A určite by som mu krivdil, ak by som tvrdil, že tento fenomenálny hudobník je známy len jazzovému publiku. Nie je veľa hudobníkov, ktorí by svojou výraznou tvárou ovplyvnili také množstvo nielen mladých, ale aj skúsených a ostrieľaných muzikantov. Medzi túto menšinu patrí bez pochýb aj Metheny. Za posledné desaťročia sa stal jedným z najvýznamnejších predstaviteľov súčasného svetového jazzu. Dokonca podľa môjho názoru tento človek búra hranice medzi jazzom a ostatnými žánrami. Keď už som spomínal jeho vplyv na mladých hudobníkov, dôvodom, prečo som si zvolil túto tému je práve jeho vplyv na mňa. Dôležitú rolu zohráva fakt, že aj ja som gitarista. V žiadnom prípade však nie je jediný umelec, ktorého obdivujem, ale pre mňa určite patrí k tým najvplyvnejším. Spomínam si na svoje začiatky s jazzom a jeden z prvých jazzových gitaristov, celkovo jazzových umelcov, ktorých som začal vnímať, bol práve on. Aj keď som spočiatku asi tak ako väčšina ľudí jeho improvizácií príliš nerozumel. Pata Methenyho si vážim predovšetkým vďaka jeho osobitému prístupu k hudbe. Počas rokov aktívneho pôsobenia si dokázal vypracovať výraznú vlastnú tvár založenú na presvedčivom interpretačnom prejave, originálnom zvuku, neopakovateľných frázach a výnimočných kompozíciách. Na základe týchto aspektov sa pri počúvaní stáva nezameniteľným. Myslím si, že toto štádium je najvyššie ocenenie aké môže hudobník dosiahnuť, a určite sa o to každý z nás počas svojho života snaží. 6 Životopis Pat Metheny sa narodil v Kansas City, 12. augusta 1954. Tak ako mnohí hudobníci, aj on pochádzal z hudobníckej rodiny. Jeho výnimočný talent sa prejavil už v ôsmych rokoch, kedy začal hrať na trúbke. V dvanástich rokoch tento dychový nástroj vymenil za šesťstrunovú gitaru. Po asi troch rokoch intenzívneho cvičenia ako pätnásťročný získal štipendium na týždňový jazzový kemp pod vedením gitaristu Atillu Zollera. Práve tento muzikant stal pri zrode Methenyho hviezdy. Pravidelne ho pozýval aj do New Yorku, kde ho postupne zoznamoval s tak významnými muzikantmi ako napríklad Jim Hall alebo Ron Carter. Po absolvovaní Lee's Summit High School a University of Miami in Coral Gables sa presťahoval do Bostonu, kde sa stal asistentom vibrafonistu Garyho Burtona, u ktorého pôsobil aj v skupine. Gary Burton bol ďalší veľmi významný človek v kariére Pata Methenyho. Na veľkú jazzovú scénu sa dostal ako osemnásťročný v roku 1972 práve ako člen kapely už spomínaného Garyho Burtona. Počas tohto pôsobenia zbieral veľmi dôležité skúsenosti a hromadil materiál na svoj debutový a prelomový album Bright Size Life, ktorý vyšiel v roku 1976 a je v obsadení trio; Pat Metheny - gitary, Jaco Pastorius - basová gitara a Bob Moses - bicie. Po vydaní tohto albumu sa Metheny stal nepochybne pevnou súčasťou svetovej jazzovej scény, ktorou bude do konca svojho života. Po tomto albume nasledovalo obrovské množstvo ďalších veľmi významných štúdiových alebo živých počinov, ku ktorým sa bližšie dostanem neskôr. Spomenúť by som chcel album Watercolors, kde sa prvýkrát po Methenyho boku predstavil fenomenálny hráč na klávesové nástroje Lyle Mays. Tento muzikant ho sprevádza takmer celý život. Metheny je tak významným hudobníkom, že menovať muzikantov, s ktorými spolupracoval by trvalo riadne dlho a navyše umelci, ktorí s ním spolupracovali si sami vo svojich životopisoch uvádzajú jeho meno na popredné miesta. Ale ak by sme aspoň v krátkosti chceli spomenúť tých najvýznamnejších, určite by k nim patrili Jim Hall, Dave Holland, Roy Haynes, Toninho Horta, Gary Burton, Chick Corea, Pedro 7 Aznar, Jaco