We’d like to think that in a highly partisan modern world, we actually live up to the credo: “We New York@Night Report, You Decide”. No segment of jazz or improvised music or avant garde or 4 whatever you call it is overlooked, since only as a full quilt can we keep out the cold of commercialism. Interview: Cooper-Moore Sometimes it is more difficult, especially during the bleak winter months, to 6 by Kurt Gottschalk put together a good mixture of feature subjects but we quickly forget about that when June rolls around.

This month we have the Vision Fest; a mini-iteration of the Festival of New Trumpet Music (FONT); the On The Cover: Dee Dee Bridgewater inaugural Blue Note Jazz Festival taking place at the titular club as well as other 9 by Marcia Hillman city venues; the always-overwhelming Undead Jazz Festival, this year expanded to four days, two boroughs and ten venues and the 4th annual Red Hook Jazz Encore: Lest We Forget: Festival in sight of the Statue of Liberty. -

By the time he w as out of high school, he w as ready to veer aw ay from imitative Chuck Berry licks in favor of learning to play the instrument more seriously. While enrolled at Boston's Berklee College of Music, Abercrombie w orked w ith other students and played local clubs and bars. "it w as pretty much your standard guitar-organ-drums set up." An offer to tour w ith organist Johnny Hammond led to his going on the road for w eeks at a time, playing such spots as Count Basie's Lounge and the Club Baron in Harlem. During that same period, Abercrombie met the Brecker Brothers w ho w ere in the process of forming Dreams. They invited Abercrombie to play w ith them, and he w as heard on Dreams' debut album on Columbia.

Februar 2020, 20:30 im M8, Mainz, Mitternacht 8 www.jazz-mainz.de Wayne Krantz – guitar Keith Carlock – drums Tim Lefebvre – bass www.waynekrantz.com KCL – Live in Mainz! Seite 2 von 5 WAYNE KRANTZ - guitar Krantz arbeitete bei Bands und Musikern wie Steely Dan, Michael Brecker, Billy Cobham und anderen. Seit Anfang der 1990er Jahre nahm er unter eigenem Namen eine Reihe von Alben auf, beginnend mit Signals, das er Mitte 1990 mit Jim Beard, Leni Stern, Hiram Bullock, Anthony Jackson, Dennis Chambers und Don Alias für Enja einspielte. Die ersten weiteren Alben hat er im Trio mit dem Bassisten Lincoln Goines und dem Schlagzeuger Zach Danzinger aufgenommen, Greenwich Mean und Your Basic Live mit Tim Lefebvre und Keith Carlock. Er hat mehrere Tourneen durch Europa und Asien hinter sich, ist aber meist donnerstags abends in der New Yorker 55 Bar anzutreffen. In letzter Zeit war Wayne Krantz auf Tour und im Studio mit Chris Potter und bei den Aufnahmesessions für das Album Morph the Cat des Keyboarders und Sängers Donald Fagen beteiligt. Seit 2013 spielt Krantz mit Michael Landau und Jimmy Herring in der Band The Ringers. Stil, Sound und Equipment Die Musik von Wayne Krantz ist beeinflusst von Jazz und Rock. Er hat einen ganz eigenen Stil entwickelt, bei dem vor allem seine sehr rhythmische Spielweise und die häufige Nutzung von leeren Saiten auffällt. Krantz legt großen Wert auf improvisatorische Freiheit und musikalische Gruppendynamik. Er setzt oft einen Moogerfooger Ringmodulator ein, der seine rhythmische Spielweise noch mehr zur Geltung bringt.
