The Black Butterflies: Luisa
by Matt Marshall
On their two previous releases, 1 de Mayo (2010) and Rainbows for Ramon (2012), The Black Butterflies built soulful, searching jazz with dense, kinetic layers of Latin and African rhythms. Using both group improvisation and individual statements, they freely, yet unhurriedly, explored the boundaries of their music, often lingering in spots to let the tonal palette ...
Jazz Education: The Next Generation, Part 2
by Karl Ackermann
Part 1 of Jazz Education: The Next Generation explored how the early days of music and--specifically--jazz music was approached through various channels of formal education. The long, arduous process of creating an accepting environment for jazz education necessitated moving the art form from a vaudevillian status through a firewall of academic elitism and prejudice to a ...

Meet Luis Torregrosa
by Tessa Souter and Andrea Wolper
Dr. Luis Torregrosa has been a Super Fan for as long as he can remember; you could even say his love of music is no less than a calling. Based in Trenton, MI (our first Super Fan outside of New York!), Luis has spent the last 45 years of his life not only enjoying the music ...
Charlie Haden Liberation Music Orchestra: Time / Life
by Giuseppe Segala
Due anni dopo la scomparsa di Charlie Haden si pubblica questo ultimo documento della sua Liberation Music Orchestra, un lavoro che il compianto contrabbassista progettò ma che non ebbe modo di portare a compiuta realizzazione. Vessillo del suo impegno civile e umano, l'orchestra era nata nel 1969 raccogliendo una pletora di musicisti straordinari, molti dei quali ...
Randy Kaye Quintet: Brooklyn 1967, May 24th
by Alberto Bazzurro
Ha abbastanza dell'incredibile il destino di queste matrici: registrate, verosimilmente per finire su un doppio LP, nella primavera 1967, in studio, con materiale di sicuro interesse e adeguata resa fonica, sono rimaste invece nel fatidico cassetto (o scaffale che dir si voglia) per quasi mezzo secolo, uscendo a otto anni (nessun anniversario particolare, quindi) dalla morte ...

by Jakob Baekgaard
It is said that we live in The Information Age, but perhaps, it would be more correct to say that we live in the Age of Too Much Information. If there is something you are looking for, you can often find it on the Internet, but the question is whether it is quantity rather than quality. ...

Innovatori della fisarmonica alle prese con la tradizione
by Neri Pollastri
Un nuovo disco a testa per due dei nostri migliori fisarmonicisti -Simone Zanchini e Luciano Biondini -entrambi noti per non attardarsi sulla tradizione, né dello strumento, né del repertorio nazionale. Sorprende perciò trovarli in questo caso entrambi impegnati su materiali che, in prima approssimazione, verrebbe da considerare (in senso non nobile) “da esportazione": il liscio di ...
Jazz From Around The World: Latin America and the Caribbean
by Hrayr Attarian
The focus of the second installment of Jazz from Around the World is Latin America and the Caribbean. Because of both proximity to the US and the shared African heritage, particularly in the Caribbean, jazz was seamlessly and naturally adopted in this part of the world. Of course Latin jazz with its many guises is a ...
