Wadada Leo Smith, fenomenologia di un maestro
by Luca Canini
Non tutti i maestri sono uguali. C'è chi sceglie di farsi da parte, riducendo al minimo gli sconfinamenti, gli azzardi, i contatti con situazioni potenzialmente rischiose.

Jamie Saft, Steve Swallow and Bobby Previte: The New Standard
by Glenn Astarita
