Podcast appearances and mentions of Jeff Ballard

STANDAR SEMANAL.-¿Qué es esta cosa llamada amor?-VINILOS MÍTICOS DEL JAZZ.-JACKIE MCLAN-Que suene la libertad.-JAZZACTUALIDAD.-BIEL HAEPER-OCELL Let Freedom Ring es un álbum delsaxofonista de jazz estadounidense Jackie McLean , grabado en 1962 y lanzado por elsello Blue Note . Presenta a McLean en un cuarteto con el pianista Walter Davis Jr. , el bajista Herbie Lewis y el baterista Billy Higgins . McLean escribió tres de las cuatro composiciones. "Melody for Melonae" está dedicada a su hija (al igual que una composición anterior, "Little Melonae") y apareció como "Melanie" en Matador , una grabación posterior que realizó con Kenny Dorham . La interpretación a ritmo más lento de Let Freedom Ring fue la primera ocasión en que McLean usó "gritos provocativos en el registro agudo". "Rene" y "Omega" son piezas relacionadas con el blues; la primera con una estructura y armonías estándar de doce compases , la segunda más abstracta y modal . El único tema que no es de McLean es la balada de Bud Powell , "I'll Keep Loving You". La reseña de AllMusic de Steve Huey le otorgó al álbum 5 estrellas y declaró: «El éxito de Let Freedom Ring allanó el camino para que una cosecha excepcional de otros innovadores modernistas se unieran a la lista de Blue Note y, artísticamente, sigue siendo, junto con One Step Beyond , la obra maestra de McLean». La Guía Penguin del Jazz le otorga a Let Freedom Ring cuatro de cuatro estrellas e incluye el álbum en una selecta «Colección Principal». "Melodía para Melonae" - 13:24 "Seguiré amándote" ( Bud Powell ) - 6:18 "René" - 10:03 "Omega" - 8:31 Personal Jackie McLean — saxofón alto Walter Davis, Jr. — piano Herbie Lewis — bajo Billy Higgins — batería 'Pájaro' es el nuevo disco del joven pianista y compositor Biel Harper, una obra nacida del deseo de compartir la esencia intangible de la música, tan lógica como abstracta. El cuarteto que acompaña a Biel Harper en esta aventura cuenta con el lirismo de Álvaro Ocón en la trompeta, la profundidad de Tabea Kind en el contrabajo y el groove inconfundible de Lucas Zibulski en la batería. Juntos, llenan las composiciones de Biel Harper de una rica paleta de matices, colores y texturas sonoras. "Compartir música con amigos a los que admiras y amas, y saber que encontrarán su espacio entre tus notas, es un placer difícil de expresar con palabras. Es como escuchar por primera vez algo que has descubierto, y ver cómo evoluciona y se transforma en algo nuevo, a la vez conocido y misterioso". Este proceso creativo es el que da forma a este disco: una grabación realizada en un único día, todos juntos en la misma sala, con tomas únicas y llenas de improvisación y decisiones espontáneas. El álbum se compone íntegramente de música original, pensada para ofrecer la máxima libertad a los músicos, con momentos de intensidad rítmica, melodías con aires folclóricos, canciones y libre improvisación. Datos técnicos: Biel Harper, piano, composiciones y producción Tabea Kind, contrabaix. Álvaro Ocón, trompeta. Lucas Zibulski, batería. Biel Harper (Barcelona, ​​1999) se graduó en Piano Jazz en el Conservatorio Superior del Liceo en 2021, donde estudió con maestros de prestigio como Marco Mezquida, Bill McHenry y Roger Mas, entre otros. Actualmente, está finalizando un máster en Interpretación y Composición en la prestigiosa escuela Jazz Campus de Basilea (Suiza).

