The question always arises: Does the listener have to know the artwork ...

I Dischi del 2025 secondo Ludovico Granvassu

by Ludovico Granvassu
January 5, 2026

Immortalare la bellezza e la varietà del jazz pubblicato nel 2025 attraverso una “top ten" appare tanto arduo, vano--e alla fine deludente--quanto cercare di fotografare un tramonto sulla costiera amalfitana usando una rudimentale fotocamera digitale e facendo un forellino sul copriobiettivo. Certo, una foto verrà scattata. Potrebbe persino dimostrare che eri lì, in quel momento, quando ...

by Ludovico Granvassu
January 3, 2026

Capturing the breathtaking beauty, range, and diversity of jazz released in 2025 through a list of “10 best albums" feels as challenging, vain--and ultimately disappointing--as trying to photograph the Grand Canyon at sunset by placing a pinhole in front of a rudimentary digital camera's lens.

The five U.S. jazz albums and the five Italian jazz albums selected here represent, in my view, the very best of what was released in 2025.

I dischi del 2025 secondo Angelo Leonardi

by Angelo Leonardi
December 23, 2025

I cinque dischi di jazz internazionale e i cinque di jazz italiano qui selezionati si collocano, a mio parere, ai vertici di quanto è stato pubblicato nel 2025. Si distinguono per forza innovativa, intensità espressiva e freschezza interpretativa. L'elenco non segue un ordine di valore: ogni titolo occupa, a pieno titolo, il proprio posto al vertice. ...
