Bandinfo Schmid's Huhn 2014 Englisch After many years of conjoint work Cologne based saxophonists Stefan Karl Schmid and Leonhard Huhn created a new Quartet named “Schmid’s Huhn” as their means of expression. With bassist Stefan Schönegg and drummer Fabian Arends they will release their next album in the fall of 2014. Schmid and Huhn understand each other instinctively. Their ‘slight and powerful tone’ (Jazzthing) merges into one sound at which it folds contrapuntally in the very next moment opening up new sound scopes. This phenomenon is used in their compositions to reveal tonal details, attrition and different colors. They improvise, communicate and interact with each other whereat the treatment of the individually composed material is conducted by the particular moment. With bass and drums an earthy and lyrical sound arises which ‘sovereignly fills the space between tradition and avant-garde’ (Jazzpodium). Together Schmid and Huhn have been very successful over the last couple of years. In 2011 they won the composition award at the ‘Tremplin Jazz D’Avignon Festival in France, the ‘Sparda-Jazz-Award’ 2012 and in 2013 they have been nominated for the ‘New German Jazztrophy’.

  • The Bad Ass Pulse by Martin Longley
    December 2010 | No. 104 Your FREE Monthly Guide to the New York Jazz Scene aaj-ny.com The THE Bad Ass bad Pulse PLUS Mulgrew Miller • Microscopic Septet • Origin • Event Calendar Many people have spoken to us over the years about the methodology we use in putting someone on our cover. We at AllAboutJazz-New York consider that to be New York@Night prime real estate, if you excuse the expression, and use it for celebrating those 4 musicians who have that elusive combination of significance and longevity (our Interview: Mulgrew Miller Hall of Fame, if you will). We are proud of those who have graced our front page, lamented those legends who have since passed and occasionally even fêted 6 by Laurel Gross someone long deceased who deserved another moment in the spotlight. Artist Feature: Microscopic Septet But as our issue count grows and seminal players are fewer and fewer, we must expand our notion of significance. Part of that, not only in the jazz world, has by Ken Dryden 7 been controversy, those players or groups that make people question their strict On The Cover: The Bad Plus rules about what is or what is not whatever. Who better to foment that kind of 9 by Martin Longley discussion than this month’s On The Cover, The Bad Plus, only the third time in our history that we have featured a group. This tradition-upending trio is at Encore: Lest We Forget: Village Vanguard from the end of December into the first days of January. 10 Bill Smith Johnny Griffin Another band that has pushed the boundaries of jazz, first during the ‘80s but now with an acclaimed reunion, is the Microscopic Septet (Artist Feature).

    SING! INGE, SING! THE SHATTERED DREAM OF INGE BRANDENBURG A film by Marc Boettcher Germany 2011, 118 minutes, DF Release date in cinemas: Autumn 2011 Press contact: JAN KÜNEMUND for Edition Salzgeber Mehringdamm 33 · 10961 Berlin Telefon +49 30 / 285 290 70 · Telefax +49 30 / 285 290 99 [email protected] · www.salzgeber.de SUMMARY In Germany, jazz had a voice: Inge Brandenburg. Inge Brandenburg had a difficult upbringing and soon had to learn to stand on her own two feet, but by the late 1950s she was being acclaimed as Europe’s finest female jazz singer. Time magazine compared her with Billie Holi- day, while musicians in general admired her. But the Ger- man record industry ignored her or tried unsuccessfully to reduce her to singing hit songs. This is the story of a woman in the 1950s and 1960s, when there was no place in Germany for self-assured women with international aspirations, a dramatic per- formance style and an emancipated attitude to love. Only through SING! INGE, SING is it possible to dis- cover a great German artiste. PRESS NOTICE It was at a flea market in Munich that the collector Tho- mas Rautenberg discovered an old photograph album containing photographs of an attractive woman who was completely unknown to him. He started to leaf through it and found a number of signed cards. The woman in question turned out to be Germany’s former Number One Jazz Singer, Inge Brandenburg (1929–1999). Rautenberg acquired a part of her estate and tried to find out more about her.

