This week on Jazz After Dinner, Joe features pianist McCoy Tyner from his 1987 Who's Who in Jazz recording, “ Live At The Musicians Exchange Cafe.”
Segunda parte del Especial Monográfico dedicado al batería Al Foster donde recorreremos sus primeros álbumes como líder y a la vez, el comienzo de diferentes colaboraciones, la más destacada junto a McCoy Tyner, en ausencia de Miles Davis que se recupera física y mentalmente en su retiro, entre 1975 y 1981, provocado por el exceso de trabajo y el uso y abuso de las drogas.Finalmente en 1981 Miles Davis vuelve a la escena musical y contará con Al Foster en su vuelta, completamente renovado y sano. La colaboración durará unos cuantos álbumes en los 80 hasta que el batería decide continuar su propio camino, lejos del abrigo del universo Davis.Al Foster seguirá trabajando sin parar a lo largo de los siguientes años, en multitud de proyectos entre los que destacaremos sus colaboraciones con Masabumi Kikuchi, Joe Henderson, Art Pepper, con el ya mencionado McCoy Tyner y también al lado de Randy Brecker.
Tercera parte y final del Especial Monográfico dedicado a la trayectoria del gran Al Foster, en la que repasaremos la etapa final de su carrera, desde 1988 hasta el 2024, escuchando estupendas colaboraciones con músicos como David Kikoski, Eddie Gomez, Michel Petrucciani, Roy Hargrove, Dave Liebman y Richie Beirat y Quest, de nuevo junto a McCoy Tyner, con Michael Stern, los Scolohofo de Joe Lovano, John Scofield y Dave Holland, Bruce Barth y su trío, Charlie Haden y Joe Henderson, Jorge Rossy y su estupendo Vibes Quintet, su último álbum grabado como líder, Reflections de 2022 y su último trabajo junto a Peter Bernstein, Brad Mehldau y Vicente Archer, Better Angels del 2024, con el que cerraremos este repaso a la trayectoria y música de uno de los grandes.Muchas gracias por tanto y tan bueno Mr. Foster!

Альбом Snap Happy - пятый по счёту студийный альбом джазового пианиста и композитора Greg Murphy на лейбле Whaling City Sound и его восьмое лидерское издание. Джаз - это музыка выражения, которае стремится к равенству и процветает в близости к сотрудничеству и инклюзивности. Джаз преодолевает невзгоды, вдохновляет импровизацию и празднует жизнь, — говорит автор.Состав:Greg Murphy - фортепиано, клавишные Fender Rhodes и синтезаторБасс - Obasi AkotoУдарные - Steve JohnsГости:Гитарист - Mark Whitfield (три трека)Вокалистка Sy Smith (одна песня)Стили сочетают straight-ahead, его я обозначаю просто одним словом #jazz плюс #fusion и free jazz, который отмечу хэштегом #contemporaryjazz. Энергичная, динамичная манера исполнения с перкуссионным пиано в духе McCoy Tyner и мощной ритм-секцией.12 треков альбома содержат джазовые стандарты, их современные интерпретации и три оригинальные композиции (длительность 1 час и 7 минут). Титульная Snap Happy - темповый фьюжн, Equality - Равенство с эстафетными импровизациями каждого музыканта и Proximity - ритмическое исследование с перкуссией.Парочка не моих тезисов:Хороший темп, виртуозность и умение сочетать технику и лиричность.Энергичный трио-джем вперемешку с более спокойными моментами.Трио проявляет себя как «одно из самых универсальных пиано-трио ныне».Коммерческие описания подчёркивают сочетание классики и оригинальности, жизнерадостный тон - с «весёлым» названием не только в смысле настроения, но и в технике игры.В итоге получился живой, разносторонний микс джазовых стилей, в котором Мёрфи демонстрирует как техническое мастерство, так и эмоциональную глубину. Благодаря сильной ритм-секции и удачным гостям, альбом не перегружает слушателя сложной музыкой - напротив, он радует и захватывает. Рекомендуется как поклонникам традиционного инструментального джаза, так и любителям более рисковых, энергичных импровизаций.СЛУШАТЬ АЛЬБОМ - https://album.link/i/1805639773ЧИТАТЬ - https://jazzquad.ru/index.pl?act=PRODUCT&id=6906Лучший трек альбома в плей-листе JAZZ по-русски 8 на AppleMusic и SpotifyПоставь лайк ❤️ и подпишись на канал JAZZ по-русски https://t.me/discor

Big Fat Five: A Podcast Financially Supported by Big Fat Snare Drum
Welcome back to Drummers on Drumming…a podcast powered by Big Fat Snare Drum. I'm back with another installed of Big Fat Five — a segment of the podcast where we dive into the five records that shaped the way great drummers approach their craft. My name is Ben Hilzinger and today's guest is someone whose playing and educational work has impacted me personally in a big way. David Garibaldi is not only the legendary drummer of Tower of Power, but his book Future Sounds has been one of my go-to practice tools ever since my good friend Sarab Singh first turned me onto it. In this conversation, David shares the five records that shaped his unmistakable sound and approach to rhythm. I'm so honored to have him on — let's get into it. I hope you enjoy my chat with David Garibaldi. Cheers! --- Get Your Copy of the Drummers on Drumming Book Today!
