Owen Broder: Heritage
by Jerome Wilson
The cross-pollination of jazz and folk music is nothing new, but saxophonist Owen Broder does push things forward in this exploration of the idea, asking five different composers from varying generations and backgrounds to each write their own take on American folk music for an eight-piece ensemble. Besides Broder himself, the compositions and arrangements ...
Martin Wind: Light Blue
by Geno Thackara
Releasing a defining album is a pretty nice way to celebrate hitting age 50. If it's a particularly solid outing, so much the better.

Il meglio del 2017 secondo Libero Farne
by Libero Farnè
Per quanto mi riguarda le novità più sorprendenti le ho ascoltate a Bolzano (Warped Dreamer e il trio In Love With con i fratelli Ceccaldi) e a Saalfelden (Eve Risser e Roberto Negro).

by C. Andrew Hovan
The landscape is constantly changing when it comes to the viability of jazz recordings in our world of free downloads and pervasive internet exposure.
