Mingus, Monk and Me | hr-Bigband feat. Bill Frisell cond. by Michael Gibbs, 39. Deutsches Jazzfestival Frankfurt, Hessischer Rundfunk, hr-Sendesaal, Oktober 2008 | Er ist einer der musikalisch schillerndsten Gitarristen im zeitgenössischen Jazz. Country, Folk, Blues, Americana, New Yorker Downtown Eruptionen - Bill Frisell hat mit seiner Art Jazz zu spielen keine Berührungsängste. Beim Deutschen Jazzfestival in Frankfurt traf er im Oktober 2008 seinen Studienkollegen vom Berklee College of Music in Boston wieder, Michael Gibbs. Der Wunsch des Orchesterleiters und Arrangeurs, endlich einmal extra für Frisell zu arrangieren: Stücke, die ihm auf den Leib geschrieben sind und ihn als Solisten featuren, wurde auf dem Frankfurter Festival mit "Mingus, Monk & Me" Realität. (Sendung vom 2.2.)

How do you capture what is so special about Bill Frisell's guitar playing in one episode? Is it his melodies, his unique chord voicings, his rhythmic concept, his revolutionary approach to pedals and sounds…? It's all of that and much more. Jason and Nick talk about each of their five favorite Frisell recordings, talk about some other far-out Frisell recordings, and keep talking about their favorite records that didn't make the list. Our hosts convene a Frisell fan club of sorts, with help from guitarists Mary Halvorson and Mike Baggetta, and luthier Creston Lea.This episode is sponsored by Collings Guitars: https://collingsguitars.com/Get at us: 100guitarists@premierguitar.com Call/Text: 319-423-9734Podcast powered by Sweetwater.

Gitarrist Bill Frisell mit "FOUR" beim 55. Deutschen Jazzfestival Frankfurt 2024 || Kaum einer verkörpert den Gegenentwurf zur virtuosen Kraftmeierei so unwiderstehlich wie Gitarrist Bill Frisell. Seine Kunst, mit wenigen Tönen viel zu sagen und mit kleinen Mitteln weite Assoziationsräume zu öffnen, macht ihn einzigartig und zu einem der stilprägenden Gitarristen des Jazz. Zu den Höhepunkten des diesjährigen Deutschen Jazzfestivals Frankfurt gehört sicher der Auftritt mit seinem Projekt "FOUR". Sonst vorzugsweise vom Solo bis zum Trio unterwegs, brachte Frisell sein aktuelles Quartettalbum wieder näher an einen jazzgemäßen Ensemble-Sound. Der Vorverkauf zum diesjährigen Deutschen Jazzfestival läuft seit dem 5. Juni, alle Infos auf hr2.de (Sendung vom 26.6.)

Henrik Frisell satt Norge på verdenskartet da han ble den første norske finansdirektøren i FNs gruppe for CFOer som jobber for å nå bærekraftsmålene. Han er CFO for Nortura, Norges største produsent av egg og kjøtt. Henrik spiller derfor en avgjørende rolle for å sikre at 90% av Norges egg- og kjøttbehov dekkes på en bærekraftig måte – fra det han på “godt norsk” forklarer som farm to fork. Men hvordan kan egentlig bærekraft gå hånd i hånd med lønnsomhet i en tid der matindustrien står overfor globale utfordringer når det kommer til nettopp; bærekraft?Vil du bli bedre kjent med våre CFO services?

