Christian Mcbride Trio Added to Feb. 11 Concert with Ravi Coltrane Quartet at UCLA Live’S Royce Hall Acclaimed Bassist Replaces Geri Allen & the Timeline Band FOR IMMEDATE RELEASE January 6, 2012 Christian McBride Trio Added to Feb. 11 Concert with Ravi Coltrane Quartet at UCLA Live’s Royce Hall Acclaimed bassist replaces Geri Allen & The Timeline Band Bassist extraordinaire Christian McBride and his trio will join the Ravi Coltrane Quartet in UCLA Live’s first jazz event of 2012 Saturday Feb. 11 at 8 p.m. in Royce Hall. The Christian McBride Trio replaces Geri Allen & The Timeline band after unforeseen scheduling complications required the pianist and her group to cancel their previously scheduled appearance. Ticket holders may request a refund at point of purchase. More details at www.uclalive.org . McBride’s trio will close out this co-headlining event with the Ravi Coltrane Quartet. McBride is a highly sought-after performer, composer, arranger and educator, who has been omnipresent in modern music for two decades. As a sideman in the jazz world alone, he's worked with the best of the very best— Freddie Hubbard, Sonny Rollins, J.J. Johnson, Ray Brown, Milt Jackson, McCoy Tyner, Roy Haynes, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock and Pat Metheny. In the R&B world, he's not only played with, but also arranged for Isaac Hayes, Chaka Khan, Natalie Cole, Lalah Hathaway, and the one-and-only “Godfather of Soul” James Brown. In the pop/rock world, he's extensively collaborated with Sting, Carly Simon, Don Henley, and Bruce Hornsby. In the hip-hop/neo-soul world, he's collaborated with the Roots, D'Angelo, and Queen Latifah. In 2011 McBride released two critically acclaimed albums, Grammy-nominated The Good Feeling , with his big band and Conversations With Christian , which features 13 duets with fellow jazz luminaries George Duke, Angelique Kidjo, Chick Corea, Eddie Palmieri, Regina Carter, Russell Malone and more. Performing with McBride at UCLA Live are Christian Sands on piano and Ulysses Owens on drums. Ravi Coltrane, second son of John and Alice Coltrane has made his own indelible stamp on jazz. Since 1991, He has diligently forged a prominent career as a live performer, recording artist and producer. In December 2011, Coltrane hit the studio to produce his first album for Blue Note Records. His UCLA Live performance will feature the Los Angeles debut of material from this upcoming album, set for release later this year. Performing with Coltrane are Robert Hurst on bass, David Virelles on piano and Karriem Riggins on drums. Coltrane’s credits include recording on more than 40 recordings as a sideman. In 1997, he recorded his first album as a leader, Moving Pictures . In 2004, he produced his mother's return to recording after a 26-year hiatus with Translinear Light , which featured an all-star ensemble of Alice, Ravi, his brother Oran, Charlie Haden, Jack DeJohnette, James Genus and Jeff Watts. February 2005 saw the release of Ravi's fourth album, In Flux which was voted the No. 3 in The New York Times' prestigious 2005 year-end top albums list.

  • Trumpet Star Roy Hargrove Dies at 49 Iscovered by Wynton Marsalis While Dstill in His Teens, Roy Hargrove Bridged the Gaps Between Hard Bop, R&B and Hip-Hop
    Volume 46 • Issue 11 DeCember 2018 Journal of the New Jersey Jazz Society Dedicated to the performance, promotion and preservation of jazz. Trumpet Star Roy Hargrove Dies at 49 iscovered by Wynton Marsalis while Dstill in his teens, Roy Hargrove bridged the gaps between hard bop, R&B and hip-hop. He earned Grammys for Best Jazz Instrumental Album in 2003 for Directions in Music: Live at Massey Hall, featuring Herbie Hancock and Michael Brecker, and for Best Latin Jazz Performance in 1997 for Habana, a contemporary Afro-Cuban jazz project recorded in Havana with a melting pot band that included Chucho Valdes. He also struggled with substance abuse, pleading guilty to cocaine possession in Manhattan Criminal Court in 2014. But friends say he’d made positive strides since then. “Whatever it was for a lot of years, it was radically, drastically curtailed over the last year or two,” said his longtime man ager, Larry Clothier. “He was playing great; he really had himself back together. This last run we did in Europe, it was as good as I heard him play in the last 10 years.” He died of cardiac arrest at Mt. Sinai Hospital in New York City on Nov. 2 after being admitted for reasons related to kidney disease, just a day before he was sched uled to open the TD Bank James Moody Jazz Festival at Bethany Baptist Church in Newark. Trumpeter Jon Faddis performed at the Bethany Vespers in his place. Sanford Josephson’s obituary is on page 8.

With that, I'll turn it over to you. 0:00:05 WM: Alright, I wanna welcome y'all to our second Skain's Domain where we discuss issues, significant and trivial, with the same type of feeling. We're gonna talk tonight of something called "Jazz Stories". I grew up... My father's a jazz musician and I would always notice, the mysterious thing about them was how they would listen to recordings and know who was playing by their sound. And they would start talking about, "Oh man, that must be Frog." "No man, that's not Frog, that's Jug." And everybody always had a hip nickname and they would start questioning who was who, and then when the disk jockey would come on and say, "That was Gene Ammons." "I knew that was Jug." But I also noticed that they used stories to teach you lessons. There were always stories about fantastic musicians, things that they did, occurrences. They taught you history, they taught you how to feel about life. 0:00:51 WM: And later when I was older, we would have fantastic hangs at the North Sea Jazz Festival, the Montreal Jazz Festival, Vienne Jazz Festival. All the musicians of all the generations would be together and we could sit up and listen to musicians tell stories. I'll never forget one night when I was 18, I was with Art Blakey on a tour of Europe, and all of the greatest drummers in the world were there playing some type of festival.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CAP UCLA presents DeJohnette/Coltrane/Garrison December 7 at Royce Hall "Drummer and jazz legend Jack DeJohnette pairs up with saxophonist Ravi Coltrane and bassist (and electronics whiz) Matthew Garrison, to spellbinding and haunting results." —Pitchfork UCLA’s Center for the Art of Performance (CAP UCLA) presents Jack DeJohnette, Ravi Coltrane and Matthew Garrison on Saturday, Dec 7 at 8 p.m. at Royce Hall. Tickets starting at $28 are available now at cap.ucla.edu, 310-825-2101 and the Royce Hall box office. Representing the prestigious lineage of today’s great jazz families, DeJohnette/Coltrane/Garrison explore open improvisation as well as their own compositions. A NEA Jazz Master and Grammy Award-winner, Jack DeJohnette makes his return to the CAP UCLA family and Royce Hall where he previously performed as part of a jazz trio in 2013 with Keith Jarrett and Gary Peacock. DeJohnette/Coltrane/Garrison went through a rebirth in 2016 and have been touring ever since. They first performed the music of the late John Coltrane, Ravi’s father at The Brooklyn Museum. Named after the master sitarist Ravi Shankar, Coltrane is a Grammy nominated saxophonist who has released six albums to date. Matthew Garrison, son of the late Jimmy Garrison who was John Coltrane’s bassist, became a talented bass guitarist in part thanks to his godfather Jack DeJohnette. Garrison has collaborated with several jazz musicians including CAP Alums John Scofield and Pat Metheny. In 1998 Garrison founded GarrisonJazz Productions where he produces, promotes, and markets his music as well as providing music education.
