Céline Bonacina, Keith Jarrett, Carla Marciano, Mopo, Kneebodyy & Other New Releases [Mondo Jazz Ep. 93]

Another week replete with deliciuos new releases, from those of European jazz queens Céline Bonacina, Yazz Ahmed and Carla Marciano, to the Pan-African manifesto of Russell Gunn's Royal Krunk Jazz Orkestra, to the collaborative trios of Ben Perowski--John Medeski--Chris Speed, Zach Brock--Matt Ulery--Jon Deitemeyer, and Alban Darche--Matthieu Donarier--Meivelyan Jacquot, not to forget the latest by Keith Jarrett and the first by Harish Raghavan. During the second hour we go from the high-powered new album by Kneebody and the 10th anniversary single by Mopo, to Mauro Ottolini's stunningly original sea-shell extravaganza, the over the top outings of the Go: Organic Orchestra & Brooklyn Raga Massive and Rhythmos (Amir Ziv, Billy Martin, Cyro Baptista), the Eastern-European rising stars Makar Kashitsyn and Fima Chupakhin and the wide-ranging music of Enrico Fazio, Julia Hülsmann and Mareike Wiening. What a bonanza to be grateful for! Happy listening! Detailed playlist at https://spinitron.com/RFB/pl/9819514/Mondo-Jazz. Photo credit: Ralf Dombrowski.
