Eddie Palmieri and the Brian Lynch Jazz Quartet Two Giants of Latin Jazz Perform at Montalvo on February 12 For Immediate Release Contact: Diane Maxwell, (408) 961‐5841 February 2, 2012 [email protected] Eddie Palmieri and the Brian Lynch Jazz Quartet Two giants of Latin Jazz perform at Montalvo on February 12 “Lynch and Palmieri are arguably each the most important Latin Jazz voices of their respective generations” ALL MUSIC GUIDE SARATOGA, Calif. – Legendary Latin jazz band leader and pianist Eddie Palmieri and the renowned Brian Lynch Jazz Quartet will bring their infectious rhythms to the stage of the Montalvo Carriage House Theatre this month as part of Montalvo’s Piano Masters performance series. Tickets for the show, taking place on Sunday, February 12 at 7:30 p.m., are on sale now. Above: Eddie Palmieri, Below: Brian Lynch Pianist and bandleader Eddie Palmieri has been hailed by the Boston Globe as “the most consistently innovative artist in Afro‐Cuban music in the United States.” He has recorded 36 albums over the course of his more than 50‐year‐long career, and garnered numerous awards and accolades, including nine Grammies, multiple lifetime achievement awards, prestigious fellowships, an honorary doctorate from Berklee College of Music, and has been inducted into both the Bronx and Chicago Walks of Fame. Palmieri is steeped in the Latin orchestral tradition and a fierce advocate for preserving the standards and legacy of the genre. At the same time, his wildly creative arrangements and bold, personal interpretive style have made him a trailblazer and trendsetter. The result is a “music so vital and joyous...you want it to go on forever" (Time Out London). Page 1 of 3 Brian Lynch, also a celebrated bandleader, recording artist, and Grammy‐winning musician, has released 19 critically acclaimed albums over the course of his career. Lynch is a graduate of two of the jazz world’s most distinguished academies, the Horace Silver Quintet, and Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers, and collaborated with jazz artists such as Benny Golson, Toshiko Akiyoshi, and Charles McPherson; Latin music icons Hector LaVoe and Lila Downs; and pop luminaries such as Prince. In recent years, Lynch has made teaching a major focus of his creative endeavor. He has been a faculty member at New York University and the Prince Claus Conservatory in the Netherlands, and has led workshops at such preeminent universities as Harvard, Dartmouth, and Columbia. Currently, he is an Assistant Professor of Jazz Trumpet at the Frost School Of Music at the University Of Miami. Lynch and Palmieri have forged a close creative and personal relationship that spans more than two decades. The two met in 1987, when Lynch joined Palmieri’s jazz orchestra as a trumpet player. As the years went by, Lynch came to collaborate with Palmieri as an arranger, co‐ composer, and musical director. In 2006, the two released a joint album, Simpático, which went on to win the 2007 Grammy Award for Best Latin Jazz Album. Their synchronistic relationship continues to the present day: every year, they tour extensively in Japan and all over the United States as the Eddie Palmieri/Brian Lynch Jazz Quartet. Lynch credits Palmieri as being one of his most important sources of inspiration. “Eddie is one of my greatest mentors and a most beloved figure in my life,” said Lynch. “Over the nearly twenty years I’ve had the blessing of playing and collaborating with Eddie, we’ve forged a unique and fruitful bond on the bandstand, in the recording studio, and as close friends.” Their performance together at Montalvo will be a celebration of their productive collaboration, and will feature examples of their own original compositions. Eddie Palmieri and the Brian Lynch Jazz Quartet What: Eddie Palmieri and the Brian Lynch Jazz Quartet When: Sunday, February 12, at 7:30 pm Where: Montalvo Arts Center Admission: General: $50 / $45 | Members: $45 / $40.

