  9. Aktuell in der HörBar: Tobias Hoffmann Jazz Orchestra – Innuendo

    … Die Mischung aus relativ simplem Grundmaterial, das dann in jeder Komposition zur Entfaltung gebracht wird, bei der die Klangsumme wie bei einer Pflanze wächst und zum Blühen gebracht wird, ist unwiderstehlich. …

  15. On 6 May 2024, we lost a dear friend of ASMAC, Bill Holman at the age of 96. Willis was often in attendance at luncheons, teaching masterclasses, referenced by inspiration and arrangements performed by others, and a genuine friend and nice fellow—a gentleman—to all who had the honor of meeting him.

    Read the current tribute to Bill on the ASMAC.org website.

  16. Musical Interlude: Remember what I said about big bands and Halloween music? I was listening to more of it today, and was taken with the joyful sense of fun it had. These were the days when Halloween was good all-American fun, with no religious resentment that has arisen in the last few decades. Anyway, here's a track from a great American jazz artist...

    "The Skeleton in the Closet," performed by Louis Armstrong.
