Editor's Note
Jazz is this issue’s cover story. Roberto Ottaviano and Alexander Hawkins’s “Charlie's Blue Skylight” is a stunning homage to Charles Mingus. We catch up with the Apulian saxophonist to speak about his relationship with the music and repertoire of the American double bassist and to discuss his latest album. The world music, traditional music and folk page features this week’s recommended album, which Is by Ghalia Benali, Kiya Tabassian & Constantinople’s “In the footsteps of Rumi”. It follows Femina Riden’s “Kalenda Maya”, Damien O'Kane & Ron Block’s “Banjophonics” and Fabrizio Poggi & Enrico Pesce’s “Hope”. For the live music page, we report from the XXVII edition of the Ethnos Festival, held in the Vesuvian area. For Vision & Music column, Paolo Mercurio presents “John Axelrod, violini immortali tra investimenti finanziari e tradizione organologica”. We continue with the reviews of Musica Nuda’s “Girotondo De Andrè” and the Dino Mignogna’s volume, “La musica possibile. Dal cilindro all’auto-tune, storia del rapporto tra popular music e tecnologia”. Finally, Valerio Corzani’s photo shows Yasmine Sannino.
