Yelena Eckemoff: I Am a Stranger in This World
by Tyran Grillo
To feel estranged from one's own mind is among the quiet terrors of modern life. It is this condition, ancient yet urgently contemporary, that Yelena Eckemoff confronts on I Am a Stranger in This World, a double album that treats the Psalms of David not as scripture to be recited but as psychic terrain to be ...
Dave Douglas: Four Freedoms
by Glenn Astarita
Inspired by Franklin D. Roosevelt's 1941 “Four Freedoms" speech--articulating freedom of speech and expression, freedom of worship, freedom from want and freedom from fear--trumpeter Dave Douglas frames Four Freedoms as both political echo and musical proposition. Although the quartet is geographically dispersed--Marta Warelis, Nick Dunston and Joey Baron residing in Europe, Douglas based in New York--the ...
Yelena Eckemoff: Better Than Gold and Silver
by Tyran Grillo
Some albums attempt to explain sacred text. Others adorn, elevate, or dramatize it. Better Than Gold and Silver does something rarer. It listens. It waits. It receives. Yelena Eckemoff does not set the Psalms of David to music so much as she attends to them, as though all that remains is to hear what still trembles ...

I Dischi del 2025 secondo Ludovico Granvassu
by Ludovico Granvassu
Immortalare la bellezza e la varietà del jazz pubblicato nel 2025 attraverso una “top ten" appare tanto arduo, vano--e alla fine deludente--quanto cercare di fotografare un tramonto sulla costiera amalfitana usando una rudimentale fotocamera digitale e facendo un forellino sul copriobiettivo. Certo, una foto verrà scattata. Potrebbe persino dimostrare che eri lì, in quel momento, quando ...
Ludovico Granvassu's Garden Of Jazzy Delights 2025
by Ludovico Granvassu
Capturing the breathtaking beauty, range, and diversity of jazz released in 2025 through a list of “10 best albums" feels as challenging, vain--and ultimately disappointing--as trying to photograph the Grand Canyon at sunset by placing a pinhole in front of a rudimentary digital camera's lens. Sure, a picture will be taken. It might even prove you ...
