  • Chico Freeman Extended
    Chico Freeman Heralded as one of the most important saxophonists of our time, composer and producer, Chico Freeman has perfected an immediately recognizable approach to music and composition, blending what he has experienced from his past and providing fluidity into a future of infinite musical possibilities. In the early 2000s, with dozens of recordings as a leader, Freeman moved from New York to Europe to start a new chapter of his life -- exploration by focusing on his own self-improvement and self-reflection. His thirst to immerse himself in his music, his curiosity to explore working with different musicians and living in different cultures and challenging himself to be better than he was. “As much as I’ve travelled and on the road playing with such masters as McCoy Tyner, Elvin Jones, Jack DeJohnette, Sam Rivers, Sun Ra, Dizzy Gillespie and so many jazz greats, as well as leading my own groups including founding “The Leaders” and the group “Roots,” an inner voice was telling me, you need to go to another level both musically and personally,“ Freeman explains. “You need to work with other musicians from different cultures and create new avenues of expression. As part of the Freeman family legacy of Chicago; his father, legendary NEA Jazz Master saxophonist Von Freeman; his uncles, guitarist George Freeman; and drummer Bruz Freeman, Chico amassed a diverse résumé of performing R&B to blues, hard bop to avant-garde. His collegiate studies in Advanced Composition and Theory at Northwestern University led him to teach composition at the AACM (Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians) Music School, and while attaining his Masters in Composition and Theory at Governor State University, he studied composition with NEA Jazz Master Muhal Richard Abrams.

  • Bird's Bebop Brother Goes Home
    gram JAZZ PROMOTING AND NURTURING JAZZ IN CHICAGO SEPTEMBER 2020 WWW.JAZZINCHICAGO.ORG BIRD’S BEBOP BROTHER GOES HOME JOE SEGAL, JIC CO-FOUNDER, 2015 NEA JAZZ MASTER, REMEMBERED BY MUSICIANS AND MUSIC LOVERS BY COREY HALL While our current reality resembles Orson Welles’ War of the Worlds on steroids, let us escape and celebrate Joe Segal -- April 24, 1926-August 10, 2020 -- who brought jazz to Chicago for more than seven decades. Imagine… Scene: August 10, 2020. Place: Tadd’s Hot House. Charlie Parker, firm, fit, and poison-free since March 12, 1955, is sheddin’ “Just Friends” when in walks Joe. “Hey, man! It’s about time!” Bird exclaims, embracing his brother in bop. “What were you up to? Reading the list of upcoming cats?” “I was busy saving the youth,” Joe replies, while readjusting his Cubs cap. “Keeping them safe from the ‘Yookey Dukes!’” Both brothers laugh, embrace again, and then cast their sights down at this page, now a stage, where dudes and dudettes carrying voices, horns and guitars gather to take on this thought prompter: “What song sums up your experience with and/or appreciation of Joe Segal?” (The tunes designated with an asterisk are accompanied by a video available by clicking on the link or thumbnail). Solitaire Anna Miles, vocalist: (*) “I did every gig at the Jazz Showcase with Willie Pickens. We always opened with “Exactly Like You," and if Joe was there, he would sing it with me from the audience, so I think he liked the tune…or at least the way Willie and I did it.

