by AAJ Staff
All About Jazz Italia: Il tratto principale della mia musica. Guillaume Grenard: Codificata. AAJI: La qualità che desidero nei musicisti che suonano con me.

Yana Bibb: Afternoon In Paris
by Chris Mosey
In the beginning: Leon Bibb. Born 1922, he sang at the first ever Newport Folk Festival, was a friend of Paul Robeson and, like him, blacklisted in the McCarthy era for his left-wing sympathies. After fighting segregation in Mississippi in the 1960s, he went to live in Canada. Next came his son, Eric ...
Camille Bertault: En Vie
by Angelo Leonardi
Un vivace talento, una vocalist che swinga con naturalezza come le grandi del passato, un'autrice matura. Non ancora trentenne Camille Bertault illumina la scena del canto jazz come solo Cécile McLorin Salvant ha fatto in questi anni, offuscando in un sol colpo decine di cantanti contemporanee.

Benjamin Duboc/Julien Desprez/Julien Loutelier: Tournesol
by Mark Corroto
The free improvisations by Benjamin Duboc, Julien Desprez, and Julien Loutelier on Tournesol or “Sunflower" bring to mind the lyrics to “Love Dance," a minor crossover hit for George Benson in 1980: “From too much talk to loving touches/Love touches when pure emotion takes the moment/We take the chance/Turn up the quiet, love wants to dance." ...
Shauli Einav Quartet: Beam Me Up
by Dave Wayne
Beam Me Up is Shauli Einav's fifth album as a leader, but his first as a new father. This is worth mentioning because jazz is, as we all know, something that is lived. How could such a momentous change not manifest itself in one's music? Here, it's quite evident though nothing about the album itself speaks ...
