Who needs Spanish when you've got a saxophone? A music-lover proves that disability access is just another improvisation in Havana's jazz scene. Best viewed as a video https://youtu.be/Qz9Rm89LHD0 Summary Danny, Health Hats, chronicles his week-long trip to Cuba in January for a music-cultural exchange. Using a wheelchair and playing baritone saxophone, he traveled with a group of 11 from the States, organized by Dan Fox and Arlington MA's Morningside Studios. The group participated in a "Band Camp" hosted by the Havana Music School, receiving daily individual lessons, rehearsing in ensembles, and performing Cuban music at a restaurant. Despite Danny's initial anxieties about traveling with his disability and instrument, he found Cubans accommodating and helpful. The podcast features an interview with Claudia Fumero, manager of the Havana Music School, who discusses: The school's focus on teaching Cuban music to foreign visitors How the business began and evolved from connecting students with teachers in their homes to having a dedicated facility Her dream of expanding with more instruments and creating a small café where people can play music The episode is interspersed with musical performances by the ensembles, including renditions of "Sofrito" and "Afro Blue" by Mongo Santamaria. The group also attended the Havana Jazz Festival each night during their stay. Click here to view the printable newsletter with images. More readable than a transcript, which can also be found below.

My nighttime voices bombarded me. How can you go to Cuba as a musician? You're not good enough. Your wheelchair won't make it over their crumbling roads and sidewalks.  Your horn is too big and heavy with everything else. You can't do too many stairs. You don't speak Spanish. You won't be safe. I hate those deflating voices. I should be excited about this chance of a lifetime. I completely trust Dan Fox, our guide and arranger. My disabilities do not define me.

Consideriamo jazz quella famosa hit dei The Doors che Jim Morrison compose con le note di Afro Blue? La nostra risposta sarà assolutamente no. Ciò nonostante sarà motivo sufficiente per inserirla, un giorno, in una nostra puntata.

OUAJS #46 Le programme de la semaine est bien cool :  Oh Yeah ! Ça tombe car le premier titre que nous allons écouter n'est autre que le morceau Oh Yeah de Laurent Bardainne et de son quartet Tigre d'eau douce, un extrait de leur denier album , Hymne au soleil , sorti en janvier 2022. Quand on parle de nouvelle scène jazz , la scène britannique n'est jamais très loin et on le prouve avec les excellents Yussef Dayes et Alfa Mist et leur titre Love is the message, extrait de leur album éponyme sorti en 2018. Restons vivants , c'est le mot d'ordre des Bee Gees mais aussi celui du groupe frenchie Electro Deluxe qui reprend pour notre plus grand plaisir ce célèbre titre disco version jazz,  Stayin Alive  Direction l'Italie pour déguster une spécialité de Lo Greco Bros , le hip hop jazz, avec le titre The roots way, extrait de leur album Flow Bop. Place à la douceur réconfortante du miel en ce janvier pluvieux grâce au titre bourdonnant de Gabi Hartmann ,  Buzzing Bee , premier titre de son premier album  dans les bacs le 13 janvier. Ensuite nous prendrons l'air avec la formation de Hubert Dupont , Sirocco. Ce quartet qui oscille entre impro jazz et danse hip hop nous fera voyager sur leur titre Géante rouge Enfin, pour terminer cette 46ème émission sur une note bleue , nous écouterons la reprise du titre Afro Blue par le Robert Glasper Experiment et la voix enchanteresse d' Erykah Badu. 

