What's New in Sessionography

1.1.1

October 22, 2026

What's New in 1.1.1 Live From Emmet's Place: Emmet Cohen's YouTube series has its own studio page, and every episode is a session you can open. Watch it right on the page, tap a tune to jump straight to it, and see who was in the band. Episodes show up on Emmet's page and every guest's page, tune pages list the episodes that play each tune, and playing in an episode band counts as a connection. Prefer albums only? Turn off Settings → Show videos. Sessionography speaks your language: The app is now in German, French, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Brazilian Portuguese and Simplified Chinese. Add to Playlist from any track. Long-press a track on an album, a tune page, your Favorites or a playlist to add it to one of your playlists. Corrected credits show up right away, even on albums you've saved. iPad and Mac: the header card on artist pages no longer slides up under the toolbar.

My favorite app!

I’ve discovered so many recordings by using this app. It’s fantastic to see when the sessions were and the recordings that were produced from those sessions. I’ve gone down so many rabbit holes looking up who else was on a session and then researching their history at that time. Amazing!

You don’t get this anywhere else

Fantastic integration of information on performers, composers, songs, recording studios—- presented in a way that fosters dives down wonderful rabbit holes. Jazz is all about this kind of thing - collaboration, new versions of old songs. This app was so needed. Great integration with Apple Music but supposed to work well with other platforms

I have no words

This has to be one of the most amazing apps I’ve come across - my mind is blown - absolutely essential for anyone with even a remote interest in jazz

Great new app to explore jazz

I really like this app and it is very mature and stable for being so new. The developer responded quickly to feature requests and seems eager to move this project forward.
The pricing model is acceptable given that an app like this needs to be supported long term.

Essential for anybody who loves jazz

Truly revolutionary tool for exploring and discovering new music, especially in jazz. The app is organized in way that makes sense for this music, it’s clearly designed by someone who is deeply immersed in jazz.

You can find recordings for any standard by year, easily see who played on a given tune, what other projects they have worked on, who they play with frequently etc — It’s an absolute gold mine and very intuitive to navigate.

I can’t overstate how much I needed this app!
