It’s a sad day for jazz as the world-renowned pianist Esbjörn Svensson, leader of the group E.S.T., has passed away. Truly considered a modern jazz pioneer, he can be credited with some of the most innovative and exciting jazz to date. As one of the few jazzmen able to breach through to more mainstream audiences, he will surely be missed. We truly admire all that he has accomplished for our art and we offer our most sincere condolences to his family and friends.

The Montreal International Jazz Festival has finally announced its 2008 indoor concert line-up. We should note that this festival holds a very special place in our hearts since it has greatly contributed, over the years, to our discovery of jazz and its many talented artists. This year’s edition is particularly exciting for us in that it marks the launch of Nextbop.com. We were therefore extremely pleased upon learning that some of our favorite Nextbop artists will be featured in Montreal this summer. Among some of the notables are Jacky Terrasson, Brad Mehldau, Yaron Herman, E.S.T. and Christian Scott. For the complete line-up we invite you to visit the Montreal Jazz Festival’s official website.