Hola amigos y amigas de Blues Syndicate, espero que hayáis tenido un verano deabuten como decían en mis tiempos. Contaros que durante los próximos espacios de Domingos de Blues de Blues Syndicate vamos a dar un repaso a los artistas que van a descargar en la décimo tercera entrega del festival segoviano WIC, por esa razón vas a escuchar varias canciones de casi todos los artistas programados. Variamos un poco nuestra costumbre y también nos apartamos en algunos casos del blues y el rock que se suele escuchar en Blues Syndicate, pero merece la pena. El WIC sigue siendo un festival independiente Winter Indie City sin sponsors ni marcas y con propuestas muy chulas internacionales y nacionales de artistas que están en plena ebullición. Acaban de cerrar el Afro Blue con muy buenos artistas y comentarios y se vuelven a meter en charcos. Estos del Wic tienen un par de huevos porque para una ciudad como Segovia, con poco más de 50.000 habitantes, tener el WIC es un auténtico lujo y ya van por su 13 edición que también es relevante, se por experiencia lo que cuesta que te apoyen en esta bonita ciudad. Y es que Blues Syndicate siempre ha estado abierto a este tipo de iniciativas y festivales, incluidos los que no tienen mucho que ver con el blues o sí, como por ejemplo el festi de música country de nuestra provincia, el Huercasa, y otros conciertos que nos gusta apoyar y desde nuestra pequeña parcela promocionar o al menos dar a conocer, lo malo es que en la mayoría de las ocasiones no hay ese feedback que se necesita para no tirar la toalla. También hay una verdad, uno lo hace porque quiere y le apetece y nadie le obliga.

Ever heard of Jug? Gene Ammons along with Sonny Stitt? Maybe Willis Jackson or Red Holloway. These cats were mercenaries on the band stand counting off Cherokee at some ridiculous tempo that would separate the common artist from the professional. Take a trip down to Jim and Andy's and you just might see my guest with Al McKibbon or Cal Tjader playing Afro Cuban melodies with Ray Barretto, or Stomping at the Savoy with mainstay Kenny Burrell. Jazz is really black blues and for a long time a jazzers education was on the streets up the corner and round block from Chess Studios where cats like Ramsey Lewis and Ahmad Jamal paved the way for younger minority improvisers to develop an identity. My guest is as accomplished a player as those listed above. He whistles while he works playing chromatic hypnotic chords to tunes like Afro Blue, mas Ritmo Caliente and Along Came Betty. He came of age in the old school back in the game when albums were being written about the Tender Gender, melodic invention with no words just sounds- mainly acoustic with drummers like Joe Dukes, Idris Muhammad, Elvin Jones, Dick Birk, the aforementioned Tjader, Joe Morello and Art Blakey. These cats were messengers of music with an understanding of their significance to pass the music along to those who were younger, educate them on the history the technique the looseness and unique sound that would ultimately pave the way for their own careers. His collaborations are noteworthy because he got his shot with the masters. Rasa an Roland Kirk, another free king in Charles Mingus, Roy Haynes and Frank Foster.

Wait! There's more! Listen to the full episode on Patreon: patreon.com/blkgirltalkspop | All social media: linktr.ee/blkgirltalkspop Hey y'all! It's been a while, so I'm so grateful to you for coming back. This month will be another music haul! First, I'll bring back the segment Hear Me, Hear Me and introduce a new segment called Where Did the Black TV Shows Go. Then on my Patreon, I'll dive into my problems with One Tree Hill's Drama Queens podcast. After that, I'll discuss the music I've bought! I'll be reviewing the first albums from the Black pop artist Lu Kala (Kah-luh) and the jazz artist Christie Dashiell (Duh-sheel), a former member of the a capella group Afro-Blue. On my Patreon, I'll discuss Meghan Trainor's second album Thank You and GWSN's (Go-won Sun-yuh's), or Girls in the Park's, mini-album The Other Side of the Moon. Disclaimer(s): First, I want apologize for any audio issues in advance. Also, I don't know any of these people, so I'm not speaking on anyone's behalf. I just make comments based on the words and actions of others. I don't intend to cause harm or offense, but I apologize for any words which could have communicated a lack of empathy or intentional thoughtlessness. Please respectfully let me know what I could have said better or seen in a different light. I want to keep learning so I can create opportunities for conversation and change, and I hope that you will grow with me. Corrections Corner: I referred to Sondi as a 3b as a shorthand for having lighter skin, but Black people with lighter skin can have type 4 hair, so my apologies for any offense. Furthermore, Matthew accused Sondi of being IMmature. The current Run the World trailer is different from the trailer I saw during the summer (maybe there was backlash to suggesting that another light-skinned biracial woman would be the lead of a Black show...). The trailer below gives the FOUR stars of the show time to shine. Christie Dashiell effortlessly scatted in Afro Blue's cover of American Boy, NOT Killing me Softly. Christie Dashiell's album is HIT. No question about it!

