Jaga Jazzist: '94 - '14

Read "Jaga Jazzist: '94 - '14" reviewed by John Kelman

Read "When We Leave" reviewed by Mario Calvitti


Per il suo quinto album da titolare per la ECM, il trombettista norvegese Mathias Eick riparte da Ravensburg, il precedente lavoro pubblicato nel 2018, mantenendo quelle atmosfere rendendole un po' più sognanti e malinconiche, e confermando in toto i musicisti che vi avevano preso parte.