Now-retired opera stage director Sonja Frisell capped her astounding career in 2017, when at age 80 in Muscat, Oman, with the touring Rossini Opera Festival of Pesaro, she restaged Jean Pierre-Ponnelle's 1987 production of a little known one-act opera, L'Occasione fa il Ladro (“Opportunity makes the thief”). She had been a protégé of Ponnelle, so who better?But it was in 1989 when the Metropolitan Opera debuted her production of Verdi's Aida with its hieroglyphics and torchlight temples designed by Gianni Quar-an-ta, that she left her mark. It was a production that lasted 34 years, having been retired in the 2023 season. I attended one of the final performances and can testify to its lasting durability. It never lost its originality. Nor did it appear like a postcard from Cairo. It was like nothing ever presented on the Met's stage. It wasn't just the glorious triumphal scene celebrating the Egyptian victory over the Ethiopians, but every scene, where every movement had meaning. This was not just a spectacular opera; it was an opera produced by a director who from her youth studied Egypt, despite her mother's admonition that such was not suitable for a young girl.
Listen to a set from contemporary jazz guitar legend guitarist Bill Frisell, together with guitarist, bassist, and vocalist Luke Bergman. Frisell is a singular player in the jazz world, consistently sticking to his roots and American folk, while trying out any other thing that may move him. Bergman is, in Frisell's words, “a master harmonizer, organizer, orchestrator, imaginator” (Program notes, Grace Cathedral). Together they swapped musical ideas remotely during the pandemic and composed a number of pieces. Listen to some of those tunes, including “Waltz for Hal Wilner” from his 2022 album, Four (Blue Note), and other works. - Caryn Havlik Set list: 1. "Claude Utley" 2. "Let Them Ring" 3. "Fathers Day" 4. "Canon" 5. "Waltz for Hal Wilner"

Wikipedia says Bill Frisell “is an American jazz guitarist.” Well they got “American” and “guitarist” right. Frisell has indeed played jazz, but also country, rock, folk, West African, classical, and lots of less easily defined styles of music. Widely considered to be one of the great guitarists of our time, he is the subject of a new biography called Bill Frisell: Beautiful Dreamer. He plays solo acoustic in The Greene Space as part of the 2022 New York Guitar Festival. - John Schaefer Set list: Look Out for Hope, Blues from Before, Strange Meeting, Waltz For Hal Willner Watch the set:
Monica Jane Frisell & Adam Scher have been driving around the United States in a truck, hauling a custom trailer that they've converted into a darkroom and office. At each stop, they're recording stories and taking portraits of the locals, compiling them for their series, "Portrait of US." This month, the pair have brought "the Ark" to Savannah as part of the On::View Residency at Sulfur Studios, and we're delighted to share our Field Note with them for this week's episode of Art on the Air! As a special bonus, Frisell and Scher have sent us four stories that they've recorded during their travels that we'll be airing during the second half of the episode, powerful tales of moments that have had a profound impact on the person doing the telling. Simply put, a can't miss episode!

This episode of Across The Margin: The Podcast presents an interview with journalist and author Philip Watson. Philip worked for a number of years at GQ, where he was deputy editor, and Esquire, where he was editor-at-large. He has been freelance for the past decade or more, contributing articles and features to many publications in Britain, Ireland and the US, including the Guardian, Telegraph Magazine, Sunday Times, Observer, Irish Times, London Evening Standard, Travel + Leisure, and music magazine The Wire. His most recent work Beautiful Dreamers: The Guitarist Who Changed The Sound of American Music — the focus of this episode — is the definitive biography of guitar icon and Grammy Award-winning artist, Bill Frisell, featuring exclusive interviews with Paul Simon, Bon Iver and more. Over a period of forty-five years, Bill Frisell has established himself as one of the most innovative musicians at work today. A quietly revolutionary guitar hero for our genre-blurring times, he has synthesized many disparate musical elements — from jazz to pop, folk to film music, ambient to avant-garde, country to classical — into one compellingly singular sound. Described as “the favorite guitarist of many people who agree on little else in music,” Frisell connects to a diverse range of artists and admirers, including Paul Simon, Elvis Costello, Lucinda Williams, and Bon Iver. Everybody loves Bill Frisell. Through unprecedented access, and interviews with his close family, friends and collaborators, Philip Watson tells the story of why. In this episode host Michael Shields and Philip Watson discuss Frisell's many music influences that have contributed to inspiring his signature sound while conversing upon how coming of age in Denver helped shape him musically as well. They explore the many mentors Frisell had throughout his musical journey, talk about what Frisell is like personally, consider the immense impact Frisell has had on a bevy of notable musicians, and much much more.Grab a copy of Beautiful Dreamers: The Guitarist Who Changed The Sound of American Music here!Listen to a Bill Frisell Playlist by Philip Watson here!

