(uses Wine-O-Baby Boogie Rocket Boogie 88 (Part 1) Old Piney Brown's Gone Baby Won't You Marry Me ... Around The Clock Blues (Part 2) REVIEWS In later years, sessions like these without nearly as much finesse would be called Rhythm and Blues, would gain a considerable amount of popularity and ultimately give birth to the ugly offspring of music known as Rock and Roll. The collection at hand could be termed Blues and Swing, because all of the rhythm sections here play strongly but swingingly, avoiding the bludgeon-like lack of subtlety that would pervade the idiom later on. Pete Johnson's "orchestra," as it is billed here, consists of six musicians, including no brass but featuring two or three saxophonists backing the vocals with grace and flow, never honking or bleating. Joe Turner would remain a consistently strong blues performer throughout most of his long career, but during the sessions contained on this album he received some of the most sympathetic accompaniment he would get on record, at least until he was rediscovered by jazzers and young bluesmen nearly 20 years later. A large part of that musical sympathy comes in the pianistic presence of Pete Johnson.

Dave Peck Explores the Soft Beauty of Improvisation Article by Todd Matthews F or pianist Dave Peck, the biggest musical treasures can be found in ballads. This was made crystal clear during a visit to Peck's North Seattle home and studio last month, where we listened to songs from his new recording, Good Road (Let's Play Stella Records), shortly before its release. Halfway through the sixth track "The Star Crossed Lovers" by Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn, one of several ballads on the new album I mentioned to Peck that he seemed naturally drawn to the slower tunes. Peck agreed. "It's my temperament, I guess," he explained. "I like to look at pretty things. The ballads seem to hold the most interest for me. I keep trying to find new, interesting and obscure up-tempo tunes, but it's hard. I could just go ahead and play the up-tempo standards everybody knows and try to do something different with them. But I can always find a gorgeous ballad that hasn't been played much." Seattle pianist Dave Peck has teamed up with long-time collaborators Jeff Johnson (bass) and Joe La Barbera (drums) to record the new album Good Road . "They're very comfortable and easy to play with," says Peck. "They have huge ears and great sensitivity to the kinds of things I like to do. I kind of like the idea that I don't really know what will happen. I don't really know what the music is going to sound like which is kind of a nice thing. It just depends upon what the three of us are thinking that day."

Recommend this CD to a friend Reviews Liner Notes Press Kit Contact “They had a piano in every house, every beer garden here. You could hear music all over Cincinnati back then.” —Big Joe Duskin Cincinnati may not be as famous a “Home of the Blues” as Memphis, Chicago and St. Louis, but the blues tradition in this Southwest Ohio city goes back to the music’s beginnings early in the 20 th Century. Like its better-known sister rivertowns, Cincinnati is a gateway city, auspiciously located at the crossroads of America’s North and South, East and West, a place where Southern migrants and European immigrants flocked for good-paying jobs in the factories, railroads and on the busy Ohio riverfront. Cincinnati became a business and transportation center in the mid-19 th Century, when the steamboats ruled the inland waterways. Railroads later kept the Queen City of the West on the move. One thing shared by Cincinnati’s hard-working citizens, whether they be German-Catholic, African-American or Southern-Appalachian, was a love of good times, usually accompanied by good beers. Along with commercial goods, the river and the railroads kept musicians moving through town. When the radio industry boomed in the 1920s-1940s, Cincinnati’s 500,000-watt WLW became “The Nation’s Station,” with a staff that included Fats Waller, Merle Travis, Chet Atkins, Andy Williams, the Mills Brothers and homegrown divas Rosemary Clooney and Doris Day.

69. Kenny Werner Biography: MarsJazz Booking Agency Bob Blumenthal of the Boston Globe, a long time supporter of the trio said, He has also served as pianist, arranger and musical director for the noted http://www.marsjazz.com/kennywbiocurrent.html

KENNY WERNER was born November 19, 1951, in Brooklyn, and his introduction to music and performing came at the age of four when he joined a children's song and dance group. At the age of eleven, he recorded a single with a fifteen-piece orchestra and appeared on television playing stride piano. His love of the classics was nurtured when, while still in high school, he attended the Manhattan School of Music, where he became a concert piano major upon completion of his high school studies. Werner's emotional need to improvise began to take him out of the classical world, and into the world of jazz. So, in 1970, he transferred to the Berklee School of Music. There he began to find his creative direction. In Boston he met his piano teacher and spiritual guide, Madame Chaloff. "She was the first person I met who pulled together spiritual and musical aspects," recalls Werner. She ignited in him a concept that was furthered by his next teacher, Juao Assis Brasil, a concert pianist who successfully demonstrated to Werner effortless piano playing with a self-loving attitude. Werner met Mr. Brasil while touring South America with Juao's twin brother, Victor Assis Brasil. This ideology blossomed in Werner and constitutes his approach to music and creativity today. In 1977, Werner recorded an LP that featured piano solos of the music of

