That advice isn’t intended to downplay the importance of mastering the fundamentals of jazz and developing improvisational chops. But rather, it addresses the reality that it can be tough to make a decent living as a musician. Many working musicians nowadays are able to thrive because they have one foot firmly planted in the jazz world, but they’re also flexible enough to play a session of pop, r&b, hip-hop or classical music. In our October issue, in a feature on the University of Miami’s Frost School of Music, the school’s dean, Shelly Berg, said that one of his institution’s goals is “to engender a culture of respect for all types of music.” He also described the way that Frost’s jazz and classical music majors frequently perform together. For many working musicians today, it’s all about ignoring boundaries, playing music that they love, following their creative pursuits, and tapping into multiple genres—all while being mindful of the need to pay the rent. This issue of DownBeat spotlights a number of musicians who have the ability to play in a variety of settings and in multiple styles. Our feature on Erik Friedlander (page 38) is a fascinating look at a widely respected jazz improviser whose pri- mary instrument—cello—is one that many listeners associate with classical music. In his work as a bandleader and as a collaborator with a Erik Friedlander diversity of artists, including John Zorn, Friedlander has shown an adventurous spirit and opened people’s ears to what a cello can do. His latest leader album, Oscalypso, is a tribute to one of his heroes, jazz cellist and bassist Oscar Pettiford. See our sidebar on page 40 for an overview of the intriguing yet tragically short life of this jazz icon. In our Players section, we profile another import- ant jazz cellist, Tomeka Reid (page 22). Her background in formal studies of the clas- sical repertoire has greatly informed the genre-blend- ing music that she makes today. Reid is an artist to watch, as evidenced by her impressive work as a band- leader and as a collaborator RACHEL STERN with ensembles such as the Roscoe Mitchell Quartet (see page 46 for our review of the quartet’s album Celebrating Fred Anderson). Elsewhere in this issue, we catch up with pianist Aaron Diehl (page 30). Many jazz fans know him for his work with singer Cécile McLorin Salvant, but he’s also an exciting leader whose latest album, Space Time Continuum, has helped raise his profile. Journalist Allen Morrison got a firsthand look at how classical music has informed Diehl’s musical perspective. During the interview, which took place in Diehl’s home, the pianist illustrated many of his points by playing examples on his Steinway. (Diehl graciously gave DownBeat a three-hour interview, and we didn’t have room for all the terrific material in our print edition, so we will post a longer version of this feature on our website in October.) Drawing from multiple genres can lead artists down intriguing paths as they pursue the muse. One wouldn’t automatically associate a jazz icon like John Sco- field with country music, but in our cover story (page 24), he talks about how his forthcoming project will nod to that genre and possibly include such high-profile collaborators as bassist Steve Swallow, drummer Brian Blade and keyboardist Larry Goldings. We look forward to that. After soaking in the music on Scofield’s tremendously powerful, deeply heartfelt album Past Present—featuring contribu- tions from tenor sax titan Joe Lovano—we simply can’t get enough Sco. DB 8 DOWNBEAT NOVEMBER 2015 Chords Discords Fighting an Epidemic Paquito D’Rivera Kudos to Paquito D’Rivera for taking on the epidemic of over-amplification (“Al- fred Nobel and the Invention of the Mi- crophone,” June). I constantly encounter musicians in clubs or small concert spaces being amplified as if they’re playing large concert halls or stadiums. Here in Balti- more we have a great, intimate 75-seat concert venue called An die Musik. I have played there several times with unampli- fied clarinet, saxophone and piano, and everyone in the audience can hear those instruments just fine. Yet just about every other piano or horn player has chosen to be amplified there. I understand that guitarists, and often bassists, need amps. But I hope that pre- senters and musicians will heed Paquito’s warnings and turn down the volume or even eliminate the microphones and amps entirely. Our ears—both aesthetically and physically—need the relief. BOB JACOBSON R. ANDREW LEPLEY BALTIMORE Redd Defense right is his praise for bassist Jay Anderson and I am writing to express my disagreement drummer Billy Drummond.

  • Jimmy Raney Thesis: Blurring the Barlines By: Zachary Streeter
    Jimmy Raney Thesis: Blurring the Barlines By: Zachary Streeter A Thesis submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Jazz History and Research Graduate Program in Arts written under the direction of Dr. Lewis Porter and Dr. Henry Martin And approved by Newark, New Jersey May 2016 ©2016 Zachary Streeter ALL RIGHT RESERVED ABSTRACT Jimmy Raney Thesis: Blurring the Barlines By: Zach Streeter Thesis Director: Dr. Lewis Porter Despite the institutionalization of jazz music, and the large output of academic activity surrounding the music’s history, one is hard pressed to discover any information on the late jazz guitarist Jimmy Raney or the legacy Jimmy Raney left on the instrument. Guitar, often times, in the history of jazz has been regulated to the role of the rhythm section, if the guitar is involved at all. While the scope of the guitar throughout the history of jazz is not the subject matter of this thesis, the aim is to present, or bring to light Jimmy Raney, a jazz guitarist who I believe, while not the first, may have been among the first to pioneer and challenge these conventions. I have researched Jimmy Raney’s background, and interviewed two people who knew Jimmy Raney: his son, Jon Raney, and record producer Don Schlitten. These two individuals provide a beneficial contrast as one knew Jimmy Raney quite personally, and the other knew Jimmy Raney from a business perspective, creating a greater frame of reference when attempting to piece together Jimmy Raney.

