Rahsaan Roland Kirk im Auftrag: medienAgentur Stefan Michel T 040-5149 1467 F 040-5149 1465 [email protected] Rahsaan Roland Kirk Spirits Up Above: The Rahsaan Roland Kirk Anthology - The Atlantic Years: 1965-1976 Er gilt als einer der innovativsten Musiker der gesamten Jazz Geschichte. Er konnte nicht nur mehrere Saxophone gleichzeitig spielen, er baute gar selber seine eigenen Instrumenten-Kreationen. Er war offen für jedweden musikalischen Einfluss oder Stil, probierte ständig neue Wege und suchte Inspiration in Allem. Blind seit seinem zweiten Lebensjahr, war er früh gezwungen andere Wege zu beschreiten, als seine Altersgenossen und stürzte sich mit größter Leidenschaft in die Musik, bzw. den Jazz. Kirk entwickelte schnell einen sehr eigenen Stil und hatte eine lupenreine Technik an all seinen Blasinstrumenten über die Jahre. Diese neue Anthology über 2CD´s spiegelt die Jahre von 1965 bis 1976 wider, die er für das Atlantic Label als Künstler aktiv war. Eine Querschnitt über alle Alben die entstanden sind, von Klassikern bis zu raren Perlen. Zusammnegestellt wurde das Ganze von Jazzwise-Autor Jon Newey, inklusive neue Liner Notes von Kevin Le Gendre. CD 1 1. Making Love After Hours 2. Roots 3. The Black And Crazy Blues 4.

  • Meet Alek Razdan “Alek Sounds a Lot Better Than I Did at His Age. Hell, He
    Meet Alek Razdan “Alek sounds a lot better than I did at his age. Hell, he sounds better than I do now!” --Sax Gordon, a leading r&b/blues artist in the USA and Europe “The future of r&b and jazz is in good hands. Alek has a depth in his musicianship that is rarely found in someone three times his age.” --Mark Earley, Roomful of Blues Alek Razdan, based on Boston’s North Shore, is no ordinary saxophone and clarinet player. Only in his mid-teens, he’s pulling ahead of the legion of other talented young jazz artists found playing in clubs and studying in music programs around the country. Alek shows impressive technique and surprising expressive power, He has a musical intelligence well beyond his 15 years. These qualities, along with crispness of spirit and firm determination, elevate Alek close to an artistic level frequented by long-established musicians. Want proof? Give a close listen to Alek’s tenor, soprano, and clarinet on his new album, Something Different, and/or hear him in concert with his crackerjack A-Train band—his father, Rikki, plays woodwinds, Dave Vincent mans the drum kit, and John Hyde supplies keyboards. Every day of practice and study he becomes more and more easeful with spontaneous creativity and his tone deepens. Every day, too, Alek continues to explore the artful possibilities offered by not only traditional jazz, swing jazz, bebop, and post-bop, but also blues, r&b, and, not least, Indian classical music. Something Different is the latest important step in a musical odyssey that proceeds on a sure and steady track, without disruption to his school work and his family life.

  • Jazz and Disability Chapter, Repository Copy 2019
    Jazz and disability Django Reinhardt, New York City 1946. Photography by William P. Gottlieb, from the William P. Gottlieb Collection, Library of Congress. Classification no. LC-GLB23-0730. Public Domain 1 Jazz and disability George McKay [pre-publication final draft of chapter in Nicholas Gebhardt, Nicole Rustin-Paschal Tony Whyton, eds. 2019. The Routledge Companion to Jazz Studies. London: Routledge, pp. 173-184] What is jazz? Is it art, a disease, a manner, or a dance? Bandleader Paul Whiteman, New York Times, 1927 (quoted in Watts et al 2008, 184) Art or disease? This chapter both draws on and seeks to extend recent interdisciplinary scholarship in music and disability studies (DS) by looking at the case of jazz. Consider here a definition of the musical instruction alla zoppa, which is usually employed in western classical music to signal a physically impaired character: zoppa in Italian is ‘lame’, ‘limping’, and so it has been applied to music. But it can also mean ‘syncopated’— and so the rhythmic feature at the heart of much jazz has a musical connection with a physical disability, a disability which is about moving differently. A small body of work has been exploring the relation between jazz and disability (Stras 2008 and 2009, Johnson 2011, Lubet 2011 and 2013, Rowden 2009, Pearl 2009); the approach has tended to be around a particular artist (Stras on Connie Boswell, Lubet on Oscar Peterson), or a specific period (Johnson and Stras on early jazz and dance music in the 1920s), or a particular disability (Rowden on visual impairment, Pearl on neurological issues).

