generous improviser and a quick study.
		Scheinman’s tunes — a folk song, a bolero-type ballad, a near-lullaby, a calypso — the physicality of his playing mostly hid out, and likewise the time-stretching hesitations and surges of Mr.

	12 Songs : Jenny Scheinman : CD Reviews : One Final Note
		Violinist Jenny Scheinman’s 12 Songs is such a record—a treat for its distinctive compositions, enticing melodies, and all around stellar ensemble playing.
		Other than proving to be a gifted composer, Scheinman is a deep thinker on her instrument with a keen ability to capture beauty at each turn.
		Consider the quirky two-step march of “Moe Hawk”, with Scheinman’s sprightly strings prickling forth; or the Gaelic-tinged mist of “She Couldn’t Believe It Was True”, with a dazzling performance from Weiselman and in the second, dance section of the song, Scheinman’s vibrant lines.

	CD Review of Scott Amendola - Cry on Cryptogramophone @ jazzreview.com
		With guitarist Nels Cline creating ambient backwashes and violinist Jenny Scheinman contributing deep, heartfelt melodies, Amendola creates a vibe that could easily fit in Bill Frisell’s universe.
		Scheinman, who I’d previously only heard with Bill Frisell’s Intercontinental group, also displays surprising fire and intensity in her solo.
		Eric Crystal’s soprano sax solo could charm a snake; Scheinman contributes a lithe solo; and once again Cline shows his ability to meld into any style.