Además, ha compartido experiencias de cerca con músicos de primer nivel como Larry Grenadier, Jorge Rossy, Jeff Ballard y Lionel Loueke a través de combos, clases magistrales y conciertos en el campus. En los últimos años, ha participado en varios proyectos entre los que cabe destacar: - Aura y Biel, el dúo que comparte con la cantante Aura Mauri, y con quien en 2022 publicó su primer disco, 'Instants', poco después de quedar finalistas en el concurso Juventudes Musicales de España (Jazz). - Las diversas colaboraciones con la contrabajista y compositora Giulia Valle, entre las que cabe destacar el trío que formaban junto con la batería Andrea González - ML Quartet, liderado por el contrabajista Manuel Luque, con quien han publicado el disco 'Cicatrices' (2024) y han logrado el segundo puesto en el concurso Juventudes Musicales de España (Jazz). Con estos proyectos, ha recorrido España, Italia, Alemania y Suiza, actuando en salas y festivales de referencia como Bird's Eye, Jamboree, Nueva Jazz Cava, Auditorio de Vilafranca, Auditorio de Palafrugell y en eventos como el Estartit Jazz Festival, Festival de Jazz de Terrassa y Festival de Jazz de Palafrugell, entre otros muchos.

Kurt Rosenwinkel, a Philadelphia-born jazz guitarist, is renowned for blending genres and using guitar effects innovatively in jazz. His latest release, The Next Step Band (Live at Smalls, 1996), revisits the music from his acclaimed 2001 album The Next Step and features longtime collaborators Mark Turner, Ben Street, and Jeff Ballard. In addition to his album, Rosenwinkel has published Kurt Rosenwinkel's Ultimate Book of Compositions, which includes scores, tabs, and commentary on his extensive work. He founded his label, Heartcore, in 2016 to release Caipi and take control of his career, likening the label's creation to playing a "record company" video game. His current projects include arranging for the Jazz at Lincoln Center Big Band, collaborating with Wynton Marsalis, and recording a Brahms interpretation following the success of The Chopin Project.

Continuamos con los monográficos de verano dedicados a una de las grandes figuras del jazz de nuestro país, el pianista Chano Domínguez. En el primer capítulo le dejamos a finales del siglo XX, cuando editaba su 'En directo. Piano solo' (1997), grabado en el Café Central de Madrid, y con ese disco retomamos la historia. A continuación repasaremos algunos de sus discos más importantes editados en los inicios del siglo XXI. Trabajos tan destacados como 'Imán' (2000) u 'Oye como viene' (2022), en los que su inmersión en el flamenco ya es mucho más evidente, contando incluso con algunos excelentes cantaores como Enrique Morente o Blas de Córdoba 'El Kejío'. También por esa época editó su disco 'Tú no sospechas'(2000), a dúo con la cantante cubana Marta Valdéz, más orientado al bolero, así como su participación en el proyecto Jazzpaña, que presentaba su segunda entrega en aquel mismo año. Tras su participación en el documental 'Calle 54', de Fernando Trueba, Chano obtuvo un gran impulso a nivel internacional, que le llevó a grabar el disco con el que finalizamos este episodio, 'Con alma' (2003), acompañado de dos pesos pesados del jazz norteamericano, el contrabajista George Mraz y el batería Jeff Ballard.

Spring  training has begun but we're already in midseason form. The Savanna Bananas had a new player but nobody could see him, Tommy Pham likes fantasy football more than the actual game apparently, Jeff Ballard's IMDB page is better than we expected and some huge Blue Jays news. Our main segment this week is a lyric by lyric breakdown of the 1990 criminally overlooked rap by the Cincinnati Reds, Reds Hot. Barry Larkin gathered some of the best baseball players but worst rappers he could find to lay down some sick beats about staying in school, not doing drugs and kicking ass. It appears Chris Sabo was able to sneak into the studio and get in some lines as well.  Don't forget, you can leave us a message at 607-216-8811.  Watch Reds Hot in all it's glory - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5yssH0AdrY&ab_channel=ThomCD-ROM Blessed Union of Sould with one of the best baseball songs we've heard - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8A4Lbj383g&ab_channel=DanielFrench The Sloppy Boys NSFW baseball song - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxS2Q_N9WYM&ab_channel=TheSloppyBoys Facebook -https://www.facebook.com/TwoStrikeNoise/ Instagram - @twostrikenoise Bluesky - @twostrikenoise.bsky.social Threads - @twostrikenoise Twitter - @twostrikenoise Two Strike Noise on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvh7epD-mqT9qCIV7CNqhog Twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/twostrikenoise E-mail - twostrikenoise@gmail.com We pull ALOT of commons in Wax Pack Heroes.

