Phil Woods: The Children Suite
by AAJ Italy Staff
Winnie the Pooh e il bebop? Certo non è proprio un rapporto palese e intuitivo, ma il mondo anglofono ha un legame con le poesie per bambini di A.A. Milne ben diverso dal nostro, una realtà che apre possibilità espressive interessanti anche nel jazz. Phil Woods ha sempre amato i cicli poetici di Milne, tanto da ...
Nina Sheldon: Harvest
by Andrew Velez
Songstress and pianist Nina Sheldon's readings have a savvy, smiling quality. If she has been around the block some, she is nevertheless not going to lay too heavy a trip on us.

Phil Woods: The Children's Suite
by Andrew Velez
Well of course. NEA Jazz Master Phil Woods' The Children's Suite, inspired by the verses of A.A. Milne. Woods has been widely and wildly prolific throughout his career since his early small group days as a teenager, blowing ebulliently with Jimmy Raney and George Wallington, so it should be no surprise that he's created musical settings ...
Peter Yellin: How Long Has This Been Going On?
