  • Philip Catherine
    PHILIP CATHERINE Sinds de jaren '60 is Philip Catherine één van de vooraanstaande figuren van de Europese jazzscène. Zijn samenwerking met jazzgrootheden zoals Chet Baker, Tom Harrell, NHOP, Stéphane Grappelli, Larry Coryell, Dexter Gordon, Charles Mingus, zijn unieke stijl en klankkleur alsook zijn ongebreidelde inzet voor de muziek zijn van een niet te miskennen invloed geweest op de ontwikkeling van de Europese jazz. Hij is net 18 jaar oud wanneer hij met het Lou Bennett trio op tournee door Europa trekt. In 1971 wordt hij door Jean-Luc Ponty gevraagd om mee te spelen in diens kwintet. Dat jaar verschijnt ook de eerste plaat onder zijn naam ‘Stream ’, gevolgd door de albums " September Man " en " Guitars " in 1974-75. Jazzliefhebbers uit de hele wereld ontdekken een nieuwe ster aan het jazzfirmament: een jonge, virtuoze gitarist die ook een begenadigd componist blijkt te zijn. Thema’s als ‘Homecomings’ en ‘Nairam’ zijn ondertussen beroemd geworden. Philip Catherine heeft meer dan 20 platen uitgebracht onder zijn naam en tevens talrijke opnames met artiesten van alle horizonten, van Chet Baker via Dexter Gordon tot de cultband Focus. De plaat ‘ Transparence ’ uit ’86 werd een bestseller en is tegelijk ook één van Philip’s uitverkoren opnames. Daarop volgen begin jaren ’90 twee schitterende cd’s met trompettist Tom Harrell : Moods Vol.I en II . In ’97 tekent Philip Catherine bij het jazzlabel Dreyfus Records. Zijn eerste cd voor dit platenlabel, “ Philip Catherine- Live ” is meteen ook het eerste live-album uit zijn discografie. De jazzkritiek is uiterst enthusiast. De Cd krijgt o.m. een 4 ½ ster-vermelding in “Down Beat” in de V.S.

Estuve meditando durante un tiempo hasta que la iluminación llego a mi mente y recordé cuales fueron mis orígenes en la música. Hace ya mucho tiempo, cuando era un adolescente, entre en el mundo del rock de la mano de lo que en aquella época se llamaba “rock sinfónico”. Mi fascinación por este género era total y el instrumento que me imaginaba tocando eran los teclados, con el tiempo comprendí que no tenía capacidad para asumir semejante tarea. Hablar de sintetizadores, órganos, mellotrones, etc, para mí sería un placer pero entiendo que para la mayoría de los mortales podría suponer un gran dolor de cabeza. Por todo ello creo que mi colaboración puede versar sobre los teclistas del rock. RICK WAKEMAN No pretendo contar exhaustivamente la obra y milagros de este genio, eso sería muy largo y tedioso, simplemente daré unas pinceladas sobre su trayectoria basándome en mi experiencia. Rick Wakeman nació en 1,949 en Perivale, Londres, y como era de esperar estudio diversos instrumentos entre ellos el piano, pero el bueno de Rick era un inconformista y no se regía por los cánones clásicos por lo cual fue expulsado del Royal College Music.

