In 1989 she moved to Graz, Austria, where she received a scolarship to study at the University of Music and Performing Arts with Jazz Giants Jay Clayton, Mark Murphy, Andy Bey and Sheila Jordan. She traveled often to New York, got deeper and deeper in the Music, and started performing in Austria, France, Germany, Slovakia with renown international jazz artists In 1994 she moved to Vienna, where she had an engagement from Porgy and Bess, one of Europe’s finest Jazz club, and she started to perform on different special Events with Europe leading Big Band : the Vienna Art Orchestra. She started as well a serial of recordings for ORF, the Austrian Radio, presenting each year a different project, and she wrote songs and music for six movies of Austrian director Xaver Schwarzenberger. In 1999 she was again in New York recording her first solo album « Anna Lauvergnac » (wich features some of America and Europe top jazz musicians, such as Andy Bey,John Di Martino, Boris Kozlov,Pete Bernstein Wolfgang Puschnig, Claus Raible, Alegre Corea etc) for the Swiss label TCB, and back to Europe she was offered to be the new singer of the Vienna Art Orchestra : in the following decade she appeared on hundreds of concerts with the band, performing in all the major Jazz Festival and theaters in Switzerland, Italy, Austria, Russia, Holland, Bulgaria, Lituania, Norway, Ukrain, Portugal, Cech Republic, Hungary, Spain, England, Poland, Luxenburg, Belgium, Germany, Croatia, China, Cuba, Canada. (Umbria Jazz, Paris Jazz Festival, Berlin Jazz Festival, Time in Jazz, Natt Jazz, Beijing Jazz Festival, Nord Sea Jazz Festival, Wiener Festwochen, Festival Jazz de l’Havana, Toronto Festival, Vancouver Jazz days…) and recorded 12 CDs, mostly for Universal Music. On the side she kept touring with different bands in Italy, France, Austria and Germany, collaborating with great artists such as Bojan Z, Alegre Corea, Paolo Fresu, Fritz Pauer, Till Martin, Bumi Fian etc and released the cds « You must believe in Spring » for Petit Paquet Records and « Come Closer » for ACT, and partecipated as a guest artist in different recordings. She’s been featured on top cultural-events such as the Ruhe Triennale and the Opening of the Wiener Festwochen (which is broadcasted live on TV in most European countries), the Expo 2000, the Midem Cannes, the Cezanne exibition in Vienna, and on several live and radio shows of Austrian Rock Star Willi Resetarits Press « Praised by Sheila Jordan, Lauvergnac shares that veteran jazz artist's willingness to risk unusual musical efforts, regardless of the potential consequences. » Don Heckman, Los Angeles Times « It is undeniably jazz but, though the songs belong entirely to the New World, the Modernism on display seems to evoke the capital cities of the Old. This is not to imply an abstract intellectualism, merely to point out that Lauvergnac is no “mimic” and brings to the record a persona that does not care to hide its geographical and cultural origins. »-MMaurice Bottomley, Pop Matters "You always hope that a singer that looks like this would sound great….she does…from somewhere else…a day dream. An enigma….." - Vince Outlaw, The New Jazz Thing radio, San Diego « The multiculture of Anna Lauvergnac is dizzying. With a name is as Francophonic as La Marceillaise, the listener might be surprised (if not shocked) to find she was born in Trieste, a town on the most eastern side of Italy. ( )Ms. Lauvergnac chooses spare arrangements with little accompaniment for her collection of less trodden ballads. Pianist Andy Bey joins her on "Don't You Know I Care" and "Waiting for Someone to Love," while guitarist Peter Bernstein shows up for "Your Must Believe in Spring". The disc highpoint shows up halfway through with the medley of "I Fall In Love Too Easily / the Meaning of the Blues." Recorded for TCB, the Montreux Jazz Label, Anna Lauvergnac is a soothing stroll down the lyrical road less traveled. » C.

