Reflections Mozart, Father Ted and Me by Joseph Lewis Heil '59l On Palm Sunday, 1959, I finished reading The Education of Henry Adams, a required Great Book my last seminar in the General Program at Notre Dame, now called the Program of Liberal Studies. Adams described his German education as a total failure except for his "only clear gain his single step to a higher life." That single step happened at a music hall "drinking beer, smoking German tobacco, and looking at fat German women knitting, while an orchestra played dull music." One day he was surprised to notice that his mind discovered beauty in that dull music: it was a movement of a Beethoven Symphony. Adams declared, "Among the marvels of education, this was the most marvelous." My own music education had no such epiphany. I was raised on good music. My father was a gifted, amateur pianist who did justice to the Steinway 'L' that my mother's father had bought for her back in 1927. That fine ebony grand graced my parent's living room for 61 years until my mother's death in 2002. When I was a youngster, my father played it often. One night I was awakened by my father playing for company. I found the music to be beautiful and choose to listen rather than fall back to sleep. I was only 6. Years later I learned that the piece my father performed that night and many times thereafter was the celebrated

86. Piano Forte News * Amateur Artist Joe Townley Q. As a teen you had dreams of becoming a concert pianist. I wondered if Icould do the same after being away from the piano for so long. http://home.earthlink.net/~mahannon/Html/PF_JTownley_aa.html

Joe Townley had youthful aspirations of becoming a concert pianist when he suffered an injury that changed his life. After walking away from the piano for nineteen years, he has returned with a renewed determination to pick up where he left off and go beyond. Taken from an article in Piano Forte News Vol 5, No. 4 Q. As a teen you had dreams of becoming a concert pianist. What interrupted that dream? A. I started piano at age 10 and progressed rapidly, winning competitions when I was a teen. I had aspirations of becoming a concert pianist until a dramatic moment changed everything. I was practicing Polanc's Toccata and the final note is the lowest key on the piano. With great gusto and a miscalculation, I struck the block of wood on the piano rather than the low a . I heard a crunch and my finger went numb. The result was nerve damage but I went on to earn a Bachelors and Masters Degree in Music. After 12 years of coping with the recurring finger problem, I decided it was pointless to continue in music and I turned to a career in writing. I stopped playing the piano for 19 years. Q.

Joe Bagg Among the new generation of Jazz Organists is Los Angeles-based Joe Bagg. His presence on the music scene so far has been nothing short of spectacular. He has revealed character in his music and musical choices; exemplified the importance of maintaining family while pursuing a career in music; and conducted himself wisely in an otherwise difficult industry. Today's Jazz Organ Experience will surely thrive through Joe and others with his attributes and sensibilities. Joe Bagg travels with the 'real thing' (Hammond B-3 & Leslie tone cabinet) although he knows what he needs in his van to get through the gig. "I just bought a Nord Electro-II", he admits, "the keyboard feels good, too. I keep it in the van. It actually rescued me once when my Rhodes broke-down." The New (digitized) Hammond B-3 also interests him. "I've played on it and it's pretty close, man! I'm impressed. The bottom of the key-bed feels authentic and you feel like you can dig into it. The sound is pretty fat. Probably the difference is (like) with one B-3 and another one, you know. There are some B-3s that sound a little thinner than others." In his home, Joe has set up his own recording studio where he can document his work in progress. "I just have a little hard disc recorder made by Korg. It records sixteen tracks and I have some workhorse mics and a couple really good microphones. I've made some home-built baffles that section off the Leslie and the drums from each other. We all just kinda play in the same room. It's kind of a mobile set-up. I can take it to where ever we need to record". This can mean transporting the equipment to a gig. "A lot of times what I do just to document, I'll just take a little MP3 recorder out with a stereo mic but I haven't really recorded many live gigs. Although, I do have one that I'm thinking about…I need to get the 'OK' from everybody involved".

Article MT098 - from Musical Traditions No 8, Early 1990 (slightly updated) Joe Barrick's one-man band a history of the piatarbajo and other one-man bands Joe Barrick was born of Choctaw parents in Pauls Valley, Oklahoma in 1922. His first musical instrument, at age fifteen, was the mandolin. He recalls that he wanted something light that he could play as he walked down the road. From a musician friend he learned his first three chords, but it wasn't long before three chords were not enough and he soon was teaching himself a more complicated style of mandolin playing and moving on to fiddle and guitar. He walked and hitchhiked all over southeastern-Oklahoma to play for free at dances (or, rather, parties; dances were frowned upon). He learned tunes from other musicians and off the radio. Few books or records were available to him: You'd hear a tune on the radio, then go off and learn it right quick. Didn't have records. Seemed like you learned quite a bit that way. You remembered it! One of Joe Barrick's earliest influences was the music of Bob Wills. He greatly admired his fiddle playing and still plays a lot of tunes associated with him.

