Wer war Jo Duval? Keine Ahnung. Niemand weiß das. Was wir wissen ist, dass es ein Album mit einer sehr eigenwilligen Auffassung des Dixieland-Jazz von ihm gab - und genau dies ist das seltene Jazz-Pflänzchen, das Götz Alsmann in seinem Geheimen Garten des Jazz ausgebuddelt hat. Von Götz Alsmann.

Brad Gowans was better known as a valve trombonist and arranger, but he was an adept clarinetist who was initially inspired by the first jazz records by the Original Dixieland Jazz Band. He brought trombonist Eddie Edwards, pianist Frank Signorelli and drummer/kazoo player Tony Sbarbaro from the original group into the World, Commodore and V Disc studios with contemporary players like Wild Bill Davison, Bobby Hackett, Max Kaminsky, Gene Schroeder, Teddy Roy, Eddie Condon and Bob Casey to recreate some of the original tunes, albeit with a bit more swing. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/john-clark49/support

In City Scenes we focus on the music scene of a different city each week, taking in a bit of the history, hearing music by some of the most famous artists to come out of whichever city we're focusing on, and learning about exciting current day sounds that are being made in it right now. We're going through the Alphabet from A-Z and for this episode we're on C and looking at the City of Chicago. Chicago is a City of 2.6 million people located in the state of Illinois in the American Midwest of the USA. It has a huge musical history that it would be impossible to try and cover in the space of half an hour so today we look at some of the main styles of music that the city is known for, namely blues, soul, Chicago house and hip hop and finally we look at an exciting new wave of indie rock bands that are currently stirring things up in the city. To understand the roots of the music that Chicago has produced over the years we can look back to a phenomenon called the Great Migration which happened in between 1910 and 1970. During this time there was a huge influx of poor African American workers to Chicago who arrived escaping the segregation and discrimination that existed in southern states of the USA and seeking employment in the industrial cities of the north. Of course these migrants brought a huge wave of culture to the city and the musical traditions of Jazz and Blues arrived with them. In Chicago these music forms developed and evolved and Chicago came to be known as a center for what people called Chicago Blues and Chicago-Style or Dixieland Jazz. Some of the most famous blues musicians of all time are from the city of Chicago such as Muddy Waters and Howling Wolf and Chicago Blues which generally featured electrically amplified Guitars, bass guitars, drums and piano, was an important step and influence in the development of what we know as Rockn Roll Music. In the 1960s and 1970s Chicaco was also a centre for soul music which also found its way up to the city from the southern states of the USA. Artists like Curtis Mayfield, The Staple Singers, Earth Wind and Fire and Chaka Khan are all children of Chicago. Another type of music that was created and is synonymous with Chicago is House music or Chicago house as its also known. House music these days is at the center of modern day dance music and its influence is directly responsible for most of the music we hear in clubs all over the world. House music started when DJs like Frankie Knuckles and Ron Hardy started playing Disco music and early European electronic music in Chicago nightclubs with a focus on the repetitive and rhythmic drum and bass elements in each track. Soon local producers like Marshall Jefferson started recording their own DIY versions of the music they were hearing in clubs and House music was born. Chicago House music that can be identified by a steady 4 to the floor beat made with drum machines, synthesized basslines and melodies, soulful vocals and samples. But the original format of house music has been developed and evolved into countless forms of dance music such as techno, trance, dance pop and bass music. In more recent times, one of the most famous artists to have come out of the city is Kanye West, who has done huge things in terms of putting Chicago on the map when it comes to Hip Hop in the USA. Finally, we end this episode of City Scenes with a look at the current day DIY inde guitar rock scene that is currently flourishing in the city. Bands like Friko and lifeguard, Post Office Winter and Horsegirl are part of an exciting new wave of young talented musicians that are currently putting out music, playing house shows and supporting each other as a scene. We would recommend diving into all of their music to hear what all the noise is about. Next week we`ll be back for another City Scenes with the letter D and we will be going 4 hours down the road to Detroit