  • 'Helikon' Was Also a Favourite of Zbyszek Seifert's. Both His Quartet
    man of the light. THE LIFE AND WORK OF ZBIGNIEW SEIFERT The ‘Helikon’ was also a favourite of Zbyszek Seifert’s. Both his quartet and (later) Stańko’s quintet held their rehearsals there, and that’s where he played his first jazz concerts. It was in this club that he met jazz musicians and fans. As its musicians became more and more popular, the Jazz-Club found it could not seat all the audience and so concerts began to be held in other places. Nonetheless, the first steps on the ensemble’s career path were inextricably linked with that magical place. Jazz-Club “Helikon”. From left: barmaid, NN, Jan Jarczyk, Zbigniew Seifert, Jan Gonciarczyk, Adam Matyszkowicz. Archive of Małgorzata Seifert Jazz-Club “Helikon” membership card. Archive of Małgorzata Seifert 36 The music studies and Jazz Ensembles The Career of the Zbigniew Seifert Quartet The Quartet’s official debut took place in November, 1965, during the th14 Cracow Jazz Festival, the so-called Cracow All Souls Jazz Festival at Krzysztofory, where the jam sessions were held. Andrzej Jaroszewski enthusiastically hailed their performance as foreshadowing the coming of a new generation of jazz musicians, the debut of a modern jazz band. In a brochure entitled “Cracow Jazz Festival – 14th Edition”, Krzysztof Sadowski wrote: On Friday evening the second debutant was Zbigniew Seifert, an alto sax player influenced by John Coltrane and Zbigniew Namysłowski. From the latter, he took the pure intonation and confident presentation of frequently complicated melodic phrases. Especially in the theme of McCoy Tyner’s “Three Flowers” the whole ensemble gave us a sample of solid modern jazz.

Sa collaboration avec des grands artistes comme Charles Mingus, Chet Baker, Stéphane Grappelli, Dexter Gordon, Larry Coryell, Tom Harrell, NHOP, pour n'en nommer que quelques-uns, son style et sonorité uniques, son engagement musical, ont été importants et d'une influence incontestable sur le jazz contemporain européen. Né à Londres en 1942 d'une mère anglaise et d’un père belge, dans une famille de musiciens (son grand-père était premier violon du London Symphony Orchestra), Philip Catherine a pu développer son oreille musicale déjà très tôt. A quatorze ans, il entend la guitare de Brassens et découvre aussi Django Reinhardt : c'est le coup de foudre. Il se met à écouter tous les grands musiciens de jazz de l'époque, les rencontre et puis très vite accompagne ceux qui passent par Bruxelles, où sa famille s’est installée. A 18 ans, il tourne déjà en Europe avec le trio de Lou Bennett. En même temps, il entreprend des études de Sciences Economiques à l'Université de Louvain. Après son service militaire en 1971, Jean- Luc Ponty l'engage dans son quintet. En 1971 il enregistre un premier album sous son propre nom : "Streams", suivi en 1974-75 par "September Man" et "Guitars".

  • Philip Catherine / Guitar Martin Wind / Bass
    Philip Catherine / guitar Martin Wind / bass Der belgische Gitarrist Philip Catherine ist eine europäische Jazzlegende. Schon mit 17 ist der heute 71-jährige einst Profi geworden, er tourte sehr bald mit Lou Bennett, Dexter Gordon, Jean-Luc Ponty, weiter ging es mit Chet Baker (mit dem er sechs Alben einspielte), Tom Harrell und vielen, vielen anderen Größen. Charles Mingusverpasste ihm den Spitznamen „Young Django“ und die Süddeutsche Zeitung schrieb erst kürzlich über ihn, dass er „Sachen spielt, die man derzeit von keinem anderen Gitarristen auf der Welt hören kann“. Nicht zuletzt wegen seines unbestechlichen Gespürs für Zeit, das auch die atemberaubendsten Tempo-Passagen relaxt und locker wirken lässt. Ansonsten sind es aber nicht einmal die Technik und Geschwindigkeit, die den Saitenzauberer herausheben, sondern vielmehr der unverwechselbare akustische Gitarrenton und ein Improvisationsstil, bei dem nicht Gitarristen, sondern die großen Bläser des Jazz Pate standen. Als Martin Wind in den Achtzigern in seiner Heimatstadt Flensburg Kontrabass lernte, schenkte ihm sein Lehrer eines Tages eine Duo-Platte von Philip Catherine: „The Viking“ aus dem Jahre 1983 mit dem Bassisten Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen. „Das war die erste Jazz-Platte, die ich bewusst wahrgenommen habe“, erinnert sich Wind heute. Sie brachte ihn auf den Weg zum Berufsmusiker und es gibt sicher schlechtere Vorbilder als Catherine, der schon damals als Aushängeschild des europäischen Jazz galt und dem die Süddeutsche Zeitung noch vor kurzem attestierte, dass er „Sachen spielt, die man derzeit von keinem anderen Gitarristen auf der Welt hören kann.“ Davon inspiriert machte auch Martin Wind seinen Weg. Über die Stationen Musikhochschule Köln und Bundesjazzorchester kam er mit einem Stipendium an die New York University.

