Jazz releases these day fight a game of inches.  Almost everybody releasing music in the genre is technically accomplished and the rules have been laid out so long that almost everybody knows how to meet the listener's basic expectations.   What makes an album stand out in the flood of new music unleashed every week?  Sometimes it's as simple (and hard to define) as a sense of intensity, commitment, energy.  These four 2024 releases all demonstrate that quality to one degree or another.  Erik Friedlander – DIRTY BOXING: Deron Johnson – FREE TO DANCE; Michael Eaton – THE PHENOMINAL; Basher – MAY DAY.

Abrimos este número 04.2022 con el recuerdo al vibrafonista Khan Jamal, uno de los músicos que nos han dejado en este triste inicio de 2022. Para recordarlo, hemos escuchado el proyecto artístico y social Sounds Of Liberation, de cuya agrupación musical formó parte Khan Jamal, a través de New Horizons, publicado en 1972. La primera pincelada de jazz Contemporáneo fue Sentinel, uno de los últimos trabajos del cellista y contrabajista Erik friedlander, publicado en 2020. En nuestra sección Jazz en Español, recordamos también al trístemente fallecido Miguel Ángel Chastang, figura clave y pionera del Jazz de nuestro país y del crecimiento y desarrollo del género en la capital, Madrid. Para recordarlo, lo escuchamos en directo junto a su quinteto, en su ambiente, en el café Central de Madrid, en esta grabación del año 2001. Nuestra segunda mirada al Jazz Contemporáneo fue a través del nuevo trabajo del multi instrumentista Greg Abate y su proyección sobre el universo del pianista Kenny Barron, en Magic Dance: The Music of Kenny Barron. Y cerraremos de vuelta a nuestro Clásico de la Semana, el recuerdo al vibrafonista Khan Jamal.

Over the past two months, packed cities have been repeatedly blamed for the rapid spread of coronavirus. Meanwhile, in jails and prisons, incarcerated people have been contracting the virus at alarming rates, in no small part due to their own overcrowded conditions.

Possibly, more than any other instrument, the saxophone defines the sound of jazz. Most jazz combos have at least one sax player on the front—and when you see that saxophone, you know it’s going to be doing a LOT of soloing, even if the bandleader or composer plays another instrument. But what happens to the shape and texture of jazz when you subtract the sax from the equation? We’ll find out in this episode of Mondo Jazz, featuring Jaimie Branch, Allison Miller, Erik Friedlander, John Zorn, Marvin Pontiac, Tenderlonious, Jeremy Steig, Clark Gayton, John Scofield, Tronzo Trio, Michael Rossetto, Bill Frisell, Jenny Scheinman, Makaya McCraven.

We hang out with Shoko Nagai and Satoshi Takeshi and hear tracks from her amazing TOKALA project...    Shoko Nagai is a versatile musical artist who improvises and performs with world-renowned musicians on piano and accordion and composes original scores for films and live performances. As a teenager in her native Japan, Nagai was trained on Yamaha's electronic organ, the "Electone," to perform popular music. Since moving to the U.S. from Japan and studying classical and jazz music at Berklee, she has adapted her mastery of the keyboard to prepared piano, accordions, the melodica and other instruments, often inspired by the minimalist approach of composer Takemitsu Toru. Whether she is performing Klezmer, Balkan or experimental music, Nagai is a charismatic presence onstage, who hypnotizes audiences with her intense focus and virtuoso sound. Since moving to New York in 1999 she has been dubbed an "MVP" of the downtown jazz scene, performing with John Zorn, Erik Friedlander, Ikue Mori, Marc Ribot, Frank London, Matana Roberts, Miho Hatori (Cibo Matto), Satoshi Takeishi, Butch Morris, Elliot Sharp, Jeremiah Lockwood and many eclectic performers. Nagai frequently tours internationally, performing in Sweden (2009 Nobel Prize ceremony for German writer, Herta Muller), Italy (Napoli Teatro Festival 2015), Austria (Saalffelden Jazz Festival 2014), France (Banlieues Bleues 2012), Switzerland (Rote Fabrik 2012), Holland (Bimhuis 2012),  Japan (Fuji Rock Festival 2012), Israel (Romanian Institute 2011), Canada (Suoni Popolo Festival 2008), Germany (Moers Jazz festival 2007), and Brazil (resfest 2007) and in the U.S. (Newport Jazz Festival 2015, Saratoga Jazz Festival 2008). She has received grants from JazzJants (Painted Bride Arts Center) in 2008 and the New York Foundation for the Arts in 2010. Nagai's compositions for films include, L'amour Cache (2007), directed by Alessandro Capone and conducted by Butch Morris, as well as a trio of films directed by Linda Hoaglund: ANPO: Art X War (2010 Toronto, DOC NYC, Vancouver, and Hong Kong film festivals), Things Left Behind, (2012) produced by Japan's national broadcaster, NHK, and The Wound and The Gift, narrated by Vanessa Redgrave (Vancouver, DOC NYC, Tokyo FilmX 2014). CARE (2016 DOC NYC, AFI DOCS, Sheffield Doc Fest, Reelworld Impact Award) directed by Diredre Fishel   “Connection beyond genre and contrasting elements, in quest for the essence” is what Japanese-born musician/improviser Satoshi Takeishi strives for in his performances, whether behind a drum set, a hybrid percussion set or computer-based electronics.  With over 30 years’ experience in live performances and recording sessions around the world, executing in styles of Jazz, Rock, Contemporary Classical, Avant Garde, Experimental Electronic, Latin, South American, Arabic and African music, Takeishi moves among diverse musical environments. Rather than a specialist of any one style, Takeishi constantly strives for an integration of his diverse musical experience and knowledge. 

