His dedication to pushing his limits and his willingness to delve into new musical areas have been powerful inspirations to his peers and to a new generation of improvisers. His forceful tone and aggressive improvisational style have made him one of the most inﬂuential alto saxophonists of his time. Growing up in Seattle, Andrew D’Angelo forged powerful musical and personal relationships with friends and fellow musicians Chris Speed and Jim Black. Before moving to New York City in 1986. He reconnected with Speed and Black in Boston where they formed Human Feel with guitarist Kurt Rosenwinkel. Human Feel would prove to be one of the central incubators new jazz and creative improvised music in the 1990’s and beyond When the band moved to Brooklyn in the early 1990's, they were rapidly absorbed into the blossoming downtown music scene, becoming sidemen of choice for many world renowned artists. D'Angelo joined bands and made records with Erik Friedlander, Bobby Previte, Jamie Saft/Cuong Vu and would forge another long-lasting musical relationship with drummer Matt Wilson. "D'Angelo is an expressionist. On alto, he wields a visceral, heart-on-sleeve tone" — Jazztimes Magazine As a composer, D'Angelo has created a powerful personal language rooted in jazz but incorporating inﬂuences from electro-acoustic music, noise, and modern classical music. D'Angelo's work as a composer has included music for big band, chamber groups, string orchestra, various jazz ensembles and soloists. for booking and other inquries: Creative Concept Music +1-201-647-7742 [email protected].

Bio information: JOEL HARRISON, LORENZO FELICIATI, CUONG VU, ROY POWELL, DAN WEISS Title: HOLY ABYSS (Cuneiform Rune 334) Cuneiform publicity/promotion dept.: 301-589-8894 / fax 301-589-1819 email: joyce [-at-] cuneiformrecords.com (Press & world radio); radio [-at-] cuneiformrecords.com (North American radio) www.cuneiformrecords.com FILE UNDER: JAZZ “When you stare into the abyss the abyss stares back at you.” – Friedrich Nietzsche Full of foreboding and existential terror, the abyss resides in the darkest corners of the human imagination. Holy Abyss, a collaborative project between New York guitarist Joel Harrison and Italian bassist Lorenzo Feliciati, is an antidote to angst. Flowing from a deep communion between the artists, the album turns dread on its head, offering a series of expansive soundscapes full of lustrous harmonies, searching melodies and knowing interplay. Featuring trumpeter Cuong Vu, drummer Dan Weiss and Roy Powell on piano and Hammond B3 organ, the quintet reflects jazz’s increasingly international reach. Harrison and Weiss, musical comrades for many years, are New Yorkers, while longtime collaborators Feliciati and Powell hail from Rome and Oslo via the UK, respectively. Vu, who has toured and recorded with Feliciati and Powell, was born in Vietnam and is now based in Seattle, near where he grew up. The musicians are united by a passion for modern jazz unbounded by stylistic conventions. Open to sounds from around the world, they have all created music infused with electronics, odd meters, and uncommon timbres and tonal palettes. Holy Abyss opens with Harrison’s anguished ballad “Requiem for an Unknown Soldier,” which establishes the album’s elemental sensibility with its ethereal trumpet fanfare and slow burning guitar solo.

Myra Melford and John Zorn
PROGRAM NOTES MUSICNOW: MYRA MELFORD AND JOHN ZORN Marc Mellits OCTET (2010) Duration: 14 minutes Instrumentation: String Octet Commissioned by the Syracuse Symphony Orchestra Premiered by the Syracuse Symphony Orchestra String Quartet & the Syracuse Symphony Youth Orchestra String Quartet on March 14 2010 at the John H. Mulroy Civic Center in Syracuse, New York Copyright/Publisher: Dacia Music The composer writes: “I composed my Octet during the winter of 2009-10. The majority of the music was written at the Banff Music Center, where I was invited to be an artist-in-residence in January 2010. The incredibly beautiful mountainous surroundings of the Banff Centre had a profound impact on me. My composing studio overlooked the Canadian Rockies, pristine and covered with snow and ice. The weather was brutal, with a level of cold I had never felt. This, juxtaposed with the astounding frozen beauty all around me, provided the inspiration for the music. My studio had a glorious enormous picture window that overlooked the Rockies. The music came quick and it came easy; before I knew it I had material for all four movements. The outer movements are aggressive and have the biting cold I felt, while the second and third movements reflect more of the warmth I felt inside, sharing my thoughts with a wide range of artists who were also in residence.” About the composer: Composer Marc Mellits is one of the leading American composers of his generation, enjoying hundreds of performances throughout the world every year, making him one of the most performed composers in the United States.

Tom Rainey – drums In 1990 Brad moved to New York and dived head first into the music scene. He quickly Matt Penman – bass became involved in the formation of a loose collective of improvising musicians who were into experimenting and playing each other’s music, as well as different folk musics including Balkan and Eastern European musics. Out of this environment was born many groups that Shepik continues to perform with today including the Tiny Bell Trio 1992, Paradox Trio 1992, Pachora 1993, and BABKAS 1992–8. In 1991 Bill Frisell recommended Shepik to Paul Motion for his Electric Be Bop Band which Shepik toured and recorded with for five years. “Shepik’s got the mind of a pioneer.The rhythmic complexity of his compositions has few parallels in jazz – or any other genre,for that matter.With all his exotic influences, and all his different axes,he makes us rethink what it means to be a guitarist and a musician.There’s no telling where he’ll go next.” allaboutjazz.com Iconoclastic and prolific jazz-rock guitarist David ‘Fuze’ Fiuczynski, a jazz player who “doesn’t want to Thursday November 18 The Wardrobe £12/10 play just jazz”, has been hailed by the world press as an incredibly inventive guitar hero, who continues Screaming Headless Torsos to deliver with music that is unclassifiable, challenging and invigorating.

LINER NOTES  Recorded Anthology of American Music, Inc
ANDY LASTER’S LESSNESS WINDOW SILVER BRIGHT 80589-2 Narrative was central to jazz even before Lester Young uttered his oft-repeated line that every solo should tell a little story. It’s been generally overlooked that such Youngian tales were told within the context of a larger framing tale—a band arrangement—making them stories within stories. Count Basie’s “Jumpin’ at the Woodside” is the framing story for a succession of interior stories, just as the fleeing of young Florentines from the plague of 1348 is the framing story of Boccaccio’s Decameron. Regardless, Young established the axiom when the plot of the story was more important than its descriptive passages. Stories had a beginning, middle, and end if they were any good. Sure, there was an onus on the storyteller to provide delicious details and tangy twists; but no flourish compensated for the lack of a moral or a punch line. Bottom line: you had a story or you didn’t; and if you didn’t, don’t bother picking up your pen or your horn. But that was several paradigm shifts ago. Now, stories are not told as much as universes are created. Literature is no longer about putting a Weltanschauung, a view of the cosmos, on the table, but just a Welt. Something of the same has happened in jazz, with composers having largely appropriated the narrative chores. Too often, however, composers and novelists are primarily focused on winding up their universes and letting them go. If the universe simply circles about or runs smack into a wall, so it is: A universe must not mean, but be.
