Ludovico Granvassu's 2021 Sonic Delights
by Ludovico Granvassu
Jazz is not a competitive sport and “Best Ofs" are misnomers. End of the year listicles have no bearing on the artistic standing of the albums they include, or on those they neglect, just like a five star review doesn't make the album it graces any better than it already is.

Thana Alexa: ONA
by Angelo Leonardi
Ci giunge con un po' di ritardo questo secondo disco della talentuosa vocalist e compositrice Thana Alexa, ma va assolutamente considerato.
