Jon Irabagon: Inaction is an Action & Behind the Sky
by Doug Collette
It's a rare musician who can find ways to excel in multiple contexts, but saxophonist/composer Jon Irabagon is just such an artist. His timeline contains entries as collaborator as well as leader and his respective contributions are equally distinctive, suggesting his humility is equaled only by his independence. Because the nuances of his compositions are as ...

Raul Agraz: Between Brothers
by Jack Bowers
Venezuelan-born and classically trained trumpeter Raul Agraz makes an impressive North American debut with Between Brothers, a vibrant album of Latin-oriented jazz whose harmonic and rhythmic quotients are about as strong and steady as one could wish. As is the case in other contexts these days, the term “brothers" is presumably used in a metaphorical sense, ...

Samuel Torres Group: Forced Displacement
by Dan Bilawsky
When Chamber Music America awarded Colombian-born, New York-based percussionist Samuel Torres a New Jazz Works grant in 2012, the wheels started spinning in his mind.

by Libero Farnè
Compie dieci anni il “nuovo" festival di Bologna, proteso a rinverdire i fasti dello storico festival che chiuse i battenti nel 1975, al quale seguirono negli anni Ottanta e Novanta vari tentativi di ripresa presto falliti.
