Marc Copland: Alter Ego Lausanne 2022
by Dan McClenaghan
Pianist Marc Copland began his jazz journey playing the alto saxophone. It was an electric alto saxophone. Plugged-in saxophones are not heard much in jazz. And that is a shame. It seems like a good idea, juicing up the horn and making new sounds. But Copland soon found this way of making music limiting. He went ...
Joni Mitchell Jazzed: Ten Essential Mitchell Covers
by Ian Patterson
Canadian singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell's spectacular transition from acoustic folk singer in the '60s through folk-rock 'n' roller in the early '70s to leader of jazz-inflected bands in the mid-'70s was a gradual process. This musical transformation can be traced over the course of five albums for Asylum, beginning with the multi-million seller and Grammy-winner Court and ...
I Dischi del 2024 secondo Ludovico Granvassu
by Ludovico Granvassu

Queste dichiarazioni sembrano riflettere il disagio del redattore, costretto a riassumere un vasto ecosistema artistico selezionando ...
Ludovico Granvassu's Garden of Jazzy Delights 2024
by Ludovico Granvassu

Those disclaimers channel the writer's discomfort of having to summarize a ...

Kris Davis and Younee: Keys To The Eighty-Eights
by Doug Collette
The role of pianist has been crucial to the evolution of jazz throughout its history. To that end, Art Tatum, McCoy Tyner and Bill Evans have achieved iconic status over the decades and, in more recent years, Brad Mehldau and Fred Hersch have laid the groundwork for their own ascents to similarly hallowed positions, Meanwhile Diana ...