/p> CD Review Book Review Page 1 of of Reviews section Every month Bad Dog Blues takes a look at the best new blues releases and offers our opinions, criticism and general ramblings. We'll also take a look at noteworthy reissues and blues related books. In addition you'll find a real audio clip from each record we review located on the bottom left. Now on to this months reviews: "And we played it on the sofa, and we played it side the wall And we played it on the sofa, and we played it side the wall But boys, my needles have got rusty, and it will not play at all" (Robert Johnson, Phonograph Blues) Jon Cleary: Moonburn (Virgin) Joe Krown: Carl Sonny Leyland: I'm Wise (Hightone) The remaining tunes are all originals that stray between rockabilly and blues. They remind me of some of the early Sam Phillips fine one. Joe Krown may be the least known of the three, but by no means the least talented. Joe has been the keyboard player for Marva (Dave Moskal) Lazy Lester: All Over You (Antone's) It's been more than forty years since Lazy Lester first walked into the Excello studios and, well, not much has changed. That's a good thing not a bad thing. "All Over You" proves that Lester has weathered the times well with his lonesome high pitched harmonica and engaging drawl well intact. While no new ground is broken this a welcome release and a solid dose of classic swamp blues.

Currents Contents Poetry Latest Favorites ... Main Site Elvin Jones We miss him. I miss him. I miss 'Trane and Miles and Monk. I miss people I knew well a little more, I guess, like Dexter and Philly Joe and Tony Williams. And I didn't really know Elvin personally. I played one tune with him at the Keystone Korner, and I got hugged by him (and I was drenched with his sweat, all down the front of me, but it was pure water, there wasn't any scent to it, it was just pure clean sweat, cycled through a healthy human body, the healthiest human body you've ever seen) but I didn't know Elvin as a close friend. Then again, I knew him intimately. From A Love Supreme to Transition to Crescent , from his work with Larry Young on Blue Note and his work with Joe Farrell ( Puttin it Together ) to his playing with Earl Fatha Hines(!), I knew every triplet, the placement of every little nuance. I even learned how to play a few things on the drums that sounded a little bit like him, all triplet things, all about shifting the triplets around in different ways. His drumming was organic. It told a story. It was a slipping and sliding backwards and forwards kind of feeling, and the space between the beats, at any tempo, was enormous. So much room to play over, and like a feather bed. Soft and warm and easy to feel. And so many said how loud he was, and I was there at the Keystone and it was two bands: Elvin's quartet, and the great Max Roach and his pianoless band (with Odean Pope and Cecil Bridgewater) and he was a whisper compared to Max. He was a butterfly.

98. King Oliver Oliver went on to record a pair of duets with pianist Jelly Roll Morton that Oliver had a life long sweet tooth. He was famous for his love of sugar http://www.redhotjazz.com/kingo.html

Joe Oliver is one of the most important figures in early Jazz. When we use the phrase Hot Jazz, we are really referring to his style of collective improvisation (rather than solos). He was the mentor and teacher of Louis Armstrong Louis idolized him and called him Papa Joe. Oliver even gave Armstrong the first cornet that Louis was to own. Oliver was blinded in one eye as a child, and often played while sitting in a chair, or leaning against the wall, with a derby hat tilted so that it hid his bad eye. Joe was famous for his using mutes, derbies, bottles and cups to alter the sound of his cornet. He was able to get a wild array of sounds out of his horn with this arsenal of gizmos. Bubber Miley is said to have been inspired by his sound. Oliver started playing in New Orleans around 1908. At various times he was a member of several of the marching bands like The Olympia, The Onward Brass Band, The Original Superior and the Eagle Band . He often worked in Kid Ory's band and in 1917 he was being billed as "King" by the bandleader. In 1919 he moved to Chicago with Ory and played in Bill Johnson's The Original Creole Orchestra at the Dreamland Ballroom. He toured with the band, but when he returned to Chicago in
