In this episode of MFM Speaks Out, Dawoud Kringle comes out of retirement to present a 2023 retrospective. We will share some of the content we brought to you in 2023, and  enjoy a few other surprises as well.   Our guest for the January episode was Haana.  Haana is a violinist, vocalist, electronic music artist, visual performer, and entirely self-contained as a one-woman orchestra. She played with Kanye West, and Alvin Ailey, as well as festivals such as Joshua Tree Festival and Coachella and others in the US, Canada, UAE, and Australia, Barack Obama's inaugural ball, and at Michael Jordan's wedding. Haana has endorsement deals with Ableton, Native Instruments, Even Headphones (manufactured by Blue Microphones), and Realist Violins. She appeared in ads for Intel, Harvey Nichols, Nike, Ferrari, and Apple Computers. In addition, she has experience as a film composer and does artist mentorship/marketing, branding, and production consultation.  In February, MFM board member and co-producer of this very podcast Adam Reifsteck joined us for a very fascinating discussion. Adam is a New York-based composer, electronic music artist, producer, entrepreneur, and music activist. He writes for small ensembles, produces electronic music, and performs improvised group compositions on Wi-Fi-connected laptops. He has collaborated with string quartets, university choirs, and visual and electronic artists. His approach to composition includes elements of improvisation. He is a recipient of grants from the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, the Irving S. Gilmore Foundation, and the Kalamazoo (MI) Community Foundation. His music has been performed by the Attacca Quartet, Amernet String Quartet, Cadillac Moon Ensemble, Duquesne University Chamber Singers, Flutronix, Gaudete Brass Quintet, Mana Saxophone Quartet, Western Michigan University Chorale, and many other ensembles. Adam is also an active recording engineer and producer whose studio alias SONIC FEAR has become synonymous with lush, genre-bending sounds—from dance floor-ready tracks to downtempo meditations. He is the founder and CEO of Teknofonic Recordings, an independent record label and artist development platform providing electronic musicians with learning resources, networking opportunities, and career support. Adam holds a master's of music degree in composition from Western Michigan University and a bachelor's of music in music technology from Duquesne University. He is a member of Broadcast Music Inc., the Society of Composers and Lyricists, the Recording Academy, the Audio Engineering Society, and Musicians for Musicians. Our March episode was a landmark. We interviewed Keyna Wilkins, the first MFM member from Australia. Wilkins holds a Master of Music Composition at Sydney Conservatorium, studied composition, classical and jazz piano, and classical flute with several prestigious instructors, and intuitive conceptual improvisation with Tibetan Buddhist musician Tenzin Cheogyal. holds an MA in Flute Performance at Bristol University (UK) in 2008. She is known as a soloist and leader of cutting-edge ensembles and has written over 60 compositions, including 4 major orchestral works. Her works have been commissioned and/or performed by ensembles such as The Metropolitan Orchestra, Syzygy Ensemble, Elysian Fields, The Sydney Bach Society, and many others. She has released 9 albums of original music on all streaming platforms including 4 solo albums. Wilkins is also an Associate Artist with the Australian Music Centre and has five tunes in the Australian Jazz Realbook. She also writes music for films and theatre including the short film "Remote Access" which won Best Short Film at the Imagine This International Film Festival in New York in 2019 and her works are featured on ABC, Triple J, Fine Music FM, Cambridge Radio, SOAS London and many more. Her music is published by Wirripeng and she is a member of Musicians for Musicians. MFM member Sylvian Leroux was our guest in April. Sylvian is a flutist, saxophonist, guitarist, composer, arranger, bandleader, educator, inventor, and prominent member of Musicians for Musicians.  Sylvain Leroux grew up in Montreal where he studied classical flute at Vincent d'Indy; and improvisation and composition in New York at the Creative Music Studio where he attended classes by luminaries Don Cherry, the Art Ensemble of Chicago, Karl Berger, Cecil Taylor, and many others. A pioneer of African/Jazz collaborations, Sylvain is a foremost player of the Fula flute, the traditional flute from Guinea. He was selected as “Rising Flute Star” by the Downbeat Magazine Critics' Poll for many years, achieving the #2 spot in 2019. As a bandleader, he brought traditional West African music to Zankel Hall with his Fula Flute Ensemble and held the fort for more than a decade at New York City's Zinc Bar with his African Jazz group “Source”. His 2002 CD “Fula Flute" achieved cult status, and stimulated a worldwide interest in the instrument. His 2012 album “Quatuor Creole” was hailed as “a perfect contemporary music release.” He curated New York's “Griot Summits” which featured performances by 25 West African griots from five countries. He has performed and recorded with Emeline Michel, Adam Rudolph, Karl Berger, Hassan Hakmoun, Billy Martin, and many West African stars. As a maker and seller of Fula flutes around the world, he invented and patented the Qromatica, a Fula flute capable of chromatic functionality. This led him to initiate "L'ecole Fula Flute", a music literacy project that graduated many excellent young flutists who are now re-energizing an endangered flute tradition. Our May 2023 episode featured Mark Chimples, a.k.a. Mark C. Mark is the guitarist and synthesizer player with Live Skull. Formed in 1982, Live Skull is considered by many aficionados to be the quintessential New York City noise band. Rising concurrently with bands such as Sonic Youth and Swans, Live Skull helped define the post-No Wave underground "noise rock" in the 1980s music scene in New York City. Over the following decades, Live Skull released five albums and three EPs with a rotating cast of 11 members, all of whom added new ideas to the group's evolving sound. Themes of struggle and chaos permeated and inspired their music. Their constant progression inspired New York Times critic Robert Palmer to call them “as challenging, as spiritually corrosive, and ultimately as transcendent as Albert Ayler's mid-'60s free-jazz or the implacable drone-dance of the early Velvet Underground. It's one of the essential sounds of our time." Music on this episode:Haana - Bison RougeAdam Reifsteck / Sonic Fear - AuroraKeyna Wilkins - Floating in SpaceSylvain Leroux - In Walked BudLive Skull - Party ZeroSpaghetti Eastern - Jungle BlueArturo O'Farrill and the Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra - Amidst the Fire and WhirlwindDave Liebman - Journey Around Truth  SoSaLa - Dadada Dadada DaaDawoud Kringle - Keep Trying CreditsProducer and host: Dawoud KringlePublisher: Musicians For Musicians (MFM), Inc. and Sohrab Saadat LadjvardiTechnical support: Adam ReifsteckLinksBe sure to follow and tag MFM on Facebook ([https://www.facebook.com/M4M.org/] and Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/mfm_association/).

