Anthony Braxton: Quartet (Moscow) 2008
by AAJ Italy Staff
A giudicare dalle fotografie riprodotte nelle quattro pagine di copertina realizzate sulla mitica Piazza Rossa di Mosca, la comprensione della Composition No. 367 B è affidata allo “spazio" e al “tempo" in cui è stata effettuata.

Marilyn Crispell: Uncompromising Power and Grace
by Lloyd N. Peterson Jr.
Her notes crash like waves at sea on a stormy winter's night; they gently float and slowly fall like early morning mist; yet it's the silence--the silence between the notes--which provides the haunting poetic beauty that is the music of pianist Marilyn Crispell.Lloyd Peterson: Is there a decrease in listeners for creative music today?
