Episode 8: Tim Welcomes internationally acclaimed tenor, Russell Thomas.   Tim drinks a Chimay and Russell a fancy lemonade. Tim and Russell reminisce about their first meeting at The Aspen Music Festival, and how that summer was pivotal for Russell on his artistic path. Russell tells how he fell in love with Opera by flipping through radio stations. They discuss Russell's approach to technique, the importance of being able to ask questions during the learning process, and just how far he's willing to go to work with the right teacher. They chat about what Russell thinks about while singing an aria and his complex internal balancing act. Russell also shares about his ‘big break' and the long process of putting himself out there. Russell speaks about his time at the Metropolitan Opera and the disparity in how he was treated there. He speaks to the impact that James Levine, John Fisher, and Ken Noda had on his artistic development. Russell talks about growing up in a primarily Cuban neighborhood in Miami, coming to understand his racial identity until he entered the classical music community and moved away/lived on his own, and repeatedly being pulled over by the police for driving in his own neighborhood. Russell shares a response to an early audition, and how this comment fueled Russell's drive to succeed. They discuss whether things are changing for BIPOC people and the general futility of hosting panels as a supposed action, the importance of white people joining the conversation about race today, and how white outrage is not enough. Russell talks about his new position at Los Angeles Opera as Artist in Residence. He reveals how he got the job and his vision for his work there. They talk about Russell's hopes for someday running an opera company, how racial disparity in the operatic world affects the makeup of general directors at companies across the country, and how this appointment at impacts his trajectory.

Episode 7: Tim welcomes scholar and author Steven Newcomb for a topical discussion on Steven’s work investigating the Doctrine of Discovery. Together, they dig into the doctrine’s colossal impact on history, including its emergence from the “Right of Discovery” and the Papal Bulls of 1493 and its traumatic and destructive effect on First Nation culture. They delve into the doctrine’s imprint on the American legal system, including references in an Supreme Court opinion by Ruth Badger-Ginsburg, as well as its extensive influence on American Politics, including recent comments by former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum. Steven explains the progression of the papal bulls, outlining the language of domination which is explicitly used in each of them, stripping away the concept of ‘discovery’ to reveal a clear intent of domination. To this day this is still the basis of federal Indian law. The clip from the documentary Steven co-produced, The Doctrine of Discovery: Unmasking the Domination Code, directed by Sheldon Wolfchild can be found here: https://vimeo.com/ondemand/dominationcode Steven talks about the process going forward, the problems inherent to moving ahead when millions of people share an erroneous construct regarding the foundations of current law and practice. He invites us to continue this work by simply talking about the doctrine of discovery and its impact with each other, giving some hints for fostering deep friendly conversation, sharing more about his own ‘intellectual running partners’. Steven reminds us that every part of our culture, language, and modern world have been impacted by this Doctrine of Domination. He invites us to watch his movie and even to host viewing parties.

Episode 5: Tim welcomes world-renowned Tenor and National Treasure Vinson Cole for an unforgettable conversation. They discuss meeting and collaborating at Aspen, how they each came to careers in opera (Vinson began singing at 9!), and what it's like being a successful boy soprano. Vinson tells us all about auditioning for (and winning) the Metropolitan Opera National Council, and how he met Herbert von Karajan with a premiere at the Salzburg Festival. They discuss Vinson's experience of identity during the time of the Martin Luther King, Jr. assassination riots, his experience of explicit racism, and the vital importance of parental guidance and support in the face of inequity. In answering questions from the audience, Vinson dishes on his favorite places to sing, the difference between a good colleague and a great colleague, and his time working with Sir Georg Solti.Link to Di rigori armato il seno, The Italian Tenor's Aria from Der Rosenkavalier, featuring Vinson Cole and Herbert von Karajan at the 1984 Salzburg Festival:www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qpuk2cKECw8 You can find Tim's Website here: timothylongmusic.com Special Thanks to Martha Redbone for her permission to use her song "Medicine Man" for the opening credits.

A "talking circle" is, historically, a way for a community to come together to hash out difficult issues in a respectful fashion. But in Martha Redbone and Aaron Whitby's Talking Circles – a work in progress at the New York Theatre Workshop – it also speaks to the spiral of history where 102 years after a global pandemic and protests over the murders of Black people, who are in the grip of a global pandemic and are protesting the murder of Black people. Have we learned anything? Or are we just talking in circles?"

