Read "Around The Horn" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

Tyler Blanton: Gotham

Read "Tyler Blanton: Gotham" reviewed by Dave Wayne


Tyler Blanton is a young vibraphonist and composer whose second album, Gotham, is nothing short of remarkable. The great playing by Blanton and his extraordinarily talented young band aside, Blanton's compositions are really what sets Gotham apart from the vast majority of new recordings by equally wonderful young jazz musicians. One can only guess that New ...

Read "Jass" reviewed by Angelo Leonardi


Dopo il debutto nel luglio 2011 al festival di Berlino, il collettivo franco-svizzero-statunitense presenta la prima incisione, il cui titolo ha un duplice (e addirittura triplice) significato: è un acronimo formato dalle prime lettere dei quattro nomi protagonisti, si collega al nome arcaico di questa musica e indica un gioco di carte (detto anche Chibre) molto ...

JC Sanford Orchestra: Views from the Inside

Read "JC Sanford Orchestra: Views from the Inside" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

Christine Jensen Jazz Orchestra: Habitat

Read "Habitat" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky
