Goldbergs By Joseph Payne I just listened yesterday to joseph Payne s Goldbergs on BIS. He also confirmedthat the harpsichordist was really a pianist, as I d suspected. http://www.bach-cantatas.com/NonVocal/Klavier-Goldberg-Payne.htm
Extractions: Goldberg Variations BWV 988 Joseph Payne (Harpsichord) Goldbergs by Joseph Payne Goldberg Variations Goldberg Variations BWV 988 Joseph Payne (Harpsichord) BIS CD / TT: ? Kirk McElhearn wrote (June 3, 2001): I just listened yesterday to Joseph Payne's Goldbergs on BIS. I was a bit surprised at first by what I was hearing, then, as the recording went on, I began to appreciate it, and even like it. Here's the rub. Payne has decided to fully appropriate the score. While in the first playing of each variation he follows the score to the letter, the repeats feature a truly personal ornamentation, augmentation and even improvisation. At first, this stunned me - even in the repeat of the first part of the aria, he goes out on a limb. I recalled how Andras Schiff's recording rubbed me the wrong way because of his transgressions.
Johannes Brahms & Bach So he could play it for himself when joseph Joachim wasn t around to play theoriginal for Like Ravel, he had a friend who was a lefthanded pianist. http://www.bach-cantatas.com/Topics/Brahms.htm
Extractions: The problem is more in the big stuff to do with the arm motions, and the thick handfuls of notes, and the leaps, and the wide stretches within each hand, than in the fingering of scale passages. There's so much in octaves, and in chords in each hand as the targets of leaps...a minefield. (Take, for example, the "Handel" and "Paganini" variations where some of the figurations are just plain anti-ergonomic to the hands.) Go buy the Katchen set of it all, and marvel!

Midnight Rhapsody -- More About Bradley Young As a pianist, the Chicago native s eclectic and soulful performing and composing bradley began classical piano lessons at age five, and by seven he was http://www.bradleyyoung.com/bio.html
Extractions: Combining a profound sense of the past with a distinctive flair for the present, and offering exciting innovations for the future, pianist Bradley Young takes the standard definition of "virtuoso" to unique and promising new places on the musical horizon. Drawing upon a remarkably diverse series of historical and modern piano influences, Bradley has established himself as a dynamic player, composer and band leader in every genre from blues, soul, and boogie woogie to traditional and contemporary jazz, which is Bradley's first love. In fact, it is his passion for contemporary jazz that has inspired him to create Midnight Rhapsody , his newest CD release on Omnibus Records. As a pianist, the Chicago native's eclectic and soulful performing and composing style is unique in that it is reflective of nearly the entire history of jazz piano. His own musical evolution was inspired over the years by everyone from stride and boogie woogie players like James P. Johnson, Willie "The Lion" Smith and Meade "Lux" Lewis, to swing and bop giants such as Bud Powell, Oscar Peterson, and Herbie Hancock, to contemporary jazz masters like Alex Bugnon, Brian Culbertson, and Joe McBride. Bradley began classical piano lessons at age five, and by seven he was performing recitals with his own improvisational compositions. In his early teens, while studying privately at Northwestern University and the Evanston Conservatory of Music, a family friend, who was also a jazz pianist, gave Bradley his entire collection of blues and boogie woogie 78s, and Bradley became enamored with those genres. As he was performing his first professional gigs at Chicago blues hotspots with local legends like Freddie Below and Big Time Sarah, Bradley was also studying with famed Chicago blues pianist and recording artist Erwin Helfer.
Jazz | All About Jazz for the pianist, but the arc points towards greater and greater interaction . Kenny Barron Live at bradley s Simply stellar mainstream piano trio http://www.allaboutjazz.com/library/pianotrio.htm
Extractions: By Gerard Cox When one talks about "jazz piano music," it is almost taken for granted they are talking about jazz piano trio music. The trio is and has been most jazz pianists' favorite format, and with good reason: the jazz piano trio has been said at times to represent the essence of jazz in the most condensed yet effective way possible. A piano trio takes full advantage of swing, interaction, and dynamics. There have certainly been outstanding jazz piano trios throughout jazz history, each with its own signature sound: There is the majestic swing of the Oscar Peterson trio, the classy bop of Hank Jones and his trio, the great independence within the Bill Evans trio, and so on. Each great jazz piano trio has brought something slightly different into the fold. As a general rule of thumb, it would seem that since1960 piano trios have become more interactive and democratic. Formerly, in the heyday of both swing and bop, the piano assumed a very dominant role where, it would have been fair to say, it was less a trio in the ideal sense of three equal parts, than it was piano PLUS bass and drums. The Bill Evans trio was critical towards pushing the envelope for a more democratic piano trio; now we can look to fine piano trios like those of Keith Jarrett and Brad Mehldau as their continued legacy. There will always be room for more straight-ahead swinging piano trios, where bass and drums play roles more defined as timekeeping and support for the pianist, but the arc points towards greater and greater interaction.

Extractions: He died at the age of 85 in Chatsworth, California on 27th April 1977 In 1934, MGM decided that they had to get into the growing cartoon business but they weren't brave enough to create their own unit. Instead, they bought in cartoons from the Hugh Harman/Rudolf Ising company (the name of the company, Harman-Ising, was a deliberate pun). Scott Bradley worked for Harman-Ising, having previously been at Disney, alongside Carl Stalling who later went to Warner Brothers and worked on 600 of the famous Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies. So, when MGM decided to create their own in-house cartoon unit in 1938, it was natural that they bought in most of the people from the Harman-Ising stable and Bradley became a full time MGM employee. Cartoon music was, in the mid 1930s, still pretty much a collection of popular songs linked together with the occasional musical effect supporting the action. It wasn't until the late '30s that the music started to tell the story more than the sound effects did. Roy Prendergast in his book Film Music, a neglected art