Performing original arrangements of works by composers such as Ernesto Lecuona, George Gershwin, Eliseo Grenet and others,the group utilizes an unusual combination of strings (Yrving Yeras and Lisa Crowder on violin, Alexander Fox on the Cuban tres guitar, and Jennifer Vincent on cello) and occasionally even integrates traditional Cuban percussion into its works. The quartet's unique timbre breathes new life into venerable 19th Century classical compositions in the habanera and danzon styles and also infuses contemporary popular music with a distinctly modern classical twist. Non-traditional tonalities and improvisational exploration lend the YeraSon Quartet its inimitable character and energy. Featured Artists: Anthony Tommasini, piano and Nancy Armstrong, soprano

Printable Page Joe Sample Joe Sample has entertained for more than four decades, first as a founding member of the ground-breaking fusion ensemble The Crusaders , and since the late '70's, as a popular solo contemporary jazz artist. Sample began playing piano at age five and the Houston, Texas, native rooted himself in many different musical genres including gospel, soul, bebop, blues, Latin, and classical music. Like many jazzmen of his time, Sample started out playing hard bop, but went electric during the fusion era. Along with trombonist Wayne Henderson, tenor saxophonist Wilton Felder and drummer Stix Hooper, Joe Sample launched The Jazz Crusaders in the late '50's. Relocating from their hometown of Houston to Los Angeles, The Jazz Crusaders, who attended Texas Southern University together, patterned themselves after Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers and became renowned for their unique tenor/trombone front line. Joe Sample focused on the acoustic piano during The Crusaders' early years, but placed greater emphasis on electric keyboards when the band turned to jazz/funk in the early '70s and dropped the "Jazz" from its name. After collecting numerous gold and platinum albums over the course of nearly three decades, The Crusaders' last official recording was "Life in the Modern World" in 1987. Sample and Felder later released "Healing the Wounds" on GRP in the early '90's.

In 1997 they came together to form the Pandelis Karayorgis Trio. Since then they have recorded two CDs: (Leo Lab ) in 1998 and Blood Ballad (Leo Records) in 2001. A new CD was just recorded in February 2005. The trio has been featured by Kevin Whitehead on NPR's Fresh Air and has received critical acclaim internationally, including several critics' "best of the year" picks. Jazz Times lists Blood Ballad on its Critics' Picks 2001 list while the Boston Phoenix calls this trio one "of the best in the world" and lists Heart And Sack on its top-10 choices for 1998 saying: "Karayorgis combines Lennie Tristano's sense of linear propulsion with Paul Bley's conception of the piano trio as a free-flowing three-way conversation. That makes for a coiled, winding and unwinding sense of swing driven by Karayorgis's prickly lines and expansive harmonies, bassist Nate McBride's mix of gestural abstractions and deep-walking, and drummer Randy Peterson's ability to drop the downbeat anywhere, confounding expectations and drawing you into this band's remarkable pulse."

Franz Joseph Liszt Influence Orchestral Music Piano Music Important Information: ... Chorale works and others F ranz, Joseph Liszt was born in Raiding on 22 October 1811 and died in Bayreuth on 31 July 1886. He was a Hungarian composer, pianist and conductor Liszt was an innovator in his piano and orchestral works, and created new approaches to form. A s pianist, composer and personality, Franz Liszt strides across the whole of the nineteenth century and is seminal in his influence on the twentieth. Although Liszt was born along with the first generation of romantic composers (Berlioz, Chopin, Schumann and Mendelssohn), he outlived them all to become a friend of Wagner and proponent of the "music of the future." F A fter two years he was set to pursue his studies at the conservatory in Paris, but Cherubini, then the director of that institution, refused to admit him because he was a foreigner. His Father Adam then resorted to Ferdinando Paer to teach Franz composition. After a further private education he played at the houses of rich families and in 1824 he made his debut in London. He caused a sensation and soon played at Drury Lane and before George IV. Finally the Liszt's settled in Paris and the career of the young Franz progressed at a tremendous pace. In 1825 his one act opera Don Sanche was performed in Paris.
