Not three months after the film's premiere at South By Southwest this past March, comes ...
The Politics of Dancing: Jazz and Protest, Part 2
by Karl Ackermann
Part 1 of Jazz and Protest took an in-depth look at two landmark artists and the songs that laid the groundwork for protest within the jazz community.

Il meglio del 2016 secondo Angelo Leonardi
by Angelo Leonardi
La discografia jazzistica del 2016 evidenzia l'inarrestabile creatività di veterani come Henry Threadgill o Leo Smith e di giovani protagonisti come JD Allen o Darcy James Argue. Personalmente sono stato colpito dalla prova significativa di un artista ancora in ascesa come Ryan Keberle e da quella maiuscola di un compositore e leader ancora ...
