Jacqui Dankworth: I Can't Help Pouring My Heart Out
by Bruce Lindsay
Jacqui Dankworth is one of Britain's finest singers; a strikingly effective interpreter of lyrics blessed with a superb voice and the talent to delve deep into the emotional heart of a song.

Something Else! Featured Artist: Genesis
Believe it or not, Phil Collins was once just a member of this group called Genesis. Back then, before Collins turned Mike Rutherford and Tony Banks into his backing band, Genesis had begun its musical life as a witty, sometimes quite theatrical prog-rock project.

An interview with Israel's acclaimed bassist Noam Elron
His dynamic touch with the double bass might not suggest it, but Noam Elron is a late bloomer. The Israel-based musician didn't begin experimenting with the instrument until he was in his mid-20s. On his latest album Fluctuation, Elron shows no sign of inexperience with the double bass; in fact, it sounds like he was born ...

South Africa may well be in the midst of its third jazz renaissance. While the late 1950s saw the rise of legendary artists such as Kippie Moeketsi, Abdullah Ibrahim, and Philip Tabane, the early 1990s marked the emergence of trailblazers Moses Taiwa Molelekwa and Zim Ngqawana. The past five years have born witness to a surge ...

New York may be the major incubator for all that's best in American jazz but there are healthy signs that vibrant scenes are emerging in other cities. In Seattle, there's something going on; an exciting scene is developing around a core of young musicians who see the jazz tradition not as one of emulation, but as ...
