Podcasts about Herbie Nichols

Normal service resumes with a podcast devoted to tributes celebrating the still-obscure pianist and composer Herbie Nichols.  Nichols spent his truncated career in the shadow of Thelonious Monk (a big guy who cast a big shadow).  He released roughly four albums in his lifetime and spent much of his career scuffling in Dixieland bands, but those initiated into his cult realize he was a truly gifted and unique composer.  These tributes encompass a fairly straight ahead quintet date, a more adventuresome guitar trio, a solo piano recital, and a vocal set with brand new lyrics (and titles!) for many of Herbie's songs.  Eric T. Johnson – HERBIE NICHOLS VOL 1; Enrique Heredia Trio – PLAY HERBIE NICHOLS; Simon Nabatov – SPINNING SONGS OF HERBIE NICHOLS; Fay Victor – LIFE IS FUNNY THAT WAY.

As we noted so succinctly way back in 2014:  Some trios play nicer together than others - Pat and Mike investigate.   Duke Ellington – MONEY JUNGLE; Terri Lyne Carrington – MONEY JUNGLE PROVOCATIVE IN BLUE; Jean-Michel Pilc – WELCOME HOME; Herbie Nichols – LOVE, GLOOM, CASH, LOVE.  Tune in next time as the Herbie Nichols connection leads to a brand new episode covering four albums devoted solely to his music.

Fay Victor is a Brooklyn-born vocalist and bandleader who earlier this year released Life is Funny That Way, an album reimagining the compositions of pianist Herbie Nichols. Nichols was known for composing the music for Billie Holiday's famous song, “Lady Sings the Blues.” Ahead of her first headlining set at Dizzy's Club at Jazz at Lincoln Center on July 24, Victor joins with her band for a special live performance.

They say that three is the perfect number, and so we have decided to go "three-by-three", focusing on three musicians, Nicole McCabe [pictured], Herbie Nichols and John Hadfield, and featuring three recent tracks associated with each one of them. The playlist also features Dolphin Hyperspace, Louis Cole, Logan Kane; Ben Allison, Steve Cardenas, Ted Nash; Fay Victor; Enrique Heredia; Layale Chaker, Sarafand; and Rachel Eckroth. Detailed playlist at https://spinitron.com/RFB/pl/19033914/Mondo-Jazz (up to "Improvisation 1"). Happy listening!

It's an episode years in the making when Mike is finally able to track down guitarist, composer, and raconteur Duck Baker.   We discovered Duck through his solo recording of Herbie Nichols' tunes, but Mike finds out that Duck has collaborated with such luminaries as John Zorn, Roswell Rudd, and Eugene Chadbourne while keeping up a stream of solo and group releases and composing dozens of tunes.  Don't miss this discussion from one of the only finger-style guitarists as comfortable at playing folk tunes and jazz covers as he is traveling to outer space.  And be sure to visit www.duckbaker.com for more information on this artist.

La composición es un tema de Joe Zawinul. Tomajazz: © Pachi Tapiz, 2022 ¿Sabías que? "125th Street Congress" abría la cara B del disco original.  Algunos de los temas como el seleccionado, "Boowie Woogie Waltz" o "Non-Stop Home" estaban más orientados al funk y al groove que hacia el sonido de las grabaciones anteriores. El grupo The Essence All Stars, en el que participaban Idris Muhammad, Michal Urbaniak o Joey DeFrancesco entre otros, versionó el tema en su disco Bongo Bop de 1997, en el que aparecían versiones de temas de Horace Silver, Charlie Parker, Herbie Nichols o Max Roach.  En anteriores episodios de JazzX5/HDO/LODLMA/Maltidos Jazztardos… https://www.tomajazz.com/web/?p=60060 Más información sobre Weather Report https://weatherreportmusic.com/ Más información sobre Weather Report en Tomajazz https://www.tomajazz.com/web/?s=weather+report&submit=Search Más información sobre JazzX5 JazzX5 es un minipodcast de HDO de la Factoría Tomajazz presentado, editado y producido por Pachi Tapiz.

