Adam O'Farrill: For These Streets

Read "For These Streets" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

Mary Halvorson: About Ghosts

Read "About Ghosts" reviewed by Mike Jurkovic

by Mike Jurkovic

On her second resiliency test of the year--her first, the fiery Bone Bells (Pyroclastic, 2025) alongside hot-house pianist Sylvie Courvoisier still rattles the playlist--Halvorson's About Ghosts tells of wide open spaces with ...

Read "I dischi del 2024 secondo Angelo Leonardi" reviewed by Angelo Leonardi

by Angelo Leonardi

Indico i dischi (sia italiani che stranieri) che ho più apprezzato e soprattutto amato nel 2024. Quelli che più mi hanno arricchito e appassionato, quelli che mi sono ritrovato a riascoltare spesso.