Pastorius, Charlie Haden, John Scofield, Jack DeJohnette, Herbie Hancock, Bill Stewart, Ornette Coleman, Brad Mehldau, Joni Mitchell, Milton Nascimento, Santana, Dominic Miller, Michael Brecker, Trilok Gurtu, Ulf Wakenius a mnohí iní. Metheny je tak žiadaným hudobníkom, že ročne odohrá pri najmenšom okolo 120, no častokrát je to až okolo 250 koncertov. Napriek tejto vyťaženosti, je Metheny otcom troch detí, ktoré má so svojou manželkou Latifou. V nasledujúcich kapitolách sa trochu podrobnejšie zameriam na jednotlivé etapy jeho bohatej kariéry, ktoré mňa osobne zaujali najviac. 8 Cesta k budovaniu vlastnej identity Ako som už spomínal, Pat Metheny patrí ku gitaristom, ktorí majú najrozpoznateľnejší prejav. Cesta k tomuto štádiu je nesmierne náročná a navyše, len veľmi málo muzikantov vo svete sa k nemu dopracuje. V tejto kapitole by som sa rád pozastavil nad hudobníkmi, resp. hudbou, ktorá ho v jeho živote ovplyvnila najviac a zároveň prispela k utvoreniu vlastného hudobného jazyka. Tak, ako mnohí z nás, aj Metheny bol v tínedžerskom veku uchvátený z nahrávok Wesa Montgomeryho. Dokonca sa ho isté obdobie pokúšal aj imitovať. Od imitácie však po určitom čase ustúpil. O jeho obrovskom obdive ku Montgomerymu svedčí aj tvrdenie, že Wesov album Smokin´ at the Half Note je najlepší jazzový album všetkých čias a dokonca tvrdí, že táto nahrávka mu ukázala ako má hrať.1 Ďalší muzikant, ktorý zohral v Methenyho živote veľkú rolu bol Ornette Coleman a to predovšetkým vďaka albumu New York Is Now! Kto pozná Colemanovu tvorbu vie, že jeho kompozície s disonantnými a nepravidelnými témami, s pevným rytmom a silným bluesovým cítením dokážu byť pre mnohých hudobníkov obrovskou inšpiráciou. O vrelom vzťahu Methenyho ku Colemanovým kompozíciám svedčí aj fakt, že niekoľko jeho skladieb nahral a vydal na svojich albumoch, navyše rád spolupracoval s Colemanovými spoluhráčmi. Pozoruhodná je aj jeho klasická technika, ktorá sa prejavuje predovšetkým pri hraní na akustickú gitaru, ale pre mňa osobne je tá schopnosť najviac badateľná pri sólovom hraní. Balady v Methenyho podaní znejú priam dokonalo a to najmä vďaka vplyvu takých majstrov ako Joe Pass, či John McLaughlin. Pat Metheny svoju univerzálnosť dosiahol najmä vďaka absorbovaniu, čo najväčšieho množstva a variability muziky. To, že medzi jeho ďalšie inšpirácie patria muzikanti ako John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Kenny Burell, Clifford Brown nie je až také prekvapujúce. Mnohých ortodoxných jazzmanov by však mohla zaskočiť informácia, že medzi interpretov, ktorí ho ovplyvnili zaraďuje napríklad Beatles, Bucketheada alebo Eddieho van Halena. Nezanedbateľný vplyv 1 Autor neznámy. 2005. Pat Metheny: An Idealist Reconnects With His Mentors, In The New York Times [online] 25.2.2005 [Cit. 12. 3. 2014]. Dostupné na:

    2017 20:00 24.10.Grand Auditorium Mardi / Dienstag / Tuesday Jazz & beyond «An evening with Pat Metheny» feat. Antonio Sánchez, Linda May Han Oh & Gwilym Simcock Pat Metheny guitar Antonio Sánchez drums Linda May Han Oh bass Gwilym Simcock piano Pat Metheny photo: Jimmy Katz Pat Metheny, au-delà de la guitare Vincent Cotro « J’ai atteint un point où j’ai tant composé que tout n’est qu’une grande composition. Avec Antonio, Lina et Gwilym, nous allons explorer cette composition pour en faire, je l’espère, quelque chose de vraiment grandiose ». Pat Metheny, présentation du concert lors du festival Jazz sous les Pommiers, mai 2017 Né en 1954 dans le Missouri, Patrick Bruce Metheny découvre à onze ans Miles Davis puis Ornette Coleman et