PROG.Nº 661.- Dos horas para el análisis y repaso a la historia y actualidad que generan esta música americana . Todo en el tono que acostumbra este programa, en dos secciones JAZZ ANIVERSARIO y JAZZ ACTUALIDAD importantes novedades y diferentes canales de comunicación que se ofrecerán al oyente. STANDARD SEMANAL.- “Nature Boy”( Nat King Cole-Frank Sinatra- diana reeves) Hoy tendremos también como todos los fines de mes, el tema que nos ofrece Ezequiel del BAUL DEL JAZZ, con Diana Reeves). JAZZ RECUERDO ANIVERSARIO.- Denzil best-Erroll Garner -Concert By The Sea Denzil DaCosta Best (27 de abril de 1917 - 24 de mayo de 1965) fue un percusionista y compositor estadounidense de jazz nacido en la ciudad de Nueva York. Fue un destacado baterista de bebop en la década de 1950 y principios de 1960. Best nació en la ciudad de Nueva York, en una familia musical de las Indias Occidentales originaria de Barbados . [1] Entrenado en piano, trompeta y bajo, se concentró en la batería a partir de 1943. Entre 1943 y 1944 trabajó con Ben Webster , y posteriormente con Coleman Hawkins (1944–45), Illinois Jacquet (1946) y Chubby Jackson. . El baterista era conocido por sentarse en el Playhouse de Minton . [2] Participó en una grabación con George Shearing en 1948 y fue miembro fundador de su Cuarteto, permaneciendo allí hasta 1952. En 1949 tocó en una grabación con Lennie Tristano y también grabó más tarde con Lee Konitz . En un accidente automovilístico de 1953, se fracturó ambas piernas y se vio obligado a retirarse temporalmente [3] hasta 1954, cuando jugó con Artie Shaw , y luego en un trío con Erroll Garner (1955–57). Best posteriormente jugó con Phineas Newborn , Nina Simone , Billie Holiday y Tyree Glenn , y en 1962 apareció en el primer lanzamiento de Sheila Jordan . Sufrió parálisis después de esto y ya no podía jugar; murió a los 48 años en 1965, después de caerse por una escalera en una estación de metro de la ciudad de Nueva York. Composiciones Best compuso varias canciones conocidas de bebop, incluyendo "Move" (que apareció en un arreglo de John Lewis en las grabaciones seminales de 1949 y 1950 lanzadas en 1957 en el álbum Miles Davis Capitol Records , Birth of the Cool ), "Wee" , "Nothing but D. Best", y "Dee Dee's Dance", y con Thelonious Monk , " Bemsha Swing ". [4] La composición de Best "45 Degree Angle" fue grabada por Herbie Nichols y Mary Lou Williams . Influencia A diferencia de muchos percusionistas bebop, que cargaron el espacio musical con acentos contra el metro prevaleciente y, por lo tanto, crearon intensidad rítmica, Best reanudó el desarrollo legato de Jo Jones . Jugó al ritmo y rara vez usaba acentos fuertes. Tocando de esta manera, no solo fue un modelo para el jazz cool, sino que también influyó en innumerables combos de bar. Best fue conocido por su trabajo con los pinceles : el baterista Jake Hanna dijo que "podría ser el mejor pincel de todos los bateristas", [5] : 117 y Elvin Jones incluyó a Best entre sus tres primeros. [5] : 123 Fue el baterista en la muy popular grabación de Erroll Garner Concert by the Sea , junto con el bajista Eddie Calhoun . STANDARD SEMANAL.- “Nature Boy”( Nat King Cole-Frank Sinatra- diana reeves)-JAZZ RECUERDO ANIVERSARIO.- Denzil best-Erroll Garner -Concert By The Sea.-JAZZ ACTUALIDAD .- Esta semana tendremos a Amadeu Adell Trio Personal Matters.-CARMEN CUESTA-“PEACE OF MIND” JAZZ ACTUALIDAD .- Esta semana tendremos a Amadeu Adell Trio Personal Matters.-CARMEN CUESTA-“PEACE OF MIND” Personal matters trio opus 2 Es el segundo trabajo discográfico del trio valenciano formado por el bateria Pere munuera, Lucas Ibañez en las guitarras y amadeu adell en el contrabajo,bajo eléctrico , y autor de los temas del disco, el cual siguiendo la línea de su anterior trabajo y en forma de suite temática traslada al oyente por diferentes tipos de sonoridades y texturas sonoras que van relatando y describiendo la forma de las 5 piezas musicales basadas en "manías"que son descritas y desarrolladas musicalmente . Para este trabajo además de el trio "personal MATTERS"han colaborado la chelista eridani González,Andrés belmonte en las flautas,Kike Simon en el piano y la voz de payoh soulrebel ,que perfilan los arreglos y dan un toque acústico al carácter más eléctrico del trio. Un disco de jazz contemporáneo abierto al mestizaje sonoro en el que se mezclan sin tapujos las influencias del rock-jazz progresivo,el folk- urbano,la clásica o la world- music con los textos de la escritora Erica Fortuny que nos sitúan y enriquecen el paisaje sonoro