Bill Frisell is an American jazz guitarist, composer, and arranger who the New York Times has called “The most significant and widely imitated guitarist to emerge in jazz since the beginning of the 1980s.” In 2005, Frisell was awarded the Grammy for Best Contemporary Jazz Album for his album Unspeakable. Frisell's alma mater, the prestigious Berklee College of Music, awarded Bill with an honorary doctorate as recognition of his musical achievements over the course of his 40+ year musical career. Bill is also the subject of a new documentary film by director Emma Franz, entitled Bill Frisell: A Portrait, which examines his creative process in depth. “Frisell has had a lot of practice putting high concepts into a humble package… Long hailed as one of the most distinctive and original improvising guitarists of our time.” - The New York Times In Episode 64 of the Weird Music Podcast, Bill elaborates on the importance of trust and imagination in improvisational music. Frisell reflects on how he allows music to inform his life decisions and a religious experience in college that led to a serendipitous meeting with Bill Evans. This is the Weird Music Podcast, where our host Cam Elkins explores the minds of the most creative and influential people involved in the music festival scene.

1ère invitée de la #Session Live, #1 Ana Carla Maza pour présenter l'album Bahia (Persona Editorial 2022). Bahia est le deuxième album studio d'Ana Carla Maza. Il s'ouvre sur Habana, hommage à la capitale cubaine, où elle est née il y a 26 ans, d'un père chilien, musicien luxuriant, Carlos Maza, et d'une mère cubaine, guitariste, Mirza Sierra. "Cuba est un volcan", disait le père. "La Havane est une folie", répond la fille. Bien sûr, La Havane, c'est le Malecon, ce boulevard en façade atlantique, qui reçoit les embruns des Everglades. Pourtant, la ville se love autour d'une baie, très fermée, protégée, sûre : la Bahia, partie arrière d'une Habana Vieja humaine, portuaire, cosmopolite, parcourue des mélanges qui ont essaimé de l'Afrique au Brésil. Voir le clip A Tomar Cafe. Titres interprétés - Todo Ira Bien Live RFI - A Tomar Cafe, extrait de l'album Bahia - Le Petit Français Live RFI Ana Carla Maza, violoncelle, chant. Son : Benoît Letirant & Mathias Taylor. Puis #Session Live #2 avec Guillaume de Chassy et Élise Caron qui présentent l'album L'âme des Poètes (Nomadmusic 2022). Note d'intention autour de L'âme des poètes, voir le clip. "Longtemps, longtemps, longtemps Après que les poètes ont disparu Leurs chansons courent encore dans les rues" Charles Trénet L'art de créer de belles mélodies est un don inégalement distribué chez les musiciens. Trénet, Schubert, Evans, Misraki, Prokofiev et Frisell font partie de ceux qui, sans nul doute, ont reçu cette grâce poétique. Au-delà des styles, des époques et des lieux, leurs mélodies ont le pouvoir mystérieux de toucher nos âmes et nos cœurs. Qu'elles soient écrites pour la voix ou, sans paroles, pour tout autre instrument, ces chansons universelles sont mes viatiques pour traverser l'existence. Je souhaitais les célébrer à ma façon sur un même disque. Pour entreprendre ce voyage, Thomas Savy (clarinette) et Arnault Cuisinier (contrebasse) sont des compagnons irremplaçables. Comme moi, ils enjambent les frontières entre musique classique, jazz et chanson. Comme moi, ils révèrent la Mélodie – avec un grand M. Lorsque nous jouons ensemble, la notion de soliste est abolie au profit d'une conversation à voix égales où prévalent l'écoute, la confiance et la liberté. Au fil des années, notre trio a rencontré des voix remarquables : celles de Natalie Dessay, Laurent Naouri ou David Linx. Dernièrement, Élise Caron nous a entraînés dans son monde où se côtoient étrangeté, fantaisie et mélancolie. Pour nous, elle a convoqué les souvenirs délicieux de Danielle Darrieux, Lucienne Delyle, Suzy Delair et Yves Montand. Nous avons peu ou pas répété, nous abandonnant face aux micros au risque de l'instant présent. Nous avons souhaité cette fragilité, marchant main dans la main au-dessus du vide. Trop de préméditation eût peut-être effarouché les fantômes rêveurs qui circulaient parmi nous. L'âme des poètes est parfois délicate à apprivoiser... Guillaume de Chassy Biographie de Guillaume de Chassy À la croisée du jazz et de la musique classique, le pianiste et compositeur Guillaume de Chassy a créé un univers poétique et singulier. Il est considéré comme un artiste majeur de la scène musicale française. Mélodiste et coloriste, son style privilégie la sobriété dans une esthétique sonore raffinée. Guillaume de Chassy a collaboré avec des personnalités du jazz américain et européen, comme Paul Motian, Andy Sheppard, Mark Murphy, Paolo Fresu, André Minvielle, Élise Caron, David Linx, Daniel Yvinec… Guillaume de Chassy se produit dans le monde entier au gré de ses multiples projets, du piano solo à la forme symphonique. Régulièrement saluée par la presse, sa discographie est le reflet d'une personnalité qui échappe aux classifications et d'une créativité sans cesse en éveil. Curieux de toute forme artistique, il s'investit également dans des créations alliant texte, images et musique, notamment avec les comédiennes Kristin Scott Thomas (avec laquelle il a enregistré l'album Shakespeare Songs), Vanessa Redgrave et Katja Riemann. Biographie d'Élise Caron Élise étudie l'art dramatique, le chant et la flûte traversière au Conservatoire à rayonnement régional de Rouen, puis le chant au Conservatoire national supérieur de musique de Paris. Soliste et improvisatrice à l'Orchestre national de jazz, elle collabore également à de nombreuses créations de grands noms de la musique contemporaine, du jazz et de la chanson. Au théâtre, elle interprète Shakespeare, Sophocle, Ramuz, Brecht... Sous la direction Jérôme Savary (pour La Périchole d'Offenbach), Jean-Louis Martinelli (pour L'Opéra de quat'sous et Le Brave Soldat Švejk). Plus récemment, elle a été dirigée par David Lescot pour La Chose commune – concert-spectacle sur la Commune de Paris. Au cinéma, elle a joué le premier rôle de Cocktail Molotov sous la direction de Diane Kurys et tourné avec Jean-Paul Civeyrac, Franck Guérin, Stan Neumann, Xavier Giannoli et Leos Carax. Elle a également participé à No Land's Song – documentaire d'Ayat et Sarah Najafi sur le combat contre l'interdiction faite aux femmes de chanter devant un public mixte en Iran.

