Aaron Parks: Finding the Way to Little Big
by Jiaowei Hu
"Always beginning. Often perplexed. Drawn to beauty and to the absurd. I play piano, write songs, and take pictures of doors with my phone. A bit odd." So is the pianist's own account on his website, written in a few scribbled sentences. About a decade ago, Aaron Parks created much of a stir through his debut ...

by Doug Collette

Jason Palmer: Rhyme And Reason
by Angelo Leonardi
Trombettista rigoroso e dalla tecnica scintillante, tra i migliori della sua generazione, Jason Palmer non gode della popolarità che merita.

Nello stile ricorda Clifford Brown, che ha rappresentato la sua massima influenza formativa, e ...
