  • Steve Wilson 10 2011 Prel
    For Immediate Release October 31, 2011 With Four Sold-Out Shows at Kennedy Center Jazz Club, NPR Coverage, and Rave Previews & Reviews, Steve Wilson Continues to Build a Remarkable Career New CD Planned for 2012 Acclaimed jazz saxophonist Steve Wilson recently opened the 2011/2012 season at Kennedy Center Jazz Club with four sold-out sets, live coverage by NPR, rave previews & reviews and more. Wilson continues to sculpt an impressive career as a headliner, sideman, educator and jazz historian, and remains one of the most well-liked, in- demand and respected figures in jazz. Standing ovations greeted Wilson’s sets at the Kennedy Center, and shows were recorded for broadcast next year on NPR’s JazzSet with Dee Dee Bridgewater, adding to Wilson’s extensive NPR presence, as outlined below. While in Washington D.C., Wilson showed his ongoing dedication as an educator and mentor, with a workshop at the Ellington School and a sold-out clinic for middle school students at the KC Jazz Club with his quartet, discussing the evolution of jazz from swing to be-bop, and Charlie Parker's influence in that movement. Recent, Current and Upcoming performances: - Wilson made his ‘Detroit debut’ as a leader, performing with his own band, during September’s Detroit Jazz Festival. Rapturous reviews ran in major daily The Detroit Free Press (see below). - Wilson just traveled home from Europe, where he toured with the Maria Schneider Orchestra. - A few days after his return from Europe, Wilson leaves for Japan with Terumasa Hino & Lewis Nash Japan-US All-Star Big Band, featuring Renee Rosnes, Terrell Stafford, Gary Smulyan, Peter Washington and Jimmy Green.

    Recorded Jazz in the Early 21st Century: A Consumer Guide by Tom Hull Copyright © 2016 Tom Hull. Table of Contents Introduction................................................................................................................................................1 The Consumer Guide: People....................................................................................................................7 The Consumer Guide: Groups................................................................................................................119 Reissues and Vault Music.......................................................................................................................139 Introduction: 1 Introduction This book exists because Robert Christgau asked me to write a Jazz Consumer Guide column for the Village Voice. As Music Editor for the Voice, he had come up with the Consumer Guide format back in 1969. His original format was twenty records, each accorded a single-paragraph review ending with a letter grade. His domain was rock and roll, but his taste and interests ranged widely, so his CGs regularly featured country, blues, folk, reggae, jazz, and later world (especially African), hip-hop, and electronica. Aside from two years off working for Newsday (when his Consumer Guide was published monthly in Creem), the Voice published his columns more-or-less monthly up to 2006, when new owners purged most of the Senior Editors. Since then he's continued writing in the format for a series of Webzines -- MSN Music, Medium,

    NEW YORK February 2009 | No. 82 Your FREE Monthly Guide to the New York Jazz Scene newyork.allaboutjazz.com CHICO HAMILTON JOYOUS SHOUT Charli Persip • Larry Ochs • Blue Note Records • Miller Theater • Event Calendar NEW YORK We hate to be the ones to temper all the post-election enthusiasm for potentially New York@Night more arts support, but it seems like the financial crisis facing the world has 4 trickled (or deluged) down into jazz. Recent reports indicate that Festival Network, which took over George Wein’s Festival Productions company last year, Interview: Charli Persip has laid off most its staff, making it uncertain if New York (or any other city for 6 by George Kanzler that matter) has seen its last JVC Jazz Festival. We will report more as we obtain Artist Feature: Larry Ochs information but this is a serious blow as jazz rarely got that level of exposure otherwise. Another, more personal casualty, is the dismissal of legendary jazz 7 by Marc Medwin journalist Nat Hentoff from the Village Voice after 50 years. His final column for Label Spotlight: Blue Note Records the once-proud counterculture rag was Jan. 6th, 2009. Hentoff will still continue writing for other outlets including, ironically, the Wall Street Journal. 8 by Joel Roberts But jazz as an art form has weathered such storms before and, honestly, how Club Profile: Miller Theater much smaller can its market share get anyway? It has become a music of perseverance, something to which drummers Chico Hamilton and Charli Persip by Marcia Hillman (On The Cover and Interview, respectively) and saxophonist Larry Ochs (Artist On The Cover: Chico Hamilton Feature) can attest.

A musician’s musician, Wilson has brought his distinctive sound to more than 100 recordings led by such celebrated and wide-ranging artists as Chick Corea, George Duke, Michael Brecker, Dave Holland, Dianne Reeves, Bill Bruford, Gerald Wilson, Maria Schneider, Joe Henderson, Charlie Byrd, Billy Childs, Karrin Allyson, Don Byron, Bill Stewart, James Williams, and Mulgrew Miller among many others. Wilson has seven recordings under his own name, leading and collaborating with such stellar musicians as Lewis Nash, Carl Allen, Steve Nelson, Cyrus Chestnut, Greg Hutchinson, Dennis Irwin, James Genus, Larry Grenadier, Ray Drummond, Ben Riley, and Nicholas Payton. Starting his formal training on saxophone in his native Hampton, Virginia, Wilson also played oboe and drums in school bands while performing in various R&B/funk bands throughout his teens. After a year-long stint with singer Stephanie Mills he decided to major in music at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, where he performed and/or studied with Jimmy and Percy Heath, Jon Hendricks, Jaki Byard, John Hicks, Frank Foster and Ellis Marsalis. During those years he was also in constant demand for recording studio work, and as backing musician for touring shows such as The Four Tops and Sophisticated Ladies. Landing a chair with O.T.B (Out of the Blue), a sextet of promising young players recording on Blue Note Records, Wilson moved to New York in 1987 and the following year toured the U.S.

  • The Wilsonian Institute
    32 JAZZTIMES • JUNE 2015 CREDIT THE CONSUMMATE SAXOPHONIST- COMPOSER STEVE WILSON HAS A NEW LIVE ALBUM—HIS FIRST FULL-BAND DATE AS A LEADER SINCE 2003— AND MUCH TO SAY ABOUT HIS THREE the DECADES AS A WORKING MUSICIAN Wilsonian Institute teve Wilson, one of the finest alto and soprano saxophonists of our time, might not ordinarily ponder his earliest days as a full-time musician. But the details are particularly clear in his mind as we settle in for lunch at Henry’s, on West 105th Street and Broadway in New York. This is where the “new” Birdland stood before moving to its current home on West 44th Street. “One of the first times I played in New York was here [at Birdland] with Jaki Byard,” Wilson recounts, fixing the year as 1987. “[Byard] had come to [Virginia Commonwealth Univer- sity] as an artist-in-residence, and he told me to look him up when I came to New York. When I did, he said, ‘Yeah, come by Birdland and play.’ It was right over there.” Wilson motions behind us. We attend to our niçoise salads, the vanished band- stand 20 feet away. Bit by bit, Wilson’s impact on live jazz in New York became considerable. Over two decades later, the famed Village Vanguard booked Wilson for repeat engagements with his new quartet, Wilsonian’s Grain (or “The Grain,” as he calls it for short). On Live in New York: The Vanguard Sessions (Random Act) one can sense the rhythmic heat and flux of those nights with pianist Orrin Evans, bassist Ugonna Okegwo and drummer Bill Stewart.
