Podcasts about Charlie Parker

The jazz standard "All The Things You Are" has been performed countless times by master jazz vocalists, 30s big bands, bebop small groups, hard-bop combos, modern deconstructionists, and even soon-to-be Kings of Pop. On this episode, Kirk takes listeners through the history of the now-famous tune, from its humble Broadway origins all the way to his recording studio in Portland, where he and some friends recorded an all-new arrangement just for Strong Songs.Music/Lyrics: Jerome Kern & Oscar Hammerstein IIVersions Featured:Broadway Original Cast Recording of "Very Warm for May," - 1939Tommy Dorsey and His Orchestra, feat.

John Connolly is, in my opinion, the greatest living writer working in the overlap of crime and horror. His long-running series of novels—focused on the Strange cases of his haunted detective, Charlie Parker—is now over twenty books strong. The latest, The Children of Eve is a pivotal instalment, so this seemed a good time to get John on the show, to grill him about this saga's many mysteries, and hideous horrors.   We talk about creating iconic villains, writing violence against the vulnerable, the monstrous feminine and the strange truth of Parker's nature.   There's also some very exciting info on a possible TV adaptation!   Enjoy!   Support Talking Scared on Patreon   Check out the Talking Scared merch line – at VoidMerch   Come talk books on Bluesky @talkscaredpod.bsky.social  on Instagram/Threads, or email direct to talkingscaredpod@gmail.com Learn more about your ad choices.

When he was five years old, Max Pollak had a moment. Sitting in front of a black-and-white television in suburban Vienna, he saw Fred Astaire tap dancing for the first time. “I was so spellbound by his elegance and his effortless swinging persona that I immediately decided I have to learn how to do that,” he remembers. He didn't understand the cultural context or the language, but he knew that whatever was happening on that screen — the rhythm, the movement, the magic — was something he had to pursue. That moment sparked a lifelong journey that would take him from Austria to Harlem to Havana and back again. Here, Max Pollak tells the remarkable story of how he taught himself to dance in a place where no formal tap training existed. Early on, improvisation wasn't just part of his style — it was the only way forward. That instinctive relationship with rhythm would become the foundation of his unique voice as an artist. At 14, Pollak met his first mentor: Carnell Lyons, a master tap dancer from Kansas City who had relocated to Europe during the civil rights era. Lyons had grown up alongside Charlie Parker and had performed with jazz legends. He passed on not only the technical language of tap, but a deep awareness of the art form's Black American roots. That relationship shaped the way Max approached dance — not just as choreography, but as culture. After moving to New York, Max began studying drums and enrolled in Bobby Sanabria's Afro-Cuban ensemble at The New School. It was there that he was asked the question that would redefine his artistic path: Do you want to tap dance to Cuban music — or do you want to tap dance Cuban music? Inspired by that challenge, Pollak dove into Afro-Cuban music, learning the language of clave and fusing it with tap, body percussion, and voice. The result was RumbaTap — a groundbreaking synthesis of traditions that bridges continents and cultures. When members of the legendary Los Muñequitos de Matanzas saw Max perform, they asked him to teach them. That moment affirmed the authenticity of his approach and led to collaborations in Cuba that brought him closer to the source of the music he had been drawn to for so long. Today, Max Pollak is widely recognized as one of the most innovative tap dancers in the world. His contributions to the language of tap, particularly in blending it with Afro-Cuban music and body percussion, have earned him international recognition — including the rare honor of having his image featured on a United States postage stamp. He's also a vocalist, drummer, composer, and storyteller. This week, he celebrates the 25th anniversary of RumbaTap with a special performance at 92NY, featuring members of Los Muñequitos. This episode came together unexpectedly, sparked by a tip from bassist and composer Alexis Cuadrado, who sent me the press release for the 92NY concert. I reached out to Max for a short interview — and the conversation turned out to be so rich and wide-ranging that I decided to share it in full. We talk about lineage, improvisation, spirituality, and what happens when you follow the rhythm only you can hear. www.third-story.com www.leosidran.substack.com www.wbgo.org/podcast/the-third-story