Country Music legend Freddy Powers, credited with introducing Dixieland Jazz into Country for the first time, is affectionately known as the 'Ol Blue Eyes' of Country Music, according to the L.A. Times, & if you were to "ask country superstars Willie Nelson, George Jones, or Merle Haggard (they'll)...tell you that he's one of country music's best-kept secrets." That secret is spilled for the first time on paper in Powers' highly-entertaining and emotionally-touching page-turner "THE SPREE OF '83 - The Life and Times of Freddy Powers (with Exclusive Commentary from Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard)." Taking readers from the plains of West Texas into the Marine Core in the 40s before winding up in Arlington, TX alongside Willie Nelson as undiscovered artists in the early 50s before Freddy's career as one of Nevada's TOP performing acts exploded over the 1960s and '70s before landing in the studio with Willie Nelson to produce the Grammy-winning 1980 Over the Rainbow album. His career got even hotter in the 1980s when he joined forces with another country music superstar, Merle Haggard, moving up to Lake Shasta in Northern California, where the 2 lived a truly rock & roll lifestyle on houseboats during the height of the roaring 80s, writing # 1 hit after # 1 hit, including "Natural High," "Let's Chase Each Other Around the Room Tonight," "I Always Get Lucky With You," among many more.  Visit the official website by clicking on Freddy's website.   US Air Times: 11:00 am EST, 10:00 am CST, 9:00 am MST, and 8:00 am PST.

