Jazzwise magazine’s March 2026 issue is a Louis Armstrong special, looking at how the trumpeter’s importance still fires the jazz scene today, with a deep dive into his game-changing Hot Five group 100 years on. There are also exclusive features from Val Wilmer on Louis’ untold adventures touring the UK in 1934, plus a look at the movers and shakers of the 1920s Jazz Age.

Also in the issue are interviews with Brit sax supremo Tim Garland, stylish US trumpeter Theo Crocker and rising UK jazz singer Ni Maxine. Revered trumpeter and label boss Dave Douglas selects the albums he can’t live without in Takes Five.

Two baritone sax talents, Lauren Sevian and Hannah Horton, discuss their love of low notes; harpist Julie Campiche selects a Keith Jarrett album as her Turning Point; and leading US guitarist Julian Lage talks about his great new Blue Note set, Scenes From Above.