Prestamos atención a uno de los músicos más interesantes de la historia del jazz, un bopper elegante como ninguno, uno de los mejores herederos de las enseñanzas y descubrimientos de Charlie Parker, el señor Phil Woods. Ante el inmenso legado discográfico del saxofonista, he querido dar un somero repaso a sus discos más relevantes o los que, a criterio mi criterio, son más significativos, comenzando por una de sus primeras grabaciones, Woodlore, de 1955, recuperando tambien alguna sesión previa de su juventud con el guitarrista Jimmy Rane. Despues pasamos por discos como 'Pairing off' (1956), 'Warm Woods' (1957), ‘Rights of swing' (1961), ‘Alive and well in Paris' (1968), 'Recorded live at Jimmy´s (con Michel Legrand)' (1975), 'The New Phil Woods Album' (1975), 'I Rewmember' (1978) y 'Dizzy Gillespie Meets Phil Woods Quintet' (1986) En cada una de las composiciones mostradas, Phil demuestra la gran pericia con su instrumento, el saxo alto, así como su buen gusto para el fraseo y genialidad como compositor. No menos importantes son los músicos con los que se ha ido cruzando a lo largo de su vida, y en este programa nos encontraremos con otros historicos del jazz como Teddy Kotick, Joe Morello, Tommy Flanagan, Philly Joe Jones, Gene Quill, Dizzy Gillespie, Curtis Fuller, Sahib Shihab, Henry Texier, Daniel Humair, Michel Legrand, Grady Tate, Hal Galper o Tom Harrell.

When 13 year old Nicholas Barclay reappeared after vanishing three years earlier, his family welcomed him home with open arms, despite his new accent, eye color, and strange behavior. But private investigator Charlie Parker wasn't buying it. In this second part of the Nicholas Barclay case, the truth finally unravels: who was the man pretending to be Nicholas, and why did the family insist he was their missing son? What comes next is a wild tale of deception, grief, and one of the most notorious con artists the world has ever seen.

Impara tutto sulla musica e sul tuo strumento, poi dimentica tutto sia sulla musica che sullo strumento e suona ciò che la tua anima detta.(Charlie Parker)

Víctor Carrascosa Quintet es un conjunto originario de Barcelona, compuesto por jóvenes músicos, cada uno con un prestigio consolidado en la escena del jazz en España. Al frente se encuentra Víctor Carrascosa, quien lidera y define el sutil concepto musical del grupo, acompañado por Camil Arcarazo en la guitarra, Diego Hervalejo en el piano y teclado, Ton Felices en el contrabajo y Christian Smith en la batería.Su propuesta musical se nutre de las raíces del jazz más tradicional, explorando a fondo las obras y técnicas de grandes pioneros como Miles Davis, Charlie Parker o John Coltrane, y desvelando la esencia mágica que estos artistas transmitían. No obstante, además de esta profunda conexión con el pasado, el sonido del grupo se proyecta hacia el futuro, integrando nuevos timbres y texturas en sus composiciones e improvisaciones. Cada uno de los integrantes posee una voz única e innovadora, y comparten el anhelo de expresarse artísticamente mediante la comunión y la conexión espiritual que se genera al tocar en conjunto.Joventuts Musicals en Menorca (las diferentes delegaciones) se dan la mano con Jazz Obert, que organiza el Festival, para ofrecer juntos este concierto que llega el 29 de marzo de 2025 a la Sala Multifuncional de Es Mercadal."En ningún momento hay fin. Siempre hay que imaginar nuevos sonidos, nuevos sentimientos que transmitir. Y siempre, está la necesidad de mantener lo más refinado posible esos sentimientos y sonidos, de manera que podamos ver realmente lo que hemos descubierto en su estado puro, ver lo que realmente somos y poder transmitirlo", decía John Coltrane.

