Certo, una foto verrà scattata. Potrebbe persino dimostrare che eri lì, in quel momento, quando ...

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 ...
