Wolfgang Muthspiel: Where The River Goes
by Luigi Sforza
Per poter apprezzare When the River Goes, occorre saper vivere (potendo farlo) ad un ritmo lento. L'ultima esperienza discografica di Wolfgang Muthspiel non si presta ad un ascolto frugale, né tantomeno superficiale. Necessita di tempo e dedizione, neglige ogni forma di voracità fruitiva, ha bisogno di essere gustata nei minimi dettagli, nota per nota, accordo per ...

by Karl Ackermann
In Part 1 of Women in Jazz we looked at the historical position of women in early jazz.

One hundred years after Lil Hardin held ...
Bobo Stenson Trio: War Orphans
by Dan McClenaghan
Manfred Eicher started ECM Records in 1969. Fifty years later, in 2019, with over 1500 releases to its name, the label continues to offer up compelling and unclassifiable music. And since the catalog is deep, and early-in-the-effort recordings have become harder to find, ECM periodically re-releases some of these gems, tagging them Touchstones. Early ...