Maggie discusses in depth, the release of Charlie Parker's "Bird in Kansas City" with Chuck Haddix, curator, Director of the Marr Sound Archives in Kansas City and Charlie Parker Biographer. Charlie Parker had a complicated relationship with his hometown of Kansas City, MO owing both to its history of racial segregation and to his strong ties to his family and friends there. This new set of rare recordings dating from between 1941-1951—most of them never having been heard before and some never even having been known to exist—chronicle Bird's evolution from a blossoming soloist with the Jay McShann Band into a brilliant improviser who dominated the jazz landscape for decades to come. In addition to two unreleased 78s with the McShann band, this set offers two sets of private recordings (at the home of Bird's friend Phil Baxter and at Vic Damon's studio) made with local musicians and a very relaxed-sounding Parker who has the room to really stretch out and show us the shape of jazz that was to come in his wake. This recording provides a fascinating look into Parker's development.Sources: https://www.udiscovermusic.com/news/charlie-parker-bird-in-kansas-city/Sources: https://www.kansascitypbs.org/local-shows/bird-not-out-of-nowhere/chuck-haddix/Sources: https://library.umkc.edu/bird/Host Maggie LePique, a radio veteran since the 1980's at NPR in Kansas City Mo.

C'est un endroit intime, où l'on a l'habitude de se rendre seul mais qui en dit beaucoup sur nos sociétés. Souvent signalés à l'aide de pictogrammes pour nous aider à trouver le chemin, les toilettes régissent en effet nos comportements. Si les femmes portent aussi des pantalons, elles sont généralement invitées à se diriger vers le personnage habillé d'une robe. Derrière ces petits bonhommes géométriques se cacheraient finalement nos représentations des femmes et des hommes. Au point peut-être d'exclure les personnes qui ne s'identifient pas à un genre ? La question est tout sauf anecdotique. Aux Etats-Unis, elle s'immisce même dans l'épicentre du pouvoir. En novembre 2024, une Députée républicaine présentait un texte visant à interdire l'accès aux toilettes pour femmes du Capitole à Sarah McBride, première personne transgenre élue au congrès américain.

He was born in 1926 and lived to be just 98 years old, having played in public well into his 80s. Donaldson was an alto saxophonist who began his career as a disciple of Charlie Parker, with whom he played, but, as part of the group of young players recruited to Blue Note Records in the 1950s he developed a more soulful sound. In the hour-long tribute to his music, we sample that great era of jazz, “Hard Bop” in which Donaldson was so important.

For this episode we're joined in person by the delightful Siân Pattenden, author of the Agatha Bilke and Magical Peppers children's book series. We start by asking our guest about her early years as a child actor and teenage playwright before she describes the fanzines she published with her pal Nicky Fijalkowska. We hear how these helped to get her foot in the door at Smash Hits, the million-selling pop bi-weekly she joined in 1989. Quotes from classic Hits pieces she wrote are interspersed with hilarious recollections of working alongside Tom Doyle and Sylvia Patterson.  From "Ver Hits" we move on to the more indie-tastic Select and Siân's part in the Britpop wars – with special attention to Elastica, Jarvis Cocker and a pulped July 1994 issue that contained her guide to "legal highs". After reminiscences of a stint teaching music writing at the London School of Journalism, Siân explains the genesis of her 1998 book How to Make It in the Music Business. Mention of a 2007 Guardian Blogs piece bemoaning the "boy-rock" template established by the Beatles leads into reflections on the all-girl Bangles, subject of a new authorised biography by two-time RBP podcast guest Jennifer Otter Bickerdike. The desperately sad passing of David Johansen prompted us to dig out and digitise a 1994 audio interview with the sometime New York Dolls frontman. We hear three clips of David talking very amusingly to Q's Mat Snow – and in the process pay tribute to the singer and his fellow Dolls.  After Jasper marks the 70th anniversary of the death of Charlie Parker with quotes from the late Richard Cook's magnificent 1995 piece about the bebop genius, we pay additional tribute to jazz-funk vibraphonist Roy Ayers and neo-soul queen Angie Stone. Many thanks to special guest Siân Pattenden. Visit her website at sianpattenden.co.uk for more info on her books, art and music. Pieces discussed: En Vogue: Dawn! Maxine! Terry!