The pop culture topics of the December 1989/January 1990 issue fall into a few clear categories. Want to learn about age-appropriate boys? There are What Now items on Fred Savage and Jared Rushton. Want to get confused by feelings of horniness for unbelievably hot men? There's a shirtless Patrick Swayze and Billy Wirth, the latter apparently One To Watch. Want to be really mean about people who are wealthier and more powerful than you will ever be? There's a swipe at Cher for being old (at 43), and a WHOLE bunch of snark in the results of the entertainment poll -- including the magazine's editors snarking at YOU and your choices! We, however, think you're just great, so listen to what we have to say about all of the above, and more! QUICK LINKS

"Side Car" Romain Pilon Falling Grace (Jazz&People, 2022) Romain Pilon, Yoni Zelnik, Jeff Ballard. El autor de la composición es Miles Davis. Tomajazz: © Pachi Tapiz, 2022 ¿Sabías que? Falling Grace se publicó el 4 de marzo de 2022. Es el primer disco del guitarrista Romain Pilon dedicado a recrear standards (y temas no demasiado conocidos de autores muy conocidos). Además de la creación de Miles Davis, también hay composiciones de Kenny Wheeler, Thelonious Monk, J.J. Johnson, Herbie Hancock o Steve Swallow. El músico francés aporta un breve interludio que sirve para separar el disco en dos partes. En el caso del tema elegido, obra de Miles Davis, apareció en la grabación Circle In The Round de Miles Davis, un disco editado en 1979, con temas grabados entre 1955 y 1970. "Side Car" se grabó en 1968 y en ella colaboraron Ron Carter, Herbie Hancock y George Benson. Los compañeros para esta aventura del músico francés son el baterista Jeff Ballard (Brad Mehldau Trio) y el contrabajista Yoni Zelnik (Yonathan Avishai Trio).

Will Vinson is widely regarded as one of the world's premier saxophonist,  London born, New York based.

Will was so generous with his time and his stories of making a career performing, composing and recording music were really relatable. Taking opportunities when they arise, being present in the music scene and turning up has led Will to have this wonderful career as a musician travelling the world and producing 9 CDs.  Having had the pleasure of seeing Will play live here in Adelaide made me understand his incredible talent and his personable down to earth way he communicates on stage and in person. Thank you Will for being on my podcast and we look forward to following your career and hopefully see you performing again in Adelaide.”Tania Ingerson Podcaster/Founder TEA The Entrepreneurial Artist PodcastAny questions please email  ingersontania@mac.com  I would like to acknowledge that music played on my Podcast is an original tune"One thing led to another" by David Innocente, Jazz Musician/Artisthttps://www.innocente.com.au/

As I tell Jeff Ballard in the beginning of our conversation, every time I hear him I'm amazed by the lively sound and feel he gets out of the drums. I think that's something we as musicians all strive for: to have our sounds (and the music in general) be reflective of life itself, to … Continue reading Jeff Ballard

Cumplimos 100 episodios y apagamos una vela musical simbólica con una composición de Abe Rábade titulada "Amor ascensor". El piano de Abe está acompañado por el saxo de Jorge Pardo, la guitarra de Josemi Carmona, el contrabajo de Javier Colina, y la batería de Jeff Ballard. El resto del programa se lo hemos dedicado a Blossom Dearie, ya que con ella y otras voces aniñadas comenzamos nuestro primer episodio que titulamos "Cantar Bajito". Blossom es una de nuestras favoritas y queremos celebrarlo con ella. Revisamos sus primeros discos con el sello Verve, su paso por Les Blue Stars y algunas de sus composiciones en la voz de Carmen McRae y de Amy Cervini. Como Gerry Mulligan dejo escrito en las notas de Birth Of The Cool, "Blossom is Blossom".

