Umbria Jazz 14 Perugia, varie sedi 11-20.07.2014 Lo spettacolo “Divertimentificio," “Industria del divertimento": orribili neologismi, coniati anni orsono poi caduti in disuso, per denotare una delle vocazioni trainanti dei centri balneari della costa romagnola.

Laurie Antonioli: Songs Of Shadow, Songs Of Light: The Music Of Joni Mitchell
by Dan Bilawsky
The concept of a jazz-informed program of Joni Mitchell tunes isn't exactly novel anymore. Herbie Hancock's high profile River: The Joni Letters (Verve, 2007) took home two Grammy Awards; vocalist Tierney Sutton got some well-deserved attention when she put her own spin on Mitchell's work with After Blue (BFM, 2013); somewhat under-the-radar releases from artists like ...

Kendrick Scott and His Convictions
by K. Shackelford
Everybody sings the praises of Kendrick Scott. The New York Times quickly named him as one of “Five Drummers Whose Time Is Now." On the drums, he transforms into a masterful and exquisite sonic architect whose work is filled with imaginative capacity. Yet Scott is what they call a triple threat--filling roles not only as a ...
