Moravian College Youth Jazz Camp (July 9 - 13, 2018) Winners determined by judges 5 — Distinguished Judges — Patrick Dorian Patrick Dorian, Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Music, was a member of the East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania Music Department from 1987 through 2013. In 2010, he was awarded the highest faculty honor, the preeminent rank of Distinguished Professor of Music. He taught courses in jazz studies and film music and was the liaison to the Al Cohn Memorial Jazz Collection. He is the author and reviewer of many professional journal articles, chapters in several books, and CD insert booklets. Professor Dorian’s long-time experience as a concert band and jazz ensemble director make him a sought-after evaluator and adjudicator at many festivals. His biography is included in Trumpet Greats: A Biographical Dictionary by David R. Hickman et al. (2013). It outlines Professor Dorian’s accomplished teaching career, in addition to his performing and recording careers, especially as a long-time member of the Phil Woods Big Band, the David Liebman Big Band directed by Gunnar Mossblad, the Jazz Artists Repertory Orchestra (JARO), and the Water Gap Brass. He has toured internationally, with performances at major jazz festivals, jazz clubs, and concert halls. Professor Dorian performed on two Grammy-nominated CDs (Celebration!, 1997, and Beyond the Line, 2003). He also performed on the David Liebman Big Band (DLBB) DVD and CD LIVE . As Always (2011). Recently released recordings include New Celebration by Phil Woods and the COTA Festival Orchestra, Tomorrow’s Expectations by the DLBB, and A Tribute to Wayne Shorter by the DLBB. He has recently performed with The Temptations, The Four Freshmen, and the national tour of Cathy Rigby Is Peter Pan. In June 2007, Professor Dorian was presented with the Great Teacher Award by the ESU Alumni Association. In October 2007, he was inducted into the East Stroudsburg Area School District Music Hall of Fame. He was also awarded the Fred Waring Award for Outstanding Contributions to the Arts and the Community. Professor Dorian holds degrees from Northwestern University (MM Performance) and Ithaca College (BM Performance and Music Education) and taught instrumental music in public schools for 14 years. 6 Bill Goodwin An almost completely self-taught drummer, Bill attributes his early interest in the drums to Shelly Manne’s playing on the movie soundtrack of “The Man with the Golden Arm.” Before that he had taken piano lessons and studied the tenor saxophone. His father’s extensive record collection gave him the opportunity to hear and learn songs, and he still hears the form of the music first. From 1959 to the present, Goodwin has been a professional drummer, playing with the likes of Bill Evans, Dexter Gordon, Art Pepper, Jim Hall, George Shearing and Bobby Hutcherson, and singers such as June Christy, Joe Williams, Roseanna Vitro, Tony Bennett and Manhattan Transfer. The drum chair with Gary Burton brought him to the East Coast in 1969. After a three year stint with Burton’s group Bill settled down in an old farmhouse in the Poconos and worked the resorts. It was there that he and bassist Steve Gilmore became a team. Goodwin, like Gilmore, is a charter member of The Phil Woods Quartet (now Quintet), joining at it’s inception in February 1974. Phil Woods says, “Bill is the magic ingredient in our all acoustic group. He is one of the masters who plays the song, not just the time. He shades and tints beautifully. He plays the music.” Bill Goodwin has produced all of the The Phil Woods Quartet/Quintet and Little Big Band recordings since 1980 including the Grammy Award winning albums MORE LIVE (Adelphi), AT THE VANGUARD (Antilles) and the 1992 Grammy nominee ALL BIRD’S CHILDREN (Concord Jazz), as well as THE PHIL WOODS QUINTET MEETS DIZZY GILLESPIE on Timeless Records and FLOWERS FOR HODGES by Phil Woods and Jim McNeely duo. He has also produced several Tom Harrell recordings and was Omnisound’s main producer of jazz product