Paul Wertico & Free the Opera PAUL WERTICO & FREE THE OPERA Music Clinic e Concerto - domenica 8 APRILE a COMO Evento da non perdere, organizzato dal Como Lake Jazz Club con la partecipazione de L'Officina della Musica di Como. PAUL WERTICO, storico batterista del Pat Metheny group per quasi un ventennio, terrà una music clinic presso L'Officina Della Musica alle ore 18:00, aperta a musicisti e ad ascoltatori. Suggerita la prenotazione ai recapiti 349.2803945 - [email protected] (contributo di partecipazione al seminario 10euro) Paul Wertico, (Chicago, 5 gennaio 1953), nel 1983 entra a far parte del Pat Metheny Group (con il quale vincerà 7Grammy Award) dove rimane fino al 2001. A febbraio del 2001 lascia il gruppo per dedicarsi alla famiglia e seguire i suoi altri interessi musicali. Negli ultimi anni Wertico ha continuato a suonare, ha creato il Paul Wertico Trio e ha collaborato con musicisti come:Larry Coryell, Kurt Elling e Jeff Berlin.Dal 2000 al 2007 è stato membro di un gruppo di rock progressivo polacco gli SBB. Il suo primo CD da leader è intitolato The Yin and the Yout. Questo album verrà acclamato dalla critica. Nel 1998 registra un Cd dal vivo con il Paul Wertico trio, intitolato Live in Warsaw con il chitarrista John Moulder e il bassista Eric Hochberg. Nel 2000 con lo stesso gruppo registra un altro album intitolato Don't Be Scared Anymore,nel 2004 Wertico incide Stereo Nucleosis. Il Pat Metheny Group è il gruppo che effettivamente porta al successo Wertico e proprio con il gruppo di Metheny infatti che Paul affina la sua tecnica e comincia a lavorare sull'uso dei piatti che diventerà poi una sua caratteristica. Nonostante provenga da generi musicali diversi Wertico entra subito in armonia con il gruppo di Pat Metheny diventando un elemento fondamentale della formazione e un punto di riferimento per i batteristi che lo sostituiranno. Alle ore 21:15, sempre presso L'Officina della Musica, concerto in trio che vede lo stesso Wertico con il pianista FABRIZIO MOCATA e il contrabbassista GIANMARCO SCAGLIA. Viene presentato il progetto FREE the OPERA, in cui l'ensemble presenta una personalissima ed originale interpretazione jazzistica di famose "arie" d'Opera che, per lo meno in Italia, possono essere considerate "canzoni popolari contemporanee del XIX secolo". Da una parte abbiamo l'autentica interpretazione delle "canzoni popolari contemporanee del XIX secolo" e dall'altro i brani che derivano direttamente dall'incontro della creatività e dell'interplay dei musicisti. Non è un caso che uno di questi brani si intitoli "Meeting of the Minds". Fabrizio Mocata è responsabile della scelta dei brani e ha contribuito alla realizzazione del progetto (e conseguente incisione del relativo CD), con sorprendente versatilità, radicato nella formazione classica unita a tutte le esperienze musicali che ha maturato in diversi stili e generi. Gianmarco Scaglia ha contribuito con il suo accompagnamento solido e mai troppo invadente e con forte senso melodico e armonico. Il grande virtuosismo batteristico, la creatività poliritmica e il sostengo sono i contributi del grande Paul Wertico, che già da tempo ha dimostrato di essere maestro di ogni situazione musicale. informazioni: [email protected] www.comolakejazzclub.it Ingresso al concerto (incluso una consumazione/drink): 20 euro per gli associati al Como Lake Jazz Club o all'Officina della Musica (22 per i non soci) E' possibile partecipare ad un aperitivo previsto alle ore 19:30 al costo di 7euro. Per chi desiderasse associarsi al Jazz Club, è prevista una sottoscrizione associativa in loco a condizioni di particolare interesse (5euro la tessera) Entrambi gli eventi si terranno presso L'Officina della Musica via Giulini 14 - Como .

    gram JAZZ PROMOTING AND NURTURING JAZZ IN CHICAGO SEPTEMBER 2020 WWW.JAZZINCHICAGO.ORG BIRD’S BEBOP BROTHER GOES HOME JOE SEGAL, JIC CO-FOUNDER, 2015 NEA JAZZ MASTER, REMEMBERED BY MUSICIANS AND MUSIC LOVERS BY COREY HALL While our current reality resembles Orson Welles’ War of the Worlds on steroids, let us escape and celebrate Joe Segal -- April 24, 1926-August 10, 2020 -- who brought jazz to Chicago for more than seven decades. Imagine… Scene: August 10, 2020. Place: Tadd’s Hot House. Charlie Parker, firm, fit, and poison-free since March 12, 1955, is sheddin’ “Just Friends” when in walks Joe. “Hey, man! It’s about time!” Bird exclaims, embracing his brother in bop. “What were you up to? Reading the list of upcoming cats?” “I was busy saving the youth,” Joe replies, while readjusting his Cubs cap. “Keeping them safe from the ‘Yookey Dukes!’” Both brothers laugh, embrace again, and then cast their sights down at this page, now a stage, where dudes and dudettes carrying voices, horns and guitars gather to take on this thought prompter: “What song sums up your experience with and/or appreciation of Joe Segal?” (The tunes designated with an asterisk are accompanied by a video available by clicking on the link or thumbnail). Solitaire Anna Miles, vocalist: (*) “I did every gig at the Jazz Showcase with Willie Pickens. We always opened with “Exactly Like You," and if Joe was there, he would sing it with me from the audience, so I think he liked the tune…or at least the way Willie and I did it.