Sverige har länge varit ett militärt alliansfritt land. Samtidigt samövar försvaret med Nato. Sveriges geografiska läge gör landet strategiskt viktigt. Men vart ringer överbefälhavaren om det smäller? Svensk trupp förstärker på Gotland mitt i den säkerhetspolitiska krisen i Europa. Det är en markering om att Sverige är berett att skydda sitt eget territorium. Men det är tydligt att vi inte förväntar oss att göra det helt på egen hand åtminstone inte under någon längre tid. Nu har vi valt en linje där vi gärna ser att vi gör det tillsammans med andra, säger Jan Törnqvist, tidigare insatschef i Försvarsmakten.Tabubelagd kontaktI dag har Sverige ett omfattande försvarssamarbete med andra länder. Vi samövar med Nato och andra och våra förmågor har anpassats så att de effektivt kan delta i gemensamma insatser.Det finns de som hävdar att Sverige står så nära Nato det går utan att vara uttalad medlem i försvarsalliansen. I praktiken är vi en del av väst och har ju varit det under hela det kalla kriget. Mycket av det som då skedde dolt sker idag helt öppet, säger Mikael Holmström, författare och journalist. Landet mitt emellanSamtidigt lever bilden av Sverige som ett land som inte ska provocera kvar i många svenskars medvetande. Det finns ju en väldigt stark föreställning kring neutralitetsbegreppet.

