Mike Mantler and Carla Bley, being the only two non-leader members of the Guild, had decided to organize an orchestra made up of musicians both inside and outside the Guild. This group, then known as the Jazz Composer's Guild Orchestra and consisting of eleven musicians, began rehearsals in the downtown loft of painter Mike Snow for its premiere performance at the Guild's Judson Hall series of concerts in December 1964. The orchestra, set up in a large circle in the center of the hall, played "Communications no.3" by Mike Mantler and "Roast" by Carla Bley. The concert was so successful musically that the leaders decided to continue to write for the group and to give performances at the Guild's new headquarters, a triangular studio on top of the Village Vanguard, called the Contemporary Center. In early March 1965 at the first of these concerts, which were presented in a workshop style, the group had been enlarged to fifteen musicians and the pieces played were "Radio" by Carla Bley and "Communications no.4" (subtitled "Day") by Mike Mantler.

  • BALONI Presskit French
    BALONI Joachim Badenhorst, Frantz Loriot & Pascal Niggenkemper baloni, soit Joachim Badenhorst le belge souffleur (clarinettes, saxophone ténor), Frantz Loriot l'altiste (violon-alto) français et Pascal Niggenkemper le contrebassiste franco-allemand se sont rencontrés à Brooklyn, New York en 2008. Une triple entente fondée sur l’écoute de l’autre, la possibilité d’étendre pour chacun son champ d’investigation. Résultat : ces trois funambules osent le saut vers l’inconnu, le vertige de l’instant présent. À les suivre dans les chemins escarpés, ces courbes jonchées de mélodies aussi fugaces que tenaces, on ne sait ce qui tient de l’improvisation et de l’écrit. Peu importe le flacon, pourvu que l’ivresse soit au bout de cette traversée poétique. baloni a tissé un lien complice avec le label portugais clean feed depuis 2011 et trois enregistrements ont vu le jour sur le label : "Fremdenzimmer" en novembre 2011, puis "belleke" en juillet 2014, et enfin "Ripples", en format vinyle, sorti en mars 2015. JOACHIM BADENHORST - clarinets & saxophone (Belgium). Joachim Badenhorst (1981 Antwerpen) is one of the biggest talents of the Belgian jazz scene. Joachim was chosen 'rising star Clarinet of 2013' in the renown Annual Downbeat Critic's Poll (U.S.A.) .Joachim Badenhorst was chosen ‘Clarinet player of 2011` by a group of international jazz critics in the‘4th Annual Intruso Critics Poll’. Joachim is featured on more than 30 recordings. On Belgian labels (De Werf, Igloo, Home Records, Rat- Records, Spocus, El negocito records) and international labels (Songlines-Canada, ILK-Denmark, Fresh Sound New Talent-Spanje, Cleanfeed-Portugal, Nobusiness-Lithuania, Red Toucan-Canada).

  • Interpretive Performance Techniques and Lyrical Innovations on The
    INTERPRETIVE PERFORMANCE TECHNIQUES AND LYRICAL INNOVATIONS ON THE BASS TROMBONE: A STUDY OF RECORDED PERFORMANCES BY GEORGE ROBERTS, “MR. BASS TROMBONE” Jonathan K. Yeager, B.A., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS December 2006 APPROVED: Vern Kagarice, Major Professor Darhyl Ramsey, Minor Professor Tony Baker, Committee Member Graham Phipps, Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music James C. Scott, Dean of the College of Music Sandra L. Terrell, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Yeager, Jonathan K., Interpretive performance techniques and lyrical innovations on the bass trombone: A study of recorded performances by George Roberts, “Mr. Bass Trombone.” Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), December 2006, 82 pp., 18 illustrations, bibliography, 25 titles. Nicknamed “Mr. Bass Trombone” for his role as a prominent, trailblazing recording artist, George Roberts (b. 1928) has often been recognized as redefining the role of the bass trombone in popular music as well as setting new standards for technical refinement and expressive possibilities of the instrument. Through two interviews and a comparison between ten recorded performances by Roberts and corresponding lead sheets, I make observations about Roberts’ performance techniques and illustrate various examples of those techniques. The document includes 35 pp. of interview transcriptions. Copyright 2006 by Jonathan K. Yeager ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to thank those who assisted in the preparation of this document. Specifically, I would like to thank George Roberts for providing his time and thoughts; Vern Kagarice for his guidance and assistance in securing sources; Matthew Litwaitis for his help in locating resources; Ben van Dijk, Bob Hughes, and Douglas Yeo for providing comments; Keith Pawlak at the University of Arizona, John R.

