I Dischi del 2024 secondo Ludovico Granvassu

by Ludovico Granvassu
January 2, 2025

Spesso molti articoli sulle “migliori uscite dell'anno" iniziano con una premessa quasi apologetica ("questi non sono necessariamente 'i migliori album dell'anno,' ma 'i miei preferiti';" “è tutto soggettivo;" “domani avrei scelto titoli diversi;" “ho potuto selezionare solo dieci album," ecc.)? Queste dichiarazioni sembrano riflettere il disagio del redattore, costretto a riassumere un vasto ecosistema artistico selezionando ...

Ludovico Granvassu's Garden of Jazzy Delights 2024

by Ludovico Granvassu
December 31, 2024

Have you noticed how many “best of the year" listicles start with an apologetic preamble ("these are not necessarily 'the best albums of the year' but 'my favorites';" “it's all subjective;" “tomorrow I might have chosen different titles;" “I could only select ten albums" etc.)?

I dischi del 2024 secondo Angelo Leonardi

by Angelo Leonardi
December 20, 2024

Indico i dischi (sia italiani che stranieri) che ho più apprezzato e soprattutto amato nel 2024. Quelli che più mi hanno arricchito e appassionato, quelli che mi sono ritrovato a riascoltare spesso. Tra il primo indicato e l'ultimo non c'è un ordine di valore, ma solo alfabetico. Non so quanto sia possibile dividere la valutazione “professionale" ...

Giacomo Merega: Opus Dichotomous

Read "Opus Dichotomous" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto
December 18, 2024

The title adopted by Giacomo Merega and Joe Morris' duo release Opus Dichotomous might be a false flag. This recording is anything but an exercise in contrasts.
