Jerome Wilson's Favorite Jazz Albums Of 2025
by Jerome Wilson
Many things in the world were not faring too well in 2025 but jazz music, as always continued to thrive and evolve throughout the year. The music that really caught my ear this year included a number of imaginative and ambitious large ensemble albums and two powerful solo piano sets from veteran artists who are rarely ...
Angelo Leonardi's Best Jazz Albums Of 2025
by Angelo Leonardi
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. They stand out for their innovative spirit, expressive intensity, and interpretive freshness. The list is not ranked: each title fully deserves its place at the top. Patricia ...
I dischi del 2025 secondo Angelo Leonardi
by Angelo Leonardi
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. ...
Patricia Brennan: Of the Near and Far
by John Sharpe
Vibraphonist Patricia Brennan continues to redefine her creative horizons on Of The Near And Far, a fourth leadership date that expands her sonic blueprint without tempering the imagination that has marked her rise. Each of its predecessors has been completely different, from the horn-rich Breaking Stretch (Pyroclastic, 2024), to the percussion-centered More Touch (Pyroclastic, 2022), to ...

Jack Kenny's Best Jazz Albums Of 2025
by Jack Kenny
A year is an arbitrary time. The list is chronological by how they came to me. The albums that still stand out are Bone Bells (Pyroclastic Records) by Sylvie Courvoisier and Mary Halvorson and the sheer professional expertise of Jed Levy Faces and Places (Self Produced). Both albums, in their different ways, exude creativity and joy. ...
Patricia Brennan: Of the Near and Far
by Angelo Leonardi
In un paio d'anni, Patricia Brennan è balzata ai vertici del jazz più innovativo. Se già il magistrale e pluripremiato Breaking Stretch (Pyroclastic Records, 2024) era un salto avanti rispetto ai precedenti More Touch (Pyroclastic Records, 2022) e Maquishti, stavolta la vibrafonista d'origine messicana presenta un'opera ancor più sorprendente, cambiando organico in un'esplorazione ambiziosa e audace. ...
Patricia Brennan: Of the Near and Far
by Mike Jurkovic
Peerless, vibe-savvy vibraphonist Patricia Brennan minces no fools from the get go, launching Of The Near And Far with the kick-ass lead single (singles? They still make singles? In this day? In this age?) “Antilla." A new jazz standard by any stretch of the imagination, “Antilla" is a sleek, hypnotic beauty that gears you into the ...
Patricia Brennan: Of the Near and Far
by Troy Dostert
Not one to rest on her laurels, vibraphonist/marimbist Patricia Brennan has continued to challenge herself and her listeners with each stop in the studio. Her tireless dedication to her craft is undoubtedly one of the reasons for her meteoric rise in the creative jazz community, which could be charted particularly after 2021 when she released her ...