  • Great Instrumental
    I grew up during the heyday of pop instrumental music in the 1950s and the 1960s (there were 30 instrumental hits in the Top 40 in 1961), and I would listen to the radio faithfully for the 30 seconds before the hourly news when they would play instrumentals (however the first 45’s I bought were vocals: Bimbo by Jim Reeves in 1954, The Ballad of Davy Crockett with the flip side Farewell by Fess Parker in 1955, and Sixteen Tons by Tennessee Ernie Ford in 1956). I also listened to my Dad’s 78s, and my favorite song of those was Raymond Scott’s Powerhouse from 1937 (which was often heard in Warner Bros. cartoons). and to records that my friends had, and that their parents had - artists such as: (This is not meant to be a complete or definitive list of the music of these artists, or a definitive list of instrumental artists – rather it is just a list of many of the instrumental songs I heard and loved when I was growing up - therefore this list just goes up to the early 1970s): Floyd Cramer (Last Date and On the Rebound and Let’s Go and Hot Pepper and Flip Flop & Bob and The First Hurt and Fancy Pants and Shrum and All Keyed Up and San Antonio Rose and [These Are] The Young Years and What’d I Say and Java and How High the Moon), The Ventures (Walk Don't Run and Walk Don’t Run ‘64 and Perfidia and Ram-Bunk-Shush and Diamond Head and The Cruel Sea and Hawaii Five-O and Oh Pretty Woman and Go and Pedal Pusher and Tall Cool One and Slaughter on Tenth Avenue), Booker T.

Be honest with yourself, covering the basics. strengths & weaknesses. 2. Where do I want to be in the future? Timetables/Goals... 3. How do I get there? Developing lifelong practice habits. 4. Tradition...imitation vs. individuality. (“Follow the line, not the style.”) 5. Transcriptions and how to approach them. 6. Actively listening to music. How to do it. (see listening sheet) 7. Having your instrument be the piano/bass/drums and more!!! 8. Don't limit yourself to one style of playing or listening. 9. Using unusual expressive devices: multi-phonics, growling, alt. articulations, slap tongue etc. 10. Limitless Wonder. ("Can I really do that?") …THE GREATEST GIFT ANY TEACHER CAN GIVE YOU IS THE GIFT OF HOW TO TEACH YOURSELF… REMEMBER... You will not improve overnight in the way you wish you could. You will however have sudden bursts of inspiration along the way which will change the way you play. It is my belief that you must experience life to be able to express it. Being a better person will help you become a better musician. By examining and working hard on these ideas and concepts, you will become a better improvising musician.

  • "The Expressiveness of African-American Music" Language, Art and Mind
    "The Expressiveness of African-American Music" Language, Art and Mind: Essays in Appreciation and Analysis in Honor of Paul Ziff , Edited by Dale Jameson, Kluwer Academic, 1994, pp. 131-142 JAZZ AND THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN EXPERIENCE : THE EXPRESSIVENESS OF AFRICAN-AMERICAN MUSIC Bill E. Lawson CIVIL RIGHTS AND CIVIL ARTS In the mid to late 1960s, expressions of unity and racial solidarity became the hallmark of the civil rights struggle in the United States. Young black activists began to see the political struggle in nationalistic terms.1 Groups like the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee and the Black Panther Party put pressure on various segments of the African-American community to cite their contribution to the political struggle in the United States. African-American artists were not exempted. They were called upon to explain the value of their "art" in these "revolutionary" times. Black artists faced two difficulties: first, artistic standards historically have been set by the larger white community and these most often had been antithetical to the experiences of black people. Second, many black artists had adopted the view that art should be separated from politics.2 That is, art should not be conceived of as an ideological weapon. As the civil rights struggle surged forward the position of "art for art's sake" was replaced with the view that black art should and could make either a statement about the black experience and/or raise consciousness through cultural awareness.3 This challenge was picked up by visual artists such as Dana Chandler, Akua McDaniel, David Hammonds, Bill Walker, Faith Ringgold, and groups like AFRO-COBRA.