I've had a busy week, and haven't had the time to complete the Herbie Nichols episode that I'm working on.  It will be ready for next Wednesday.  In the meantime, enjoy a track from Herbie's first album!

Four six-string masters going solo are the focus for this fortnight's podcast, and they cover the gamut from acoustic true-believers to studio mavens ready to mix it up with multi-tracking and effects pedals. What are the benefits - and dangers - of attempting jazz without compadres? Wouldn't you know it, Pat & Mike have opinions on that topic. Pop matters focuses squarely on the King - at least for white people of a certain age - Elvis Presley. Steve Khan – EVIDENCE; Duck Baker – SPINNING SONG; Joe Pass – VIRTUOSO; Leo Kottke – THE BEST.

Herbie Nichols was a master of the piano which has inspired generations of musicians after his passing, despite the little commercial success that his albums obtained when first released. 2019 marks the centennial of his birth and to remedy the lack of retrospectives that his work should have, but hasn't, received this year, this week's edition of Mondo Jazz will be looking into the impact that his memorable compositions have had on a number of contemporary artists. This episode includes both compositions that Nichols was able to record himself, as well as others that he never managed to bring to a recording studio, but other musicians after him did. As a special bonus, also never released material by the Herbie Nichols Project, one of the bands that championed Nichols' music. The playlist also includes Paul Motian, Ted Nash, Dave Douglas, Heikki Sarmanto, Simon Nabatov, Duck Baker, Roswell Rudd, Misha Mengelberg, Steve Lacy, Pietro Tonolo, Flavio Boltro, Emmanuel Bex, Joe Chambers, Lucas Gillan, Ben Allison, Mal Waldron, Buell Neidlinger, Geri Allen, Charlie Haden, Paul Motian, The Mary Lou Williams Collective, Matt Wilson, Simon Nabatov.

VJC Q&T podcast host Russell Schmidt has known pianist/organist/composer Michael Kocour for more than a dozen years. A nationally-renown educator, Mike is the Director of Jazz Studies at Arizona State University. Additionally, he is a recording artist for Origin Records, releasing a solo piano album, East of the Sun, on that label’s OA2 imprint earlier this year. In early summer, Mike sat down with Russ to partake in spirited, engaging discussions on jazz, music education, and the nature of creativity. In this second of two podcasts together, they discussed the sometimes-random nature in discovering one’s passions and influences, the deeper truths revealed on vinyl records, and even the lengthy path to be travelled just to join a school’s “stage band”.

