Il meglio del 2017 secondo Neri Pollastri
by Neri Pollastri
Selezionare una dozzina di dischi e di concerti per attribuire loro la palma di “migliori dell'anno" può essere un gioco divertente, così come una sciocchezza colossale; in ogni caso, lo si percepisca o meno, è una tremenda responsabilità, nei confronti tanto dei musicisti, quanto degli ascoltatori. Al giorno d'oggi, com'è noto, è ...

Mike Jurkovic's Best Releases of 2017: Pianos Lead the Way
by Mike Jurkovic

by John Kelman
For those who may have noticed, there have been no best of lists coming from yours truly since 2014; sadly, the chronic health problem that has reduced my previous writing pace to a crawl continues without much respite. My best of the year lists have always been predicated upon having reviewed the releases chosen, and with ...

by Vincenzo Roggero
Folletto imprevedibile e difficilmente etichettabile della scena creativa britannica -salta con disinvoltura da lavori orchestrali al piano solo, da composizioni per il teatro e per il cinema a commissioni di musica sinfonica, da collaborazioni con Tim Berne e Bill Bruford a quelle con George Russell e George Gruntz -Django Bates è stato elemento propulsivo fondamentale nella ...
Bjorn Meyer: Provenance
by Karl Ackermann
Bassist Björn Meyer strongly believes that there are multiple functions for bass. Born just outside of Stockholm, he started out playing piano and some guitar but when he randomly picked up a bass, he realized that he had found his instrument. Self-taught, he had been inspired by the diverse styles of Marcus Miller and Jaco Pastorius. ...
