Points of View: Celebrating Dave Holland

Read "Points of View: Celebrating Dave Holland" reviewed by Ludovico Granvassu

by Ludovico Granvassu

Birthdays offer an annual opportunity to celebrate. Milestone birthdays offer something more: a chance to take stock. But when a towering figure in jazz turns 80 after six decades of music-making, how do we even begin to take the measure of a musical life so rich, so wide-ranging, and so influential? A comprehensive interview ...

Read "2025 Year in Review by the Numbers: The Magnificent Seven and the Pluralism of Taste" reviewed by Marek J. Śmietański

by Marek J. Śmietański

My Journey From Sports Analytics to Counting Jazz I've always had a soft spot for statistics and rankings--especially those that try to say something more than just “what people like." This is probably a result of my rigorous mathematical-informatics education and the scientific research I conducted over a dozen years ago on classification and ranking methods ...

In a tumultuous year, these albums provided a shelter in the storm, with no shortage of intriguing stylistic directions and cross-pollinations. New directions in post-minimalism mingled with reimaginings of folk songs; chamber music crossed paths with modern classical and cool jazz. Stories Of life Triosence Sony Music

Mark Sullivan's Favorite Jazz Albums of 2025

Read "Mark Sullivan's Favorite Jazz Albums of 2025" reviewed by Mark Sullivan

by Mark Sullivan

There must be an echo in here: like just about everyone else, I observe that there was a lot of great music released in what was otherwise an unsettling year. They ranged from hard bop (Words Fall Short, Belonging) to fusion (Hard Believer, Live at Berlin) to experimental (Trio of Bloom). Experimental guitarist Nels Cline appears ...

I Dischi del 2025 secondo Ludovico Granvassu

Read "I Dischi del 2025 secondo Ludovico Granvassu" reviewed by Ludovico Granvassu

by Ludovico Granvassu

Immortalare la bellezza e la varietà del jazz pubblicato nel 2025 attraverso una “top ten" appare tanto arduo, vano--e alla fine deludente--quanto cercare di fotografare un tramonto sulla costiera amalfitana usando una rudimentale fotocamera digitale e facendo un forellino sul copriobiettivo. Certo, una foto verrà scattata. Potrebbe persino dimostrare che eri lì, in quel momento, quando ...

Ludovico Granvassu's Garden Of Jazzy Delights 2025

Read "Ludovico Granvassu's Garden Of Jazzy Delights 2025" reviewed by Ludovico Granvassu

by Ludovico Granvassu

Capturing the breathtaking beauty, range, and diversity of jazz released in 2025 through a list of “10 best albums" feels as challenging, vain--and ultimately disappointing--as trying to photograph the Grand Canyon at sunset by placing a pinhole in front of a rudimentary digital camera's lens. Sure, a picture will be taken. It might even prove you ...

Anouar Brahem: After the Last Sky

Read "After the Last Sky" reviewed by Scott Gudell

by Scott Gudell

Although ECM Records has released straight-ahead jazz, free form and more, many of their recordings sweep over listeners with mysterious, ethereal and hypnotic sounds creating alluring siren calls. When those sessions are taking place with an ECM release on the horizon, it is easy to imagine the artists are thinking about 'where's the mystery?'--which is what ...

Anouar Brahem: After the Last Sky

Read "After the Last Sky" reviewed by Mario Calvitti

by Mario Calvitti

Fin dal suo esordio la musica del suonatore di oud tunisino Anouar Brahem ha oscillato tra i tre poli della musica tradizionale classica araba, l'improvvisazione jazzistica e la musica classica europea di stampo cameristico, generalmente adattando le quantità di ogni singolo componente ai musicisti scelti per interpretarla. Dopo i primi due album nei quali ...