Alla metà degli anni sessanta Don Cherry incide i primi album a suo nome, fra cui un capolavoro del free come Symphony for Improvisers. Poi la musica di Don Cherry, che si divide ormai fra Stati Uniti ed Europa, comincia ad esorbitare dal jazz convenzionalmente inteso, e a nutrirsi di una prospettiva multiculturale. Nel '68 - anno per lui molto intenso - Cherry lavora fra l'altro con una formazione, la New York Total Music Company, di cui è nominalmente l'intestatario, ma che in effetti è una impresa con un carattere più collettivo rispetto ai gruppi che Cherry ha guidato alla metà del decennio: e la musica ha una fisionomia meno jazzistica e più aperta e indeterminata. Costituita con partner di altissimo livello - Steve Lacy al sax soprano, Karl Berger al vibrafono e al pianoforte, Kent Carter al contrabbasso e Jacques Thollot alla batteria - e con Cherry alla cornetta e al flauto di bambù, l'effimera esperienza della Total Music Company è una tappa importante nell'evoluzione della musica di Cherry nella seconda metà degli anni sessanta. La New York Total Music Company non ha mai inciso e non ne esistono registrazioni ufficiali, ma qualche anno fa è emerso, pubblicato in Cd e Lp irregolari, un prezioso live del marzo '68, registrato a Francoforte per una trasmissione radiofonica dalla emittente tedesca Hessicher Rundfunk.

