Read "Ludovico Granvassu's Garden of Jazzy Delights 2023" reviewed by Ludovico Granvassu


If it is true that, like The Police once put it, “when the world is going down you make the best of what's still around," then throughout 2023 jazz fans were better off than most other social groups. In a year in which everyday news brought ever more inconceivable disappointments, jazz musicians, labels, festivals and venues ...

Keith Tippett: R.I.P.

Read "Keith Tippett: R.I.P." reviewed by Duncan Heining


Keith Tippett's death on Sunday, 14th June 2020 robbed British and European music of one of its finest talents. The death on any musician of even minor significance often leads many critics reaching for the Thesaurus and tripping over their adjectives in a head-rush of hyperbole. In Keith's case, the simple phrase--"one of music's finest talents"--cuts ...

Felipe Salles: Ugandan Suite

Read "Ugandan Suite" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro


Opera che sembra d'altri tempi, alla ricerca di un terzomondismo ancora sufficientemente pulito da non odorare di world music (nell'accezione più amorfa del termine), quella che ci propone il gruppo allargato (anche a un solista della statura di Dave Liebman) del tenorsassofonista (soprattutto) brasiliano (di San Paolo, ma ormai di stanza a New York) Felipe Salles. ...
