Naïssam Jalal: Landscapes of Eternity

Read "Landscapes of Eternity" reviewed by Ian Patterson

by Ian Patterson

It is impossible to spend any significant amount of time travelling in India without being affected by both its beauty and its poverty. The contrasts between the choking, sprawling metropolises and the river-crossed countryside--with its emerald rice fields and stepped tea plantations--are striking.

Il 2025 sarà ricordato da addetti ai lavori e jazzofili per l'altissima qualità e la notevole varietà delle proposte discografiche, animate da forze policentriche e da musiche non sempre direttamente jazzistiche, ma accomunate a questa estetica da spirito, tecniche e soluzioni formali.
