In this episode, we're looking at early 60's Bill alongside Scott LaFaro and Paul Motian, and the four albums they recorded together before LaFaro's tragic death at just 25 years old. From Portrait in Jazz and its cross-over with Miles Davis' Kind of Blue through Sunday at the Village Vanguard and Waltz for Debbie – recorded live on the same day in June 1961.

Waltz for Debby es un álbum en vivo delpianista y compositor de jazz Bill Evans y su trío formado por Evans, el bajista Scott LaFaro y el baterista Paul Motian . Fue lanzado en 1962. El álbum fue el cuarto y último trabajo de la unidad: LaFaro murió en un accidente automovilístico solo diez días después de la fecha en vivo en el Village Vanguard de la que se tomaron Waltz for Debby y su predecesor, Sunday at the Village Vanguard . La pérdida de LaFaro afectó duramente a Evans, y entró en una breve reclusión. Cuando Evans regresó al formato de trío más tarde en 1962, fue con Motian y el bajista Chuck Israels . [ 2 ] La canción principal, un retrato musical de la sobrina de Evans, se convirtió en un elemento básico de su repertorio en vivo en años posteriores. Originalmente apareció como una pieza para piano solo en el álbum debut de Evans, New Jazz Conceptions . Sigue siendo la que probablemente sea la canción más conocida de Evans, [ cita requerida ] una que tocaría a lo largo de su carrera. La reedición en CD del álbum contiene varias tomas descartadas. Las grabaciones de todo el día se publicaron en 2005 con el título The Complete Village Vanguard Recordings, 1961 . El álbum es ampliamente considerado como uno de los mejores del canon de Evans, y el tipo de interacción emotiva entre los músicos que en algunos puntos parecía casi deconstruida ha servido como modelo para la interpretación en trío con piano. [ 9 ] El crítico de AllMusic Thom Jurek escribió: "Mientras que el álbum Sunday at the Village Vanguard se centró en material donde LaFaro solos prominentemente, esto es mucho más un retrato del trío en esas fechas... De las muchas grabaciones que Evans publicó, las dos fechas de Vanguard y Explorations son las expresiones máximas de su legendario trío". [ 4 ] C. Michael Bailey de All About Jazz escribió: "Junto con el prodigio del bajista Scott LaFaro y el baterista Paul Motian, Evans perfeccionó su visión democrática de la cooperación del trío, donde todos los miembros actuaron con perfecta empatía y telepatía... Son estas actuaciones, actualmente disponibles como Sunday at The Village Vanguard y Waltz for Debby, las que comprenden la mejor grabación de jazz en vivo número uno en esta serie actual" El grupo Libérica, liderado por el contrabajista Manel Fortià, nos presenta su segundo disco, ‘ALÉ – Iberian Chants’, con una banda de lujo donde destaca la incorporación de Alba Careta y las colaboraciones estelares de Antonio Lizana y Carles Dénia. Tras el reconocimiento obtenido con el anterior disco, Libérica ha podido tocar con gran éxito de público en escenarios tan emblemáticos como el Bimhuis de Ámsterdam, Lantaren Venster de Rotterdam, Festival de Jazz de Vitoria, Castello Sforzzezzo de Milán, Budapest Music Center o en el Unterfahrt de Munich, entre otros. Ahora con un sonido más maduro nos presentan ‘ALÉ – Iberian Chants’, un homenaje a los cantos libres y a los cantos de trabajo tanto del norte como del sur y a las fuertes conexiones que existen en la Península Ibérica, siempre buscando puntos en común entre la canción tradicional catalana, valenciana y el flamenco. Las voces del cantaor catalán Pere Martínez, el valenciano Carles Dénia y el gaditano Antonio Lizana, representan estos mundos coexistentes dentro de la Península que se encuentran en Libérica de una forma orgánica y libre gracias al jazz. La trompeta y la voz de la maravillosa Alba Careta y el saxo de la joven y talentosa Aina López, aportan aire fresco y nueva energía. En la base rítmica encontramos al pianista Max Villavecchia, la batería de Raphael Pannier y Oriol Roca, y el propio Manel Fortià en el contrabajo que, desde la retaguardia, dirige el barco. Un recorrido musical por la Península de este a oeste y de norte a sur a través de sus cantos y siempre al servicio de la música. Paseamos por tierras valencianas y descubrimos las Malagueñas, las Granaínas, los Cants de Batre… mientras seguimos con un pie en Cataluña y el otro en Andalucía, fusionando canciones de cuna y otras músicas emblemáticas de estas culturas, muy bien interpretadas por la voz principal de Pere Martínez, que nos seduce demostrando una gran variedad de registros y una facilidad innata para adaptarlas a nuestros tiempos. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Con la morte in un tragico incidente del contrabbassista Scott LaFaro, nel '61 si chiude la magica esperienza del trio di Bill Evans con LaFaro e con Paul Motian alla batteria: per il pianista è un colpo durissimo, artisticamente e umanamente. Una nuova felice stagione del trio di Bill Evans si apre nel '66, quando Evans scopre un giovane bassista portoricano, Eddie Gomez, che sarebbe rimasto per undici anni accanto al pianista. Per un certo periodo il trio fu completato alla batteria da un altro giovane portento, Jack DeJohnette (è DeJohnette che figura nel live a Montreux del '68): la maggiore estroversione di Gomez e DeJohnette rispetto ad altri che li avevano preceduti al basso e alla batteria conferisce una maggiore estroversione all'insieme della musica del trio di Evans, apprezzata dal pubblico e dalla critica. Poi nell'autunno del '68 DeJohnette lascia per nuove avventure - sarà con Miles Davis nella svolta elettrica del trombettista - e viene rimpiazzato da Marty Morell, e anche con lui rimane questa maggiore estroversione, lo slancio, la freschezza giovanile che sentiamo anche a Pescara nel '69...Come bonus della puntata un brano della Big Band di Gil Cuppini registrato all'Universal Club di Marina di Carrara nell'estate del '68. Con il batterista la crème del jazz italiano dell'epoca: fra gli altri Soana, Valdambrini, Piana, Masetti, Basso, Volonté, Azzolini....

