Wayne Shorter: The Blue Note Albums
by Maurizio Zerbo
Cinque ore di musica sublime per immergersi nell'universo shorteriano. Per i palati sopraffini, un'occasione imperdibile per riascoltare alcune delle gemme del catalogo Blue Note. Cosa distingue queste dalle coeve incisioni hard-bop? Come ben testimonia The All Seeing Eye, è il proiettare le più avanzate idee melodiche, armoniche e ritmiche del quintetto davisiano verso atmosfere più sospese ...
Larry Coryell: Aurora Coryellis
by Glenn Astarita
In the 1970s musicians were spinning new threads on the jazz language and guitarist Larry Coryell prominently figured into these schematics while also designated as one of the grandfathers of jazz fusion, namely due to his electrified work with vibraphonist Gary Burton on Duster (RCA, 1967). This 3-CD box set complete with a detailed booklet captures ...
Three Views of Jaco: Weather Report: The Legendary Live Tapes 1978-1981 / JACO: The Film & Original Soundtrack
by John Kelman
It's hard to believe that, despite being gone for 28 years, bassist/composer Jaco Pastorius remains not just an important figure in the world of jazz, but beyond its broadest purview as well.

Bologna Jazz Festival 2015
by Libero Farnè
Compie dieci anni il “nuovo" festival di Bologna, proteso a rinverdire i fasti dello storico festival che chiuse i battenti nel 1975, al quale seguirono negli anni Ottanta e Novanta vari tentativi di ripresa presto falliti. Organizzata dall'associazione Bologna in Musica, questa edizione consolida la formula avviata negli anni passati, coprendo un intero mese di programmazione ...