    Bobby Hutcherson, Vibraphonist With Coloristic Range of Soun... http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/17/arts/music/bobby-hutchers... http://nyti.ms/2bdO8F9 MUSIC Bobby Hutcherson, Vibraphonist With Coloristic Range of Sound, Dies at 75 By NATE CHINEN AUG. 16, 2016 Bobby Hutcherson, one of the most admired and accomplished vibraphonists in jazz, died on Monday at his home in Montara, Calif. He was 75. Marshall Lamm, a spokesman for Mr. Hutcherson’s family, confirmed the death, saying Mr. Hutcherson had long been treated for emphysema. Mr. Hutcherson’s career took flight in the early 1960s, as jazz was slipping free of the complex harmonic and rhythmic designs of bebop. He was fluent in that language, but he was also one of the first to adapt his instrument to a freer postbop language, often playing chords with a pair of mallets in each hand. He released more than 40 albums and appeared on many more, including some regarded as classics, like “Out to Lunch,” by the alto saxophonist, flutist and bass clarinetist Eric Dolphy, and “Mode for Joe,” by the tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson. Both of those albums were a byproduct of Mr. Hutcherson’s close affiliation with Blue Note Records, from 1963 to 1977. He was part of a wave of young artists who defined the label’s forays into experimentalism, including the pianist Andrew Hill and the alto saxophonist Jackie McLean. But he also worked with hard-bop stalwarts like the tenor saxophonist Dexter Gordon, and he later delved into jazz-funk and Afro-Latin grooves. Mr. Hutcherson had a clear, ringing sound, but his style was luminescent and 1 of 4 8/17/16, 2:43 PM Bobby Hutcherson, Vibraphonist With Coloristic Range of Soun..

  • Béla Fleck & Abigail Washburn
    BÉLA FLECK & ABIGAIL WASHBURN ADELAIDE TOWN HALL 12 AUGUST 8PM USA ADELAIDE PREMIERE 16 - time Grammy winner Béla Fleck and his critically lauded partner Abigail Washburn bring together, in a seemingly mystical union, Fleck’s revered modern compositions for banjo with Washburn’s equally respected old-school take on the instrument. Their 2014 debut duo album revealed new musical possibilities found in their combined styles, heralded by Washburn’s angelic voice. The triumph of their collaboration was recognised when the record won the 2016 Grammy Award for Best Folk Album. “A stunning collection of eloquent duets” – THE NEW YORKER “the couple has mined various intimate intricacies of the banjo duet, using an aesthetic of front-porch minimalism to play an eclectic mix of country blues, Appalachian mountain songs and expansive chamber folk…. The duo's eponymous debut is filled with understated force” – WASHINGTON POST “two monsters of the banjo” – NPR All Things Considered BÉLA FLECK & ABIGAIL WASHBURN Sure, in the abstract, a banjo duo might seem like a musical concept beset by limitations. But when the banjo players cast in those roles are Abigail Washburn and Béla Fleck—she with the earthy sophistication of a postmodern, old-time singer-songwriter, he with the virtuosic, jazz-to-classical ingenuity of an iconic instrumentalist and composer with bluegrass roots— it’s a different matter entirely. There’s no denying that theirs is a one-of-a-kind pairing, with one-of- a-kind possibilities. Fleck and Washburn have collaborated in the past, most visibly in their Sparrow Quartet with Casey Driessen and Ben Sollee.

  • 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”.

  • French Stewardship of Jazz: the Case of France Musique and France Culture
    ABSTRACT Title: FRENCH STEWARDSHIP OF JAZZ: THE CASE OF FRANCE MUSIQUE AND FRANCE CULTURE Roscoe Seldon Suddarth, Master of Arts, 2008 Directed By: Richard G. King, Associate Professor, Musicology, School of Music The French treat jazz as “high art,” as their state radio stations France Musique and France Culture demonstrate. Jazz came to France in World War I with the US army, and became fashionable in the 1920s—treated as exotic African- American folklore. However, when France developed its own jazz players, notably Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli, jazz became accepted as a universal art. Two well-born Frenchmen, Hugues Panassié and Charles Delaunay, embraced jazz and propagated it through the Hot Club de France. After World War II, several highly educated commentators insured that jazz was taken seriously. French radio jazz gradually acquired the support of the French government. This thesis describes the major jazz programs of France Musique and France Culture, particularly the daily programs of Alain Gerber and Arnaud Merlin, and demonstrates how these programs display connoisseurship, erudition, thoroughness, critical insight, and dedication. France takes its “stewardship” of jazz seriously.
