    Trumpeter Terence Blanchard

    Biographical Description for The HistoryMakers® Video Oral History with Terence Blanchard PERSON Blanchard, Terence Alternative Names: Terence Blanchard; Life Dates: March 13, 1962- Place of Birth: New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Work: New Orleans, LA Occupations: Trumpet Player; Music Composer Biographical Note Jazz trumpeter and composer Terence Oliver Blanchard was born on March 13, 1962 in New Orleans, Louisiana to Wilhelmina and Joseph Oliver Blanchard. Blanchard began playing piano at the age of five, but switched to trumpet three years later. While in high school, he took extracurricular classes at the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts. From 1980 to 1982, Blanchard studied at Rutgers University in New Jersey and toured with the Lionel Hampton Orchestra. In 1982, Blanchard replaced trumpeter Wynton Marsalis in Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers, where he served as musical director until 1986. He also co- led a quintet with saxophonist Donald Harrison in the 1980s, recording five albums between 1984 and 1988. In 1991, Blanchard recorded and released his self-titled debut album for Columbia Records, which reached third on the Billboard Jazz Charts. He also composed musical scores for Spike Lee’s films, beginning with 1991’s Jungle Fever, and has written the score for every Spike Lee film since including Malcolm X, Clockers, Summer of Sam, 25th Hour, Inside Man, and Miracle At St. Anna’s. In 2006, he composed the score for Lee's four-hour Hurricane Katrina documentary for HBO entitled When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts. Blanchard also composed for other directors, including Leon Ichaso, Ron Shelton, Kasi Lemmons and George Lucas.

    TONE PARALLELS IN MUSIC FOR FILM: THE COMPOSITIONAL WORKS OF TERENCE BLANCHARD IN THE DIEGETIC UNIVERSE AND A NEW WORK FOR STUDIO ORCHESTRA BY BRIAN HORTON Johnathan B. Horton B.A., B.M., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2017 APPROVED: Richard DeRosa, Major Professor Eugene Corporon, Committee Member John Murphy, Committee Member and Chair of the Division of Jazz Studies Benjamin Brand, Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music John Richmond, Dean of the College of Music Victor Prybutok, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Horton, Johnathan B. Tone Parallels in Music for Film: The Compositional Works of Terence Blanchard in the Diegetic Universe and a New Work for Studio Orchestra by Brian Horton. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), August 2017, 46 pp., 1 figure, 24 musical examples, bibliography, 49 titles. This research investigates the culturally programmatic symbolism of jazz music in film. I explore this concept through critical analysis of composer Terence Blanchard's original score for Malcolm X directed by Spike Lee (1992). I view Blanchard's music as representing a non- diegetic tone parallel that musically narrates several authentic characteristics of African- American life, culture, and the human condition as depicted in Lee's film. Blanchard's score embodies a broad spectrum of musical influences that reshape Hollywood's historically limited, and often misappropiated perceptions of jazz music within African-American culture. By combining stylistic traits of jazz and classical idioms, Blanchard reinvents the sonic soundscape in which musical expression and the black experience are represented on the big screen.

    Big Chief Donald Harrison Comes to the Big Apple

    Big Chief Donald Harrison Comes To The Big Apple New Orleans Jazz Legend To Play NYC's Symphony Space by Tom Pryor April 16, 2012 Longtime Nat Geo Music readers must know by now that we are big, big fans of the HBO Original series Treme, and of the traditional musics and culture of New Orleans in general - especially NOLA's unique Mardi Gras Indian tradition. So it should be no surprise to find out that we were especially excited when we heard that saxman "Big Chief" Donald Harrison was coming to town this month - because Harrison is not only one of NOLA's most versatile and respected jazz artists; and he's not just another recurring, real-life fixture on Treme, but he's an honest-to-goodness "Big Chief" of the Congo Nation Afro- New Orleans Cultural Group - a direct link to the same tradition that brought us everything from the Wild Magnolias to the Dixie Cups. So you know it's gonna be a funky good time - and that the roots will run deep! An Evening with the Big Chief Donald Harrison is scheduled for Friday, April 27th, and New York's venerable Symphony Space, and will include a special guest performance by Grammy Nominated trumpeter Christian Scott. Here's what the official press release had to say about the event: Big Chief Donald Harrison merges the sounds of the New Orleans Jazz Fest and Big Apple Jazz with a special guest performance by Grammy Nominee Christian Scott.

    Media Contact: Barbara Hiller, Marketing Manager 301-600-2868 | [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE The Messenger Legacy Honors Jazz Great Art Blakey at the Weinberg Center FREDERICK, MD, Wednesday, January 15, 2020 — The Messenger Legacy – Art Blakey Centennial Celebration brings an all-star group of musicians to the Weinberg Center for the Arts on Friday, February 7, 2020 at 8:00 PM to play tribute to the Jazz Messengers, the big band collective led by the late Art Blakey. Tickets start at $20 and may be purchased online at WeinbergCenter.org, by calling the box office at 301- 600-2828, or in person at 20 West Patrick Street. Discounts are available for students, children, military, and seniors. Drummer Ralph Peterson Jr. has assembled an all-star group of musical talent for a tribute to the Jazz Messengers, the prolific big band collective led by his mentor, the late Art Blakey. Also the founding drummer, Blakely led the influential jazz collective from the mid-1950s until his death in 1990. This year the collective is marking the 100th anniversary of Blakey’s birth with selections from a new recording. The musicians include Peterson on percussion, saxophonists Bobby Watson and Bill Pierce, bassist Essiet Essiet, pianist Geoffrey Keezer, and trumpeter Brian Lynch. The Messenger Legacy can exist in several configurations. Musicians Phillip Harper, Robin Eubanks, Craig Handy, Donald Harrison, Johnny O’Neal, Lonnie Plaxico, Donald Brown and even the living senior Messenger Reggie Workman, are all connected to the project. Under the leadership of Blakey, the Jazz Messengers collective was a proving ground for young jazz talent, and that tradition continues today.
