Stefano Bollani at Asti Musica 2017
by Nicola Sacco
The 22nd edition of Astimusica featured a solo piano concert by Stefano Bollani. More than a traditional piano concert, his “one man show" with no playlist was a tribute to the art of improvisation.

by John Kelman

Bobo Rondelli e Piero Ciampi cantano Livorno
by Neri Pollastri
Piero Ciampi è oggi un nome noto. A lui è intitolato perfino uno dei più importanti concorsi musicali italiani dedicati alla canzone d'autore, che ha da poco celebrato il ventennale.

Refraction: Inerrant Space
by Mark Sullivan
Refraction is an Australian piano trio led by drummer Chris Broomhead, who also composed most of the music. He is joined by pianist Brenton Foster (who contributes two tunes) and double bassist Jordan Tarento. Inerrant Space definitely does not sound like a “drummer's album." It's very much a group sound, as the collective group name implies. ...
