Un valido esempio di questo fenomeno è ...

Joe McPhee / Ingebrigt Haker Flaten: Blue Chicago Blues

Punkt Festival 2010
by John Kelman
The trials and tribulations of international travel--flight delays, missing or damaged baggage, and increasing limitations on said baggage--can be enough to frustrate even the most patient and seasoned world traveler.

by Mark Corroto
The brainchild of Swedish saxophonist Jonas Kullhammar, Moserobie Music has released nearly one hundred discs to date in May 2010. Kullhammar's vision to “save the world through good music" might be a bit ambitious, but perhaps the venture is more important than the destination. Moserobie has released music by familiar names including saxophonist Hakon Kornstad and ...
Hakon Kornstad: Dwell Time
by Andrey Henkin
32-year-old Norwegian saxophonist Håkon Kornstad continues to skirt the competing modern Scandinavian jazz aesthetics of Jan Garbarek and Mats Gustafsson.

Kornstad's Dwell Time is, in many ways, a companion piece to that disc in ...