“Interpret It Well" Adelanto de la grabación de Ches Smith: Interpret It Well (Pyroclastic Records, 1999) Ches Smith, Bill Frisell, Craig Taborn, Mat Maneri. La composición es obra de Ches Smith. Tomajazz: © Pachi Tapiz, 2022 ¿Sabías que? El single se publicó el 14 de enero como adelanto del disco Interpret It Well que se publicará el 6 de mayo de 2022 en el sello Pyroclastic Records. Ches Smith, Craig Taborn y Mat Maneri ya habían colaborado anteriormente como trío en el disco The Bell (ECM, 2016). En esta ocasión cuentan con la participación de Bill Frisell, con lo que se convierten en cuarteto. En otros ambientes, un grupo con cuatro músicos de este nivel se calificaría fácilmente como supergrupo. No fue sencillo sincronizar las agendas, pero finalmente a principios de 2020 Frisell pudo tocar con el trío (la cita estaba pendiente desde finales de 2018). El resto, vino rodado. El resultado, al completo, se podrá escuchar cuando se publique la grabación.

I detta avsnitt berättar två forskare om att USA:s säkerhetspolitiska intresse riktas alltmer mot Asien och vad detta innebär för Europa, i synnerhet länderna runt Östersjön. Gäster i avsnittet är forskningsledare Eva Hagström Frisell och analytiker Jakob Gustafsson från FOI. De talar bland annat om vad små länder i Europa kan göra, hur den pågående konflikten kring Ukraina påverkar Europa och varför det blir allt svårare att skilja på handels- och säkerhetspolitik. Dessutom bjuder forskarna på en grundlig genomgång av det så kallade allianssäkerhetsdilemmat.
Dopiero niedawno „ciężka praca” stała się powodem do dumy, a nie wstydu z powodu braku talentu, finezji i, przede wszystkim, sprezzatury - Nassim TALEB Uwielbiam ten cytat. Jest genialny. I bardzo głęboko wnika we współczesną psychologię - czyli potrzebę ekspozycji, pokazania swojego cierpienia (jakie to do głębi chrześcijańskie) oraz szukania poklasku i akceptacji grupy - no i , co dziś najważniejsze, emocjonalnego ekshibicjonizmu w czasach, kiedy środki do celu (np. "przepracowywanie" swoich traum z psychoterapeutą czy bycie na diecie - tu wpisz sobie czy keto czy wege) stały się, same w sobie, celem. Oczywiście myk polega na tym, że kluczem do sprezzatury jest ciężka praca - ale ciężka praca którą ukrywasz a nie którą się chwalisz. Ale my dziś, rzekomo, żyjemy w czasach transparencji. Jeśli nie wiesz co oznacza transparencja - spiszę z wyjaśnieniem. Transparencja oznacza brak klasy, pretensjonalność, narcyzm i potrzebę przypodobania się. W skrócie - jest przeciwieństwem autonomii, tudzież osobistej władzy. A to właśnie autonomia, czyli budowanie i utrzymywanie władzy osobistej, jest tematem tegoż jakże wyczekiwanego wpisu. Wybitny amerykański kompozytor, dyrygent i pianista Leonard BERNSTEIN nauczał, że prawdziwy artystyczny performance składa się z TRZECH elementów: DECORO: czyli z ciężkiej pracy, treningów, wysiłku, często w pocie czoła oraz samotności. Idąc za FRISELLĄ i GROVEREM z poprzedniego wpisu - to jest faza przygotowywania do wygrywania. SPREZZATURA: to faza druga, czyli sztuka lekkości, nonszalancji, zainspirowanego działania, przepływu w skrócie. Jest ona, oczywiście, niemożliwa bez fazy DECORO. Czyli mamy tu paradoks, który paradoksem nie jest: ciężka, świadoma praca, tresura (nieładnie to ujmując), prowadzi do spontaniczności - o ile jej i sobie na to pozwolimy. Potem, jak uczył BERNSTEIN, następuje jeszcze faza trzecia i ostatnia, czyli: GRAZIA: czyli gracja, czyli światło wielkości i geniuszu, które to unosi się nad artystą, który przez fazę DECORO przeszedł do fazy SPREZZATURY. Mówiąc inaczej, metaforą: jeśli SUKCES jest górą, DECORO to 9/10 góry, z jej podstawą włącznie, SPREZZATURA to wierzchołek, czyli jej szczyt a GRAZIA to słońce, które nad tym wierzchołkiem się unosi. Czyli: DECORO prowadzi do SPREZZATURY a SPREZZATURA rodzi GRAZIE. DECORO bez SPREZZATURY to wyrywanie sobie zębów. SPREZZATURA bez DECORO to pewna klęska. DECORO plus SPREZZATURA równa się GRACJA - bo ostatnia rzecz której chcesz, jeśli mieszkać w krainie martyrologii i samoudręczenia. Mistrz ciężkiego uderzenia w lekkim stylu, Pan Charlie WATTS, the ROLLING STONES (foto: NYTimes.com) Pamiętam jeszcze czasy, to było ze 20-25 lat temu, kiedy nasza wybitna wtedy reprezentacja piłki nożnej biła kolejne rekordy w minutach bez strzelonego gola. Któryś z dziennikarzy miesięcznika CKM napisał wtedy dowcipnie, że trudno w sumie ich za to winić, bo nie każdy dobrze czuje się z piłką, czyli okrągłym przedmiotem którego nie da się ani położyć ani postawić. Jednak nawet wtedy nie brakowało chłopakom bojowości w znajdowaniu kolejnych wymówek ich chujowej gry oraz - co bardzo ważne kiedy jesteś przegrywem - bezwzględnego i bezwarunkowego poczucia wyższości moralnej - niezależnie od okoliczności. Tak się bowiem dziwnie na tym świecie dzieje, że (o czym wspominałem we wcześniejszych materiałach) naszym życiem rządzi słowo na S - i nie chodzi tutaj o SEKS, tylko o STATUS. Wszyscy bowiem jesteśmy w biznesie zwiększania tudzież przynajmniej utrzymywania naszego statusu. Nic nie poradzisz - stadne z nas zwierzęta. Znawcy tematu STATUSU, w tym autor Will STORR wyróżniają w temacie STATUSU trzy rodzaje gier: Gry DOMINACJI Gry NIESKAZITELNOŚCI i Gry SUKCESU W grach DOMINACJI twój status opiera się głownie na budzeniu STRACHU czy RESPEKTU. Przykładem jest tu np. kariera w mafii [w "majfii" jak mawiał jeden z bohaterów książki "Chłopcy z ferajny"] czy jednostkach specjalnych.
In the 13th episode of the Son Lux podcast "Plans We Make,” @Rafiq Bhatia speaks with influential guitarist and composer @Bill Frisell. One of the most sought-after guitar voices in contemporary music, Frisell has contributed to the work of such collaborators as Brian Eno, John Zorn, The Los Angeles Philharmonic, film director Gus Van Sant, Bono, and more. The breadth of such performing and recording situations is a testament not only to his singular guitar conception, but his musical versatility as well. https://www.billfrisell.com/ Subscribe to the podcast now: https://smarturl.it/sonluxpodcast Plans We Make is available wherever you listen to podcasts, and full videos will go up on YouTube.

