Joe Lovano: Paramount Quartet
by Sue Yang
The risk with a new Joe Lovano recording is that listeners may hear the résumé before the band. The Blue Note Records years, the long triangular history with Paul Motian and Bill Frisell, and the more austere ECM Records terrain of Trio Tapestry (2019) all sit close to the surface of Lovano's sound. Paramount Quartet quickly ...

Since 1959, when he arrived in New York from his native Detroit, Ron Carter has enjoyed an unparalleled career. ...
Chris Potter: Osawatomie Brown
by Ludovico Granvassu
Dire che Chris Potter sia uno dei sassofonisti più portentosi della scena contemporanea è un po' come raccontare a un napoletano perché la pizza è buona.

Alive with Ghosts ...