Bruce: Before we get to our main focus of the day, Jazz, let's take a look at the music word of the day: Improvisation!   Bill: Improvisation is a fancy smancy word for making something up on the spot.   Bruce: The word improvisation can be used for a variety of art forms. We can see improvisation in drama and comedy, dance and of course…. Music.   Bill: You can improvise when playing jazz, blues, and many other genres.   Bruce: In the 1500s through the 1700s there were many performers entertaining people in the streets of Italy. Performers would come up with a basic storyline, but mainly make up the parts during the performance   Bill: That’s right they would improvise!  A mime is a popular type of street actor and will typically improvise while interacting with the crowd.   Bruce:  Dancers will also improvise quite a bit. Break dancing is usually completely improvised during a performance. A dancer may have some ideas….. but the order in which they perform the dance moves are improvised.   Bill:  The tango also relies on improvisation and is encouraged. Many of the moves ARE practiced but, high-level of dancers also use improvisation.   Bruce: Ok, onto Music. Music can be improvised in a variety of styles. Let's take a look at jazz. Listen to this sample of a saxophone performing with drums, piano, and bass. The saxophone in this section does not have any music notes to read…he is just making them up! That is improvisation!    Bill: Next is the blues: take a listen to the piano player improvising with the 12 bar blues……. Nothing is written down. He is just performing anything he wants!   Bruce: In rock music, we often hear the electric guitar taking a solo. Let's take a listen…..  At that point, the guitar player is given the opportunity to play whatever he wants. He had to practice a lot to become this good.    Bill: Awesome! And that’s the:   Together: “Music Word of the Day!”   Thank you so much for listening. We hope you are enjoying the show so far. Please subscribe to the podcast to receive the latest episodes and leave a review through iTunes or wherever you get your podcasts. Also, get updates on what we are up to through Facebook and Instagram by finding us at Music Podcast for Kids. Links will be found in the show notes. On to the show!   And now, the main subject of the day.   Bill: Jazz came about a long time ago in New Orleans from African American communities during the 19th and 20th centuries. That’s over 100 years ago!   Bruce: Jazz music typically has a swinging beat…..like this (drums play). That is what gave jazz its unique sound and style.   Bill: There are many different styles of jazz, so let’s take a journey from the beginning to now. To the music time machine!!!   Br: Wait, you have a music time machine?   Bill: Yessir, Mr. Fite. Check it out, it’s the Time Travelling Honda Civic 3000.   Br: No way, the Time Travelling Honda Civic 3000.   Bill: You bet ya, 4 cylinders or pure time travel. It can go 0-60 in about a hundred years….ago… wait that doesn’t sound quite righ…..   Bruce: (looking inside) Oh cool, it has cup holders and everything.   Bill: Oh yeah it does. Ok, let's get in. Start this bad boy up, punch in the time 1910. New Orleans.   1910:  New Orleans. Dixieland Jazz. Yes, this is where it all started. Typically you would hear instruments like the trumpet, trombone, clarinet with a rhythm section. The rhythm section would have at least two of the following instruments:  guitar or banjo, upright string bass, piano, and drums.   Bruce: Pretty cool stuff. Love that Dixieland sound. Do you think we could stop for some Gumbo…I’m kinda hungry.   Bill: Oh no, we have no time to waste!   Bruce: No time to waste? But we are in a time machine. We have all the time in the world!   Bill: No, no we must get to the next destination. The 1930’s. Swing Bands! (dials in) and gooooooooooo    Bill: In the 1930s big band swing was rockin. It was created for people to dance to! The band grew bigger with more trumpets, trombones, saxophones and definitely had a rhythm section. The rhythm section included the piano, bass, drums, and sometimes guitar.   Bruce: Good stuff. It definitely makes me want to dance.   Bill: Yeah me too! Ok, onto the next stop! The 1940’s! Wooooahahahhhhhahah   Bill: In the 1940s bebop arrived. Bebop has super fast tempos. Tempo is the speed of music and Bebop was the fastest out there.   Bruce: It was created by musicians who were looking to perform challenging music. Dizzy Gillespie was well known for getting the bebop style of jazz in place.     Bill: They would have to practice and play a bunch to get that fast! Wow!   Bruce: That is the fastest playing I’ve ever heard.   Bill: I know right! Ok, the next stop is a little later in the 1940s…when the music chilled out a little.   Bruce: Oh chilled out…. Does that mean we can stop for ice cream?   Bill: Ice cream? No no no, ok let me punch in the numbers. Here we goooooo!   Bill: Later in the 1940s, Cool Jazz was born. Cool jazz is a calmer, slower, and smoother sound. They would hold notes out longer, and longer and longer and…. Hey, do you think you could end that note there? How is he holding that note for so long? (music stops). Oh, well thank you. Miles Davis was well known for his cool jazz trumpet solos.   Bruce: That is pretty….cool (drum set hit)   Bill: Yes, Mr. Bruce, thank you for that. Ok onto the 1950s! Goooooooooo   Bill: In the 1950s, free jazz was introduced.   Bruce: Free jazz? You mean no one paid for it anymore?   Bill: Oh no no. People paid for it all right. Free Jazz has an unusual sound for many reasons… but one reason is because of the different meters. So for example, if we listen to this swing beat and I count to four, it fits perfectly (1234)…but in free jazz, you may hear something like this….the meter could change from 3 to 4 to 5…all over the place. Let's listen. That would allow musicians to freely play anything they want, and experiment with different sounds, progressions, melodies, and so on. They were thinking outside the music box.   Bruce: You mean they used a music box in free jazz? (music box plays)   Bill: Oh boy…No no no… I mean…oh forget it. Let's move on. It’s time to get to the 1960s! Woooooahhhhhhh.   Bill: In the 1960s-70 jazz fusion or sometimes called “jazz-rock” fusion was born.   Scientist (In a scientist's voice) Ah yes, fusion. Is the process of combining two or more distinct entities into a new whole. For example, binaural fusion (drops the background) is the cognitive process of combining the auditory information received by both ears. Nuclear fusion: multiple atomic nuclei joining to form a nucleus lighter than the combined input nuclei. Or Cold fusion, a hypothesized type of nuclear reaction that would occur at or near room temperature…   Bill: Hey who is this guy?   Bruce: Oh, that’s my scientist buddy babbling about fusion again.   Bill: Hey, um Mr. Scientist guy… um well, we are talking about Jazz Fusion…not Binaural fusion.   Scientist: Jazz Fusion? Hmmmmm? Interesting.   Bill: Ok, the word fusion deals with mixing two things together. So during this time, rock and jazz music were mixed together to create what we know as fusion. Fusion focused around improvisation and used rock and electronic instruments heavily. Ready for the next stop?   Bruce: You betcha!   Bill: What about your scientist friend?   Bruce: Oh he will be OK here…I think he is going to study more about jazz fusion.   Bill: Well Ok! To the ’80s. Here we gooooooooooooo.   Bill: In the 1980s, smooth jazz was introduced. Many times the saxophone played the melody with a sweet smooth sound.     Bruce: Artists like Kenny G, the yellowjackets, and many more were popular during this time. Onto the 2000s! Woooooahhhhhh!   Bill: In the 2000s- Latin and Afro Cuban jazz were being performed and could be highly rhythmic using a variety of percussion instruments and sounds like the drum set with cowbell, woodblocks.    Bruce: Woah those are some cool sounds!   Bill: Super cool! Welp, I guess it’s about time to travel on back. Back to the fu…   Bruce: Woah I think I just saw the younger version of myself! Wow, I looked so young….and   Bill: Come on Mr. Bruce. Back into the Time Travelling Honda Civic 3000. Gotta learn about what's cookin' in the jazz world now! Woooooahahhhahahahaha.   Bruce: Nowadays we find all types of jazz music. Kids and adults learn how to play the earlier jazz music and combine all different styles together. You may even have a jazz band in your elementary, middle, or high school!  Phew, we learned a lot about the history of jazz today.   Bill: We sure did.   Bruce: What’s your favorite style of jazz?   Bill: Oh tough to say, I do like them all. Bebop is fun to listen to, though…all those fast notes! What about you Mr. Bruce?   Bruce: Welp…I’d have to say cool jazz.   Bill: Oh yeah, well why is that?   Bruce: Because it keeps me thinking about ice cream…specifically mint chocolate chip ice cream .it’s the best…the cool minty taste with the combination of a sugar cone on a hot day just chillin’ to the cool jazz   Bill: Oh boy….