La voix d'Oscar Brown Jr est un des trésors cachés du jazz américain. Derrière ce ton gouailleur et ce charisme de comédien, se cache un artiste aux multiples talents - poète, compositeur et parolier - qui fut dans les années 60 l'avocat d'un peuple noir en quête de délivrance. “Mon but, disait-il, est de porter un message qui swinguem>e et créer du divertissement qui a du sens”. Une ambition qui, pourtant, va se heurter à un mur : celui d'un show business impitoyable dans une Amérique rongée par ses démons. Oscar Brown Jr restera donc un chanteur méconnu, malgré ses versions inoubliables de Work Song, Dat Dere ou Afro Blue. Un poète maudit en quelque sorte, qui inspira Bob Dylan et Gil Scott Heron, créa une comédie musicale avec Mohamed Ali, présenta les premières informations noires sur une radio américaine, et postula sans succès pour un siège au Congrès des Etats-Unis. “Être un nêgre, ça n'est pas toujours plaisant”, écrivait-il dans les notes de l'album Sin & Soul, “mais c'est un stimulant redoutable pour l'âme”. Tombé dans l'oubli au crépuscule de sa vie, Oscar Brown Jr lâchera, acide : “On m'a fait taire. Parce que j'étais... dangereux”.    Étagère 9… Boîte n°5… Dossier OBJ1926… Oscar Brown Jr, anatomie d'un chanteur culte.Hébergé par Ausha.

In Abbey Is Blue, Abbey Lincoln proprone fra l'altro una interpretazione di Afro Blue, brano di grande successo di Mongo Santamaria che la Lincoln è fra i primi a riprendere ed è forse la prima ad offrirne una versione cantata. L'episodio cruciale del sodalizio artistico di Max Roach e Abbey Lincoln è la Freedom Now Suite, uno dei capolavori del jazz della seconda metà del secolo, inciso nell'agosto-settembre del '60 con il cruciale contributo della cantante: dalla condizione degli schiavi e passando per il disincanto seguito all'emancipazione, la suite arriva all'Africa del '60, anno fatidico delle indipendenze africane ma anche del massacro di Sharpeville nel Sudafrica dell'apartheid. Non solo la Lincoln è decisiva per la forza e originalità espressiva della Freedom Now Suite, ma attraverso questo album offre una prova tangibile della possibilità di un'altra vocalità jazzistica, diversa da quella più canonica: la Lincoln dimostra che la vocalità jazzistica può essere anche grido, sospiro, riso, vocalità pura, insomma, ricerca libera, fuori dagli schemi.

La scomparsa pochi giorni fa di McCoy Tyner ha suscitato molta emozione, e una ragione è senz'altro che il grande pianista, 81 anni, era l'ultimo dei componenti del favoloso quartetto di John Coltrane che fece epoca nella prima metà degli anni sessanta; quel quartetto ha poi profondamente suggestionato la nuova generazione di appassionati che è arrivata al jazz negli anni successivi alla morte di Coltrane, ma poi ha via via conquistato altre generazioni più giovani, ed è stato scoperto anche da tanti, anche in questi ultimi decenni, che senza essere specificamente degli appassionati di jazz non sono rimasti insensibili di fronte al fascino della musica di Coltrane. Rendiamo omaggio a McCoy Tyner ascoltandolo in My Favorite Things e A Love Supreme di Coltrane, e poi nel suo classico live a Montreux nel '73 (dall'album Enlightenment) e in una magnifica versione orchestrale di Afro Blue, sempre del '73 (dal suo album Song of the New World).

This is a black arts and culture site. We will be exploring the African Diaspora via the writing, performance, both musical and theatrical (film and stage), as well as the visual arts of Africans in the Diaspora and those influenced by these aesthetic forms of expression. I am interested in the political and social ramifications of art on society, specifically movements supported by these artists and their forebearers. It is my claim that the artists are the true revolutionaries, their work honest and filled with raw unedited passion. They are our true heroes. Ashay! From the Archives 1.
