The Skatalites (Jamaica The Skatalites (Jamaica. Ska, Rocksteady, Reggae, Jazz) The Skatalites (o The Ska-Talites) es un grupo de origen jamaicano de ska creado en 1964. El nombre está formado a partir de la mezcla de «The Satellites» con la palabra «Ska». Historia The Skatalites están considerados los creadores del ska y, por tanto, influenciadores del rocksteady, del reggae -ya sea early (Skinhead), roots (Rastafarismo)...-, del dub, del dancehall, y del de sus descendientes musicales que derivan de los sonidos tradicionales de Jamaica. Sus primeras grabaciones de ska datan de junio de 1964, aunque estos músicos habían trabajado bastante tiempo antes como banda de estudio para el sello Studio One, grabando principalmente rhythm and blues. Los miembros originales de la banda obtuvieron su formación musical a partir de los músicos de jazz de la isla Jamaiquina. Por eso, aunque se inspiraron en lo que sonaba en Estados Unidos (principalmente boogie woogie) y los sonidos africanos, la música de The Skatalites y por lo tanto el ska, contiene muchos elementos propios del jazz. Otra influencia decisiva para la creación de la música ska fue la música afro-cubana, también llamada "música latina". De hecho Lloyd Knibb (baterista) explicó abiertamente que el ritmo tan singular que creó fue inspirado por tocar ese estilo de música en las grandes orquestas de la época previas al ska. Entonces, de la fusión de música afro-cubana, jazz, rythm and blues, mento y calypso nació el ska. Los miembros originales de The Skatalites fueron Don Drummond (trombonista), Tommy McCook (saxo tenor y flauta), Roland Alfonso (saxo tenor), Lester Sterling (saxo alto), "Dizzy Johny" Moore (trompeta), Lloyd Brevet (bajo) Lloyd Knnibb (batería), Jackie Mittoo (Piano y Órgano), Jah Jerry Haines (Guitarra). The Skatalites grabaron para los "soundsystems" a través de "Studio One", del que eran banda de estudio. Llegaron a ser muy populares en Jamaica y fueron la influencia de toda la música posterior en la isla. La mayoría de grandes artistas de música jamaicana, como Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Bunny Wailer, Toots and the Maytals, Laurel Aitken o Prince Buster grabaron o dieron conciertos con ellos, e incluso hoy en día, muchos grupos tienen colaboraciones con el grupo por lo que significa para esta música, por ejemplo, los americanos New York Ska-Jazz Ensemble.

The melody is the same, of course, but with the blazing horns and heavily pronounced beat, it was totally on fire—and so full of life that remains the hallmark of ska and the Skatalites.” Jim Bessman | BILLBOARD MAGAZINE “I saw the Skatalites at the Palace in Los Angeles in 1989, playing with Bad Manners. I remember how astonishingly tight they were, and how swinging their jazzy ska groove was. I’ve been an admirer for at least…wow, is it 20 years by now?” Phil Freeman | Managing Editor: GLOBAL RHYTHM MAGAZINE “I am comforted each time I hear The Skatalites. They are each and all a precious keepsake of what is wonderful and joyous about Jamaican culture.” Pat McKay | Reggae Format Manager: SIRIUS SATELLITE RADIO “The Skatalites are pure energy: hot like fire, with a scorching, skanking rhythm and big-band bravado.” Mark Harris | Editor: REGGAEREVIEWS.COM “Ska is ubiquitous, and there’s no disputing that they started it all. When you also consider the influence that the various Skatalites alumni had on the subsequent styles of Jamaican music, then you could argue that they are one of the most influential groups in 20th century popular music.” -Carter Van Pelt | DJ/ Writer “Eric Clapton once said that he didn’t want to talk to anyone who didn’t know Robert Johnson’s music. I kinda feel that way about the Skatalites…” “Not only did they pave the way for the intricacies and nuances of the rocksteady, reggae and dub styles that followed, but they’ve been held in continual high esteem by musicians, intellectuals and such non-mainstream types as punk rockers. They were the cultural barometer of their day. To feel how influential they are on a global scale, listen to their recent live album recorded in Argentina. You can hear the audience singing along to songs that don’t have lyrics! What other band can connect with a crowd that way?” Tom Orr | THE BEAT MAGAZINE “The joy of discovery that you hear in the first recordings is still there in the band today.” Andy Bassford | GUITAR: Mutabaruka, Gladiators, Congos, Toots Hibbert, Ernest Ranglin, Burning Spear “Lloyd Knibb is one of the greatest and only drummers from Jamaica to set precedence, adapting the Burru, Pocomania and Repeater style of African polyridmic playing. He is the Godfather of Jamaican drumming. Just ask Sly and anyone who dare to tread in his footsteps. He is de king.” Phil Chen | BASS: Prince Buster, Funk Brothers, Rod Stewart, Jeff Beck, The Doors “It’s great to know that the Skatalites are still out there as the foremost exponents of this unique Jamaican genre.” Dermot Hussey | Reggae Program Director: XM SATELLITE RADIO - See more at: http://www.skatalites.com/press/#sthash.NJ9qFRcl.dpuf .