I don't think you can really give your ears a test Mr. Henry. I mean how do your ears hold a pencil without bleeding? Oh no Mr. Fite, when I say test your ears I mean listening to something and trying to figure it out through hearing it. Oh right of course. Time to play the music podcast for kids super duper music listening challenge. A little bit long of a title? We’ll have to work it out. Okay onto the challenge.   For today's challenge, we are going to listen to some jazz music and you have to figure out which style of jazz it is. I will give you two options. Here is number 1. Is this Cool Jazz or Dixieland Jazz? Number 2 is this Free Jazz or Swing Jazz? Number 3. Is this Jazz Fusion or Afro Cuban Jazz? and number 4. Is this Dixieland Jazz or Bebop? To check your answers, go to the show notes. We hope you did an awesome job    Just Chattin’: So Bruce we talked about jazz and the different styles. Have you ever played in a jazz band? Yes, but I wouldn't call myself a jazz musician. When I was in college they had a jazz band and they welcomed me into the group. I played guitar and it was really kind of learning on the job. Like they didn’t expect much which was kind of nice. It lowered the pressure. But they taught me a lot. They challenged me with the scales in the playing the standards. That was something I appreciated that we played a lot of the jazz standards. Coltrane, things like that. Cool and soloing and you would do solos? Yeah, and they had me do some solos. It was just to kind of feel that pressure of you know you're on. And you know whatever. I had a professor that talked about making mistakes and he used to say when you improvise you really don't make mistakes yeah you just made a decision you didn't think you were going to make and you keep on moving. And it was kind of nice because I think it kind of took the pressure off oh I messed up a note or whatever. Music can be so precise. Improv is just like having a conversation. You mess up a word or whatever, but no big deal. yeah, you just keep going yeah yeah. How about you? We did have a jazz band towards the end of my high school career and I played the drum set in that band. That was fun you know just playing standards. It was a very small school so there weren't many of us. Then in college, I auditioned for piano and drums and was lucky enough to play both of those. So I would actually kind of like switch off in between songs. Wow yeah. And then towards the end of the college career, I was starting to play in so they had a big band and then they had an octet which was just eight players. And so I was able to play drums for that and then sometimes would play piano as well. But then we got a good friend of mine, he was a really good piano player and jazz piano player. And also he was always the guy doing the piano on that which is really cool. So which was nice for me because I like playing the drums too. So it was really cool playing with him. So in and then we would actually play,  the three of us there was him, which was Phil and myself and a kid named Ben who's a really good bass player. And we started to kind of play some stuff just the three of us. Like a trio. It was a lot of fun. And then even today the band I play with we play pop music but we did a lot of jazz stuff as well. Just standards and that was a trio. then we had a saxophone player right so yeah. Speaking of good players, my wife and I, we had an opportunity to go to Puerto Rico for a couple of days. It was a gift someone gave us. And a guy there has a restaurant called a piano bar and he toured with the Beach Boys for ten years and when he retired from that he opened up his own restaurant. We came in and played. Like we were sitting there like oh my goodness and he was phenomenal. All original music, original jazz. And he actually used a melodica keyboard. He had it set up on top doing the left-hand right. It was so it was really cool to see right there in front of you. Like this guy who traveled the world, he was just so relaxed. I love what you said about the improv part of jazz because that is like it's so much fun to do and you don't really think about it differently than you know making sure you get all the notes right. so yeah good stuff. Love it.   Time to wrap it up, folks! Thank you so much for tuning in to the Music Podcast for Kids. We hope you enjoyed the show, and most importantly, learned something cool today about music.

