Brian Holland Brian Holland, having performed ragtime, jazz and stride piano for over 30 years, continues to be one of the most sought after artists in the country. Classically trained, but with a keen ear for improvisation, Brian’s approach to the piano is marked by a dynamic, driving style that has been described as clear as Waterford crystal. Beginning his musical existence at the age of three, Brian grew up living a “Ragtime Life.” His grandparents raised him to love all kinds of music; however, styles from the early 20th century became his passion. He quickly learned his way around an organ keyboard and had a repertoire of old standards that would shock most professionals - all before the age of six. It was then that he turned his attention to the piano.

  • Pops Prevails
    Journal of Jazz Studies vol. 8, no. 1, pp. 93-99 (Spring 2012) Pops Prevails Edward Berger What a Wonderful World: The Magic of Louis Armstrong’s Later Years. By Ricky Riccardi. New York: Pantheon, 2011. 369 pp. $28.95. Louis Armstrong’s later work is a far more controversial subject than one would expect, given his universal recognition as jazz’s seminal creator and, at one time, arguably the world’s most recognizable figure. But it is precisely his success in these two disparate and, to many, incompatible roles that led some critics to ignore his later artistic achievements and to bemoan what many viewed as his abandonment of his genius in pursuit of popular acceptance. Add to that the uneasiness engendered in some circles by Armstrong’s complex stage persona, and the controversy becomes more understandable. Ricky Riccardi makes abundantly clear in this new and valuable work that, although Armstrong may have devoted his entire life to entertaining his audience, it did not preclude serious artistic achievement at all stages of his career. Most writers, Riccardi included, use the transition from Armstrong’s leadership of his big band to the formation of the All Stars in 1947 as the demarcation between early and late Armstrong. Since Armstrong recorded from 1923 to 1971, his “late” period spanned some 24 years—exactly half of his entire recording career. Moreover, some critics felt that Armstrong’s contributions as a creative improviser ended even earlier, essentially dismissing much of his output after the Hot Fives and Hot Sevens. It is interesting to note how our concept of age has changed over the decades.

  • Randy Aldcroft 2 JAZZ DUETS for Tenor & Bass Trombones Volume II Randy Aldcroft 1
    These duets were written for the intermediate and advanced student interested in playing jazz. The range of notes gets higher and the duets get harder with each volume. The chord changes are included to help learn the structure and chord progressions, and so the duets may be played with a rhythm section if desired. Learn a little piano so you may visualize and hear the chord structures and follow their patterns. “Roll” those 8th notes. Keep the duets “swinging”. - Randy Aldcroft 2 JAZZ DUETS for Tenor & Bass Trombones Volume II randy aldcroft 1. q=128 > ° œ ˙ œ > œ œ œ > ? b3 Œ Œ œ bœ Œ Œ Œ nœ œ bœ Œ Œ Trombone b 4 F7 B¨7 F7 B¨7 - 3 j 3 3 j 3 ? b3 ‰‰ œ ‰‰ œ Œ Bass Trombone ¢ b 4 œ œ œ œ ˙ ™ œ œ œ œ œ ˙ ™ œ œ 5 > > ™ > nœ> ™ - > ™ bœ> ™ > ™ ° nœ œ œ œ bœ> ™ ˙ ™ ˙ ™ œ œ ˙ œ œ ˙ ? bb Œ ‰ F7 B¨7 EØ7 A7(b9) D‹7 BØ7 E7(b9) AØ7 > D7(b9) > > > œ> ™ b-œ > ™ œ ™ > ™ ? b ™ œ #˙ ™ nœ œ ˙ ‰ œ #˙ ¢ b ˙ ™ œ œ ™ nœ œ > > ° 13 nœ> ™ œ ™ #œ> ™ nœ> ™ b˙ ™ ˙ ™ œ œ ˙ œ bœ> ? bb Œ Œ A¨Ø7 > ™ D¨7(b9) G¨Œ„Š7 C7(b9) F7 B¨7 bœ> ™ bœ > > j 3 3 j 3 ? b œ ™ œ ™ b˙ ™ nœ œ œ ‰ ‰ ¢ b œ œ œ œ ˙ ™ œ œ œ œ œ 3 19 > > ™ > ° nœ œ œ œ œ bœ> nœ œ œ œ bœ> ™ ˙ ™ ˙ ™ œ œ ˙ ? bb Œ Œ Œ Œ F7 B¨7 - F7 B¨7 EØ7 A7(b9) D‹7 > > > ? b œ Œ œ ™ œ #˙ ™ nœ œ ˙ ¢ b ˙ ™ œ ˙ ™ œ œ ™ nœ œ Copyright © 2015 Randy Aldcroft - All Rights Reserved Published and Distributed by Cherry Classics Music www.CherryClassics.com 14 Aldcroft - Jazz Duets Vol.

Randy Weston was not the first musician to do so, however he was chosen for this thesis because his experiences, influences, and music clearly demonstrate the importance traditional African culture has played in his life. Randy Weston was born during the Harlem Renaissance. His parents, who lived in Brooklyn at that time, were influenced by the political views that predominated African American culture. Weston’s father, in particular, felt a strong connection to his African heritage and instilled the concept of pan-Africanism and the writings of Marcus Garvey firmly into Randy Weston’s consciousness.