Andrew Cyrille is the last man standing from the first wave of free jazz drummers. He and Milford Graves, Sunny Murray, and Rashied Ali really revolutionized jazz rhythm in their playing with Cecil Taylor, Albert Ayler, John Coltrane and other musicians in the early to mid '60s. Their influence was huge, and each of them brought a different perspective and instantly identifiable style to the music. What I hear when I listen to Andrew Cyrille, whether he's playing with Cecil Taylor or Anthony Braxton or in any other situation, is an incredible precision and consideration. He really seems to be thinking about every single strike and placing it with unbelievable care, even when he's playing ridiculously fast.In the last few years, Cyrille has been making some really interesting records as a leader for ECM. He started in 2016 with The Declaration of Musical Independence, which featured Bill Frisell on guitar, Richard Teitelbaum on synth, and Ben Street on bass, then he made Lebroba with Frisell and Wadada Leo Smith, and now he's got a new album out, The News, which features Frisell and Street again but has David Virelles on piano instead of Teitelbaum. And right before that string of records, in 2015, he was on guitarist Ben Monder's album Amorphae. And I also want to mention a record he did in 2017, Dione, a trio record with Ivo Perelman and Matthew Shipp. He's had an incredible career as a sideman, too, working with David Murray, Leroy Jenkins, Muhal Richard Abrams, Marion Brown, Horace Tapscott, Peter Brötzmann, and of course he's also one of the members of Trio 3 with Oliver Lake and Reggie Workman — they played at the 2021 Vision Festival, where he also presented a solo tribute to Milford Graves.We talk about Graves a lot in this interview, as well as Cyrille's approach to rhythm and to music generally, and a lot of other things. It's funny, the conversation has kind of a false ending, because I had been told by his publicist that he only wanted to talk for a half hour, and I negotiated us up to 45 minutes, and then at the 45 minute mark I started saying goodbye and thanking him for his time, and he showed no interest in stopping, so we kept going and probably could have talked for another half hour.

