  • Interview with Eric Berlin
    Jan/Feb 2015 Fanfare Magazine Feature Article by Henry Fogel Interview with Eric Berlin Fantastique ­ Premieres for Trumpet and Wind Ensemble: Evan Hause, Jeffrey Holmes, Stephen Paulus and James Stephenson AUDIO CD MSR Classics You have managed to combine a career as principal trumpet of an important American orchestra, the Albany Symphony Orchestra in New York, with solo and teaching careers. How hard is it to keep those elements in balance? Do they compete for your time and/or attention? Staying in motion is key because when I do stop, all the spinning plates fall to the floor! The immediate answer is that my life is certainly not in balance in the traditional sense, which makes more room for so many different aspects to my career. I love everything that I do, so the ultimate arbiter of that balance is time and energy. I keep going until I either run out of time or have no choice but to fall asleep. Truthfully, I never imagined myself as a university professor. My sights were set on taking one of my teachers’ jobs as principal of Boston or Philadelphia. Out of school in 1991, I spent most of that decade creating my own work in Boston hustling wedding gigs, promoting my brass quintet, and teaching young students. Taking my first professional orchestra audition for the ASO job in 1998 really marked the beginning of my real professional career. In the middle of a serious orchestral audition run in 2000–2001, a colleague in the ASO encouraged me to audition for the UMass job.

    Chapter 1 New York City Big Band Scenes Monday night is musicians’ night. With Broadway theaters dark, the weekend club dates finished, and many residencies at nightclubs running Tuesday through Sunday, on Monday nights jazz musicians gather to perform and lis- ten to the music that interests them. Though a thriving tourist industry may supply clubs with a stream of foreign and domestic visitors, on Mondays the venues are much freer of “amateur” clubgoers than later in the week. In an atmosphere of camaraderie and release from the week’s accumulated frus- trations, jazz musicians cram themselves onto tiny bandstands to play in big bands. A cool Monday evening, October 1997. A friend and I decide to take a walk around Greenwich Village to check out a few of these big bands.1 Within a radius of a few blocks, half a dozen bands are performing in a wide range of styles. Beyond the Village, more than we can possibly visit in a single night, an even more astounding variety of bands are performing in the downtown and midtown scenes. We begin our big band tour at the Village Vanguard, where the journey- man Vanguard Jazz Orchestra (formerly the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orches- tra) has appeared weekly for more than forty years. Even on Monday night the club is packed with tourists (mostly European and Japanese), and musi- cians and friends of the band congregate in the back near the bar. The leader, John Mosca, counts off a Thad Jones classic, “Big Dipper.” After an eight-bar intro played by the saxes and trombones, an extended piano solo by Jim McNeely launches the evening’s opening number.
