CHARLES MCPHERSON

“With his wide-open sound, Mr. McPherson goes whizzing through his tunes –
zig-zagging through be-bop filigrees, punching out blues lines and
hooting warmly in the high register”

— Jon Pareles, New York Times

Bravo George Varga and the U.T.! Another great article.
Charles McPherson played with Monk once, & Monk came out to see one of Charles' first gigs as a leader in NY - long ago at he Five Spot. Sunday will be a wonderful tribute. Hope to see everyone there!

Charles McPherson in copertina e cover story.

Una nuova strada per un maestro del sassofono, percorsa insieme alla sua famiglia: la figlia Camille, ballerina classica di grande talento, e la moglie Lynn, pianista classica.

Dossier su John Tchicai, il sassofonista danese scomparso dieci anni fa, è stato uno dei personaggi più singolari del jazz, americano ed europeo: dotato di una voce unica, ha ricercato esperienze sempre diverse.

Inoltre: Grant Green, Joao Donato, Amine Mesnaoui, Paolo Sorge, Marquis Hill e molti altri ancora!

Happy Father's Day everyone. Charles is blessed with FOUR children that he deeply loves! Not only that, in the past few days several musicians that he's mentored have called and thanked him for "filling in" as a father figure! Our "Heart's Desire" is that all of you enjoy your families today and throughout the year.
