Jazz releases, week 41

This week's jazz releases highlight a diverse range of artistic expressions, from Björk's live orchestral collaboration with the Hamrahlíð Choir to Miles Okazaki's solo guitar exploration of Thelonious Monk's entire catalog. New projects from Meshell Ndegeocello, Gayance, and ALA.NI with Adrian Younge reflect a continued interest in reinterpretation and emotional depth, while archival releases and tributes to figures like Michel Petrucciani, Emily Remler, and Jelly Roll Morton underscore the genre's rich historical continuity. Additional highlights include tribute performances, anniversary reissues, and fresh recordings from established and emerging voices across the jazz spectrum.
