Giuseppe Segala's Best Jazz Albums Of 2024

Read "Giuseppe Segala's Best Jazz Albums Of 2024" reviewed by Giuseppe Segala


There is not much to add to this list, other than noting note that the order is alphabetical and, of course, does not reflect any ranking of merit. Without a doubt, 2024 has given us a wealth of wonderful music to listen to and revisit. Unfortunately, many noteworthy albums had to remain beyond the limit of ...

I Dischi del 2024 secondo Ludovico Granvassu

Read "I Dischi del 2024 secondo Ludovico Granvassu" reviewed by Ludovico Granvassu


Spesso molti articoli sulle “migliori uscite dell'anno" iniziano con una premessa quasi apologetica ("questi non sono necessariamente 'i migliori album dell'anno,' ma 'i miei preferiti';" “è tutto soggettivo;" “domani avrei scelto titoli diversi;" “ho potuto selezionare solo dieci album," ecc.)? Queste dichiarazioni sembrano riflettere il disagio del redattore, costretto a riassumere un vasto ecosistema artistico selezionando ...

Ludovico Granvassu's Garden of Jazzy Delights 2024

Read "Ludovico Granvassu's Garden of Jazzy Delights 2024" reviewed by Ludovico Granvassu


Have you noticed how many “best of the year" listicles start with an apologetic preamble ("these are not necessarily 'the best albums of the year' but 'my favorites';" “it's all subjective;" “tomorrow I might have chosen different titles;" “I could only select ten albums" etc.)? Those disclaimers channel the writer's discomfort of having to summarize a ...

Camila Nebbia & Angelica Sanchez: In Another Land, Another Dream

Read "In Another Land, Another Dream" reviewed by John Sharpe


Improvising with an instrument that can leave the tempered scale presents a considerable challenge to a pianist. However Angelica Sanchez aced the exam when she encountered tonally free-spirited Argentinean tenor saxophonist Camila Nebbia at Brooklyn's IBeam in November 2023. Consequently there is the feeling not only of ongoing conversation on the six tracks that make up ...

I dischi del 2024 secondo Giuseppe Segala

Read "I dischi del 2024 secondo Giuseppe Segala" reviewed by Giuseppe Segala


Non c'è molto da aggiungere a questa lista: solo il fatto che l'ordine è alfabetico e, naturalmente, non segue una classifica di merito. Senza dubbio il 2024 ci ha dato tanta bella musica, da ascoltare e riascoltare. Purtroppo tante segnalazioni sono rimaste oltre il confine dei dieci CD: in tanti casi l'inclusione o meno è dovuta ...

Joe Fonda Quartet: Eyes on the Horizon

Read "Eyes on the Horizon" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro


Quattro super-leader, fra cui anche il nostro Tiziano Tononi, per il quale far parte di questo illustre consesso rappresenta un'autentica medaglia, compongono l'organico protagonista di questo notevole album a nome del bassista (nonché, qui ma non solo qui, anche flautista) Joe Fonda, fresco settantenne, una carriera iniziata nei primi anni Ottanta proprio accanto a Wadada Leo ...