Otro día en el paraíso de Follow Me Nº101. Hoy nos acompaña nuestro amigo Juan Carlos Alvarez, un autentico Jazz men Especial Festival de Jazz en el Palau (Valencia) del 8 de Junio al 17 de Julio. Todos los conciertos comienzan a las 20 horas. Os hago un resumen de las estrellas que brillaran con luz propia esos dias- Cabeza de Cartel Pat Metheny dia 4 de Julio-Gwilym Simcok-Teclados, Linda Oh bajo-Antonio Sanchez a la bateria,un dia antes disfrutaremos de uno de los mejores Contrabajista del mundo como es Ron Carter trio-Russsell Malone a la guitarra y Donald Vega al piano- el dia 8 Kenny Garrett Quintet / Al di Meola Opus Tour, sesion doble. dia10 Brad Mehldau Trio- sinplemente espectacular con Larry Grenadier al contrabajo y Jeff Ballard a la bateria-dia 13 al mas laureado saxofonista nacido en Godella,segun su pagina WEB. El impecable trabajo de Sambeat en este proyecto oscila entre la intervención profunda, con elaborados arreglos, y temas interpretados según una transcripción literal, pero siempre de modo fiel al espíritu de Zappa.que asi se llama su ultimo trabajo. Dia 15 Benny Golson Quartet, incansable a sus 81 años, que vigor y que fuerza transmite con su Saxo. Cerrando el festival a otro grandismo Valenciano como es Ximo Tebar y su band presentando su ultimo trabajo "Soleo" Activo como líder desde finales de los 80, la discografía de Ximo Tebar es tan recomendable como diversa.

Dave Brubecks Titel "Far More Drums" mit einem außergewöhnlichen Schlagzeug-Solo. Wie Joe Morello den Sound seines Instruments veränderte, beeindruckte Jeff Ballard schwer.

Minimal Music, Akustik-Pop, Jazz, Flamenco – die musikalische Palette des Mai-Programms der Elbphilharmonie könnte kaum vielfältiger sein. Dementsprechend bunt ist auch die aktuelle Ausgabe des Elbphilharmonie Podcasts, in dem viele KünstlerInnen persönlich zu Wort kommen. Im Zentrum der aktuellen Ausgabe steht dabei das Festival Maximal minimal, das sich vom 11. bis 13. Mai auf die Spuren der Minimal Music macht. Als deren Pionier und einer der einflussreichsten Komponisten des 20. Jahrhunderts gilt zweifellos Steve Reich, dessen Werke den Kern des Festivals ausmachen und der in der Sendung auch zu Wort kommt. In gewisser Weise minimalistisch, was die Instrumentierung angeht, gehen auch Kings Of Convenience zu Werke. Die Norweger, die als Vorreiter der Quiet-Is-The-New-Loud-Bewegung gelten, zelebrieren am 8. Mai die Kunst der leisen Töne im Großen Saal der Elbphilharmonie. Ob das Duo, dessen letztes Album „Declaration Of Dependence“ 2009 erschienen ist, auch neues Material spielt, verrät Sänger Erlend Øye möglicherweise im Gespräch mit unserer Moderatorin Eva Garthe?! Ebenfalls Thema wird der Auftritt von Jonas Kaufmann sein. Zusammen mit dem Pianisten Helmut Deutsch wird der Star-Tenor am 24. Mai in einen Dialog treten und das Format des klassischen Liederabends im Großen Saal neu interpretieren. Bereits gern gesehener Gast in der Elbphilharmonie ist Pianist Brad Mehldau. Der US-Amerikaner, der während des Eröffnungsfestivals erstmals jazzige Töne im Großen Saal erklingen ließ, spannt im Mai zusammen mit Larry Grenadier am Bass und Jeff Ballard am Schlagzeug lyrische Motive in intensiven Improvisationen zu weiten erzählerischen Bögen und lotet damit abermals die Grenzen des zeitgenössischen Jazzpianos aus. In der losen Reihe „Around The World“ wird das Hamburger Konzerthaus regelmäßig zum Ort spannender Entdeckungsreisen - und das über alle stilistischen, ethnischen oder politischen Grenzen hinweg. Im Mai sorgen zum Beispiel die britische Sitarspielerin Anoushka Shankar mit spirituellen Klangeskapaden und der andalusische Flamenco-Nuevo-Pionier José Fernándes Torres alias Tomatito für inspirierende transkulturelle Begegnungen.