  • Guitarist Larry Coryell Turns to the Classics
    Guitarist Larry Coryell turns to the classics By Howard Reich Arts Critic February 24, 2012 Guitarist Larry Coryell can veer far from the jazz mainstream and indeed built the early part of his career, in the 1960s and'70s, doing just that. But Thursday night at the Jazz Showcase, where he's playing through Sunday, he zeroed in on standards and classics, producing some of the most pristinely beautiful work he has given Chicago in recent years. And yet there was nothing predictable about Coryell's playing, the guitarist up-ending jazz conventions even as he referenced them. From the opening notes of Jerome Kern's "All the Things You Are," Coryell established the framework of the set yet to come. The alternate melody notes and splashes of dissonance that distinguished his opening passages put the tune slightly off kilter, even as Coryell shaped his lines with the craft of an accomplished vocalist. Before long, he was off and running, unreeling fleet, steadily swung eighth notes that bounded forward via unusual melodic intervals. Here was "All the Things You Are" cast in decidedly idiosyncratic terms. In Milt Jackson's "Bags' Groove," Coryell's trio – featuring Chicagoans Larry Gray on bass and Paul Wertico on drums – reveled in the blues, but with delicacy and understatement. Wertico's sleekly articulated rhythms and Gray's softly resonant bass notes gave Coryell a subtle backdrop, against which he played poetic, single-note lines. Lest listeners think Coryell was getting a little too mellow, he picked up the energy level considerably in "Some Day My Prince Will Come," offered as a tribute to Miles Davis, who immortalized the tune as a vehicle for jazz improvisation.

  • Laurence Hobgood Performance/Long Bio
    Laurence Hobgood Performance/Long Bio Contemporary virtuoso pianist, collaborator, composer, arranger, producer, educator, Yamaha Artist/Endorser, multiple Grammy® nominee and 2010 Grammy® winner Laurence Hobgood has enjoyed a multi-faceted and dynamic career. Recognized for his dazzling piano technique and his signature style of composing and arranging he's been transporting audiences both at home and abroad for over thirty years. Coming from an "arts family" (his father was a celebrated teacher of theater and his mother an accomplished Appalachian folk artist) Laurence started playing piano before he could walk. He began formal classical study in first grade in Dallas, TX, where his dad was chairman of the Theater Department at Southern Methodist University. When his father accepted the equivalent position at University of Illinois the family moved to Urbana; this is when Laurence transitioned to studying jazz -- and never looked back. It would be an understatement to say that the jazz/music scene at U. of I. during these formative years was amazingly fertile and had a huge impact on Laurence's musical direction and philosophy. Highlights include three years in the #1 U. of I. Jazz Band led by the iconic John Garvey; private classical study with British classical pianist Ian Hobson (from whom Hobgood learned his technical system/approach); study and close friendship with Sicilian-born master 20th century composer -- and ultimately Hobgood's compositional mentor -- Salvatore Martirano; and countless nights at the still renowned "Nature's Table", the small, 7-night-a-week jazz club where Hobgood "cut his teeth" -- and also first heard many of his main early influences perform: Chicago saxophone legends Ed Peterson and Ron Dewar and pianist John Campbell just to name a few.

  • January 1995
    Features PAUL WERTICO Pat Metheny's Paul Wertico is a bundle of contradictions: a highly exploratory drummer whose solo album is far from a chops-fest; a sophisticated accompanist who never took a lesson; a mainstream musician with avant-garde tendencies. Just who is this guy? Bill Milkowski 36 METAL DRUMMERS ROUND TABLE Away from the arenas and MTV cameras, today's top metal drummers have some serious issues to contend with—about the instrument they play and the business they're entangled in. Mike Portnoy, Deen Castronovo, Mark Zonder, Bobby Rock, Eric Singer, and John Tempesta cut to the chase. Matt Peiken 56 WHERE ARE THEY NOW? So you thought you'd never hear from the drummer in the Archies again—well, think again! Actually...we couldn't track him down.. .but we did get a hold of lots of your old faves— twenty-three of 'em, in fact.