Making a Scene Presents an interview with Andy Cohen!Andy Cohen grew up in a house with a piano and a lot of Dixieland Jazz records, amplified after a while by a cornet that his dad got him. At about fifteen, he got bitten by the Folk Music bug, and soon got to hear records by Big Bill Broonzy and the Jim Kweskin Jug Band, both of which reminded him of the music he grew up to. At sixteen, he saw Reverend Gary Davis, and his course was set. He knew he had it in him to follow, study, perform and promote the music of the southeast quadrant, America’s great musical fountainhead. Although he’s done other things, a certain amount of writing and physical labor from dishwashing and railroading to archeology, playing the old tunes is what he does best. Andy Cohen,Talkin' Casey,Tryin' To Get HomeAndy Cohen,Death Don't Have No Mercy,Tryin' To Get Homemakingascene,andy cohen,Andy Cohen & Moira Meltzer-Cohen,Talkin' Casey,Small But MightyAndy Cohen & Moira Meltzer-Cohen,Boob-I-Lak,Small But Mighty 

"Apply what you learn [online] and actually do something—even if it's not for making money—just make something. Do something with what you're learning and practice it." Matt Halfhill, founder of Nice Nicks, is not a monolith or a cliche ‘sneakerhead’. The son of college professors who moved to California from the Midwest, Matt played in a Dixieland Jazz band as a kid, fell in love with sneakers in the Caribbean in Grenada, and dropped out of college to start the Internet’s first-ever sneaker blog. Today, what started as a blog has become a digital media brand that is one of the most trusted in the footwear industry with over 4 million followers on Instagram. From experimenting with web development in the late 90s to learning to sell overstocked sneakers on eBay from his first job, Matt developed a love of technology and digital communication as a youth. Halfhill joins MoS to discuss the story of Nice Kicks, its mission to be inlusive of all folks wanting to become a fan of sneakers no matter their level of knowledge about the industry, as well as how the company has evolved over the years. We discuss the shift of content marketing from brands, what it was like to open and then later popular brick-and-mortar sneaker shop, as well as why news is a commodity and our voice is all we have to sell that is truly unique when it comes to building a digital media brand. Matt's love of sneakers and his hacker-like mentality for figuring things out has led to a lifelong career in a billion dollar niche at the intersection of sport, culture and fashion. Listen along as Matt shares the story of NiceKicks.com.

Patti Page, a massive selling artist in the 1950s, on a Trutone South African label record. George Hall and his Orch, vocals by Dolly Dawn. Ella Fitzgerald, no less, credits Dolly as an influence. Dolly eventually took over the orchestra and it become Dolly and her Dawn patrol.

Original Dixieland Jazz Band, 1918, and Scotlands first internation super star Harry Lauder from 1913. My personal favorite and new discovery, Australian Lorrae Desmond. A cracking, Stanley Black orchestrated, track. Delighted to say she's still with us. There's more of course.