El guitarrista Albert Vila va a realizar una pequeña gira por España a mediados de enero de 2017 presentando en distintas ciudades su grabación de 2016 The Unquiet Sky (Fresh Sound New Talent). Acompañado por Shai Maestro, Marko Lohikari y Marc Miralta, actuará en Madrid (Bogui Jazz, jueves 12 de enero), Tenerife (Jazz en el Convento, día 13), Gran Canaria (El Rincón del Jazz, 14), Gijón (Taller de Músicos, 18), y Barcelona (Jamboree, jueves 19). Además dará unas clases magistrales los días 14 y 15, y los días 16 y 17 actuará con su cuarteto en Bruselas y Munich. En abril de 2016 el guitarrista pasaba por HDO 92 y además de hablarnos acerca de su grabación y proyectos, podíamos escuchar varios temas de The Unquiet Sky.

We’re featuring an interview with double bassist Jiri Slavik on Contrabass Conversations this week. Jiri is an extremely accomplished bassist in both jazz and classical styles, as you can see from his biography below, and he gave a truly mesmerizing performance at the 2009 International Society of Bassists Convention. This interview took place just as Jiri was about to leave for Europe, and I feel fortunate to have gotten the chance to chat with him on his first visit to the United States! After the interview, we feature a track titled “Coesistenza” from Jiri’s album Repose. This track also features pianist Fred Thomas (iTunes link).  About Jiri: Jiri Slavik was born in Havirov, Czech Republic, into a teacher’s family with a strong musical tradition. As a child he played the violin, which he exchanged for the double bass around age 13. A year later he moved to Rome, Italy, where he attended St Stephen’s School and eventually also the Santa Cecilia Conservatoire (Massimo Giorgi’s double bass class). In the summer of 2004 he graduated from both of these institutions, always with the highest attainable marks (the seven-year long double bass course at the conservatoire took him three years to finish). After having been offered a full scholarship from the Royal Academy of Music, Jiri moved to London, UK, to pursue his studies, first in classical double bass with Duncan McTier, later on in jazz composition with Barak Schmool. After three years he finished the four years long programme with “First Class Honours”. Since August 2007 he lives as a freelance musician and a composer in Paris, France. He has attended masterclasses under the direction of jazz celebrities such as Dave Holland, Jeff „Tain“ Watts, Larry Grenadier, Jeff Ballard, Kenny Wheeler or contemporary music authorities like Pierre Laurent-Aimard or Peter Maxwell Davies. During his years at the Academy he was the first double bassist of the Concert Orchestra under the direction of Colin Davis or a chosen soloist at the Paganini Festival (2006). With the Ensemble Orchestral de Paris he played Bach’s St Matthew Passion in the Notre Dame or performed in the Théâtre des Champs-Elyseés. As a soloist he has appeared in the Santa Cecilia hall of the auditorium Parco della Musica in Rome or in a program of the Czech Television Koncert na kurtech. With pianist Fred Thomas he made two live recordings for the Czech Radio, as well as the album Repose (F-IRE label, London). His music is in an independant German film production “Oury Jalloh” (www.ouryjalloh-derfilm.de), which won the German Human Rights Film prize, category amateur film, for 2008.

Jason Crane interviews the members of the trio Fly: bassist Larry Grenadier, drummer Jeff Ballard and saxophonist Mark Turner. Fly is very much a collective effort -- the group operates with a leaderless philosophy in which everyone contributes equally. As a result, the trio has come up with some fresh and exciting sounds as they try new combinations and new ways to balance their respective instruments. All three musicians are very much in demand as sidemen, too. A full transcript of this interview is available at AllAboutJazz.com.
