Miho Hazama, People In Orbit, Joel Lyssarides, Peter Erskine & more

The 126th episode presents a wide selection of April releases, offering a rich and stylistically diverse snapshot of contemporary creative music. Compared to the previous month, the program expands further in terms of genre range and aesthetic approaches, moving fluidly between spacious Nordic-inspired soundscapes, experimental and electronic—inflected improvisation, and more tradition-rooted American jazz idioms. The selection highlights the global nature of today's jazz landscape, with contributions from artists around the world and a strong emphasis on both emerging voices and established figures. The material spans intimate, lyrically driven forms of expression, atmospheric and textural explorations, and large-scale ensemble works with cinematic depth and orchestral scope.