As NYUAD Arts Centre's 2019-2020 season came to a close, Bill Bragin, its executive art director, and his team began thinking about next season. Coronavirus shut down industries with a brutality that reverberated through the art world. The arts centre was fully aware of the economic impact the pandemic had on artists everywhere. There was the uncertainty about whether there would be in-person performances, but also the potential of working with the newly enforced online medium. The challenges for the art world were vast and varied. But as the world looked for outlets from the pandemic - to watch TV and films, read books, listen to music and much more - it was obvious that creative content was vital in this time of crisis Host Alexandra Chavez looks at how some of the artists from the NYUAD Arts Centre programme tackled the challenges. We hear from 600 Highwaymen, Martha Redbone and Boom.Diwan.

Tim Long chats with Lebanese-American Tenor, Karim Sulayman and catches up on their lives and work since they first met in the baby years of their careers. They share a drink (A nice white wine for Tim and The Bee’s Knees for Karim) and celebrate the success of Karim’s two vocal albums: the Grammy-winning ‘Songs of Orpheus’ and his recent release ‘Where Only Stars Can Hear Us’. They discuss what it takes to self-produce a album, what it takes to win a Grammy and what the after party is like. They share about the importance of nurturing one's passion, the power of inner resilience in artistic development, and how failure can help one to become a more confident creator. Karim dishes about his impressive career as a boy alto in the Midwest and his work with Georg Solti, among many others, which leads to comparing experiences of Kathleen Battle. We take a deeper look at Karim’s activism in the 21st century, and in particular “I Trust You” youtu.be/lCy8Cfvoe6g Karim shares what it was like to stand blindfolded in front of Trump tower, and what it’s like to be on the No Fly List just because of his name. Karim gives some advice on following one’s own intuition as an artist and using the butterfly effect as a lens to value the contributions we as artists make to our shared world.