A remembrance of Karl Berger, the stunning new album by Magos Herrera [pictured], and a whole bunch of projects you can find along the Johannesburg-New York-Chicago expressway. The playlist features also Sam Butler; Kirk Knuffke, Jay Anderson, Matt Wilson; Gretchen Parlato, Lionel Loueke; Magos Herrera; Ken Stubbs; Asher Gamedze; Good Intentions; Scree; Malcolm Jiyane Tree-o & Grandmaster CAP. Detailed playlist at https://spinitron.com/RFB/pl/17442424/Mondo-Jazz (up to "Surrender Is Easier Said Than Done"). Happy listening!

Dopo il ritorno nel '70 da Parigi, le strade di Leo Smith e Anthony Braxton si erano separate. Nell'ottobre del '74 però Smith è di nuovo in studio di incisione con Braxton, per un brano in trio con Richard Teitelbaum (negli anni sessanta a Roma uno degli animatori di Musica Elettronica Viva) che viene pubblicato nell'album di Braxton Trio and Duet. Nel febbraio del '76 poi Smith è di nuovo con Anthony Braxton per l'incisione dell'album di Braxton Creative Music Orchestra 1976; la formazione è molto ampia, oltre venti musicisti, e qualificatissima, praticamente una all stars (fra i componenti Roscoe Mitchell, Jon Faddis, George Lewis, Muhal Richard Abrams, Frederic Rzewski, Teitelbaum, Karl Berger, Dave Holland, Barry Altschul), le composizioni sono di Braxton, ma Smith ha un ruolo di rilievo in questo album che è un lavoro molto significativo nella produzione di Braxton degli anni settanta: suona in due dei sei brani dell'album, ma dirige l'orchestra in altri tre.

Ornette Coleman was renowned for dispensing with the rules of Jazz improvisation.  So can Ornette's concept be taught? Even institutionalized? That was the question before Ornette and fellow musicians Karl Berger and Ingrid Sertso in the early Seventies.  The answer? Oh yes, it can. You bet it can!  Institutionalized with all of its infinite horizons still in view.     The Creative Music Studio, in Woodstock, NY, became a learning center, a nexus point for emerging improvisers, a concert producer... As founding advisory board member Buckminster Fuller might have said, a verb rather than a noun.  For a dozen years, CMS pointed the way to undiscovered lands and provided the means and directions for getting there.  Its impact decades later is undiminished and certainly not forgotten by the many who passed through it.  You will find quite a number of these folks named in any evaluation of today's most imaginative improvisers.    Karl Berger and Ingrid Sertso joined host Mitch Goldman in a Deep Focus on the history of CMS in 2012, complete with ear-opening, never-before-heard live recordings.     #WKCR #DeepFocus #CreativeMusicStudio #KarlBerger #IngridSertso #MitchGoldman #JazzRadio #JazzPodcast #JazzInterview #Jazz #CreativeMusic   Photo credit: Mitch Goldman - copyright 1982

After focusing on Enrico Rava's discography as leader, this week we explore his more than five decades of work as co-leader & sideman. The statuture of an artist can be measured not only through the albums s/he has recorded but also by the caliber of the musicians he has played with. There are not many who can claim to have collaborated with such a remarkable and diverse range of musicians like Cecil Taylor, Archie Shepp, Lee Konitz, Gianluigi Trovesi, Franco D'Andrea, Henri Texier, Aldo Romano, Marc Ducret, and Gato Barbieri, to name just a few. During the first part of the show we focus on his work in Europe.