  • Andy Gonzalez Entre Colegas Download Album Bassist Andy González, Who Brought Bounce to Latin Dance and Jazz, Dies at 69
    andy gonzalez entre colegas download album Bassist Andy González, Who Brought Bounce To Latin Dance And Jazz, Dies At 69. Andy González, a New York bassist who both explored and bridged the worlds of Latin music and jazz, has died. The 69-year-old musician died in New York on Thursday night, from complications of a pre-existing illness, according to family members. Born and bred in the Bronx, Andy González epitomized the fiercely independent Nuyorican attitude through his music — with one foot in Puerto Rican tradition and the other in the cutting-edge jazz of his native New York. González's career stretched back decades, and included gigs or recordings with a who's-who of Latin dance music, including Tito Puente, Eddie Palmieri and Ray Barretto. He also played with trumpeter and Afro-Cuban jazz pioneer Dizzy Gillespie while in his twenties, as he explored the rich history of Afro-Caribbean music through books and records. In the mid-1970s, he and his brother, the trumpet and conga player Jerry González, hosted jam sessions — in the basement of their parents' home in the Bronx — that explored the folkloric roots of the then-popular salsa movement. The result was an influential album, Concepts In Unity, recorded by the participants of those sessions, who called themselves Grupo Folklórico y Experimental Nuevayorquino. Toward the end of that decade, the González brothers were part of another fiery collective known as The Fort Apache Band, which performed sporadically and went on to release two acclaimed albums in the '80s — and continued to release music through the following decades — emphasizing the complex harmonies of jazz with Afro-Caribbean underpinnings.

Heller, PhD Hybridity and Identity in the Pan-American Jazz Piano Tradition William D. Scott, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2019 The term Latin jazz has often been employed by record labels, critics, and musicians alike to denote idioms ranging from Afro-Cuban music, to Brazilian samba and bossa nova, and more broadly to Latin American fusions with jazz. While many of these genres have coexisted under the Latin jazz heading in one manifestation or another, Panamanian pianist Danilo Pérez uses the expression “Pan-American jazz” to account for both the Afro-Cuban jazz tradition and non-Cuban Latin American fusions with jazz. Throughout this dissertation, I unpack the notion of Pan-American jazz from a variety of theoretical perspectives including Latinx identity discourse, transcription and musical analysis, and hybridity theory.

"I think that to be a jazz musician now means drawing on a wider variety of things than 30 or 40 years ago. Not to play a little bit of this or a little bit of that, but to blend everything together into something that has integrity and sounds good. Not to sound like a pastiche or shifting styles; but like someone with a lot of range and understanding."

  • Press Release
    Johannes Wallmann releases new quintet album Day and Night on Shifting Paradigm Records For his eighth album as leader, the pianist-composer reconnects with an intergenerational cast of New York heavyweights Pianist-composer Johannes Wallmann is releasing a new quintet album, Day and Night, on Shifting Paradigm Records on November 2, 2018. Grammy-award winning trumpeter Brian Lynch, saxophonist Dayna Stephens, bassist Matt Pavolka, and drummer Colin Stranahan join Wallmann for an album of original compositions and re-imagined jazz standards. With this quintet, Wallmann revisits musical connections established over more than two decades in the jazz world. Wallmann has been living in Madison, Wisconsin since 2012, when he joined the faculty of the University of Wisconsin’s Mead Witter School of Music as the inaugural holder of the Peterson Chair in Jazz Studies to spearhead the development of a jazz program. Prior to that, he spent five years teaching at a California State University campus near Oakland. But Wallmann’s longest-lasting home, and the location of his formative professional years was New York City, where the German-born, Canadian-raised pianist spent his twenties and early thirties making his living playing jazz in bars, clubs, and the occasional concert hall. Having first met as students at Berklee College of Music, veteran bassist Matt Pavolka was a long-term musical partner on many of Wallmann’s gigs in the 1990s and early aughts. Through his teaching positions, Wallmann got to know Brian Lynch as a colleague at NYU, and Colin Stranahan as a student at the New School. Wallmann’s musical collaboration with Dayna Stephens first began in California’s Bay Area, the saxophonist’s former home, and Stephens has since guest-starred on two previous Wallmann albums, The Town Musicians (2015) and Love Wins (2018).

Contact: [email protected] CHAPTER Srx Improvisation in Latin Dance Music: History and Style PETER MANUEL Latin dance music constitutes one of the most dynamic and sophisticated urban popular music traditions in the Americas. Improvisation plays an important role in this set of genres, and its styles are sufficiently distinctive, complex, and internally significant as to merit book-length treatment along the lines of Paul Berliner's volume Thinking in Jazz (1994 ). To date, however, the subject of Latin improvisation has received only marginal and cursory analytical treat­ ment, primarily in recent pedagogical guidebooks and videos. 1 While a single chijpter such as this can hardly do justice to the subject, an attempt will be made here to sketch some aspects of the historical development of Latin im­ provisational styles, to outline the sorts of improvisation occurring in main­ stream contemporary Latin music, and to take a more focused look at improvi­ sational styles of one representative instrument, the piano. An ultimate and only partially realized goal in this study is to hypothesize a unified, coherent aesthetic of Latin improvisation in general.