On the verge of releasing his first recording of chamber music, the best dude around, Trevor Dunn, returns to the podcast for a second go-round on the mics. Living in Brooklyn since 2000 Trevor has been a key figure in dozens of projects led by John Zorn, Mike Patton, Erik Friedlander, Kris Davis and many many more. Now at the age of 51, he is embarking on a series of releases of his own projects. For this talk we cover a lot of ground: being a sideman, compositional process, Ornette Coleman, film-scoring, the Fyre Festival and a lot lot more. It's a good time to be a Trevor Dunn fan.

This week, Nancy is featuring an episode of Radiolab Presents: Gonads. A lot of us understand biological sex with a pretty fateful underpinning: if you’re born with XX chromosomes, you’re female; if you’re born with XY chromosomes, you’re male. But it turns out, our relationship to the opposite sex is more complicated than we think. This episode was reported by Molly Webster, and produced by Matt Kielty. With scoring, original composition and mixing by Matt Kielty and Alex Overington. Additional production by Rachael Cusick, and editing by Pat Walters. The “Ballad of Daniel Webster” and “Gonads” was written, performed and produced by Majel Connery and Alex Overington. Special thanks to Erica Todd, Andrew Sinclair, Robin Lovell-Badge, and Sarah S. Richardson. Plus, a big thank you to the musicians who gave us permission to use their work in this episode—composer Erik Friedlander, for "Frail as a Breeze, Part II," and musician Sam Prekop, whose work "A Geometric," from his album The Republic, is out on Thrill Jockey. Radiolab is supported in part by Science Sandbox, a Simons Foundation initiative dedicated to engaging everyone with the process of science. And the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, enhancing public understanding of science and technology in the modern world. More information about Sloan at www.sloan.org. Nancy theme by Alex Overington. Support our work!

#NeverAgain es un grito de resistencia que resuena en estos tiempos convulsos en Estados Unidos con Trump en la presidencia. El nuevo trabajo del guitarrista Marc Ribot con Ceramic Dog, el trío que comparte con el bajista Shahzad Ismaily y el baterista Ches Smith, se pregunta "YRU Still here?". En esta edición de 'Club de Jazz' del 22 de marzo de 2018, adelantamos algunos de los temas que forman parte del disco, que sale a la venta en abril. Recibimos llamada desde Londres. Fernando Ortiz de Urbina dedica su "London Calling" al pianista, compositor y productor Heiner Stadler, que falleció el pasado 18 de febrero. Fernando recupera un dúo de 1973 entre la cantante Dee Dee Bridgewater y el contrabajista Reggie Workman y una grabación en sexteto, con músicos como Thad Jones (tp) y George Lewis (tb), registrada en 1978. En los "Ritmos Latinos" de Anxo, un proyecto vocal polaco de los años 70, los Novi Singers, y el tributo que el vibrafonista Steve Hobbs le dedica al recientemente fallecido Bobby Hutcherson. La cantante portuguesa Sara Serpa explora los lenguajes de la voz en "Close Up", un retrato en primer plano de su vida a través de la improvisación, la literatura, el cine y la filosofía, en compañía de Erik Friedlander (chelo) e Ingrid Laubrock (saxo tenor).

I’ve encountered plenty of musicians who’ve made me come around on certain songs and even musical genres, but off the top of my head, I can only think of one who’s caused me to rethink an instrument I’d largely written off. It’s not that I’ve ever been averse to the cello, it’s just that, in all my years of music listening, I’d rarely given the instrument a second thought. Erik Friedlander first came onto my radar by way of the Mountain Goats, opening and playing alongside Johns Darnielle and Vanderslice at the old Knitting Factory in Manhattan, plucking and bowing on the band’s then-recent LP, The Sunset Tree. Over the years, his work has continued to surprise me, jumping around from modern classical to avant-garde jazz and playing alongside music pioneers like John Zorn and Laurie Anderson. It’s Friedlander’s solo work I’ve been most taken with, however, most notably Block Ice & Propane, a jaunty sort of tribute to the RV trips he’d taken across the country with his parents as a youth and last year’s Claws & Wings, which plumbed the opposite end of the emotional spectrum, as the artist coped with the recent death of his wife of 22 years, dancer and poet Lynn Shapiro. I met up with Friedlander in his Manhattan apartment to life, loss and the cello over a couple of cups of tea.