  • Settimanale Di Migros Ticino La Voce Di Chicago (E Di Chico)
    Biglietti a concorso «Azione» offre ai propri lettori la possibilità di aggiudicarsi biglietti gratuiti per il concerto di Chico Freeman and the Voices of Chicago. Per partecipare seguire le istruzioni nella pagina web www.azione.ch/concorsi. Buona Fortuna! La voce di Chicago (e di Chico) Jazz - Da Chiasso, il 16/11, un tributo alla Windy City / 04.11.2019 di AZ La geografia del jazz, negli USA, è molto più che una semplice mappa territoriale. Parlare di New York, di Kansas City, di San Francisco, per non dire di New Orleans, significa richiamare alla mente specifiche e ben definite varianti stilistiche, con una loro tradizione e un loro posto preciso nella storia della musica neroamericana. In questo swingante panorama brilla di luce propria la città di Chicago. Per la storia della comunità nera la capitale del Michigan ha esercitato fin dai tempi passati un’attrazione molto speciale. È stata infatti meta della fuga di molti schiavi del Sud, che cercavano nel Nord degli Stati Uniti la possibilità di emanciparsi, di vedere riconosciuti i propri diritti. Non a caso la Windy City ha costituito l’incubatore di nuove forme di espressione musicale: in qualche modo ha raccolto l’eredità del blues che gli immigrati del sud portavano con sé e ha trasformato un repertorio acustico e rurale, malinconico, nel sanguigno «blues di Chicago», che è elettrico, urbano e graffiante. Anche nell’ambito più propriamente jazz Chicago ha giocato un suo ruolo. Negli anni della contestazione e della presa di coscienza della comunità neroamericana, si è creato proprio qui un movimento culturale d’avanguardia, che esplorava nuove modalità espressive e di collettivizzazione artistica.

  • George Freeman
    George Freeman Song Samples: George Freeman Radio Sign-up at http://www.radiosubmit.com to download songs for free. "All In The Family" brings together two members of Chicago's Freeman family that have never been recorded together until now: legendary guitarist George Freeman (who celebrated his 88th birthday on April 10th, 2015) and world-renowned saxophonist Chico Freeman (George's nephew and Von Freeman's son.) Together, they present their musical legacy of Chicago Jazz! Certainly, the late, great leader of the family, tenor saxophonist Von Freeman is smiling somewhere today! All of the tracks are original songs (with the exception of the haunting "Angel Eyes") and feature compositions from George Freeman "My Scenery" and "Vonski"; and from Chico Freeman "Latina Bonita" and "Essence of Silence"; along with several short Improvisations that provide a compelling flow to the recording. "Five Days in May" features Reto Weber on the 'hang' - a track that should have everyone up and dancing with joy! A lifetime of music, from playing with Charlie Parker to Gene Ammons and his many fine recordings, George Freeman was recently selected as Chicagoan of the Year in Jazz by Chicago Tribune Arts Critic Howard Reich! Chico Freeman's career has taken him from his early years with Chicago's AACM to Earth, Wind and Fire to producing, performing and recording with legendary musicians in New York, including Elvin Jones, to today's International Jazz Festivals. Musicians featured on the recording are: George Freeman, guitar; Chico Freeman, tenor and soprano saxophones; Kirk Brown, piano; Harrison Bankhead, bass; Hamid Drake, drums; Mike Allemana, guitar; Joe Jenkins, drums; and special guest Reto Weber, hang and percussion.

  • 1987 DOWN BEAT 17 Melodic, Blues-Based Invention of Ornette Coleman, Or the Doing, They Weren't Interested in His Enthusiasm
    By Stanley Crouch Editor's note: We last interviewed Wynton Marsalis in 1984. Since tha.t time his popularity and notoriety have, if anything, grown and, as can be seen in the following interview, he views his position with the utmost responsibility and seriousness. It is interesting to note that despite-or perhaps because of-his popularity, the trumpeter has become the focal point in a critical controversy waged over questions of innovation vs. imitation. In addressing these questions, and those concerning his success, the importance of knowledge and technical preparation for a career in music, and the role of jazz education, he brings the same carefully considered articulation which identifies his musical creativity. • • • STANLEY CROUCH: Do you hove anything to soy before we humility to one day add to the already noble tradition that first begin, on opening statement? took wing in the Crescent City. It still befuddles me that all the drums Jeff Watts is playing has been overlooked. He's isolating WYNTON MARSALIS: Yes. I want to make clear some things I aspects of time in fluctuating but cohesive parts, each of which think have been misunderstood. Were I playing the level of horn I swings, and his skill at thematic development through his aspire to, I don't think I would be giving interviews; I would be instrument within the form is nasty.
