Karen Street/ Streetworks: Streetworks/ Unfurled

Read "Streetworks/ Unfurled" reviewed by Fiona Ord-Shrimpton


Women in British jazz, the stand-out sonically wonderful ones, you just don't hear them all too often, and finding them is like chasing unicorns. Outside of stoic jazz hoovers there are still too few mainstream listeners who suck it up these days, and that never helps. In the popular world of musical vacuum, perhaps the only ...

Richard Galliano: Sentimentale

Read "Sentimentale" reviewed by Neri Pollastri


Disco “quasi" di jazz per un Richard Galliano passato dalla musette al tango, da Ron Carter a Michel Portal, da Bach alla canzone d'autore, da Wynton Marsalis al trio con Larry Grenadier e Clarence Penn. Ma che qui, assieme ad altri due strumenti armonici--il pianoforte di Tamir Hendelman e la chitarra di Anthony Wilson, peraltro entrambi ...

Rare and Unusual Instruments in Jazz

Read "Rare and Unusual Instruments in Jazz" reviewed by Hrayr Attarian


Historically the cornet was the quintessential jazz instrument but over a century of its evolution other instruments have also become part of the regular jazz armamentarium. These include common ones such as the piano, saxophone, bass and drums to the more occasionally appearing violin, clarinet and other percussion instruments.

Musette Explosion: Introducing Musette Explosion

Read "Introducing Musette Explosion" reviewed by Angelo Leonardi


Will Holshouser, Matt Munisteri e Marcus Rojas scrivono una nuova pagina nella lunga relazione che lega il jazz alla musette e, innanzi tutto, hanno il merito di non riproporre le varie tipologie dello stile manouche (a partire dalla matrice storica di Django Reinhardt e Stéphane Grappelli) scegliendo semmai di seguire un percorso analogo a quello di ...

Richard Galliano: Sentimentale

Read "Sentimentale" reviewed by Hrayr Attarian

His breathtaking instrumental facility combined with a creative ingenuity makes his oeuvre, particularly the series of superb albums on Dreyfus Jazz, uniquely satisfying. In view of this, his release on the ...

Luca Ciarla: Violinair

Read "Violinair" reviewed by Duncan Heining


"I would be interested to know what you think of my record." The reluctant reviewer takes the CD, heart sinking, thinking to themselves, “I very much doubt it." On this occasion, I am, however, grateful to Italian violinist, Luca Ciarla. He's certainly not without self-assurance but, fortunately, that confidence is well-matched by the genuine talent evident ...