  • CHASE Annual Report 2006 V5.Indd
    1 MESSAGE FROM THE HON. MINISTER OF FINANCE & PLANNING Dr. Omar Davies It is with pleasure that I send this message to be part of the annual report for the CHASE Fund for the year 2005/2006. In its short period of existence the Fund has made a significant contribution in the vari- ous sectors for which it has provided support. CHASE is indeed a unique institution in that it is guided by a Board of highly competent individuals, specialists in their own fields, but united around the objective of fostering development in the sectors of society which are needed in the continued process of “civilizing” our beloved country. Futhermore, the activities supported by CHASE also benefit greatly from voluntary contributions especially in terms of professional expertise. The operations of the CHASE Fund provide a concrete example of the possibilities of our country when we unite around attaining common objectives. As Minister with responsibility for the Fund, I place on record appreciation for the work of the Board, the management and the staff, not only over the past year but during the life of the institution.

  • There's Never Been a More Important Time to Know Our History
    There’s never been a more important time to know our history. Understanding that the fundamental challenges we face as a society today are not dissimilar to those our ancestors faced gives us a fresh perspective on our lives. One of the common threads is music and, with that as its foundation, Sumach Roots (the album and live show) takes audiences on a bold and innovative exploration of Upper Canada’s evolution over the past three hundred years. The brainchild of two-time JUNO nominee and best-selling historian Jason Wilson, Sumach Roots draws from a deep well of sounds— from traditional British folk to bebop jazz and classic reggae—in order to tell the stories of those who built Upper Canada, both literally and culturally. With a top-flight cast of performers joining him on stage, Wilson delves into the late eighteenth century diaries of Elizabeth Simcoe, the impact of the Irish Famine, and the great Toronto fires of 1902 and 1904. With equal measures of humour and pathos, Sumach Roots joyfully illuminates the host/immigrant experience in Upper Canada. The album is a follow up to Wilson’s acclaimed Perennials (2016) and is the second part of his Valley Road Trilogy, a trilogy that celebrates “place” and its importance to history and memory. THE CAST JIM ARMSTRONG – James Pott / various Jim is a classically trained actor with a BFA in Acting from the University of Windsor. His favourite roles in the theatre include Detective Dick in High Park Noir (Simply Twisted Productions), Rosencrantz in Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead (Hart House Theatre), Jean in Rhinoceros (Seven Siblings Theatre), Ambituoso in Cousins of Corsica (Springworks Festival) and Tom from The Generation Gap (U of T Drama Centre).

Os anos entre o fechamento e a reabertura Agência O Globo foram de muita militância cultural, política e judicial, num movimento que reuniu pessoas da classe artística e políticos comprometidos com as causas culturais. Vencedor de uma ação popular, o Circo Voador ganhou o direito de voltar ao funcionamento, e a prefeitura do Rio de Janeiro ‒ que havia demolido o arcabouço anterior ‒ foi obrigada a construir uma nova estrutura para a casa. Com uma nova arquitetura, futurista e mais atenta às questões acústicas inerentes a uma casa de shows, o Circo retomou as atividades no segundo semestre de 2004 e segue ininterruptamente oferecendo opções de diversão, alegria e formação artística ao público do Rio e a todos os amantes de música e arte em geral. 8 Circo Voador Apresentação Uma característica do Acervo Circo Voador pós-reabertura é que a grande maioria dos eventos tem registro filmado. Ao contrário do período 1982-1996, que conta com uma cobertura significativa mas relativamente pequena (menos de 15% dos shows filmados), após 2004 temos mais de 95% dos eventos registrados em vídeo. O formato do período que este catálogo abrange, que vai de 2004 a 2009, é a fita MiniDV, extremamente popular à época por sua relação custo-benefício e pela resolução de imagem sensivelmente melhor do que outros formatos profissionais e semiprofissionais.
