Over the last ten years Jazzwise has become the biggest-selling jazz magazine in Britain. In fact, it now outsells all the other UK jazz magazines put together. With agenda-setting news and comment, a comprehensive gig guide, in-depth features, exclusive interviews and over 100 CDs, books and DVDs reviewed in each issue it offers an excellent companion for music students with ambitions to perfect their instrument.

Latest Issue:

Jazzwise magazine’s March issue is out now and has an exclusive cover feature with legendary bassist Ron Carter as he joins forces with Swiss piano-and-drum stars Michael and Florian Arbenz – for a fiery trio session recoded at their studio in the Swiss Alps. It’s an eye-opening and revealing interview with one of the greatest living jazz.

Also inside are interviews with acclaimed UK trumpeter Yazz Ahmed, Blue Note-signed pianist Renee Rosnes, Mercury-nominated pianist Elliot Galvin, plus a deep dive behind the scenes of the stunning Kenny Wheeler Legacy project which has recorded some of the revered Canadian trumpeter’s ‘lost scores’ with a star-packed cast.

There are also Taking Off interviews with fast rising pianist Matyas Gayer and Geordie jazz-fusion band KNATS, The Player focuses on acclaimed German saxophonist Nicole Johänntgen, and top ECM-signed trumpeter Avishai Cohen reveals his Turning Point. And Scottish jazz guitar great Jim Mullen selects the albums he can’t live without in Takes Five.

All this plus the UK’s most extensive album reviews, news and gig guide…
