    Laurence Hobgood "One of the *inest pianists out there. Period." --All About Jazz “ . one of the most incredible pianists I’ve ever heard.” --Dave Brubeck "Welcome to a new piano star . Laurence Hobgood . --The Independent (UK) Best known for his collaboration with vocalist Kurt Elling, multiple Grammy-nominee and 2010 Grammy-winner Laurence Hobgood has enjoyed a multi-faceted and dynamic career. Musical Director for Elling since 1995, he’s played on, composed, arranged and co-produced all of Elling’s CDs (six for Blue Note and three for Concord), each Grammy- nominated. 2009’s Dedicated To You: Kurt Elling Sings The Music Of Coltrane and Hartman, recorded live at Lincoln Center, won the 2010 Grammy Award for Best Vocal Jazz Record. Hobgood began formal piano study at age six in Dallas, Texas, where his father was Chairman of the Southern Methodist University theatre program. At age 12, he was introduced to gospel and blues through his family's church. Several years later, after moving to Illinois, he began formal training in jazz. He attended the University of Illinois, where he played for three years in the "A" jazz ensemble led by John Garvey. During that time his classical study continued with Ian Hobson. After moving to Chicago in 1988, he established a local presence leading his own quintet and joining forces with some of Chicago's premier players, including Ed Peterson, Fareed Haque, and most importantly seven-time Grammy Award-winning drummer, Paul Wertico. The group, Trio New, with Hobgood, Wertico, and bassist Eric Hochberg, played to critical acclaim and established a serious connection with Wertico that spans many projects and ensembles.

  • Curriculum Dado Moroni
    Edgardo Dado Moroni nasce a Genova nel 1962 e venne in contatto con la musica jazz molto presto, la sua carriera professionistica decollò all'età di 14 anni, suonando in tutta Italia con alcuni dei più importanti musicisti italiani come Franco Cerri, Tullio De Piscopo, Luciano Milanese, Gianni Basso, Sergio Fanni e Massimo Urbani e Tullio de Piscopo. All'età di 17 anni registrò il suo primo album in trio con Tullio de Piscopo e il bassista americano Julius Farmer e a 18 la seconda fatica discografica, “Bluesology” lo vide affiancato dal trombettista Franco Ambrosetti, il bassista Niels Henning Oersted Pedersen e ancora il grande Tullio De Piscopo alla batteria Nel 1983, al Sanremo Jazz Festival, incontrò il bassista Jimmy Woodie e il trombettista Harry Sweets Edison. Dado si unì al Jimmy Woode Trio, con Alvin Queen e Sangoma Everett che si alternavano alla batteria e viaggiò in tutta Europa accompagnando giganti del jazz come Clark Terry, Johnny Griffin, Freddie Hubbard, Bud Shank, Buddy De Franco, Zoot Sims e molti altri. Con il giovane e talentuoso sassofonista George Robert, Dado iniziò una lunga amicizia e collaborazione. Nel 1987 fondarono il “George Robert/Tom Harrell Quintet”. Nel 1987 l' incontro di Dado con la leggenda del contrabasso Ray Brown produsse la formazione del Trio “Two Bass Hits” con uno dei suoi più talentuosi protégé, Pierre Boussaguet. Nello stesso anno Dado incise il suo primo album newyorkese con l'altro master del contrabbasso Ron Carter (“Ron Carter presents Dado Moroni” con Grady Tate e Gene Bertoncini) per l'etichetta Emarcy Japan. Inoltre venne invitato come pianista per la tournée estiva della Mingus Dynasty, la Paris Reunion Band e come giudice al fianco di Sir Roland Hanna, Hank Jones, Barry Harris and Roger Kellaway, per il primo Thelonious Monk Jazz Competition, vinto dal pianista Marcus Roberts.

Quando siamo partiti, nel ’96, pensavamo semplicemente di fare qualcosa di diverso, se possibile di significativo, qualcosa che in città non c’era e che, secondo noi, la città avrebbe apprezzato. 2 Certamente non pensavamo a quanta strada avremmo potuto fare ma non vi è dubbio che quindici anni di festival sembrano ora aver dato ragione alle intuizioni di allora. La nostra idea si chiamò “New Conversations”, nuove conversa- zioni, nuovi modi di parlarsi, di incontrarsi, di confrontarsi: nel jazz, nella musica, nella società e con tutti quelli che avevano voglia di mettersi in gioco per ritrovarsi in una Vicenza nuova, se possibile più europea. Così, ancora una volta, anche quest’anno Vicenza uscirà di casa, per le strade e nelle piazze, per entrare nei teatri e nei locali, nelle chiese e nei musei, nei cinema e ancora all’aperto. Il tutto, con uno scopo sostanzialmente semplice: guardarsi intorno, e dentro di sé, grazie all’unico linguaggio che non ha bisogno di traduzioni, quello della musica. E di tutte le musiche, il jazz è quella che da sempre più di tutte ha cercato nuovi incontri, senza il bisogno di traduttori, né di media- tori.

Denton, Texas August, 1996 37? mi M®, 7273 THE FUNCTION OF ORAL TRADITION IN MARY LOU'S MASS BY MARY LOU WILLIAMS THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of North Texas in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF MUSIC By France Fledderus, B.C.S. Denton, Texas August, 1996 Fledderus, France. The Function of Oral Tradition in Mary Lou's Mass by Mary Lou Williams. Master of Music (Musicology), August, 1996,141 pp., 44 titles. The musical and spiritual life of Mary Lou Williams (1910 - 1981) came together in her later years in the writing of Mary Lou's Mass. Being both Roman Catholic and a jazz pianist and composer, it was inevitable that Williams would be the first jazz composer to write a setting of the mass. The degree of success resulting from the combination of jazz and the traditional forms of Western art music has always been controversial. Because of Williams's personal faith and aesthetics of music, however, she had little choice but to attempt the union of jazz and liturgical worship. After a biography of Williams, discussed in the context of her musical aesthetics, this thesis investigates the elements of conventional mass settings and oral tradition found in Mary Lou's Mass.