056: Aaron WhitbyGood morning! This is Play It Like It’s Music. I’m Trevor, thanks for listening.On Wednesday, September 16th of 2020 Music is not content, it’s connection.Today we are blessed to have Aaron Whitby with us. But first here’s a random thought: Music used to be important. And it was a haven for the self important. It still sort of is, but musicians no longer make the same level of impact economically or culturally.It’s not quite running on fumes, but nowadays most of us would be happy for musicmaking to be merely sustainable. Some might even say that being sustainable is better than being important. But guess what? Back in that golden age when music was quote “really important”, it was not sustainable then either. What I mean is that we take our literal life in our hands when we choose to set about making music. It’s a risk, man. We’re actually getting closer to sustainability now, you could say it’s a beautiful time (aside from it being the apocalypse). Most of the time music works out ok if you work hard enough, make decent choices and keep your priorities more or less in line. But it’s not a magic ticket to some rarefied kind of existence where you get to hold yourself above other people. I mean, in America you can run your business however you see fit, but there are two sides to this coin: you find the fan who worships at the altar of the musician they love, and the musician who sometimes seems like they might just be seeking to be worshiped above all else - whose ego may be running the show.I won’t name any of them, but you know the trope. You probably also know that it’s not that simple.Not all musicians are provocateurs, serial abusers, pedophiles, womanizers, drug smugglers, tax cheaters or general get-somethin-for-nuthin types. Nor are we all deadbeats, addicts, vagrants and underearners. Most of the time we start out just wanting to play. Not knowing where the train is actually going, we chose to follow the energy and inspiration to wherever it may lead.But when an artist gets a little traction and starts working with investors (and that’ll be most of the artists you’ve heard of, barring almost none), oftentimes the investor will only stay happy if the artist continually generates energy around themselves, in order to generate attention for the music and get the numbers up so that the investor can profit. It’s not just a label or what have you, but it’s all the members of the artist’s team whose livelihood (and future) depends on those same numbers. It becomes a self-perpetuating cycle: artist “just wants to make music”, gets some help in the form of a band, production team, label etcetera. Then the pressure starts to multiply. Every person added to the team is a new set of mouths to feed and before you know it, the artist has to become a factory of attention-getting tactics. Only some of which are related to creating excellent and satisfying music. They have to meet those numbers or the show falls apart.It’s an obligation entirely separate from the creative process. Folks wonder “where everything went wrong” but it’s part of the design. Basically, the music business will turn you into a pirate, and if you don’t want that to happen then you’re probably better off digging into what you’re really after and why. And if what you want is quote-unquote “real music” then keep listening because today we’re talking to a live one.(Which is good, because I’m about talked out here. )The point is Music is literally the most important thing for us here at the show. You just have to take the music seriously and not take yourself too seriously. The folks on here tend to really bring it.[Photo by Michael Weintrob]So. Aaron Whitby:is an award-winning record producer, composer/songwriter, pianist, engineer and educator born and raised in London, England and a longtime resident of Brooklyn, New York.Whitby is best known for his work with longtime collaborator Martha Redbone, who we heard from last week. Whitby and Redbone are recipients of many awards and are currently developing a musical commissioned by the Public Theater in NYC.[Photo by Molly Magnusson]Mentored by Ohio Player/Funkadelic Walter ‘Junie’ Morrison, Whitby has recorded with; Natalie Cole, George Clinton, Randy Brecker, Lisa Fischer, Tony Trischka, John McEuen, Raul Midon, Neil Sedaka and Rodney Holmes among many others. He has performed with Nona Hendryx, Brian Jackson, Vernon Reid of Living Colour, Ben Sollee, Mino Cinelu and Brooklyn Raga Massive among many others.He and Martha have been stacking up awards and commissions. That’s ongoing.But with Cousin From Another Planet, his debut album as a frontman, Whitby comes full circle to his jazz and funk roots pulling together an amazing cast of friends to realize his musical vision, as described by Greg Tate, “a funk-da-fied jam session feel undergirding tight, knotty jazz-smart progressions”. With tunes inspired by the animated energy and profound innocence of his young son, humorous lyrics that celebrate empathy and empowerment and musicians given the freedom to take the music wherever it feels good. According to Tate, this album is “one of this era’s hardiest re-dedications and festival-tent revival of soulful and exploratory jam-gnocity.” Cousin From Another Planet live onstage is a music and visual experience accompanied by a video artshow by VJ Lady Firefly (who has also worked with Dave Chappelle and The Roots) to capture the colorful, cartoonish and movement-inspired worldview.Like I said, we got a live one here.

