This wiki needs a jazz page. It will very likely grow.

Passages des passeurs

McCoy Tyner

McCoy Tyner died on March 6, 2020, aged 81.[1] It appears he was scheduled to be at Jazz à Vienne, perhaps even with Ravi Coltrane (again?)

Less than two weeks later, Nduduzo Makhathini, a South African pianist/healer,[2] had posted :

Great energy... (fun bass solo at 7:30 or so)

The Real McCoy @ Jazz à Vienne with Ravi Coltrane playing "Walk Spirit, Talk Spirit", 20??:

Manu Dibango

Dibango, from Cameroun, died on the 24th of March, aged 87.[3]

Nduduzo Makhathini

Live at the Untitled Basement. Intense. A couple of reviews concur that his initial Blue Note album after working on his own label (Gundu) is a remarkable and much-remarked success.[4][5]

John Zorn

Two simultaneous releases:

It's easy to get stressed by both "The Ghost of Departed Quantities"RIP (the opening salvo slightly overstates the violence the listener will be done) and "Parabolas". Both have some cool Snoopy (Vince Guaraldi) moments and amazingly stitched transitions. Hedge-clippers have been tuned to sound either like a typewriter or scissors in the second track. There's Schroeder piano tantrums, grand eerieness and delicacy, even a few stop-with-all-the-damned-notes-already moments thrown in for good measure... overall... a lot of fun.
a pluckier guitar trio, much easier on the brain though "Infernal Night (Sin Is Behovely)" does get a bit squirrely spidery.

Hugh Masekela

I wouldn't be making this page if it weren't for Tony. :)