It was a proud moment for the Major Scale to have the chance to speak with Karl Berger. Active since the 1960s, Berger has forged a career as a composer and vibist with an ear for talent, arranging, and bringing a sense of melody and groove to the avant-garde. Taking a cue from his first encounter with Don Cherry, jazz's legendary gypsy traveller and inventor of World Beat. Berger has recorded under his own leadership with luminaries like Carla Bley, Ornette Coleman, and Lee Konitz – as well being tapped to enrich the music of Jeff Buckley, Natalie Merchant, and even Britney Spears! The Da Capo Trio are an unsigned group with an amazing and fresh take on one of the basics: the jazz trio. Drums, bass, and the Fender Rhodes piano sound get a 21st century treatment with dazzling virtuosity and accessibility. With their set of originals, standards (Oleo), and surprising arrangements (Pat Matheny), classic jazz jargon says it best here with the Da Capo Trio "so far out, that they're in."

ABOUT THE MAJOR SCALE: Your attention please to a new program that celebrates and takes a fresh and bold look at the great American art form- JAZZ!!! The Major Scale is the title, the motto and the mission are, Jazz- past, present, future, and everything in between. A lot of focus will be on new and fresh sounds, deep cuts, closer looks at underrated artists, taking a different look at some of the titans of the genre, and getting the two cents worth from a number of surprise guests and sources. The Major Scale can boast amongst it's guests- legends like Herbie Hancock, Tom Scott, and Ahmad Jamal. The up and coming and the underrated-Kamasi Washington, Mia Doi Todd, Michael Blake. Fresh perspectives and commentary from the likes of Rock legend Al Kooper, who weighed in on the gospel. From The New Yorker, Amanda Petrusich expounds on her article about the movement to rename the Williamsburg Bridge in honor of Sonny Rollins. We explore the Soul-Jazz experiments of the Rascals.

Plus Thundercat, Henry Mancini, Ghostface Killah, Jaimie Branch, Nels Cline, Badbadnotgood, Cecil Taylor, and more get pick up on the Major Scale radar.

El saxofonista Ivo Perelman ha publicado los volúmenes uno al seis de The Art Of The Improv Trio en el sello Leo Records. En HDO 177 escuchamos improvisaciones de todas y cada una de estas grabaciones. En ellas está acompañado por los bateristas Gerald Cleaver y Whit Dickey; Joe Morris (como contrabajista y guitarrista); el contrabajista William Parker; los pianistas Karl Berger y Matthew Shipp; y el violista Mat Maneri. Las grabaciones, registradas en estudio entre 2015 y 2016, muestran el magnífico entendimiento del artista brasileño con sus compañeros de grabación. Los seis CD (disponibles individualmente), aparecen publicados por el siempre inquieto sello Leo Records. © Pachi Tapiz, 2016 HDO es un podcast editado, producido y presentado por Pachi Tapiz.

Toda la información en http://www.tomajazz.com/web/?p=23742. El saxofonista (y también pintor) Ivo Perelman continúa con su incansable actividad discográfica en Leo Records. En abril de 2016 publica cinco nuevas grabaciones que hacen que sean ya más de 25 referencias las publicadas en el sello dirigido por Leo Feigin en los últimos cinco años. En formato de dúo (Corpo junto al pianista Matthew Shipp, Blue con el guitarrista Joe Morris, The Hictchhiker acompañado por el veterano vibrafonista Karl Berger), o en cuarteto (Soul con Shipp, Michael Bisio y Whit Dickey, Breaking Point secundado por Mat Maneri, Morris –aquí ejerciendo de contrabajista-, y Gerald Cleaver), la música se mueve por los terrenos de la libre improvisación. Este es un terreno en el que el músico brasileño se mueve con una gran comodidad. A ello le ayuda el estar acompañado por media docena de músicos (el único con el que tiene una relación menos asentada es con Berger), que han sido sus compañeros en mil batallas. Libre improvisación es aquí a libertad para crear, para dejar paso a melodías, para variar la intensidad de la propuesta; para dejarse influenciar por el blues o melodías de carácter infantil (¿o es folklórico?); y también –importantísimo- para que la música no se extienda innecesariamente . © Pachi Tapiz, 2016 HDO es un podcast editado, producido y presentado por Pachi Tapiz