commence la guitare à douze ans, après s’être essayé à la trompette et au cor. Il écoutera et décortiquera les solos de Wes Montgomery, Kenny Burrell ou Jim Hall et se produira dès quinze ans avec les meilleurs musiciens dans les clubs de Kansas City. Alors qu’il se passionne pour John Coltrane et Clifford Brown, il rencontre Gary Burton en 1974, année de son explosion sur la scène internationale. Aux côtés du vibraphoniste, il développe ce qui deviendra sa caractéristique : une articulation plutôt relâchée et flexible habituellement observée chez les « souffleurs », combinée à une sensibilité harmonique et rythmique très développée. Son premier disque avec Jaco Pastorius et Bob Moses en 1976, « Bright Size Life », réinvente en quelque sorte la tradition sous des apparences de modernité, pour une nouvelle génération de guitaristes. On voit apparaître sa passion pour la musique d’Ornette Coleman qui se manifestera largement ensuite et jusqu’à aujourd’hui.

  • Gerry Mulligan Discography
    GERRY MULLIGAN DISCOGRAPHY GERRY MULLIGAN RECORDINGS, CONCERTS AND WHEREABOUTS by Gérard Dugelay, France and Kenneth Hallqvist, Sweden January 2011 Gerry Mulligan DISCOGRAPHY - Recordings, Concerts and Whereabouts by Gérard Dugelay & Kenneth Hallqvist - page No. 1 PREFACE BY GERARD DUGELAY I fell in love when I was younger I was a young jazz fan, when I discovered the music of Gerry Mulligan through a birthday gift from my father. This album was “Gerry Mulligan & Astor Piazzolla”. But it was through “Song for Strayhorn” (Carnegie Hall concert CTI album) I fell in love with the music of Gerry Mulligan. My impressions were: “How great this man is to be able to compose so nicely!, to improvise so marvellously! and to give us such feelings!” Step by step my interest for the music increased I bought regularly his albums and I became crazy from the Concert Jazz Band LPs. Then I appreciated the pianoless Quartets with Bob Brookmeyer (The Pleyel Concerts, which are easily available in France) and with Chet Baker. Just married with Danielle, I spent some days of our honey moon at Antwerp (Belgium) and I had the chance to see the Gerry Mulligan Orchestra in concert. After the concert my wife said: “During some songs I had lost you, you were with the music of Gerry Mulligan!!!” During these 30 years of travel in the music of Jeru, I bought many bootleg albums. One was very important, because it gave me a new direction in my passion: the discographical part. This was the album “Gerry Mulligan – Vol. 2, Live in Stockholm, May 1957”.

Media support for the 13/14 Jazz Series provided by WRTI and City Paper. 10 | ABOUT THE ARTISTS Gary Burton (Vibraphone) Born in 1943 and raised in Indiana, Gary Burton taught himself to play the vibraphone. At the age of 17, Burton made his recording debut in Nashville with guitarists Hank Garland and Chet Atkins. Two years later, Burton left his studies at Berklee College of Music to join George Shearing and Stan Getz, with whom he worked from 1964 to 1966. As a member of Getz's quartet, Burton won Down Beat Magazine's “Talent Deserving of Wider Recognition” award in 1965. By the time he left Getz to form his own quartet in 1967, Burton had recorded three solo albums. Borrowing rhythms and sonorities from rock music, while maintaining jazz's emphasis on improvisation and harmonic complexity, Burton's first quartet attracted large audiences from both sides of the jazz-rock spectrum. Such albums as Duster and Lofty Fake Anagram established Burton and his band as progenitors of the jazz fusion phenomenon.