  • French Stewardship of Jazz: the Case of France Musique and France Culture
    ABSTRACT Title: FRENCH STEWARDSHIP OF JAZZ: THE CASE OF FRANCE MUSIQUE AND FRANCE CULTURE Roscoe Seldon Suddarth, Master of Arts, 2008 Directed By: Richard G. King, Associate Professor, Musicology, School of Music The French treat jazz as “high art,” as their state radio stations France Musique and France Culture demonstrate. Jazz came to France in World War I with the US army, and became fashionable in the 1920s—treated as exotic African- American folklore. However, when France developed its own jazz players, notably Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli, jazz became accepted as a universal art. Two well-born Frenchmen, Hugues Panassié and Charles Delaunay, embraced jazz and propagated it through the Hot Club de France. After World War II, several highly educated commentators insured that jazz was taken seriously. French radio jazz gradually acquired the support of the French government. This thesis describes the major jazz programs of France Musique and France Culture, particularly the daily programs of Alain Gerber and Arnaud Merlin, and demonstrates how these programs display connoisseurship, erudition, thoroughness, critical insight, and dedication. France takes its “stewardship” of jazz seriously.

  • Jazz Collection: Lauren Newton (W)
    Jazz Collection: Lauren Newton (W) Samstag, 13. Juli 2013, 22.00 - 24.00 Uhr Die Amerikanerin Lauren Newton gilt als eine der wichtigsten zeitgenössischen Vokalimprovisatorinnen. Nach einem klassischen Gesangs- und Kompositionsstudium an der University of Oregon und der Musikhochschule Stuttgart machte sie sich schnell einen Namen in der Jazzszene. Von 1979 bis 1989 war Lauren Newton die Stimme des Vienna Art Orchestra, und prägte den Sound dieses Orchesters massgeblich mit. Mühelos wechselte sie die Rollen von der vierten Stimme im Trompetensatz zur Solistin in Songs und im freien Kontext.Sie trat aber immer auch als Solistin und mit eigenen Vokalensembles auf, nachdem sie 1982 mit einer der stilbildenden Gruppen in diesem Bereich für Furore gesorgt hatte. Im Vocal Summit sang sie neben Bobby McFerrin, Jeanne Lee, Urszula Dudziak und Jay Clayton. Die SRF-Jazzredaktorin Annina Salis hat an der Musikhochschule Luzern bei Lauren Newton studiert und ist Gast von Peter Bürli.

  • NEW CD: Georg Breinschmid – „Wien Bleibt Krk“
    R e v i e w s - Page 1 of 17 CD „Wien bleibt Krk“ – Georg Breinschmid Released in March 2008 on Zappel Music. NEW CD: Georg Breinschmid – „Wien bleibt Krk “ Working in a recording studio is not always as fun as a lot of people would like to think. In this case, it was a lovely act of fate to be the private concert audience listening to top-notch musicians for hours on end, and getting paid for it. We know him from the Vienna Philharmonic, from the Vienna Art Orchestra and in connection with many other roles. A musician characterised by virtuosity, enthusiasm and terrific wit: The double bass player Georg Breinschmid also demonstrates his talent as a producer with his new CD “Wien bleibt Krk”. His works presented here are convincing in a burlesque, charming, subtle yet coarse, nonchalant, smart, traditional (and) sly way, with mellow tonality and at the same time blatant self-mockery. Whether vocal or instrumental, you never know if perhaps in the next moment Johann Strauss II will turn the corner with an alien attack dog. This CD brings together a selected cast of exceptional artists, including Beni Schmid, Stian Carstensen and Thomas Gansch. For Breinschmid and his fellow musicians, there’s not much separating romantic sounds from those of a berserk madhouse choir. Intelligent tricks and turns hide behind harmless gestures scattered here and there. But even in his more serious songs, the accomplished double bass player’s compositions are completely convincing. Those whose eyes remain dry during the duet “Lost Daughters” – interpreted bittersweetly by Tini Kainrath and Willi Resetarits – would be better off signing on with the French Foreign Legion.
