All-Female Bands Are a Riot!

By LUDOVICO GRANVASSU

As much as we favor a complete integration of the jazz sexes, this week we feature twenty-four bands or projects with not a single man in sight, actually in hearing.

Vienna Art Orchestra: The Minimalism of Erik Satie

By AAJ ITALY STAFF

La musica di Erik Satie si presta naturalmente a letture ambigue. Un repertorio pianistico da una parte di incantevole ma inquieta leggerezza; dall'altra di scura, mistica drammaticità.