In the latest edition of Jazz Beat, Tom Reney explores the legacy of the bassist Scott LaFaro, who was a leading innovator in modern jazz and a member of the Bill Evans Trio. LaFaro was tragically killed in an auto accident in 1961 at age 25, and he’s the subject of an outstanding biography by his sister Helene LaFaro-Fernandez. Tom’s appreciation of LaFaro includes numerous samples of his music.

Tonight's Jazz Feature is possibly the final recording by virtuoso bassist Gary Peacock. Mr Peacock has been at the forefront of this music for many years and has explored many avenues of this music. He is perhaps best known for his work with Keith Jarrett, Jack DeJohnette in that magical and profound trio. Peacock has ventured out on his own as leader a few times and this album will be perhaps his final statement as he is now due to age and hearing loss retired from active playing. This thoughtful and introspective recording was done in July of 2014 and features the piano of Marc Copland and the drums of Joey Baron. 7 of the eleven compositions are by Peacock and he is a marvelous composer. Copland wrote two and Baron, one. Peacock honours his contemporary and late friend bassist Scott LaFaro with a version of LaFaro's "Gloria's Step". All in al this album is a wonderful way to wind up a stellar career........"Now This" will be memorable.

Dr. Vernick explores the career of jazz bassist Scott LaFaro who is known for revolutionizing the role of his instrument. The 4th and final segment documents the engagement that he played with the Bill Evans Trio at the Village Vanguard within two weeks of his untimely death in a car accident. Rather than showcase LaFaro's individual performance, Gordon emphasizes the musical interaction that occues between the group as a whole since he feels that is what made this night particularly notable and memorable.

Dr. Vernick explores the career of jazz bassist Scott LaFaro who is known for revolutionizing the role of his instrument. In the year 1960, LaFaro's playing received wide acclaim on the unconventional version of jazz standard Autumn Leaves which he covered with the Bill Evans Trio. It was in this year that he also contributed to Ornette Coleman's Free Jazz album which, for better or worse, would greatly influence the course of jazz history.

Dr. Vernick explores the career of jazz bassist Scott LaFaro who is known for revolutionizing the role of his instrument. The second segment Gordon presents examples of LaFaro's work with bands both big and small leading up to the group he formed with Ornette Coleman and Eric Dolphy which helped launch the free jazz movement.

Killed in a car accident aged just 25, Scott LaFaro was widely regarded as the most technically gifted bassist of the 20th Century. His records with Bill Evans are among the finest jazz trio discs ever made. Bassist Dave Green joins Alyn Shipton to pick the highlights of these, and to trace the other significant records in LaFaro's brief but brilliant career.