Highlights from the July 22, 2021 print edition of the Rio Blanco Herald times. The beautiful music track in this piece was offered graciously in the public domain by Gertraut Hecher. Find more of their work at https://freesound.org/people/gertraut_hecher/ and https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCY05B2fWF0fQGmQ75i_o3VA ----- A crisp morning start turned into a beautiful, bright day on Saturday, July 17, perfect for the Seaplane Splash-in at the Kenney Reservoir, hosted by the Colorado Seaplane Initiative. Activities included the creation of a floating bingo card by aviators and education for spectators, who learned among other facts that the Taylor Draw Dam, created in 1983, was entirely funded by Rio Blanco taxpayers to protect residents against flooding. In pandemic news, well, the pandemic isn't over. there were 15 new cases of COVID-19 and one new hospital admission reported between July 12-19, bringing the total reported cases in the county to 700. According to the Rio Blanco County Public Health Department, the Delta variant of COVID-19 is spreading, primarily among the unvaccinated. More on this story including information about vaccinations and testing is on the front page. For county news, check out page 2, which has info on the latest board of commissioner meeting. Among other items, the IT department is working on securing grants to expand broadband access to residents who were not reached in the first build out. Commissioners also heard concerns about the integrity of dominion voting machines in the 2020 presidential election. The board also rescinded RBC resolutions 2020-18 and 2020-19, reinstating a previous county policy regarding hiring of staff by elected officials and department heads. County Attorney Don Steerman said the resolutions created issues with “timeliness” of hiring people. As per county policy, new positions or increases to the budget caused by hiring would still require approval by the board.. Page 3 has news notes, announcing the WREA member dinner as part of this Friday's Meekerpalooza festivities, a tour of the newly restored the Coal Creek School on July 25th, a Colorado parks and Wildlife open house on the 26th, and Frisell and Morrison live at the TANK in Rangely next month. Also on page 3, a photo of the new Mural at Meeker town park. This week Rangely town trustees considered a resolution that would require the mayor and trustees to be present at 80% of all regular and special meetings. The board is set to vote on the resolution next week. And over in Meeker, the town is encouraging residents to conserve water, as Public works superintendent Russell Overton reported the June water usage was more than 3 million gallons. And back on the subject of water, page 11 also has an explanation of of the white river integrated water initiative, defined as “a community driven effort to utilize local resources to promote a healthy river for the benefit of agriculture, the environment, and the local customs and culture along the White River and its tributaries…” 125 years ago the Meeker Herald published “Judging by the number of carriages and buggies being sold in this vicinity lately, the valley is becoming quite aristocratic. It is also a sign of prosperity. 100 years ago it published “A large delegation of people from New Orleans were registered at the Meeker Hotel, Monday. They were seeking the cool breezes of the White River.” One more quick factoid before we wrap up, the reporter's shield law gives journalists (that's us) the right to protect the identity of any source who would like to remain anonymous.