055: Martha Redbone[Photo by Christine Jean Chambers]Good Morning! This is Play It Like It’s Music. I’m Trevor, thanks for listening.On Wednesday, September 9th of 2020 Music Is Not Content. It’s connection.It’s summertime and love is in the air. Actually, love is always in the air if you know where to smell. (Whomp whomp. )But for real, you may have been noticing a pattern with my episodes so far this year: there have been several couples in the lineup lately. It’s a thing, definitely. I am fascinated by couples who create music together professionally. I’m fascinated by the dynamics, and I am fascinated by the amazing music they make both together and independently of each other.We are about to continue this trend, and I’m happy to lean into it for this moment while we’re all in quarantine, getting cozy, weathering the storm… sometimes maybe getting a little too close for comfort or perhaps blowing the occasional gasket. Because believe me, there is nobody more intense than musicians. In general and especially in relationship. (That’s a claim you may be able to fact check yourself. I’ll leave it right here in the open.)We have heard from several artists who are also in couples: you can check out our episodes with Katya and Chris from Break Out The Crazy, Celia and Simon from PettyChavez, more recently we had Mark Marshall and Abby Ahmad… and I’m still working on getting some others done with Kieran O’Hare who works and lives with Liz Knowles, Dwight Richter from Dwight and Nicole and a few others we’ve had in the lineup.[photo by Molly Magnusson]Today we’re going to hear from the one and only Martha Redbone, and next week we will hear from the one and only Aaron Whitby. Both of them are stellar musicians: she’s a legit superstar and he’s an incredible pianist, artist and bandleader who also happens to be Martha’s M.D. (That’s M.D. in the musical - not medical - sense. Musical Director. Martha and Aaron create everything together, and when they’re not taking care of business they can be found raising their family in Brooklyn.)[Martha Redbone at the Met Museum Cherokee Day, photo by Don Pollard]But let me take a stab at why I find musical couples so fascinating, because they are. I’m going to hit you with a quote from Peter Thiel*:“The best thing I did as a manager at PayPal was to make every person in the company responsible for doing just one thing…. Most fights inside a company happen when colleagues compete for the same responsibilities.”That’s from his book, Zero To One. *Now don’t bite my head off because I get it, people hate Peter Thiel. They hate him for being a Trump guy, they hate him for pulling the strings all over big tech, spying on everybody, they hate him specifically for taking out Gawker and in general for being a notably cutthroat capitalist. That’s fine, but he’s also pretty interesting and he’s so good at debating that he can usually elucidate his opponent’s point of view better than they can. Anyway, I’m talking about Love and Music, so let’s stick with that. The point is that music is a hustler’s game. Finding love is hard, you all know that. There are a lot of moving parts and a lot of scary choices to make. Finding success in music, I’ll submit, might be even harder. More moving parts! Scarier choices! And many, many “similar responsibilities” for people in close quarters to compete over: you have writing, producing, booking, PR, art direction, day-to-day management… all kinds of stuff, 24-7 that can turn loyal bandmates into a simmering cauldron of discontent. All of that, with no PayPal fortune to fight over either.So the fact that there are people in this world who do both things at once, Love and Music, together is just flat-out amazing to me. I love sharing these moments with members of couples who work in music. One thing that sticks out is how good they are at both supporting each other and staying out of each other’s way. So take that, Peter Thiel.Thanks for letting me get that off my chest, now let’s talk about Martha Redbone.[photo by Ebru Yildiz]Martha Redbone is a Native & African-American vocalist/songwriter/composer/educator. She is known for her unique gumbo of folk, blues and gospel from her childhood in Harlan County, Kentucky infused with the eclectic grit of pre-gentrified Brooklyn. Inheriting the powerful vocal range of her gospel-singing African American father and the resilient spirit of her mother’s Cherokee/Shawnee/Choctaw culture, she broadens the boundaries of American Roots music. With songs and storytelling that share her life experience as a Native and Black woman and mother in the new millennium, Martha gives voice to issues of social justice, bridging traditions from past to present, connecting cultures, and celebrating the human spirit. “The Garden of Love” is her most recent album. It’s an absolutely stunning project that puts the poetry of William Blake to music. She just won a Drama Desk award for Outstanding Music in a Play (beating out the legendary Steve Earle) with an original score in the revival of “for colored girls who have considered suicide/when the rainbow is enuf” at the Public Theater, NYC.She and Aaron have also just been announced as part of this season’s Artistic Instigators series, to develop new original work at the NY Theater Workshop.And in case that’s not enough, Martha Redbone is currently in development with her own new work “Black Mountain Women” at The Public Theater. It is a timely musical about the ongoing environmental destruction of her ancestral homeland in Appalachia told through the lives of 4 generations of women in her matriarchal Cherokee family. I find Martha’s music and performances to be just incredible. I’ve been a fan since the first album and check in on their show as regularly as I can. Her voice is huge and her stage presence is both classy and energetic. She’s powerful in that way where you just feel lucky to be walking on the same planet. Today she’s sharing an amazing and sensitive story about the first time she was ever called upon to sing in a studio, it’s the literal beginning of her career and I almost couldn’t believe what I was hearing.

On this episode of Baring It All with Call Me Adam, on the Broadway Podcast Network, I am recording at The Houdini Museum in NYC with award winning cabarettist performer Molly Pope. Molly is returning to Joe's Pub with a brand new show called Polly Mope. Polly Mope is a wry look inside what can happen when you find yourself stuck alone with yourself on a long, sleepless night. How do you get through the night? Molly Pope faces the literal and the metaphorical question on a nightlong musical mental agility course. Locked in her 6th floor walk-up, this solo musical delves into what she’ll do to make it to the dawn; coping with being a human person, the bi-polarcoaster, and wind chimes. Molly Pope brings her neo-retro musical sensibility to original songs written with Jim Andralis & Larry Krone, Lance Horne, Erato Kremmyda, Brian Nash, Martha Redbone, and music director/collaborator Matt Aument. ***Due to COVID-19 Pandemic Molly's show has been postponed. When a new date is announced, I will post it here along with a ticket link.+++ For more on Molly visit https://www.mollypope.com and follow her Twitter and Instagram! Like what you hear?

