  • He Song Is Audrey! One of the Brightest Emerging Stars in Jazz
    A Bio "..Wow! Audrey Shimkas, she can REALLY SING!" he song is Audrey! --Jules Broussard, S F Bay Area jazz One of the brightest emerging legend stars in jazz today. She’s a captivating performer with a singular sound and style, pioneering her own path as a uniquely placed artist. T Anyone who has ever heard Audrey sing responds to her warmth, her sensuality and her emotional expression. Audrey is a singer’s singer who takes risks. She surprises and thrills with notes that push a melody to new heights. Audrey’s choice of material is eclectic and fascinating; she improvises unique transformations inside familiar jazz tunes; introduces fresh interpretations of favorite pop tunes and melts into Brazilian rhythms as if she were inside the song itself. When Audrey interprets a song—whether it’s a ballad-story or an up-tempo romp; a blues lament or a Latin groove; a swing standard or a soul oldie--the experience is always fresh and exciting. Long before Audrey thought about being a vocal artist, she recalls that at a young age she was mesmerized by June Christy in concert. That experience remained a cameo, locked in her imagination, until music began to play a serious part of her life. A native of New York, Audrey was classically trained on piano; she played acoustic folk and electric rhythm guitar during the folk- rock generation of Dylan and the Beatles. She studied dance (ballet and jazz) and acting (ACT, Actor’s Workshop, etc.) and spent several years on stage in New York and in San Francisco.

  • OBITUARY: TERRY WILKINSON, 1931-2013 by Barry Morris ______
    OBITUARY: TERRY WILKINSON, 1931-2013 by Barry Morris ____________________________________________________ [This obituary appeared in the Sydney Morning Herald on March 30, 2013] erry Wilkinson was one of the most gifted jazz pianists Australia has produced. He was still in short pants when he joined one of Sydney's leading big bands T and, by age 16, still at school, he was playing professionally six nights a week. He went on to become a key figure in a glittering era of jazz and popular musical entertainment spanning four decades. He played in ritzy nightclubs and restaurants where jazz, the popular music of the day, was in great demand. Among the places he played were the great Sydney venues Chequers, Andres, Princes, Romanos, the Roosevelt and Sammy Lee's. He worked with many of the world's top performers - Artie Shaw, Buddy Rich, Louis Armstrong, Johnnie Ray, the Mills Brothers, Frankie Laine, Billy Daniels, June Christy, the Platters, Sammy Davis, Jr, Jack Jones, Al Martino, Eartha Kitt, Mickey Rooney and Wayne Newton. A young Terry Wilkinson at the piano: at age 16, still at school, he was playing professionally six nights a week… PHOTO © RON FALSON ARCHIVE 1 And he rubbed shoulders with colourful characters - bookies, spivs and crims galore, he recalled in an interview with John Sharpe for his book I Wanted to be a Jazz Musician (2008). In the 1940s Wilkinson was one of the first Australian jazz musicians to embrace the new bebop sound. By the 50s he was backing US pop and jazz artists at the Sydney Stadium shows promoted by entrepreneur Lee Gordon.

  • David Schildkraut “Dave” “Davey”
    1 The ALTOSAX & TENORSAX of DAVID SCHILDKRAUT “DAVE” “DAVEY” Solographer: Jan Evensmo Last update: April 2, 2020 2 Born: NYC. Jan. 7, 1925 Died: Jan. 1, 1998 Introduction: Dave Schildkraut was one of the few white altosax players who played in the Charlie Parker tradition, and he does it with bravura. It is amazing how little his brilliant playing is known even to well informed jazz collectors. This solography aims to correct this flaw. I once had the pleasure to meet Dave in his apartment in New York City. He was such a nice man, and he played “Lover Man” for me on his altosax, beautiful! We called Bill Triglia, who said that “you are in the apartment of one of the greatest jazz altosax players”. I think he had a good point. Quotes from Endgame Records CD 005: “As far as I’m concerned, the two most original saxophonists after Charlie Parker were Lee Konitz and Dave Schildkraut” – Bill Evans “Dave Schildkraut was the only saxophonist to capture the rhythmic essence of Bird” – Dizzy Gillespie “Dave Schildkraut was one of the greatest saxophonists I ever heard” – Stan Getz History: Father played clarinet and bought him his first horn. Studied clarinet and altosax at high school. Professional debut with Louis Prima 1941. Off and on with Buddy Rich combos and bands from 1947, also with Anita O’Day 1947. In addition to free-lancing around NYC., worked as floor manager for Woolworth’s 1949, office job at Decca 1952. European tour with Stan Kenton summer 1953, Pete Rugulo 1954, George Handy combo 1955, rejoined Kenton summer 1959, then led own quartet at Café Bohemia, NYC.

  • August 23–25, 2019 Our 19Th Year!
    Our 19th Year! August 23–25, 2019 –1– About the Jazz Summit Education is a primary purpose behind the Prescott Jazz Summit. We provide clinics for bands from all over Arizona, have student ensembles perform at our annual festival, and give funds to local music departments. We’ve also given scholarships to deserving students, and regularly present assemblies to schools. Our programs have reached more than 5000 students in North Central Arizona elementary schools, middle schools and high schools. Our assemblies adress the WHOLE student body in the schools where we perform. We present jazz music in an entertaining and “inclusive” form for ALL the students, not just the music students. Our programs are done at NO CHARGE to each school. We also demonstrate each instrument, so that the students get an idea of what each instrument sounds like and how it works. Our Educational Outreach program is funded through donations to “Friends of Big Band Jazz,” a 501c3 nonprofit corporation. FBBJ is the sponsoring organi- zation for the Prescott Jazz Summit and the Stan Kenton Legacy Orchestra. It has given more than $60,000 for jazz camp scholarships, funds to school music departments, funds to help musicians in need, and the Habitat for Humanity for the New Orleans Musicians Village. –2– Born in Scranton, PA, our Master of Ceremonies Pete Barbutti started accordion lessons at 11 and within a year was earning money playing at weddings. Later, Pete formed a musical-comedy-vocal quartet group called “The Millionaires,” which toured the country. Settling in Las Vegas, “The Millionaires” quickly became a Las Vegas favorite.
