Will be binging Trio HLK and listening closely to the Miles Okazaki album when time allows..... then Joe Lovano. Thanks!

I often listen to Rudresh Mahanthappa when stair climbing in the morning (my elliptical trainer is broken)

Released a few years ago, but hey

I agree that this is the shape of some things to come.

But, that tune is Joao Bosco's. He's 78 years old and that tune has been around for a long time.

Hamilton De Holanda is a brilliant 10 string mandolinist. He's 48 and has been well known for many years. (I had an opportunity to study with him briefly 10 or 12 years ago, iirc.).

The singer is new to me and has earned her way into elite company.

Brazilian Jazz, of which this is an excellent example, has not become well known in the USA, except to Bossa Nova. But it's way broader than that and is not at all the same as American jazz.

Canto da Praya is an old tune?

De Holanda with Spanish pianist Chano Domínguez. Not great sound quality. They did a collab album titled Chabem not long ago.

I heard Gilad's latest composition and remembered this thread; found it on page 2. Oh well...
