Jane Ira Bloom: Wild Lines: Improvising Emily Dickinson
by Mark Sullivan
Soprano saxophonist/composer Jane Ira Bloom follows up her trio album Early Americans (Outline Records, 2016) with a concept album for quartet.

Jane Ira Bloom: Wild Lines: Improvising Emily Dickinson
by Troy Dostert
When you think about it, it's not that hard to see the affinity between soprano saxophonist Jane Ira Bloom and Emily Dickinson.

Bloom is ...

Il Meglio del 2016 Secondo Ludovico Granvassu
by Ludovico Granvassu
Che anno! La musica di alta qualità continua ad arrivare inarrestabile. La preparazione di questa lista è stata quasi dolorosa per la scelta crudele di limitare il numero dei CD a 12 e quello dei concerti a 10. Ma tant'è. Questi saranno CD e concerti che rimarranno per me indelebilmente legati al 2016, con una menzione ...
