Welcome to the official My Space page for JAZZWISE the UK's leading jazz monthly and the only magazine devoted to covering the entire spectrum, from cutting-edge contemporary jazz, mainstream, fusion and improv to jazz-club crossover and world-jazz.
RIP Ian Carr - a great musician, writer and friend - here are two videos filmed at Jazzwise's 10th Birthday Week at Pizza Express - featuring Nucleus Revisited. Ian was in attendance that night and loved every minute of it - we hope you enjoy these clips as well.
