Norma Winstone: Distances
by AAJ Italy Staff
Dopo Chamber Music, uscito alcuni anni fa per la Universal, Norma Winstone, Glauco Venier e Klaus Gesing tornano a registrare assieme, stavolta per ECM, un lavoro eclettico per scelta di brani, ma assai unitario per interpretazione.

Norma Winstone: Distances
by Martin Gladu
Nostalgia is a good thing. Who has not experienced some sort of catharsis through the unexpected surging of special, tender memories? Time stops. An emotive film starts rolling inside the mind.

Norma Winstone with the NDR Bigband: It's Later Than You Think
by Bev Stapleton
The world of the hardened jazz fan has had little room for the “jazz singer" in recent times. Resentment at the popular and commercial success of certain well-known names has resulted in many listeners turning their backs completely on vocal jazz--which is a pity, as they will miss out on enthralling musicians like Norma Winstone.