Our second episode brings us to a small town in the Northern part of the U.S. where we, surprisingly, find a deep Blues history. We follow Paramount Records through the peak of success, recording landmark artists that changed Western popular music forever, but this music, at several times, was almost lost forever. We follow the thin thread of events and recent efforts that have gone into preserving this important musical history.   Here’s an external link to every Musical Mention in this episode: 0:50 Muddy Waters 0:51 B.B King 0:54 Blind Lemon Jefferson 0:56 Charley Patton 0:57 Skip James 1:09 Blues 1:12 Africa 1:50 Skip James 2:03 Big Bill Broonzy 2:07 Bill Big Broonzy: The Man That Brought The Blues to Britain 2:14 Paramount Records 3:44 Jazz 3:55 Johann Sebastian Bach 3:55 Ludwig Van Beethoven 3:55 Johannes Brahms 3:59 Franz Joseph Haydn 3:59 Wenzel Müller 3:59 Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart 4:06 Vaudevillan Performers 4:08 Dixieland Jazz 4:10 Creole Music 4:14 Military Bands 4:49 Al Jolson 6:11 Pop music 6:19 Wisconsin Chair Company 6:28 Phonographs 7:21 Alex Van Der Tuuk 7:31 Paramount’s Rise and Fall 7:55 Classical Music (Western) 8:05 Vaudeville 8:10 Country Music 8:37 Mamie Smith 8:38 Crazy Blues 9:09 Race Records 10:10 J.

In 1986, a group of Northeast Ohio jazz fans led by Jean and Paul Huling formed a club called EARLYJAS (The Earlville Association of Ragtime Lovers Yearning for Jazz Advancement and Socialization). For well over 20 years, EARLYJAS presented a very successful and popular Fall Dixieland Jazz Festival in Strongsville, Ohio. Unfortunately, due to a lack of volunteers and the potential for major financial losses, their Board of Trustees voted to discontinue the Fall Festival after 2011. EARLYJAS accomplished a great deal in the cause of presenting traditional Dixieland jazz over the previous 25 years, and made considerable contributions to the Summit County Kidney Foundation. Today the club is financially stronger than ever, and they continue to host monthly meetings, concerts, and jam sessions. But after 25 years, they decided to no longer produce the Strongsville festival. Learning of this decision, “Ragtime Rick” Grafing, piano player with the Cakewalkin’ Jass Band and leader of The Chefs of Dixieland, agreed to produce a new festival to replace the one in Strongsville, to be held in Toledo. It is known as the GRUGELFEST, a tribute and memorial to EARLYJAS member Ralph Grugel, leader of the Eagle Jazz Band, who died in 2005. Ralph Grugel was a major force in Cleveland’s Dixieland Jazz community. GRUGELFEST features 5 great bands over 3 days in 2 venues for each session, plus additional performances by world-class piano players, small groups, and jam sessions. From 2012 to 2016 it was held at the Park Inn by Radisson Hotel in downtown Toledo; in 2017 the festival moved to the Holiday Inn French Quarter in Perrysburg. Special room rates are offered for the weekend.

A multi-instrumentalist and music academic, Crimmins writes songs and arrangements for a classic New Orleans style horn section.

Johnette Downing is an award-winning singer and songwriter of music for kids. A New Orleans native, and the daughter of musical parents, Downing felt the call to perform since she was in kindergarten. “In fact, my first performance I was in kindergarten,” Downing said. “I sang in the school play. And I was very shy, and the teacher thought, ‘Well, there’s no way this child is going to get up and sing.’ So she called my mother, she said, ‘She wanted to be the lead,’ and my mother said, ‘She’ll do it, she can do it.’ And I did. I was really shy, but I could sing in front of a whole audience.” Downing said her parents exposed their kids to music at an early age because they loved music so much. “They would bring us down to the French Quarter and we would stand in the doorways of jazz clubs and listen to Dixieland Jazz,” she said. “I mean, we’re so fortunate to live in Louisiana and have all this music right here in our front yard.” Around the seventh grade Downing wanted a guitar, so her
