They often carried out sound effect cues, sent from studios to theaters, for silent films. This left drummers with the responsible task of mimicking the sounds of hurricanes, car crashes and thunderstorms from ...

Charles Lloyd Trios: Chapel, Ocean

by Stefano Merighi
Cosa deve ancora dimostrare Charles Lloyd, dopo oltre 60 anni di carriera al vertice del jazz (con le dovute pause)? Nulla, è chiaro.

Oded Tzur: My Prophet

by Chris May

The tenor saxophonist's fifth album, My Prophet, is his most affecting yet. Simultaneously corporeal and metaphysical, soulful and cerebral. Inexplicably, despite having four breathtakingly singular and near-perfect albums out and about ...
