2011: The Year In Jazz
by Ken Franckling
The ebb and flow of jazz in 2011 was marked by a Grammy Awards coup, a Grammy dustup, economic changes that consolidated the recording industry a bit, impacted clubs in various locales, and provided some new opportunities.

Jeff Gauthier: Open
by Ian Patterson
