Read "Karate" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Se il karate è l'"arte della mano vuota," quest'ultimo CD registrato per Leo Records dal sassofonista russo Alexey Kruglov insieme al Jaak Sooaar Trio ha colto in pieno la profondità di quest'arte.

Ensemble 5: Solstice

Read "Solstice" reviewed by Glenn Astarita