  • European Jazz Orchestra EJO
    Swinging Europe and the EBU present European Jazz Orchestra EJO www.swinging-europe.com Peter Herbolzheimer - A Portrait The same year that Peter Herbolzheimer was born, Glenn Miller had just joined Ray Noble, Benny Goodman recorded King Porter Stomp, and played with his band at the Palomar Ballroom in Los Angeles. And right at the beginning of this great Swing Period - which gave the world the star that Peter Herbolzheimer was to follow - a certain Elvis Presley drew his first breath in Memphis. Many years later people were talking about Jazz rock or Fusion, both of which were more a departure from, than a combination of, separate elements. The guitar and piano were replaced by other instruments from the rhythm section, and took on the tasks of providing melody and sound. The traditional saxophone passages were then considered too soft for the new sphere of powerful rock rhythms, and finally, the complicated static chords, favoured by the big bands in the bop era, made way for more mobile lines often blown in unison. The founding of "Rythmn Combination & Brass" took place at that time. In the big band sphere, Peter Herbolzheimer took a first consequential step and gave equal focus to the rhythm and brass sections - both in numbers and inquality. Among composers and arrangers he remains to this day one of the most original and definitive figures for this form of music and its transposition for the big band. After many long years and magnificent concerts, festival appearances and recordings, the pure Jazzrock chapter was finally closed for Peter Herbolzheimer and the RC&B.

  • Lehn Erwin - 08.06.1919 in Grünstadt Pfalz
    Lehn Erwin - 08.06.1919 in Grünstadt Pfalz Allmendinger, Paul: Erwin Lehn : Bandleader ; [ein Leben zwischen Jazz und Stars] / Verf.: Paul Allmendinger - 1. Aufl. (Reihe Ed... ; ... : Biographien) - 2001 Erwin Lehn feiert am 8. Juni seinen 80. Geburtstag STUTTGART. In Deutschland wurden Big-Band-Dirigenten bekannt, die sich tänzelnd als "smiling" Entertainer vor ihren Orchestern präsentierten, beispielsweise Kurt Edelhagen, Max Greger und Paul Kuhn. Erwin Lehn gab sich dagegen stets sachlich und nüchtern, auch wenn er anfangs als "The German Jazz Hurricane" apostrophiert wurde: vierzig Jahre bestimmte er beim Süddeutschen Rundfunk die Big-Band-Musik, wobei er die ganze Skala von schlagerhafter Gebrauchsmusik bis zum avancierten Jazz abzudecken hatte. Der am 8. Juni 1919 in Grünstadt (Pfalz) geborene Erwin Lehn lernte Geige, Klavier, Vibraphon sowie Klarinette und spielte zunächst im Ensemble seines Vaters. Ab 1948 leitete er das Radio-Berlin-Tanzorchester. Seinen Dienst in Stuttgart trat Lehn, wie er selbst immer gewitzt betonte, am 1. April 1951 an. Gastsolisten bei seiner Jazz-Aktivität waren nun Größen wie Benny Goodman, Miles Davis, Tony Scott, Oliver Nelson, Maynard Ferguson, Chet Baker und Stéphane Grappelli. Stars wie Quincy Jones, Bill Holman und Don Ellis arrangierten auch für ihn. Später eigene Orchester formierten einige seiner Band-Mitglieder: Horst Jankowski, Peter Herbolzheimer, Klaus Weiss - und der Mitte Mai verstorbene Ernst Mosch, dessen erste "Egerländer" seine damaligen Jazz-Kollegen und somit originale "Lehn-Lehen" waren. Seit 1974 betrieb Erwin Lehn noch wichtige Nachwuchsförderung in der Big Band der Stuttgarter Musikhochschule. Etliche Talente hatte Professor Lehn dort entdeckt und in seinen regulären Klangkörper übernommen. Sein künstlerisches Credo: "Ich versuche, alles in der Musik so kultiviert wie möglich zu spielen.

At the Grammy Awards, many were heartened by the selection of bassist/vocalist Esperanza Spalding as the Best New Artist while most of the world asked who on earth is that? Then, more recently, the National Endowment for the Arts, which has run the Jazz Masters program for 30 years, honoring legends of the music, New York@Night announced that it was subsuming this recognition into a broader category of Artist 4 of the Year. It remains to see how many jazz musicians will be considered fit. So what to make of these developments in this Jazz Appreciation month? The Interview: Ralph Peterson pragmatist will continue to say that it’s been quite a long time since jazz got any 6 by Anders Griffen real help from anybody and that it is up to its adherents, musician and listener, old-timer and newbie, to keep the music alive and relevant. You may have heard Artist Feature: Vinny Golia the term indie batted around; well, jazz is now squarely at that level. Major support 7 by Wilbur MacKenzie is infrequent and intermittent and much of the best work in the field rests with the individual rather than an institution or movement. But the optimist should be On The Cover: Toots Thielemans encouraged that grass roots do grow verdant fields and so we encourage you to 9 by Ken Dryden continue your support of jazz in all its forms and sources lest jazz fall any further in the list of Grammy Categories (#44-49 of 108).