As Martha Redbone and Brooklyn Raga Massive prepare to take the stage at Yerba Buena Gardens in San Fransisco this week, we share highlights from our first conversation with Martha and hear her first performance with BRM at the Outside (In)dia Series. This is burning set with Martha Redbone – VocalsAaron Whitby – Keys, PianoMarvin Sewell – GuitarCharlie Burnham – ViolinTony Mason – DrumsFred Cash – BassSameer Gupta – TablaPawan Benjamin – BansuriNeel Murgai – Sitar Special Guests:Soni Moreno – VocalsMichael Gam – Sarod, Percussion Part Cherokee, Choctaw, European and African American, Martha Redbone is a pioneering voice of Appalachian and Native American song. Redbone’s music flows equally from her own unique, award-winning blend of Native American elements with funk and her deep roots in Appalachian folk and Piedmont blues favored by the matriarchy that raised her on a rich sojourn from Clinch Mountain, Virginia to Harlan County, Kentucky and beyond to Brooklyn’s Dodge City-esque mean streets. In this debut collaboration, Redbone was joined by Brooklyn Raga Massive’s community of Indian music-inspired artists for an exploration of Americana and raga intersections.

We get to have a conversation with the great singer and songwriter Martha Redbone.  She'll be collaborating this Friday April 13, 2018 with Brooklyn Raga Massive,as part of the Outside (In)dia Series produced by India Center Foundation, Brooklyn Raga Massive and Lincoln Center.  

The conversations around sexual assault, harassment, and inequality that started last year continued into this one, amid half-baked apologies and the constant, widespread undermining of women’s rights and interests. Less than a day into 2018, actresses and activists teamed up to declare that the clock had run out on toxic masculinity. Two days later, Tina Smith was sworn into office, bringing the number of women currently serving in the Senate to a record-breaking 22. Meanwhile, women all over the world are gearing up to celebrate the anniversary of last year’s march by making this year’s march even bigger. Today — like everyday — we’re celebrating women. First, we’ll hear the story of an activist, survivor and community organizer who finds her voice and the courage to help other women find theirs. Then, we’ll tag along with two recent transplants as they get to know Brooklyn and the women who shaped it with the help of an unconventional guide. And finally, we’ll talk to two artists, each creating work that reflects their culture and borrows from it’s past. New year, new you, girls rule and boys drool. Time’s Up in Brooklyn, USA. ••• Brooklyn, USA is produced and edited by Sachar Mathias and Emily Boghossian, with help from Ariana Rosas. Thanks to Hira Nabi and Paola Messina for helping us decipher the She Map.

MARTHA REDBONE is a leading voice in contemporary Native American music. Her award winning work is recognized by the Smithsonian Institution National Museum of the American Indian. Redbone's musical talent has caught the ears of legends and she has recorded and/or performed with Bonnie Raitt, Pete Seeger, Youssou N'Dour, George Clinton, Rita Coolidge, Randy Brecker and Nona Hendryx. Her new album "The Garden of Love - Songs of William Blake" takes the immortal words of poet William Blake, the great Romantic visionary from 18th century England, and sets them in the Appalachian Mountains, bringing her uniquely soulful voice to hollered melodies, lullabies, ancient chants and inspired hymns. The result, produced by Grammy Award-winning Nitty Gritty Dirt Band founder John McEuen and David Hoffner, is a wondrous folk, country, gospel and blues reading in which the songs feel like timeless mountain classics with lyrics that are strikingly relevant. BEN MILLER BAND is a one-of-a kind trio that combines the frenetic energy of bluegrass, the soul of the delta blues and the haunted spirit of Appalachian mountain music. Band members Ben Miller, Scott Leeper, and Doug Dicharry create a unique and modern sound while continuing the tradition of blending together many different musical styles, which has long been a trait of their native Ozarks in Joplin, Missouri.
