  • Press Release
    Press Release The Ted Lewis Orchestra brings back the music of the “High-Hatted Tragedian of Song” with Joseph Rubin and his entertainers in The Rhythm Rhapsody Revue! Relive Ted Lewis’ famous hits, “When My Baby Smiles at Me,” “The St. Louis Blues,” “ The Sunny Side of the Street,” “The Tiger Rag,” “Medicine Man for the Blues,” and of course, “Me and My Shadow,” all in their original arrangements! With his trademark battered old top hat and his immortal catchphrase "Is Everybody Happy?" Ted Lewis captured the hearts of audiences for five decades. Unrivaled in popularity in the 1920s, 30s and 40s, Lewis drew standing room only houses wherever he played, breaking attendance records and drawing more people than Glenn Miller and Tommy Dorsey. Joseph Rubin, Director of the Ted Lewis Orchestra says, “We are very excited to bring the Ted Lewis Orchestra back on the road after a hiatus of 40 years!” Mr. Rubin notes that The Rhythm Rhapsody Revue is unique in big band entertainment, “we have not just a swinging band, but also a cast of extraordinary dancers, singers and entertainers, exactly like Ted had at the height of his popularity.” A consummate showman, Ted Lewis always surrounded himself with the tops in talent (Benny Goodman, Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey all got their start with Ted) and The Rhythm Rhapsody Revue continues that legacy. The Ted Lewis Orchestra deftly recreates Ted's touring stage revues, featuring a female singing trio, a dancer extraordinaire, Ted's famous shadow, a 13-piece orchestra and Joseph Rubin as Ted Lewis.

    PAUL KELLER BIOGRAPHY – ONE PAGE 125 W. Willis Rd Saline, MI 48176 734-316-2665 [email protected] Since 1989, string bassist Paul Keller has led his 15-piece big band Paul Keller Orchestra to critical and popular acclaim. The PKO’s American Music Research Foundation Big Band Boogie Woogie concert was broadcast nationally on PBS throughout 2009 and 2010. The PKO’s Jazz Student Outreach Program hosted 30 school bands and over 700 student musicians in 2010. Paul is a prolific composer. In October, 2010 the Ypsilanti Symphony Orchestra premiered Paul’s five-movement symphonic composition The Ypsilanti Orchestral Jazz Suite. This major piece, written for jazz band and full symphony orchestra, celebrates Paul’s hometown of Ypsilanti, MI. The suite was received enthusiastically and was praised by community leaders as an important work of art with historical significance. Paul's magnum opus The Michigan Jazz Suite is a collection of 15 Keller compositions inspired by people, places and icons of the great state of Michigan. Featuring the Paul Keller Ensemble with titles like Big Mac, and Soo’s Blues, The Michigan Jazz Suite won the Detroit Music Award for Best Jazz Recording of 2008. In 2007 Keller created 15 original orchestra charts for clarinetist Dave Bennett’s symphonic Pops show A Salute to Benny Goodman. This show, composed for jazz band and full symphony orchestra has been performed by over 25 major US orchestras. Keller also wrote Bennett's second orchestra Pops show Clarinet Is King, featuring 10 new original Keller arrangements of songs from Artie Shaw, Pete Fountain, and Jimmy Dorsey.

In this semi-theatrical presentation on 59th Street, one can sense the timeline of jazz history being similarly bent around corners as two of the youngest pro musicians around (fairly recent Juilliard grads) celebrate their ideological forebears: Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey, the legendary brothers who dominated much of jazz and pop in the key years of the American experience, both individually and as a team. Even with a mere six musicians (most importantly, the remarkable trumpeter Jon-Erik Kellso) and no trombone or vocalists, saxophonists Pete and Will Anderson not only guide us through the personal and musical high points of the Dorseys' careers, but establish them as gargantuan heroes of a long-departed, almost mythical era, when the ability to play an instrument better than anyone else could make you king of the whole world.

Along with his brother Tommy, the talented young musicians joined Paul Whiteman’s Orchestra and at the same time they were recording many records under the billing “The Dorsey Brothers Orchestra”. Their band continued through the early thirties until a dispute over a tempo of a song separated the brothers for decades. Jimmy found himself an instant leader of the band that became the birth of the Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra.

  • Pete Petersen S a X O P H O N I S T
    Pete Petersen S A X O P H O N I S T [email protected] www.petepetersen.com www.myspace.com/petepetersenjazz (503) 313-9398 Pete Petersen is a jazz saxophonist from the Pacific Northwest. He regularly performs at venues across the western United States and is a favorite of swing, jazz and blues enthusiasts around the region. Early life: Pete Petersen was born in Portland, Oregon. He developed a strong attachment to the Pacific Northwest while living in Portland as a young child, and also spent several years as a teenager in Boise, Idaho. It was in Boise where he first heard jazz pianist Gene Harris, playing in a local nightclub. Harris’s playing would be a major influence on Pete’s sound in later years, though he didn’t know it at the time. “I was way too young to get into the bar Gene was playing in at the time, so my parents would sit me around the corner in the restaurant section where I’d listen from around the partition,” says Petersen. “I don’t think Gene ever saw me or knew I was there at the time, but I was hooked on jazz from that moment on, and I knew I wanted to do more than just listen to jazz, I wanted to play it, to be part of it, to live it.” Education: Pete earned a Bachelor of Music degree in Jazz Studies from the University of Denver, at the same time honing his jazz chops by sitting in with local greats like Ron Miles, Stefan Karlsson, Bruno Carr, Keith Oxman, and others.

  • La Collezione Attilio Berni
    La Collezione Attilio Berni La collezione comprende circa 500 strumenti musicali, 300 fotografie d’epoca, 200 giocattoli- saxofono, 500 cataloghi musicali dalla fine dell’800 agli anni 70, 300 imboccature e un migliaio di oggetti ed accessori vari. Gli strumenti musicali, ovviamente la parte più importante della collezione, sono costituiti da strumenti tradizionali che spaziano dai sopranini al contrabbasso ed alcuni strumenti dalle dimensioni più rare, come Conn O Sax ed il baritono diritto Nixon o derivati dal saxofono come lo slide-sax, il rothofono e i sarrusofono. Comunque la quantità numericamente spesso varia a causa di frequenti acquisti e scambi con altri collezionisti. La collezione si divide principalmente in due gruppi, gli strumenti professionali e quelli da collezione anche se a volte alcuni strumenti appartengono ad entrambe le categorie. Buona parte della collezione evidenzia la vasta gamma e diversità del design e della lavorazione del saxofono. Alcuni di questi saxofoni non sono strumenti che possono essere suonati a livello professionale, vuoi per l’accordatura, qualcuno infatti è costruito ad intonazione alta (high Pitch- A=456), vuoi per i meccanismi delle chiavi che possono risultare decisamente scomodi per gli standard moderni. Poi ci sono gli strumenti rari o fuori dal comune che costituiscono la parte più interessante della collezione e che possono essere divisi in quelli con particolari modifiche ai modelli già esistenti e quelli invece creati ex novo. Tra i primi posso elencare il quartetto soprano, alto tenore baritono Holton Modello Rudy Wiedoeft, il Buffett-Powell con quattro fori di ottava, il Cmelody Martin Home Model e l’alto Buescher Academy, il clarinetto piccolo in Mib Bettoney in metallo, un tenore ed un alto Selmer “Padless” senza cuscinetti, un alto Mark6 alto discendente al La grave, l’Oscar Adler con con 8 chiavi extra ecc..