The Quadraphonnes, Portland’s all-women sax quartet, will perform the music of the eccentric artist Moondog at the Alberta Rose Theater on March 7. Moondog was a blind street musician in New York City who worked with some of the biggest names in music in the mid-20th century, including Philip Glass, Leonard Bernstein, Charlie Parker and Benny Goodman. We’ll hear more about the show and get an in-studio performance from the quartet: Mieke Bruggeman on baritone saxophone, Chelsea Luker on alto and soprano saxophone, Michelle Medler on tenor saxophone, and and Mary-Sue Tobin on alto and soprano saxophone.

Alto saxophonist Erena Terakubo, from Sapporo, Japan, began her recording career early, releasing her first album when she was only 15 years old. Inspired by a saxophone-playing M&M doll, Erena developed an interest in music that led her to become a notable figure in contemporary jazz. Her journey inclu0des playing in big bands in Sapporo and preferring jazz over classical music. In this episode, Erena Terakubo exuberantly shares her early influences, including J Fusion and musicians like Charlie Parker and David Sanborn. She shares insights into her life in the United States, cultural adjustments, and the challenges she encounters in New York City's jazz scene. With guidance from fellow alto sax player Vincent Herring, Erena navigated the business side of jazz. Erena talks about overcoming initial nervousness, gaining confidence, and arranging music for big band performances at Jazz at Lincoln Center. She highlights the significance of emotional expression in music and how her influences have shaped her improvisational style. Additionally, Erena discusses her experiences as a woman in the predominantly male jazz industry, her ongoing project, and her future goals. This episode delves in her story and explores various aspects of jazz. Erena acquired the nickname, North Bird. Find out at the end of this episode how she earned it. The discography for this 32-year-old saxophonist is impressive. Erena now has six recordings as a leader: Absolutely Live (King Records, 2019), Little Girl Power (King Records, 2018), A Time for Love (Cellar Live/King International, 2016), Erena Terakubo with Legends: Burkina (Eighty-Eight's, 2013), Erena Terakubo with Legends: New York Attitude, (King Records, 2011), and North Bird (King Records, 2011). What is more impressive are the personnel for her first three projects. Listen to this conversation to learn about this. Thanks to King Records, we will listen to three tracks from Erena's latest recording, Erena Terakubo: Absolutely Live! The quartet includes Erena Terakubo-Alto Saxophone, soprano saxophone; Mayuko Katakura-piano, Rhodes; Motoi Kanamori-bass; Shinnosuke Takahashi-drums, percussion. All compositions written by Erena Terakubo. 1. Little Girl Power 8:26), 2. A Crystal Path (6:54), 3. Be Nice (4:47) Thank you for listening.

In James Baldwin's Sonny's Blues (Oxford University Press, 2024), Tom Jenks follows a scene-by-scene, sometimes line-by-line, discussion of the pattern by which Baldwin indelibly writes "Sonny's Blues" into the consciousness of readers. It provides ongoing observations of the aesthetics underlying the particulars of the story, with references to Edward P. Jones (whose magnificent story "All Aunt Hagar's Children" bears a knowing relationship to "Sonny's Blues,") to Charlie Parker's music, and to Billie Holiday's "Am I Blue?" and John Coltrane's "A Love Supreme" as part of the musical progression Baldwin creates, and with attention to Baldwin's oratorical gifts and the biblical references in the story, to its time structure, characterizations, dramatic action, and, most of all, its totality of effect. Drawing on Baldwin's book-length essay The Fire Next Time, which Baldwin published a six years after the publication of the short story, Tom Jenks offers insight on some of the sources in Baldwin's life for "Sonny's Blues" and on the logic and passion by which life may be meaningfully transformed into art. Tom Jenks is the cofounder and editor of Narrative magazine. Check out his magazine online here. He is a former editor of Esquire, Gentlemen's Quarterly, The Paris Review, and a senior editor at Scribners, where he edited Hemingway's The Garden of Eden. With Raymond Carver, he edited American Short Story Masterpieces. His writing has appeared in Harper's, Ploughshares, Vanity Fair, Esquire, The American Scholar, Five Points, the Los Angeles Times, and elsewhere.

