This episode has several excellent contemporary trumpet/cornet/flugelhorn players scattered throughout the playlist: players like Brian Groder (new recording Luminous Arcs ), Dan Rosenboom, Kirk Knuffke, Nate Wooley (with Harris Eisenstadt), Ron Horton and Rob Mazurek (Chicago Underground Quartet).

Fredrik Lundin, Francesco Cusa, and Gianni Lenoci
by Maurice Hogue
It's just one of those happy coincidences that bassist Lisa Mezzacappa, whose name is likely Italian in orgin, is one of the featured artists in this episode, because there's noticeable Italian content as well. Mezzacappa's latest with her ensemble Six, is inspired by the short stories of Italo Calvino (also Italian). Music from Italian musicians comes ...

chuffDRONE, Treesearch & Mark Segger
by Maurice Hogue
This episode is a mixed bag of some newer releases and some recent ones definitely worthy of revisiting.

Jim Black, Mario Santos, William Parker, Dave Sewelson and More
by Maurice Hogue
Is it too early to choose a “best-of" for 2020.

Reckon came out on the Intakt label from Switzerland in January, so be on ...
