A Peter White Christmas with Rick Braun and Mindi Abair Brings the Sounds of the Season to Parker Playhouse
November 20, 2015 Media Contact: Savannah Whaley Pierson Grant Public Relations 954-776-1999 ext. 225 Jan Goodheart, Broward Center 954-765-5814 A PETER WHITE CHRISTMAS WITH RICK BRAUN AND MINDI ABAIR BRINGS THE SOUNDS OF THE SEASON TO PARKER PLAYHOUSE FORT LAUDERDALE – Celebrate the holidays with A Peter White Christmas with Rick Braun and Mindi Abair at Parker Playhouse on Saturday, December 12 at 8 p.m. One of the most versatile and prolific acoustic guitarists, White leads the contemporary jazz lineup in this seasonal concert combining smooth jazz cheer with traditional Christmas classics such as “White Christmas” and “Silent Night,” plus a few surprises along the way. White launched his career as a keyboardist touring with Al Stewart and worked with him in the studio on the classic album Year of the Cat. The tour and that album marked the beginning of a 20-year association with Stewart. During that time, the two musicians co-wrote numerous songs, including Stewart’s 1978 hit, “Time Passages.” After years as a backup musician and a session player, White launched his solo recording career and his annual Christmas tour is fueled by the success of his two highly regarded holiday albums, Songs of the Season (1997) and A Peter White Christmas (2007). Braun adds his stylistically eclectic trumpeting to the mix. A consistent chart-topper who has amassed a catalogue of #1 Billboard Contemporary Jazz Chart and radio hits throughout his solo career, Braun has also produced #1 hits for David Benoit, Marc Antoine and former Rod Stewart band sidekick Jeff Golub.

Peter White STARLUX Album Press Release December 2019
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Guitarist Peter White Releases ‘Music for STARLUX Airlines’ White releases album ahead of STARLUX Airlines launch DECEMBER 5, 2019 - Although he has never had a guitar lesson in his life, Peter White has become known as one of the jazz industry’s greatest icons. For over forty years, he has worked with many music greats, recorded eighteen solo and collaboration albums, performed before countless audiences, and most recently, created a special collection of songs for STARLUX Airlines. STARLUX Airlines is a new, luxury airline based in Taiwan. Official flights will begin in January 2020 with plans to expand to North America by 2024. The airline’s attention to detail has created great excitement in the airline community and public: cabins designed by BMW’s Designworks Studio, an impressive in-flight entertainment system, elegant uniforms, free wi-fi for all, an exclusive fragrance, a highly entertaining safety video, and the very music created by White. As a departure from the traditional airline, on-board music style, STARLUX asked that White bring in his special sound for their airline. Founder and CEO Kuo-Wei Chang grew fond of White’s music while studying in the United States and would listen to it while driving. It was his idea to have the guitarist create music for the airline to immerse passengers in a relaxed and happy atmosphere as soon as they board and to enhance their comfort while flying. White’s career began when he was invited to play keyboards for folk-rock singer Al Stewart in the 1970s. His first studio experience was at Abbey Roads Studio recording Stewart’s ‘Year of the Cat’ album with producer Alan Parsons.

As with other charity events, the event is moving online this year as a virtual event. On October 24, 2020 the Workshop will host Jazzmania as an online jazz party and evening of world class jazz performances.

Marcus Miller | Afrodeezia
Marcus Miller | Afrodeezia Musiker-Ikonen gibt es wie Sand am Meer. Insbesondere gefühlte 1 Million Super-Mega-Hyper und Überstars aus der jüngsten U- Musik lassen sich finden. Kaum ein Newcomer, der nicht nach dem erstem Geräusch-Ausstoß als solcher gelisted ist. Erschreckend, was sich meine Kinder – eigentlich Jugendliche mit immensem Musikkonsum- alles so anhören und was ich davon verächtlich in die Plastikmüllkiste wegdrücke. Generationenproblem? Wahrscheinlich. Für Musikbesessene, wie ich es bin, gibt es aber zum Glück diese grandiosen musikalischen Rückzugsorte, ohne die mein Tag nicht auskommt. Also einmal mehr: Marcus Miller. Marcus Miller ist in erster Linie Musiker, Multiinstrumentalist, Komponist, Arrangeur und Produzent, einer der Einflußreichen bei Jazz, Fusion und vielseitiger populärer Musik. Darüber hinaus zählt er zu der Riege der stilprägenden Bassisten wie Stanley Clarke, Viktor Bailey† oder Billy Sheehan , die es fabulös geschafft haben, das Erbe von Ray Brown, Ron Carter, Charles Mingus und Jaco Pastorius (um nur einige zu nennen) in unsere modernen Zeiten zu übersetzen. Avantgarde? Aber sicher. Und immer gut zu hören, nie abgehoben. Marcus Miller war 21 Jahre alt, als man ihn als wichtigen Begleiter von Miles Davis erstmals wahrgenommen hat, das ist fast 40 Jahre und gute 20 Solo-Alben her. Seine Mitwirkungen an den Veröffentlichungen anderer Künstler sind Legion. Die nun vorgestellte CD Afrodeezia stammt bereits aus dem Jahre 2015 und ist wieder einmal etwas Besonderes vom Bassisten: „Was mir am meisten am Herzen lag“, sagt Miller, „war zu den Quellen der Rhythmen, die unser musikalisches Erbe so reich machen, zurückzugehen, ihnen wie Fußspuren zu folgen, von ihren Ursprüngen in Afrika den ganzen Weg bis in die USA.