Listen to a tribute to the legendary jazz drummer Roy Haynes. He passed away last November at the age of 99. Hear classic jazz music from Haynes, featuring his work with the jazz masters of Indiana Avenue.  Roy Haynes was among the greatest and most influential drummers in the history of jazz music. Though Haynes spent the majority of his life in New York, he performed with many legends of the Indiana Avenue jazz scene, including Freddie Hubbard, J.J. Johnson, Larry Ridley, Bill Jennings, James Spaulding and more. Haynes was born in Boston, Massachusetts in 1925. He began playing drums professionally, as a teenager during the early 1940s. His crisp and distinctive sound on the drums earned him the nickname “Snap Crackle”. By the end of the 1940s, Roy was playing with the greatest stars in jazz, including Lester Young, and Charlie Parker. In the following decades, Roy continued to be a dominating force in jazz, performing with Sarah Vaughan, John Coltrane, Thelonius Monk, Chick Correa, and dozens of other iconic jazz artists.

Listen to the second episode in our three-part series celebrating the 100th anniversary of the birth of trombonist J.J. Johnson, one of the greatest jazz icons to emerge from Indianapolis. On this edition, we'll focus on Johnson's work in bebop and hard bop music. Johnson worked with many of the greatest legends in bebop, including Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, Max Roach, and many others.

Last week, the music world lost two titans of jazz: drummer Roy Haynes and saxophonist Lou Donaldson, both NEA Jazz Masters who reshaped the genre with their artistry. This special episode of Art Works pays tribute to their immense contributions through archival interviews and timeless performances. From Roy Haynes' crisp, innovative drumming that defined the evolution of jazz over seven decades to Lou Donaldson's soulful alto saxophone that bridged bebop and groove, we celebrate their remarkable journeys.Roy Haynes reflects on his first big break with Luis Russell, playing at the legendary Savoy Ballroom, and his unforgettable collaborations with jazz icons like Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, and Sarah Vaughan. Lou Donaldson, known as "Sweet Poppa Lou," shares insights on his trailblazing recordings for Blue Note, the rise of bebop, and his dynamic partnership with Jimmy Smith that popularized the organ-sax sound. Featuring selections from their iconic tracks—including “Green Chimneys,” “Blues Walk,” and “Alligator Bogaloo”—this episode highlights the lives and music of two artists whose impact will resonate for generations. 

JAZZ CORNER, lundi et jeudi à 13h et 18h. Chronique animée par Serge Mariani, Louise Hodé ou Géraldine Elbaz : concerts à ne pas manquer, albums à écouter au plus vite et des artistes à découvrir. Cette semaine, Géraldine nous parle du saxophoniste Benjamin Petit. Dire qu'il est question de retrouver les racines festives et populaires du jazz, cela pourrait faire cliché. Mais il n'en est rien avec ce nouvel opus de Benjamin Petit, saxophoniste autodidacte passé par la pop qui assume vouloir parler au grand public au travers de mélodies populaires qui ont marqué son âme d'enfant. Le saxophoniste a découvert Branford Marsalis par le biais de Sting, il s'est ensuite passionné pour Charlie Parker et Coltrane, avant de rouler sa bosse sur des tournées de Michel Jonasz entre 2000 et 2002 en tant que jeune sideman de 22 ans. Son premier album sorti en 2017 (parrainé par la Maison des Artistes d'André Manoukian à Chamonix) empruntait déjà à la tendance jazz-bebop-hard bop au groove léger et entraînant, un style proche de ses deux figures tutélaires, marqueurs des années 1990, Kenny Garrett et Branford Marsalis. Désormais, il prend pour thématique les musiques de films, celles qu'il aime passionnément, et nous livre un magnifique album intitulé "Dear John" sortie en 2022 chez Art District Music.