  • Abdullah Ibrahim and the Politics of Jazz in South Africa Nusra Khan Jazz Has Had an Especial Role in the Social and Cultural Politics of South Africa
    Abdullah Ibrahim and the Politics of Jazz in South Africa Nusra Khan Jazz has had an especial role in the social and cultural politics of South Africa. This paper will trace its function in the political struggle waged by Black and Colored musicians against the apartheid regime, from the early 1950s until the 1990s, focusing on the work of one artist particularly. While Abdullah Ibrahim is by no means the only South African musician to use jazz for political goals, the development of his career provides an incredible example of the convergence of race, protest, and memory in the performance as well as study of jazz. Ibrahim’s musical career is entrenched in South Africa’s struggle against apartheid, and it is through this lens that I will examine his life and the role of jazz music in general. As early as the 1940s, jazz had emerged as the favored genre of the elite in South Africa. Professional musicians preferred American ‘international’ performance styles, and only a few African jazz musicians brought anything identifiably South African to their performances of American swing. The negative association between traditional African music and the ‘tribal’ past or rural present was begun by missionaries and had become entrenched in African society, most obviously under the Afrikaner’s government’s policy of “forcing Africans to develop along their own lines1”. Like the leaders of the American Harlem Renaissance, the African elite hoped that achievements in the artistic and intellectual fields would help break down the color bar2. Indeed the similar experience of Black Americans and Africans, of “two peoples under white domination,”3 may have increased the appeal of Black American style in amongst South African performers.

Expect nothing less than magic from these three avant purveyors." –The Village Voice Creative artists aren’t subject to state persecution in the United States, but indifference can exact its own cost, just as generous support can pay steep dividends. Convallaria, the startlingly beautiful new Cuneiform album by the collective trio Thumbscrew, offers an all- too-rare case study in the power of underwritten sequestration. Featuring veteran bass master Michael Formanek, protean guitarist Mary Halvorson, and indefatigably resourceful drummer Tomas Fujiwara, Thumbscrew spent two weeks honing the tunes on Convallaria at City of Asylum, an artist residency program in Pittsburgh originally launched as a refuge for writers in exile. In recent years City of Asylum has expanded its purview to include musicians, establishing the BNY Mellon Jazz Residency that in June/July 2015 hosted Thumbscrew. For Thumbscrew, the opportunity for intensive, undistracted collaboration yielded a particularly striking body of music, even by the standards of these prodigious players. Already closely bonded by extensive collaborations in a variety of overlapping ensembles, the powerhouse triumvirate got to spend the kind of concentrated time together that’s “almost unheard of these days,” says Formanek.

  • 132 New on Maybe Monday
    New on INTAKT RECORDS www.intaktrec.ch One marker of bassist Michael Formanek's creativity and versatility is the range of distinguished musicians of several generations he's worked with. While still a teenager in the 1970s he toured with drummer Tony Williams and saxophonist Joe Henderson. Starting in the '80s he played long stints with Stan Getz, Fred Hersch and Freddie Hubbard. Formanek is also a composer and leader of various bands. One of his principal recording and international touring vehicles has been his acclaimed quartet with Tim Berne, Craig Taborn and Gerald Cleaver. His occasional groups include the 18-piece all-star Ensemble Kolos- sus, roping in many New York improvisers he works with. Currently his primary focus is the Michael Formanek Elusion Quartet with Tony Malaby, Kris Davis, and Ches Smith. In putting together the Elusion Quartet, interpreting his music with these specific musicians, Michael Formanek says he sought “a more direct connection to emotions: mine, theirs and the listener’s.” Hank Shteamer writes in the liner notes: "As one zeroes in on the details of Time Like This, it's clear that this sort of emotional immediacy permeates the album. You hear it in Kris Davis’ flowing, balletic solo on “A Fine Mess”; in Tony Malaby's ululating tenor cries on “The Soul Goodbye”; in Ches Smith’s raucous grooves on “That Was Then”; or the leader’s poised, sinewy lines on “Culture of None.” Elusive? MicHaeL FOrManek Certainly. But as this album proves, under the right conditions, with the eLusiOn QuarTeT right personnel, it’s still out there." Der New Yorker Bassist und Komponist Michael Formanek präsen- TIME LIKE THIS tiert mit seinem Elusion Quartett ein neues, wegweisendes Projekt.