including: PHIL WOODS/LEW TABACKIN and Dave Frishberg’s SONGBOOKS, VOLUME I and VOLUME II. His most recently released production efforts are Keith Jarrett’s LIVE AT THE DEER HEAD for ECM Records, and THE PHIL WOODS QUARTET/QUINTET 20TH ANNIVERSARY ALBUM for Mosaic, Phil Woods’ ASTOR & ELIS for Chesky Records and the Quintet’s MILE HIGH JAZZ for Concord Jazz. Rob Stoneback Rob Stoneback is the leader, featured trombonist, and chief arranger of the Rob Stoneback Big Band. Rob has played trombone for over 50 years and has been a big band leader for over 36 years. Besides playing with the Tommy Dorsey, Glenn Miller, Jimmy Dorsey, and Harry James Orchestras, Rob has performed with many stars of the entertainment world, including Natalie Cole, Johnny Mathis, The Manhattan Transfer, Aretha Franklin, Frank Sinatra Jr., Olivia Newton-John, The Temptations, The Four Tops, Lou Rawls, Joan Rivers, Bob Newhart, Rosemary Clooney, Jack Jones, Wayne Newton, Bobby Rydell, Sonny and Cher, Don Rickles, and Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme. 7 In the world of jazz, Rob has taken the stage with Clark Terry, Stanley Turrentine, Bill Watrous, Bobby Watson, Diane Schuur, Bernard Purdie, David “Fathead” Newman, Urbie Green, Wycliffe Gordon, Rufus Reid, Bobby Sanabria, David Sanchez, and Al Grey. The Rob Stoneback Big Band’s recording Mad to the Bone features the legendary trombonist Bill Watrous. Bill Watrous said the Rob Stoneback Big Band is “one of the finest bands I’ve ever played with.” Check out Rob’s website at robstonebackbigband. com. Previous recordings by Rob and the guys are Up Front (1983), Traditions (1990), and Caught in the Web (1997). In 2013, Rob released a combo album, Bare Bones, that features himself, Bill Watrous, and fellow Lehigh Valleyites, Craig Kastelnik, and Gary Rissmiller. In May 2007, the Rob Stoneback Big Band recorded with Simone, Nina Simone’s daughter. With her Rob and his band performed at Lincoln Center, the Berks Jazz Festival, The World Café, and the Whitaker Center. As Simone’s musical director, Rob also played at the Telluride Jazz Festival, the Sioux Falls Jazz and Blues Festival, the Jazz and Ribs Festival, and at other venues in Illinois, Ohio, Florida, Connecticut, and Massachusetts. Mr. Stoneback was a clinician at the Eastern Trombone Workshop at Ft.

  • Discography Updates (Updated May, 2021)
    Discography Updates (Updated May, 2021) I’ve been amassing corrections and additions since the August, 2012 publication of Pepper Adams’ Joy Road. Its 2013 paperback edition gave me a chance to overhaul the Index. For reasons I explain below, it’s vastly superior to the index in the hardcover version. But those are static changes, fixed in the manuscript. Discographers know that their databases are instantly obsolete upon publication. New commercial recordings continue to get released or reissued. Audience recordings are continually discovered. Errors are unmasked, and missing information slowly but surely gets supplanted by new data. That’s why discographies in book form are now a rarity. With the steady stream of updates that are needed to keep a discography current, the internet is the ideal medium. When Joy Road goes out of print, in fact, my entire book with updates will be posted right here. At that time, many of these changes will be combined with their corresponding entries. Until then, to give you the fullest sense of each session, please consult the original entry as well as information here. Please send any additions, corrections or comments to http://gc-pepperadamsblog.blogspot.com/, despite the content of the current blog post. Addition: OLIVER SHEARER 470900 September 1947, unissued demo recording, United Sound Studios, Detroit: Willie Wells tp; Pepper Adams cl; Tommy Flanagan p; Oliver Shearer vib, voc*; Charles Burrell b; Patt Popp voc.^ a Shearer Madness (Ow!) b Medley: Stairway to the Stars A Hundred Years from Today*^ Correction: 490900A Fall 1949 The recording was made in late 1949 because it was reviewed in the December 17, 1949 issue of Billboard.
