Contwe're ACT CITI PRESENTS TONY BENNETT AND LADY GAGA IN A VERY SPECIAL POST-GRAMMY® CONCERT – Sunday, Feb. 8, 2015 – The Wiltern – Tickets On Sale Friday, Oct. 3, 10 a.m. – – New Album Cheek To Cheek On Sale Now – LOS ANGELES (Sept. 26, 2014) – Live Nation is pleased to announce a very special evening with Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga on Sunday, Feb. 8 at The Wiltern to celebrate their new collaborative jazz album Cheek To Cheek. The special post-Grammy® performance begins at 9:30 p.m. and will feature both big band and orchestra. Tickets go on sale Friday, Oct. 3, 2014 at 10:00 a.m. Cheek To Cheek was released this week on Sept. 23 and has been greeted with widespread praise and critical acclaim. Cheek To Cheek features classic jazz standards sung by Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett in a combination of vocal duets and solo performances. From the title track to “But Beautiful” to “I Won’t Dance,” the record showcases the chemistry between the two artists, who span 60 years in age. As Bennett says, “What I really love about being a jazz singer is that jazz artists are very creative, very honest, from phrase to phrase” and Lady Gaga adds, “We wanted to make something that sounded perfect because of the quality of the emotion…the honesty.” Cheek To Cheek also features the Lady Gaga solo “Lush Life,” accompanied by Tony Bennett’s solo of “Sophisticated Lady.” The two songs complement each other, as Lady Gaga explains, “I loved making ‘Lush Life,’ Tony mentored me emotionally through the process,” and Tony Bennett adds, “I sang ‘Sophisticated Lady’ to answer her on ‘Lush Life,’ and because Duke Ellington wrote it, who collaborated with Billy Strayhorn, the writer of ‘Lush Life.’” Recorded in New York City, Cheek To Cheek took over a year to complete and features jazz musicians associated with both artists including members of Bennett’s quartet: Mike Renzi, Gray Sargent, Harold Jones and Marshall Wood as well pianist Tom Ranier. Jazz trumpeter Brian Newman, a long-time friend and colleague of Lady Gaga appears on the album as well with his NYC-based jazz quintet. Jazz soloists on selected tracks include tenor saxophonist Joe Lovano, trumpeter George Rabbai and flutist Paul Horn, who passed away in July. “We are thrilled to present this very special show particularly on a night that acknowledges greatness in music,” said Arthur Fogel, president of global touring and chairman of global music, Live Nation.

What the critics are saying about Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga: Cheek To Cheek: An unlikely pairing results in beautiful music...She's a revelation" – People Magazine "A sassy Gaga enthusiastically belts out her lines, while Bennett is as always elegant and precise in his phrasing." – Associated Press "'Cheek to Cheek' serves up the real thing, start to finish. If you didn't know the name of the vocalist and the kind of publicity that surrounds her, you'd surely say: Who's that swing singer, and why haven't I heard of her before?" – Chicago Tribune "Gaga and Bennett? It's an epic musical mash-up" – USA Today "'Cheek to Cheek' is a straightforward jazz album, gorgeous and well crafted, with Gaga supporting the masterful Bennett at every turn." – Newsday "...Magical results...glorious jazz album...a musical match made in jazz/standards heaven...there is so much to enjoy and discover...intoxicating prowess..." – Chicago Sun Times About Live Nation Entertainment Live Nation Entertainment (NYSE: LYV) is the world’s leading live entertainment company comprised of global market leaders: Ticketmaster, Live Nation & House of Blues Concerts, LN Media and Artist Nation Management.

  • Reading and Interpreting Big Band Drum Charts
    Reading and Interpreting Big Band Drum Charts READING AND INTERPRETING BIG BAND DRUM CHARTS SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS LEARNED OVER TIME 1. Playing “pulse” with a bass player is always a fun experience, or my “nemesis”! There has always been heated discussions as to whether certain bass players or drummers play “on top” (meaning a bit ahead) of the beat, in the center of the beat, or behind the beat. Others believe that good combinations of players happen when a drummer plays “on top” while the bassist plays slightly behind, or vice-versa. I’ve always found music to be at its best when the drummer and bassist interpret the pulse in the same man- ner, whether both on top or both in the center, or in rare instances both on the lazy side of the pulse. Young students must realize that these “top”, “center”, and “backside” of the beat interpretations are more a musical feeling related to the overall energy that a drummer and bass player produce, not the feeling produced by rhythm sections that actually “rush” or “drag” the original tempo. Playing steady time while creating a great “feel” is generally the excepted goal of all great rhythm section players regardless of the style of music. 2. Playing great music takes intelligence and passion. I heard a great saying once by the respected composer and bandleader George Russell. In talking about emotion and skill he said, “I’ve heard really good players play with a lot of heart and emotion but not much intellect. And, I’ve heard many good players who perform with loads of intellect, but not much passion.
