Some classical musicians choose to follow a specific lane throughout their career, either as an orchestral musician, a chamber player, or a concert soloist. But Stewart Goodyear can't confine his career to one lane — he demands an entire highway. As a concert pianist, composer, arranger, and improviser, Goodyear has built one of the most multifaceted careers of any musician today. His recitals thoughtfully place works of Debussy and Liszt next to his own compositions and new pieces from Jennifer Higdon and Anthony Davis. And his ever-expanding discography shows incredible depth — from the complete concertos of Beethoven to Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue and Goodyear's transcription of Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker. This eclectic approach to music-making is the result of an artist who finds inspiration in everything life has to offer. "The more I'm not boxed in, the more there's room to create and think outside that box," Goodyear says on the latest episode of the Classical Post podcast. In this conversation, we discuss the many exciting projects on the horizon this season — including his second year as the inaugural Artist in Residence at Toronto's Royal Conservatory of Music, the world premiere of his Piano Concerto with the Grammy Award-winning Albany Symphony Orchestra, and the Toronto premiere of Callaloo, Goodyear's suite for piano and orchestra that pays homage to his Trinidadian background. Plus, he shares more about the ways positivity and optimism fuel his wellness routines, the similarities he sees between cooking and orchestration, and how finding a great restaurant in New York City can be as simple as "letting your feet take you where you want to go." — Classical Post uncovers the creativity behind exceptional music.

Australian jazz pianist Barney McAll has had a fascinating music career. An accomplished jazz pianist and composer with an innate musical curiosity and drama, Barney's played with Gary Bartz, Kenny Garrett, Maceo Parker and Eddie Henderson... and he was Sia's music director too. No big deal. In this episode, we chatted about the influence of Cuban and African ritualistic trance on Barney's work, his time as composer in residence in Sydney and how he's developed as a musician. In this episode, we chat about Barney's new album, Precious Energy, the influence of the Cuban musical and ritual has had on him,Barney's musical process and writing routine, what audiation is and teaching audiation, his stint touring with Sia as her music director, Anti-pop, the power of objectivity and unwittingly taking part in Laurie Anderson's 15-year old art exhibition (yes, really)

What a pleasure to chat with this legend of music. Let me ask you a question: What do Miles Davis, Luther Vandross, Sting, Roberta Flack, Whitney Houston, Chaka Khan, George Benson, Michael Jackson, David Sanborn, Vanessa Williams, and hundreds of other legendary artists and musicians have in common? Yes...they've all worked with Grammy Award-winning producer, keyboardist, composer, arranger, and synthesist Jason Miles. For 46 years, Miles has contributed his vast array of talents and deep musicality to the success of these and countless other superstars and independent artists. This man's talent, knowledge, and stories could fill a book Actually, Jason Miles will be doing just that. The book is almost complete and is titled - The Extraordinary Journey of Jason Miles...A Musical Biography. Jason gives me little snippets of insider backstage/room things that are covered in this new book. One, never to stand still, Jason shares exciting insights into the motivation(s) for his latest projects completed just before covid and while in lockdown, and he's fired up and ready to take his latest album -  Kind of New- Black Magic out onto an International tour. This is a man with real genuine passion and energy for all things music, life, and love. Highly recommend you go over to his website, bookmark it and follow him on his social media channels. Let's finish off with a quote about Jason Miles from another icon of the music industry;   “Jason Miles has raised the level of excellence for the musicians who have had the good fortune of working with him, myself included. He has enriched the lives of the millions of people who have listened to the music he plays, the recordings he produces, and the countless musicians he mentors and inspires. The work he did with my friends, Miles Davis and Marcus Miller have helped to define the modern face of jazz music." ​- Roberta Flack Here is the website link I promised to keep up to date with ALL things -  Jason Miles Music - website.

Born to a Chinese father and Jewish mother, and raised in the multicultural metropolis of Toronto, Allison found music as a young child.

My guest this week is the one and only AUBREY LOGAN. Aubrey is singer songwriter, trombone player and an amazing performer. It would have been a lot easier if Aubrey Logan would have just picked one. But she's never been one to be pigeon-holed. She lives her life outside the box and that makes her difficult to define. And that's OK with her because she purposely defies definition. Her Top 5 debut album in 2017 helped establish her as one of the premier young singer-instrumentalists in the country. Her participation in Dave Koz's #1 album, DAVE KOZ and the Summer Horns: From A to Z in 2018 helped cement her position. But it was her own #1 album in 2019 that really helped Aubrey Logan become a household name with music aficionados around the world. Because it was that album, Where the Sunshine is Expensive, that showed the depth of songwriting that she's capable of. Her new Album STANDARD will be released on May 21. The 1st 2 singles ON THE SUNNY SIDE OF THE STREET and DREAMS are available on all music platforms.  To download her music on Spotify, cllick HERE Her appearance on American Idol helped her meet some of the people she's worked with throughout her career. She is beloved by not just the dedicated fans of Postmodern Jukebox, but she considers the creator, Scott Bradlee, and her colleagues within the collective her true friends. She absolutely loves performing. But it's in her writing that we find out who Aubrey Logan really is.

What a pleasure to chat with and hear sing the unmistakable soulful voice of Finnish musician, composer, arranger and vocal coach Charlotta Kerbs. (also affectionately known as) Charlotta Curves.  I've been following Charlotta on YouTube and social media for sometime, and she's always amazed me with the versatility of her voice, with its deep expression and amazing tone. As I mentioned it's one of those voices that is immediately recognizable. Please listen in and hear for yourself - I actually had tears flowing with her first of two songs she sings for us. The second is a haunting folk song and reminds me of many of the reasons I admire and love the time I've spent over in the lands of the Nordics.   I recommend you check out all things Charlotta Kerbs (also known as) Charlotta Curves on her social media channels.

Shawn XG“No matter what you learn in your artistic journey, those are just things you can put into your libraries; that doesn't mean you have to use all of them.”- Shawn XG.Welcome to another fantastic episode of Vivid Talks, where I interview Shawn XG, a self-made musician who plays over 20 different instruments! Shawn is a Composer, Arranger, Producer, Performer, and Educator, who plays several instruments ranging from strings, wind to the piano and traditional Chinese. Shawn has composed a lot of music for TV shows, short films, and video games and is a sought-after artist in the industry! Shawn was 13 when his dad brought him a guitar as a Christmas present. He wanted him to get over addictive gaming. But that decision by his father changed his life altogether. The joy of having learned an instrument well drew Shawn into doing more. He started learning more instruments. From trumpets to the piano, Shawn has mastered all ticks and tingles!Though he's learned multiple instruments in his musical journey, Shawn finds string instruments to be his thing. When asked where he gets this genius from, Shawn says, “My musical taste has been primarily shaped by pop music.” He says that sometimes, you needn't mix many different chords to make the music sound engaging. A single chord could also make some great music to listen through.Shawn also talks about YouTube as being more of a social platform than a video platform. To anyone who wants to take up a musical journey in life, this episode could be just the right start!