  • Philip Catherine, Selected Works 1974-1982 5CD Box Set
    Philip Catherine, Selected Works 1974-1982 5CD Box Set Written by Andrew Read| Celebrating his 75th Birthday, Warner Music France has released a limited edition 5CD box set of music by guitarist Philip Catherine. Titled “Philip Catherine Selected Works 1974-1982”. Together with Toot’s Thielemans, Philip Catherine can be seen as one of Belgium’s greatest jazz exports. Catherine rose to prominence in 1971. In that same year Jean-Luc Ponty asked him to join his quintet. Since then he has been on the forefront of the European jazz scene, having toured and recorded with jazz greats including Chet Baker, NHOP, Stéphane Grappelli, Charles Mingus, Dexter Gordon, Larry Coryell and Tom Harrell. As one of the most influential artists on the European jazz scene, Philip Catherine started playing professionally when he was only 17, and is renowned across the globe for his acoustic guitar sound and improvisational style, uniquely influenced by some of the greatest horn players in jazz history. Featuring 4 classic albums, this set includes “September Man” (1974), “Guitars” (1975), “Babel” (1980) and “End of August” (1982). The box set also includes the unreleased album “Solo Bremen 1979 & 1982”. The albums are packaged in vinyl replica sleeves with their original artwork, except Solo Bremen, which is illustrated with a painting by Gilles Fiszman. The first disc in the set is “September Man” released in 1974. This is the album that put Catherine on the map, not only as an innovative guitarist but also as a composer and leader in his own right. This album is perhaps the most adventurous album in the set and reflects the times in which the album was originally released.

  • Masterclass Philip Catherine 2012 », Avant Le 1Ier Septembre 2012
    Association des Ecoles de Musique PHILIP CATHERINE du Grand - Duché de Luxembourg Ecoles de Musique de Bascharage, Differdange, Dudelange, Depuis les années '60 Philip Catherine a été une figure Echternach, Grevenmacher, Pétange, Rédange et Wiltz importante de la scène du jazz européen. Sa collaboration avec des grands artistes comme Charles Mingus, Chet Baker, Stéphane Grappelli, Dexter Gordon, Larry Coryell, Tom Harrell, NHOP, pour n'en nommer que quelques-uns, son style et sonorité uniques, son engagement musical, ont été importants et d'une influence incontestable sur le jazz contemporain européen. Né à Londres en 1942 d'une mère anglaise et d’un père belge, dans une famille de musiciens (son grand-père était premier violon du London Symphony Orchestra), Philip Catherine a pu développer son oreille musicale déjà très tôt. A quatorze ans, il entend la guitare de Brassens et découvre aussi Django Reinhardt : c'est le coup de fou- dre. Il se met à écouter tous les grands musiciens de jazz de l'époque, les rencontre et puis très vite accompagne ceux qui passent par Bruxelles, où sa famille s’est installée. A 18 ans, il tourne déjà en Europe avec le trio de Lou Bennett. En même temps, il entreprend des études de Sciences Economiques à l'Université de Louvain. Après son service militaire en 1971, Jean-Luc Ponty l'engage dans son quintet. En 1971 il enregistre un premier album sous son propre nom : "Streams", suivi en 1974-75 par "September Man" et "Guitars". Les amateurs de jazz à Masterclass travers le monde découvrent non seulement un guitariste virtuose mais aussi un compositeur talentueux.
