Jazzfestival Saalfelden 2022
by Stefano Merighi
Jazzfestival Saalfelden 2022 Saalfelden, Austria 18-21.8.2022 Spesso i lettori si abituano a leggere in diversi report sulla scena jazzistica accenni alla “scena scandinava," come se questa fosse un monolite che si aggira nel più ampio panorama afro-euro-americano.

In March 2011 TJO made their "European debut" when they toured Germany and Austria with Hegdal and Redman.
Anders Lønne Grønseth: Multiverse
by Chris May
Ever since Jan Garbarek put Norwegian jazz on the map, and especially so after the international success of his rigorously ascetic Officium (ECM) in 1994, the music has acquired a reputation for being not entirely passionless, but emotionally withdrawn. The “Scandinavian sound" which Garbarek championed was conceived in collaboration with ECM label founder Manfred Eicher as ...
