Matt Belsante is a hot, young MB: One of the things that I really like about Nashville is that it has the vocalist on the rise. A well-spent childhood in Naperville, IL listening to Frank perception of just a country music town, but there's a complete variety of genres Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald put Matt's feet on the right path to a solid career as of music in the city. There's a lot of songwriting going on here, so that's another a jazz singer. Surprisingly, though, his first instrument was not his voice but the really neat thing about Nashville. I feel like songwriting is dying as an art on its saxophone, which he played in the school band. That was where he discovered own and in Nashville, it still lives on very successfully. There are a lot of people who he had a talent for singing. During his senior year in high school, Matt wowed just write in Nashville still and I think that's pretty rare compared to other cities. everyone by winning the prestigious Louis Armstrong Jazz Award in both the LK: What about writing yourself? vocal and instrumental categories. Matt says winning the awards reaffirmed his love for jazz. MB: I have dabbled in songwriting and one of my originals was rearranged for my last record, Blame it on My Youth.

When I went LK: You're on Twitter and you frequently post tweets. How do you feel about the to Vanderbilt, I kept singing by joining the big band there.

Here Blue Train (Blue Note) are a few of his favorite jazz albums that clearly have helped shape his own I had to include one of my favorite tenor sax players. singing style. I started with jazz by playing the saxophone. I played in jazz bands for seven years and didn't start singing Frank Sinatra jazz 'til the end of that run. I love the tenor sax and Live at the Sands (Warner Bros) Coltrane may be the best. All of his albums are great, but this was the first one of his that I ever got, so it's I used to listen to this album with my dad and my a little special to me in that regard. Great record from grandfather when I was a kid. It was one of my first a jazz giant. exposures to Sinatra and to the genre. I've definitely been influenced by Sinatra, partly because he sings all of the standards, and partly because he's just Sonny Rollins, Sonny Stitt, and Dizzy Gillespie fantastic. It's hard to think of a chart that Sinatra Sonny Side Up (Verve) hasn't recorded. This album specifically shows how This record is just fun. It has one of my all-time great he was live. The Count Basie Band is second favorite versions of On the Sunny Side of the Street to none and they really swing as Sinatra's band on featuring Dizzy singing. Sonny Rollins is another this record. of my favorite tenor players and this is just an awesome record featuring two other jazz greats. Ella Fitzgerald Ella Wishes you a Swingin' Christmas (Polydor) This is pretty much the only Christmas record I listen to. Most people seem to love Christmas music and this record specifically will not let you down. I actually need to upgrade to the new re-release that was issued a few years ago. I've had my copy since I was about 13 and it's just a wonderful record. Great arrangements, great instrumentation, but above all else, it's Ella. In my opinion she's the greatest vocalist of all time. Chet Baker The Best of Chet Baker Sings (Pacific Jazz) This record is Chet Baker at his best and focuses on his vocal abilities. Obviously Chet Baker was a great instrumentalist, but I love him most for his vocals. He has such an honest and passionate tone to his voice. You can just feel every emotion he's feeling when he sings. It's a wonderful record from an underrated contributor to the jazz genre. -6- -7- We want your INPUT Weekend Programs: by GLT Program Director Mike McCurdy WireTap The Toronto Star describes WireTap as "[pitting] the absurd against the plausible."

  • Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage
    Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Aaron Joseph Johnson All rights reserved ABSTRACT Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson This dissertation is a study of jazz on American radio. The dissertation's meta-subjects are mediation, classification, and patronage in the presentation of music via distribution channels capable of reaching widespread audiences. The dissertation also addresses questions of race in the representation of jazz on radio. A central claim of the dissertation is that a given direction in jazz radio programming reflects the ideological, aesthetic, and political imperatives of a given broadcasting entity. I further argue that this ideological deployment of jazz can appear as conservative or progressive programming philosophies, and that these tendencies reflect discursive struggles over the identity of jazz. The first chapter, "Jazz on Noncommercial Radio," describes in some detail the current (circa 2013) taxonomy of American jazz radio. The remaining chapters are case studies of different aspects of jazz radio in the United States. Chapter 2, "Jazz is on the Left End of the Dial," presents considerable detail to the way the music is positioned on specific noncommercial stations. Chapter 3, "Duke Ellington and Radio," uses Ellington's multifaceted radio career (1925-1953) as radio bandleader, radio celebrity, and celebrity DJ to examine the medium's shifting relationship with jazz and black American creative ambition.

  • Critical Acclaim for 'LISTENING IS an ACT of LOVE: a STORYCORPS SPECIAL' by the Rauch Brothers
    Critical Acclaim For 'LISTENING IS AN ACT OF LOVE: A STORYCORPS SPECIAL' By the Rauch Brothers "StoryCorps is one of the great inspirations of the last 10 years. a priceless, irreplaceable history of humanity. Wisely, the documentary . stresses that telling the stories is only half of this project. The other half is listening. The people who ask questions are saying, 'Your life matters. Tell me about it.' What a wonderful thing for anyone to hear." —David Hinckley, New York Daily News "In the soundproof recording studio . thousands of everyday people have talked about their hopes, fears, regrets, triumphs." Brian Stelter, The New York Times "If you are not in the mood for football, give PBS a holiday TV try. StoryCorps founder Dave Isay has oft said 'you find wisdom and poetry' in the words of everyday people. And it's true." —Adrienne Samuels Gibbs, Chicago Sun-Times "Heartbreaking, hilarious and inspiring, sometimes all at once. We're in the midst of the season that encourages us to binge-shop for meaningless junk. The perfect gift is easier to give than most of us imagine. Just ask a few questions of someone close to you and listen." —Mark Perigard, Boston Herald "Touching. poignant." —Vi-An Nguyen, Parade "A holiday-friendly, family-binding event. Just what many people crave at this time of the year." —Robert Lloyd, Los Angeles Times "'Live with courage'—PBS brings these three simple words to vivid life. StoryCorps looks for wisdom and poetry in the lives of regular people; this animated film brings together a tapestry of natural storytellers doing what they do best.

  • Instructor's Guide
    The Fight for Free Speech Ten Cases That Define Our First Amendment Freedoms BY IAN ROSENBERG Instructor’s Guide A user’s guide to understanding contemporary free speech issues in the United States Americans today are confronted by a barrage of questions relating to their free speech freedoms. What are libel laws, and do they need to be changed to stop the press from lying? Does Colin Kaepernick have the right to take a knee? Can Saturday Night Live be punished for parody? While citizens are grappling with these questions, they generally have nowhere to turn to learn about the extent of their First Amendment rights. The Fight for Free Speech answers this call with an accessible, engaging user’s guide to free speech. Media lawyer Ian Rosenberg distills the spectrum of free speech law down to ten critical issues. Each chapter in this book focuses on a contemporary free speech question—from student walkouts for gun safety to Samantha Bee’s expletives, from Nazis marching in Charlottesville to the muting of adult film star Stormy Daniels— and then identifies, unpacks, and explains the key Supreme Court case that provides the answers. Together these fascinating stories create a practical framework for understanding where our free speech protections originated and how they can develop in the future. As people on all sides of the political spectrum are demanding their right to speak and be heard, The Fight for Free Speech is a handbook for combating authoritarianism, protecting our democracy, and bringing an understanding of free speech law to all. 312 pages | Cloth | 9781479801565 • • • Law | Politics | Current Events Ian Rosenberg has over twenty years of experience as a media lawyer, and has worked as legal counsel for ABC News since 2003.
