Er gilt als einer der besten Jazzgeiger in der Geschichte des Jazz. Paul Palmer - ein englischer Journalist, Drehbuchschreiber und Dokumentarfilmer – traf 1996 den Geiger zu einem Gespräch. Das Interview mit Grappelli in der Rue de Dunkerque 87 in Paris, seiner letzten Wohnung, war die Basis für die DVD. DVD-Cover 1 Paul Palmer & Stéphane Grappelli 1996 Filminhalt: Die DVD beginnt mit der Swing-Nummer „Night and Day“ mit Stéphane Grappelli (Violine), Martin Taylor (Gitarre), Louis Stewart (Gitarre) und Jack Sewing (Bass). Vermutlich stammt die Aufnahme aus dem Grand Opera House 1986 in Belfast. 2 Martin Taylor, Stéphane Grappelli, Jack Sewing, Louis Stewart 1986 Belfast Aus den Zeitperioden 1920 – 1990 laufen dann Fotos ab, die den musikalischen Werdegang des Geigers und seine Kooperation mit vielen Musikgrößen beschreibt. Grappelli wurde im Hôpital Lariboisière (damals Armenhospital) 1908 in Paris als Sohn eines italienischen Einwanderers und einer Französin geboren und auf den Namen Stefano getauft. Er verlor seine Mutter im Alter von vier Jahren. Da sein Vater 1914 zur italienischen Armee eingezogen wurde, musste sich sein Vater überlegen, wo er seinen sechsjährigen Jungen unterbringen konnte. Stefano fand zunächst Unterschlupf bei einer Tanzpädagogin, die Kinder unterrichtete.

During this period, jazz was presented in a variety of ways in different venues, on four of which I focus: New Orleans-style jazz commonly performed for the same audiences in Rhythm Clubs and in concert halls (as shown by George Webb’s Dixielanders at the Red Barn public house and the King’s Hall); clubs hosting different styles of jazz on different nights of the week that brought in different audiences (such as the 100 Club on Oxford Street); clubs with a fixed stylistic ideology that changed venue, taking a regular fan base and musicians to different locations (such as Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club); and jazz in theatres (such as the Little Theatre Club and Mike West- brook’s compositions for performance in the Mermaid Theatre).

This album was “Gerry Mulligan & Astor Piazzolla”. But it was through “Song for Strayhorn” (Carnegie Hall concert CTI album) I fell in love with the music of Gerry Mulligan. My impressions were: “How great this man is to be able to compose so nicely!, to improvise so marvellously! and to give us such feelings!” Step by step my interest for the music increased I bought regularly his albums and I became crazy from the Concert Jazz Band LPs. Then I appreciated the pianoless Quartets with Bob Brookmeyer (The Pleyel Concerts, which are easily available in France) and with Chet Baker. Just married with Danielle, I spent some days of our honey moon at Antwerp (Belgium) and I had the chance to see the Gerry Mulligan Orchestra in concert. After the concert my wife said: “During some songs I had lost you, you were with the music of Gerry Mulligan!!!” During these 30 years of travel in the music of Jeru, I bought many bootleg albums. One was very important, because it gave me a new direction in my passion: the discographical part. This was the album “Gerry Mulligan – Vol. 2, Live in Stockholm, May 1957”.

  • The Duality of the Composer-Performer
    The Duality of the Composer-Performer by Marek Pasieczny Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Arts Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences Supervisors: Prof. Stephen Goss ©Marek Pasieczny 2015 The duality of the composer-performer A portfolio of original compositions, with a supplementary dissertation ‘Interviews Project: Thirteen Composers on Writing for the Guitar’. Abstract The main focus of this submission is the composition portfolio which consists of four pieces, each composed several times over for different combinations of instruments. The purpose of this PhD composition portfolio is threefold. Firstly, it is to contribute to the expansion of the classical guitar repertoire. Secondly, it is to defy the limits imposed by the technical facilities of the physical instrument and bring novelty to its playability. Third and most importantly, it is to overcome the challenges of being a guitarist-composer. Due to a high degree of familiarity with the traditional guitar repertoire, and possessing intimate knowledge of the instrument, it is often difficult for me as a guitarist-composer to depart from habitual tendencies to compose truly innovative works for the instrument. I have thus created a compositional approach whereby I separated my role as a composer from my role as a guitarist in an attempt to overcome this challenge. I called it the ‘dual-role’ approach, comprising four key strategies that I devised which involves (1) borrowing ‘New Music’ practices to defy traditionalist guitar tendencies which are often conservative and insular; (2) adapting compositional materials to different instrumentations; and expanding on (3) the guitar technique as well as; (4) the guitar’s inventory of extended techniques.

Minimum bid unless stated £8/$10, however I reserve the right to refuse bids I consider unrealistic. AUCTION CLOSES MIDNIGHT 18th FEBRUARY 2018 HOW TO BID Basically, there are two ways of bidding; first is the simple Straight Bid - you offer a fixed amount for an item and if yours is the high - est bid, you win.

For example, you bid to a maximum of $100 on an item, but the next highest bid is $20 - you will pay $22, i.e. 10% over the the next highest bid. In the event of a tie the fixed bidder, or earliest-placed bid wins. IMPORTANT! Please make clear the system of bidding you are using and currency you are bidding in (Pounds Sterling, Euros or US Dollars). If you have a maximum budget to spend, please advise with your bids. Please also double check your item numbers when bidding - I do not use titles or issue numbers on my auction spreadsheet, so if you bid on the wrong number and win it, it’s yours!
