Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

You wait years for a two-pianos jazz album and suddenly four come along at once.

US pianists Charlap and Rosnes don't try to be cold and classical, like Brad Mehldau and Kevin Hays, or to get by on genius and little else, as do Chick Corea and Stefano Bollani. Rather, like the John Law and Mark Pringle their success seems due to a careful choice of tunes allied to giddily flying fingers. The result is a welcome addition to that honourable genre of sunny Sunday-morning music.
