Her early crowning jewel—the jazz opera Escalator ...

Ernie Watts Quartet: Wheel of Time

Read "Wheel of Time" reviewed by Jack Bowers


On the Buddy Rich band's album Big Swing Face (circa 1967), Ernie Watts unleashes a blazing alto sax solo on the title track that is guaranteed to send chills up and down the spine and leave listeners wondering, “How did he do that?"

I 10 Cd nel CD-Player di... Emanuele Maniscalco

Read "I 10 Cd nel CD-Player di... Emanuele Maniscalco" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero


01. Massimiliano Milesi, Giacomo Papetti -Dimidiam (UR Rrecords -2015). Basso e sax tenore. Mi piace questa formazione minima ma articolata, che per me trova il suo punto di riferimento attuale nel duo degli islandesi Óskar Guðjónsson e Skúli Sverisson. Max e Giacomo, che sono anche carissimi amici, mi conducono in parte verso quelle atmosfere, trascinandole ...

Lucian Ban: Songs From Afar

Read "Songs From Afar" reviewed by Budd Kopman


It is a truism that musical art, in whatever genre, entails much more than just the technical, either physical or theoretical. True art also has that ineffable something, which could be described as the soul of the performer touching the soul of the listener.

It seems like every company in the sound game has multiple models to offer, catering to nearly every listener demographic. But that doesn't mean there aren't developments to be found in ...
