Since the 1960s, he has been in the center of the ...

Stefano Leonardi, Stefano Pastor, Fridolin Blumer, Heinz Geisser: Conversations about Thomas Chapin
by Giuseppe Segala
Il dato che più risalta all'ascolto di questo CD è la densità: densità espressiva, di ispirazione, timbrica, dialogica, comunicativa.

Mario Pavone: Blue Dialect
by Mark Corroto
Gone are the days where a jazz trio maintains a three month residency, playing nightly in a club. Nor are there world traveling units that refine their skills nightly on the road, working and reworking material. There will be no more piano trios led by the likes of Thelonious Monk and Bill Evans. But have no ...
