Federica Michisanti: Life on Art
by Neri Pollastri
Non sbaglia un colpo Federica Michisanti, la contrabbassista e compositrice romana che un paio d'anni fa sbancò i referendum nazionali incantando le giurie con Afternoons, il disco del suo quartetto “francese," che la vedeva accanto a musicisti del calibro di Louis Sclavis, Vincent Courtois e Michele Rabbia. Già allora stava lavorando, su commissione del centro d'arte ...
The Top 25 Songs Featuring Clarinet
by Dean Nardi
As Ian Dury might have sung had he played the clarinet, “Hit me with your licorice stick." (That is “rhythm stick" for those not fluent in punk rock.)

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 ...

When looking at today's jazz recording industry, it is hard not to feel that something essential has gone missing: real selection at the source--producers willing to take responsibility, to filter, to choose. This is not a new phenomenon, but one that now seems to be reaching a breaking point. In the overwhelming flood of releases, identifying ...
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 ...
I dischi del 2025 secondo Paolo Peviani
by Paolo Peviani
Si avverte sempre più la mancanza di una selezione a monte, di produttori capaci di filtrare e fare scelte. È un trend che non scopriamo oggi, ma che sembra ormai vicino a un punto di rottura. Nel mare magnum delle uscite discografiche diventa sempre più difficile individuare lavori di reale valore. Per fortuna, almeno ...