Prima e dopo la rimpatriata a New York con Roswell Rudd, nel '76 Steve Lacy si esibisce in Italia in duo e in trio con il batterista/percussionista Andrea Centazzo, che proprio per pubblicare la registrazione di un duo live con Lacy - per cui non trova interesse nelle case discografiche - dà vita alla propria etichetta Ictus. Nell'82 Lacy fa parte di un quintetto con cui Roswell Rudd riesce a coronare il sogno di incidere un album di musiche di Herbie Nichols e di Thelonious Monk con musicisti di livello e per un'etichetta non marginale: con loro ci sono Ken Carter al contrabbasso e due capiscuola dell'improvvisazione olandese, il pianista Misha Mengelberg e il batterista Han Bennink, che condividono la devozione di Rudd per Nichols e Monk. L'album, Regeneration, viene registrato a Milano per la Soul Note del produttore Giovanni Bonandrini (dall'82 all'85 Bonandrini viene proclamato "produttore dell'anno" dall'annuale referendum della rivista americana Down Beat).

El ICP (Instant Composers Pool) se fundó en 1987, y casi medio siglo después presenta una grabación sin uno de sus fundadores, Misha Mengelberg. En esta edición de 'Club de Jazz' del 2 de mayo de 2015 escuchamos "East of the sun", disco en el que la formación liderada por Han Bennink mantiene muy vivas las constantes creativas de este grupo. Nos aproximamos a la música del pianista Herbie Nichols (al que Mengelberg dedicó uno de sus trabajos) a través de sus propias grabaciones y del disco que le dedicó el pianista ruso Simon Nabatov. Precisamente a Nabatov dedicamos unos minutos a través de su disco sobre música de Nichols, pero también con la música de su quinteto, el dúo junto al trombonista Nils Wogram y como integrante del trío junto al baterista estadounidense Gerry Hemingway y al clarinetista turco Oguz Büyükberber. "desde mi cadiera" Jesús Moreno nos trae la música del Sputnik Trio del saxofonista Ricardo Tejero y la música del nuevo disco del pianista británico Alexander Hawkins. En el "Jazz Porteño", Alberto Varela nos cuela en el Café Vinilo de Buenos Aires para escuchar el guiño "coltraniano" del saxofonista Carlos Lastra.

Some trios play nicer together than others - Pat and Mike investigate. Duke Ellington – MONEY JUNGLE; Terri Lynn Carrington – MONEY JUNGLE PROVOCATIVE IN BLUE; Jean Michel Pilc – WELCOME HOME; Herbie Nichols – LOVE, GLOOM, CASH, LOVE.

This obscure artist who rarely if ever played his music in public (he made his living playing in Dixieland and show bands) was able through the graces of Blue Note Records' Alfred Lion to record a series of dates with hand-picked sidemen playing his own compositions. Lion released Herbies first two albums on two 10" LPs called "The Prophetic Herbie Nichols" Volumes 1 & 2. Tonight we hear his first 12 pieces that made up these records. Nichols is on piano with Al McKibbon on bass and Art Blakey on drums. The dates were done in May of 1955 and presents the evocative compositions of Mr. Nichols with his marvelous piano playing. The prophetic Herbie Nichols indeed!

Herbie Nichols would have been 92 years old today. The pianist is the subject of a new biography -- Herbie Nichols: A Jazzist's Life by Mark Miller. In this interview, Miller talks about why Nichols failed to become known during his lifetime; why Nichols is often labeled an acolyte of Thelonious Monk; and how Miller came to write the book in the first place. Learn more at the Web site of The Mercury Press. ADDITIONAL LISTENING: Check out the "Herbie Nichols' Third World" episode of David Brent Johnson's excellent Night Lights program. UPDATE: At the end of this episode, I said that Herbie Nichols died at the age of 34. He actually died at the age of 44. Thanks to listener Robert Klein for the correction.
