‘A quarterly journal of creative music’
Created by jazz specialists We Jazz Records, and packed full of colourfully-illustrated ‘new stories about music’, each issue has a different title. This time, Brilliant Corners, for Thelonious Monk, pictured on the cover.
Inside: Mikel Patrick Avery by Patrick Romanowski, Miles Okazaki by Andrew Scott, Dirar Kalash by Henry Boon, Dewey Redman by Andy Beta, Kiri Ra! by Wif Stenger, Jazz is Dead by Tina Edwards, and reviews spanning an orchestral rendition of the late American experimental composer Julius Eastman’s 1979 composition ‘Gay Guerrilla’—part of an ongoing Grammy-nominated compendium by LA-based ensemble Wild Up!—and a contemporary homage to Sun Ra.
