Added inventiveness is found on Dresser’s GLOBE UNITY: BRAZIL composition “Yeller Grace”, which blends “Yellow Rose of Texas”, “Amazing Grace” and the National Anthem into a barely recognizable yet fully engaging mix. And they show plenty of versatility, as piano and bass converse equally well within the sweeping, legato passages of “For My Mother” or the jarring, playful bounces of “Big Mama”.

  • New York Stories« Elbphilharmonie Brings the Music of the Big Apple to Hamburg – from 30 March to 4 April
    PRESS RELEASE »NEW YORK STORIES« ELBPHILHARMONIE BRINGS THE MUSIC OF THE BIG APPLE TO HAMBURG – FROM 30 MARCH TO 4 APRIL Hamburg, 27 March 2017: On six evenings featuring a whole variety of big names, audiences at the Elbphilharmonie can hear different facets of the wealth of musical styles that New York City is home to. The programme ranges from John Zorn’s »Bagatelle Marathon«, contemporary pieces for string quartet with the JACK Quartet and from an evening with Michael Feinstein and the hr- Bigband, playing gems from the »Great American Songbook«, to rap with Zebra Katz, great art pop with Anohni and the ensemble yMusic, and electronic music with Tyondai Braxton. The climax of the festival will be two concerts given by the New York Philharmonic under its principal conductor Alan Gilbert with cellist Yo-Yo Ma and the soprano Christina Landshamer. In addition, one of America’s leading contemporary composers, John Adams, will be making a guest appearance. It's an unchallenged claim that New York never sleeps. And if a city never sleeps, its inhabitants obviously have more time for everything, including playing music and listening to it. And it’s true that New Yorkers set great store by music – not least because so many aspiring musicians gravitate to the city from far afield in the belief that this is the only place where they can make their fortune. How did Frank Sinatra put it in the song he made immortal, »New York, New York«? – »If I can make it there, I’ll make it anywhere«. For decades, the East Coast metropolis, consisting of the five boroughs Manhattan, the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island, was the focus of longing for countless immigrants from all over Europe.

  • Free Jazz in the Classroom: an Ecological Approach to Music Educationi
    David Borgo Free Jazz in the Classroom: An Ecological Approach to Music Educationi Abandon Knowledge About Knowledge All Ye Who Enter Here. Bruno Latourii Conventional Western educational practice hinges on the notion that knowledge— or at least knowledge worth having—is primarily conceptual and hence can be abstracted from the situations in which it is learned and used. I recently came across a helpful illustration of this general tendency while watching Monty Python reruns. The sketch involved a caricature of a British talk show called “How to Do It.” John Cleese served as the show’s host: Well, last week we showed you how to become a gynecologist. And this week on “How to Do It” we're going to show you how to play the flute, how to split an atom, how to construct a box girder bridge, how to irrigate the Sahara Desert and make vast new areas of land cultivatable, but first, here’s Jackie to tell you all how to rid the world of all known diseases. After Eric Idle solves the global health crisis in a sentence or two, John Cleese explains “how to play the flute”: “Well here we are. (Picking up a flute.) You blow there and you move your fingers up and down here.” Turning again to the camera, he concludes the show with a teaser for the next installment: Well, next week we’ll be showing you how black and white people can live together in peace and harmony, and Alan will be over in Moscow showing us how to reconcile the Russians and the Chinese.

  • The Denman Maroney Quintet
    Contact: Glenn Siegel, Ken Irwin, (413) 545-2876 www.fineartscenter.com/magictriangle THE 2013 MAGIC TRIANGLE JAZZ SERIES PRESENTS: THE DENMAN MARONEY QUINTET The Magic Triangle Jazz Series, produced by WMUA-91.1FM and the Fine Arts Center at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, concludes its 24th season on Thursday, April 25, at Bezanson Recital Hall, at 8:00pm with a performance by the Denman Maroney Quintet. Maroney will be joined by Ned Rothenberg, reeds, Dave Ballou, trumpet, Reuben Radding, bass and Michael Sarin, drums. "There are few minds as agile and inquiring as that of pianist, composer and educator Denman Maroney,” writes Mark Medwin. “Over nearly 40 years, he has managed to rethink the piano’s vocabulary, creating a readily identifiable language on the instrument. He calls his contribution ‘hyperpiano’, a method of playing inside the piano that is characterized by a dizzying and diverse pallet of sonorities that make the instrument into an orchestra. He has also developed an equally unique compositional language. Yet, there is a directness, at times almost a simplicity, in his music." The music of Denman Maroney is inspired by natural sounds and the music of John Cage, Ornette Coleman, Henry Cowell, Duke Ellington, Charles Ives, Scott Joplin, Olivier Messiaen, Thelonious Monk, Conlon Nancarrow and Karlheinz Stockhausen, among others. Maroney uses a set of extended performance techniques that involves playing the keys with one hand and the strings with the other using bows and slides of metal, plastic, rubber and wood. He also uses a system of temporal harmony based on the undertone series (the reciprocal of the overtone series) to compose and improvise in multiple tempos at once.