In today's episode of Constant Constance, Andrew speaks with legendary guitarist and composer Bill Frisell. Andrew and Bill have known each other for a while, and the conversation sits on a wide spectrum, including some very tough questions about socks. But in all seriousness, what humble, kind, and beautiful human soul Bill Frisell is. This conversation is a delightful walk down memory lane to the early nineties with a walk to present times, spanning topics of music, Bill's celebrated album “Have A Little Faith,” life, career, and more. And before we start, let us not forget Frisell's famous saying about a band Andrew was playing in back when the two met: “Those guys play their asses off!” --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/andrew-norman-dangelo/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/andrew-norman-dangelo/support
Every age its defining musicians, who stand-out for their innovations and distinctive voices. For us growing up musically in the 1980s and 1990s and interested in forward looking music Bill Frisell is one of these foundational figures. His instrumental style is certainly unique and has shaped the way the following generations have approached the guitar, and--more and more so--his compositions are being embraced by his peers. His tunes integrate sources as diverse as country music, rock, pop, surf music or American contemporary and classical music into jazz. They contain many familiar traits which are hard to pin down because they've been revisited through Frisell's original vision, creating a brand of Americana that has become influential well beyond the confines of the US. Here we'll explore some of the best renditions of his songs. Detailed playlist at https://spinitron.com/RFB/pl/12860963/Mondo-Jazz (up to Jerry Douglas) Happy listening!

Bill Frisell's instrumental voice is instantly recognizable, no matter whether he displays its skronky side in John Zorn's Naked City or his sublime and delicate voicings infused of high-end Americana. Equally distinctive are his compositions which more and more of his peers have been incorporating in their repertoires, in a process of metabolization that goes back to the 1990s but--as it always happens for musicians whose style is so distinctive--started to really take off later in Frisell's career and is now reaching a healthy cruising speed. In this part of the show we'll feature renditions of Frisell's tunes by The Spellcasters; Rope; JP Schlegelmilch; Matt Brewer; Leni Stern; Arto Lindsay; David Sylvian; Danny Barnes; David Halliday; Unscientific Italians; Allen Ginsberg; Hal Willner; Gabriela; Angela Davis; Brooklyn Rider.

Filmed in Cottage Grove, Buster Keaton's 1926 silent film, “The General,” is considered one of the greatest movies of all time. Telling the story of a blundering train conductor who inadvertently saves the Confederate Army during the Civil War, it mixed a then-unique blend of Keaton's trademark slapstick with action and drama, not to mention one of the most ambitious stunts of the silent era. In a celluloid coincidence of cosmic proportions, the Hollywood Theatre is also celebrating its 90th anniversary this year with a summer of special screenings and events, and what better way to celebrate than to throw a co-birthday party?The Hollywood commissioned the well-known Oregon composer Mark Orton to create an original score for “The General” and tour it around the state with a live ensemble, starting at the Hollywood on Aug. 12 and stopping in Cottage Grove (Aug. 13), Coos Bay (Aug. 14), Bend (Aug. 16) and Klamath Falls (Aug. 17), before returning to the Hollywood on Aug. 19.“I think Keaton's humor is like no other,” says Orton of why he chose to take on the project. “He can do more with the absence of expression in terms of humor than people do with all their antics and gesticulation.”Orton first came upon Keaton's films in his 20s while working as an audio engineer for the Bill Frisell Trio, which toured Frisell's own scores to some of Keaton's films. Orton has since made a name for himself first as a member of Tin Hat, an eclectic ensemble that makes the kind of music NPR listeners love, and then as a composer for films, documentaries and performances. He has soundtracked everything from Alexander Payne's “Nebraska” to Ken Burns' “The Roosevelts” and episodes for "This American Life."For our radio feature above, Orton gave us a tour of his studio, which is packed full of antique instruments, including period pieces like a field organ and minstrel banjo, before taking us through how he composed the score.Over the years, Orton has visited many of the Cottage Grove sites in “The General.” Keaton, who also wrote and directed the movie, chose to film it in Cottage Grove because it had a certain old-timey, Southern feel during the 1920s, plus a stretch of low-traffic train tracks for the train chase scene. He employed some 500 Oregon Guard members as extras to play both Union and Confederate soldiers.For those who want to retrace Keaton's steps, the Cottage Grove Historical Society has scheduled a number of August events in and around the town to celebrate.
