  • CHARLIE PARKER Di Leonard Feather
    CHARLIE PARKER di Leonard Feather E stato come un ciclone che ha attraversato la storia del jazz, un'esplosione solitaria e geniale, che ha cambiato il corso della musica afroamericana, come era accaduto in precedenza soltanto con Armstrong. Da ogni punto di vista tonale, melodico, armonico la sua musica ha aperto una strada nuova non solo per i sassofonisti, ma anche per tutti i jazz men moderni, qualunque fosse il loro strumento. Ha detto Lennie Tristano, dopo la sua morte: "Se Parker avesse voluto invocare le leggi che puniscono il plagio, avrebbe potuto accusare praticamente tutti coloro che hanno inciso un disco negli ultimi dieci anni". La sua parabola artistica e la sua tormentata biografia, indissolubilmente legate, sono diventate ben presto leggenda, una leggenda tragica, quella dell'arte che raggiunge le vette del sublime attraverso la dannazione, come è accaduto per Poe, Van Gogh, Verlaine e tanti altri artisti "maledetti".Sui muri delle stazioni della metropolitana newyorkese, su quelli delle case del Village, sulle pareti dei jazz club, i suoi ammiratori scrissero "Bird lives!", Parker è ancora vivo. E quel mistico messaggio è ancora oggi attuale. Perché il jazz non avrebbe compiuto i suoi passi da gigante senza il gesto visionario e disperato di Charlie "Bird" Parker. Charlie Parker nacque il 29 agosto del 1920 nella città sobborgo di Kansas City, nel Kansas. La madre Addie a cui "Bird" fu sempre mollo legato, aveva fatto la cameriera per molti anni, finché era riuscita a diventare infermiera in un ospedale. Il padre, che aveva lavorato con delle mediocri compagnie di vaudeville, era un fallito che amava rifugiarsi nella bottiglia.

  • 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”.

The operation was serious, as Arthur spent one week after the procedure in an induced coma in their ICU unit. His health has been a challenge for him for several years now. The Parkinson’s (Arthur has been living with Parkinson’s for eight years) has developed more rapidly and at this time he is in a rehabilitation center in Lancaster, CA. His goal is to be back home (?) within the next 30 days. The recent operation he underwent diminished his ability to walk and swallow foods. He is fighting hard each day to gain his strength back.
