Sam Sadigursky e i suoi Solomon Diaries
by Gianni Morelenbaum Gualberto
L'estate a New York è sempre stata umida e soffocante. E così l'avvertivano Abraham e Molly Brickman, da poco emigrati dalla Russia. Era il 1908, dopo pochi anni i due coniugi decisero che la metropoli non faceva per loro. Acquistarono un appezzamento di terra a poco prezzo a South Fallsburg, nella contea di Sullivan (detta anche ...

Jihye Lee: Daring Mind
by Angelo Leonardi
Solo un talento eccezionale come Jihye Lee poteva ottenere risultati così brillanti e personali nel campo dell'orchestrazione jazz partendo quasi da zero. Nata a Seoul ed emigrata negli Stati Uniti da adolescente, quando s'iscrisse al Berklee College conosceva pochissimo il linguaggio musicale afro-americano e per niente la sua dimensione orchestrale. Dopo un decennio, studi di perfezionamento ...

by Mike Jurkovic
Listening to bandleader/composer Jihye Lee and her mic-drop orchestra is like watching your life flash before your eyes. You see it all: All the richness of spirit one can attain.
