Size Matters: (Mostly New) Jazz for Big Bands and Orchestras, Part 4
by Ludovico Granvassu

Jonas Cambien Trio: Nature Hath Painted The Body
by John Sharpe
On its third outing, Norwegian-based Belgian pianist Jonas Cambien's Trio again sticks to the successful gambits which distinguished A Zoology of the Future (Clean Feed, 2016) and We Must Mustn't We (Clean Feed, 2018), but with enough novel switcheroos to keep things fresh.
