by Mark Corroto
Who needs poetry in an age of internet memes, infinite scrolling and artificial intelligence? Poems ask us to linger over words, to discover meaning in silence as much as in language. Memes, by contrast, are consumed in an instant and forgotten just as quickly. We live in a culture that increasingly prizes immediacy over reflection, image ...

Randy Ingram: Sound Within
by Dan McClenaghan
Everybody digs Bill Evans. Beginning in the late 1950s and early 1960s, Evans revolutionized the piano trio format, bringing a near equality of input of the three instruments into the mix. However, the piano itself was still the main voice. Bassist Scott LaFaro and drummer Paul Motian were his running mates. Sunday At The Village Vanguard ...

The Phoenix Trio: Tomorrow Is Today
by Alberto Bazzurro
Registrato all'Ornithology di Brooklyn a fine marzo 2025, questo album è l'esatto ritratto di una generazione (o meglio di una costola della stessa) che ha sposato la causa di un jazz molto ritorto sul passato adattandogli un suono--con tutte le virgolette del caso--contemporaneo. Un suono scuro, pastoso, concentrato, a sua volta un po' ritorto su sé ...
