  • Christopher Cross Biography Christopher Cross Is a Music Icon. in 2011, the Oscar and Five-Time Grammy Winning Artist Is Back W
    Christopher Cross Biography Christopher Cross is a music icon. In 2011, the Oscar and five-time Grammy winning artist is back with an amazingly crafted new album, Doctor Faith. It’s his first album of new and original material in over 12 years. Cross' 1980 self-titled debut album rocketed to the #2 spot. Breaking out as the biggest new star of that year, he virtually defined adult contemporary radio with a series of smoothly sophisticated ballads including the #1 hit, "Sailing." If the charts weren’t evidence enough, at the 1981 Grammy Awards Christopher walked off with an unprecedented and record-setting five Grammys, including Best New Artist and Song of the Year for "Sailing." The self-titled debut album, featuring lead single "Ride Like the Wind," and the massively successful second single "Sailing" made Cross a superstar. In the wake of two more Top 20 hits, "Never Be the Same" and "Say You'll Be Mine,” he soon scored a second #1, as well as an Academy Award, with "Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do)," which he co-wrote with Burt Bacharach, Carole Bayer Sager, and Peter Allen for the smash Dudley Moore film Arthur. Christopher's much-anticipated second album Another Page was released in 1983 and produced the hits "All Right," "No Time for Talk," and a Top Ten entry for "Think of Laura. He charted 8 songs into the Billboard Top-40 charts between 1980 and 1983. Four years, two albums, eight hit singles, several world tours, five Grammy's, and one Oscar marked Christopher's meteoric rise to the top.

  • 1 Grace Jones
    GRACE JONES: BLOODLIGHT AND BAMI Directed and edited by Sophie Fiennes With Grace Jones, Jean-Paul Goude, Sly Dunbar, Robbie Shakespeare, Ivor Guest – World Premiere, Toronto International Film Festival 2017 – 115 min. – UK/Ireland PRESS CONTACT: Krista Williams – [email protected] Sacks & Co 119 West 57th Street, PHN New York, NY 10019 Office: +1.212.741.1000 DISTRIBUTOR CONTACT: Rodrigo Brandão – [email protected] Kino Lorber Inc 333 W. 39th Street / Suite 503 New York, NY 10018 Office: +1.212.629.6880 1 LOG LINE This electrifying journey through the public and private worlds of pop culture mega-icon Grace Jones juxtaposes musical sequences with intimate personal footage, all the while brimming with Jones’ bold aesthetic. SHORT SYNOPSIS This electrifying journey through the public and private worlds of pop culture mega-icon Grace Jones juxtaposes musical sequences with intimate personal footage, all the while brimming with Jones’s bold aesthetic. A larger-than-life entertainer, an androgynous glam-pop diva, an unpredictable media presence––Grace Jones is all these things and more. Sophie Fiennes’s documentary goes beyond the traditional music biography, offering a portrait as stylish and unconventional as its subject. Taking us home to Jamaica, the studio with long-time collaborators Sly & Robbie, and behind-the-scenes at shows all around the world, the film reveals Jones as lover, daughter, mother, and businesswoman. But the stage is the fixed point to which the film returns, with eye- popping performances of "Slave to the Rhythm," “Pull Up to the Bumper,” "Love is the Drug," and more. Jones herself has said watching the film “will be like seeing me almost naked” and, indeed, Fiennes’s treatment is every bit as genre-bending as its subject, untamed by neither age nor life itself.

  • Grace Jones: Bloodlight and Bami
    presenta GRACE JONES: BLOODLIGHT AND BAMI regia di SOPHIE FIENNES con Grace Jones, Jean-Paul Goude, Sly Dunbar, Robbie Shakespeare, Ivor Guest UK/Irlanda - 2017 - 115 min. EVENTO SPECIALE AL CINEMA SOLO IL 30 E 31 GENNAIO distribuito da Officine UBU – www.officineubu.com materiali disponibili al sito: www.officineubu.com/areapress user: ospite – pw: stampa Ufficio Stampa: Echo srl Stefania Collalto - [email protected] - +39 339.4279472 Lisa Menga - [email protected] - +39 347.5251051 Stefania Gargiulo - [email protected] - +39 334.7562824 Giulia Bertoni - [email protected] - +39 338.5286378 SINOSSI BREVE Grace Jones: Bloodlight and Bami è un viaggio elettrizzante attraverso la carriera pubblica e la vita privata dell’icona della musica e della cultura pop Grace Jones. L’audace estetica di Jones emerge nell’intera pellicola grazie al sapiente lavoro delle regista Sophie Fiennes, capace di creare un’esperienza cinematografica di grande potenza, accostando a contrasto sequenze musicali, riprese più intime e materiale personale per ritrarre la persona che si nasconde dietro la maschera indossata dall’artista sul palco. SINOSSI LUNGA Fuori dal comune, selvaggia, strepitosa e androgina – Grace Jones è tutto questo e molto altro. Il documentario tratteggia un profilo inedito della Jones: amante, figlia, madre, sorella e nonna, senza filtri, alla ricerca di chi si cela davvero dietro la maschera da diva. Il palcoscenico è il luogo dove si possono realizzare le fantasie più estreme e dove si può sprigionare in libertà la fantasia: è proprio sul palcoscenico che si mette in scena il musical della vita di Grace Jones. Il film include, tra gli altri, frammenti di performance inedite tratte dalle sue canzoni più famose come Slave To The Rhythm e Pull Up To The Bumper, ma anche brani autobiografici e più recenti come Williams' Blood, This Is e Hurricane.

  • Big Sid” Catlett: the Development of Modern Jazz Drumming Style”
    ARTIMISI, ANTHONY B., D.M.A. The Study of Jeff Porcaro's Musical Style and the Development of an Analytical Model for the Study of Drum Set Style in Popular Music. (2011) Directed by Dr. David Nelson and Dr. Kristopher Keeton. 206 pp. Jeffrey Thomas Porcaro was one of the preeminent drummers from the middle of the 1970‘s through his untimely passing on August 5, 1992. He was a founding member of the Grammy Award winning band, Toto, and the list of albums on which his drumming appears includes six hundred ninety-three entries. His willingness to help others and commitment to excellence made a lasting impact on the drumming community and the music industry as a whole. The goal of this research was to complete an analysis of Porcaro‘s drumming style. In order to accomplish this goal, a model was developed that allowed for the analysis of drum set performance based on Robert Breithaupt‘s article entitled ―Musical Considerations for Drumset Improvisation.‖ This article identified nine strategies teachers can use with young students regarding drum set improvisation. Seven of these strategies were used to form a comparative analytical model of musical elements which created a summary of drumming style implemented on Jeff Porcaro for the purposes of this paper: Dynamics, Rate of Strokes, Accents, Rests and Rhythmic Figures, Unisons, Hand-to-Foot Distribution and Special Effects. Porcaro‘s peers and colleagues identified six songs as being representative of his drumming: Boz Scaggs‘s ―Lowdown,‖ ―Lido Shuffle,‖ ―Gimme the Goods‖ and ―Jojo,‖ Steely Dan‘s ―Gaucho,‖ and Toto‘s ―Rosanna.‖ The analytical model applied to the choruses of these songs shows that Porcaro manipulated the different musical elements in a variety of way in order to build to a musical peak during the final chorus of each song.