Listen to an interview with legendary jazz saxophonist and composer Gary Bartz. Bartz has performed with Charles Mingus, Max Roach, Art Blakey, and McCoy Tyner. In 1970, Bartz joined Miles Davis' band, contributing to the seminal Live-Evil sessions. But its Bartz work as a bandleader during the 1970s that cemented his reputation as a jazz icon, from his recordings with the Mizell Brothers, to performances with his group Ntu Troop. A two-time Grammy Award winner, Bartz was recently named an NEA Jazz Master by the National Endowment for the Arts.
(S4 Ep18) The Real McCoy (Blue Note) with guest Steve Myerson October 1967, Recorded April 21, 1967 The Real McCoy (1967) is a landmark album by jazz pianist McCoy Tyner, marking his first solo release after leaving John Coltrane's legendary quartet. With a stellar lineup featuring tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson, bassist Ron Carter, and drummer Elvin Jones, the album showcases Tyner's unique modal jazz style, blending African rhythmic influences and his signature wide interval voicings. The album's compositions, all written by Tyner wrote, demonstrate his incredible range as a pianist and composer, with tracks like "Passion Dance" and "Contemplation" now regarded as jazz standards. The interplay between the musicians is dynamic, with Henderson's fluid solos, Carter's solid bass work, and Jones's explosive drumming providing a perfect backdrop for Tyner's improvisations. The album balances uptempo tracks, like "Four by Five," with slower, more meditative pieces, such as "Search for Peace," highlighting Tyner's ability to navigate diverse moods and textures. The Real McCoy is widely praised for its deep emotional resonance and technical brilliance, solidifying McCoy Tyner as one of his generation's most influential jazz pianists.Signature Tracks: "Passion Dance", "Contemplation", "Four By Five" Full Album YouTube Spotify Playlist YouTube Spotify
Léa Freire - compositora, flautista, pianista, arranjadora e criadora do selo Maritaca - está comemorando 50 anos de carreira. Para homenagear a artista, um documentário sobre seu trabalho e uma apresentação de flauta e piano estão previstos nesta quinta-feira (3), em Paris. O evento faz parte da Temporada França Brasil 2025. Em “A Música Natureza de Léa Freire”, o diretor Lucas Weglinski desenha o percurso da artista, um talento burilado desde cedo, começando com aulas de piano erudito aos 7 anos. Aos 16, Léa Freire passou para o violão popular ao conhecer a escola CLAM (Centro Livre de Aprendizagem Musical), dirigida pelo Zimbo Trio, a quatro quadras de onde ela morava. Na sequência, ela adotou a flauta transversal como instrumento de predileção.Um encontro inusitado dentro de um Fusca selou a amizade de Léa Freire com Filó Machado, instrumentista, compositor, cantor e compositor. “A gente começou a tocar junto e ficava andando de flauta e violão pela madrugada em São Paulo. Imagina, hoje em dia nem pensar, né? E a gente tocava nas escadarias da [avenida] 9 de Julho, que hoje virou um banheiro público, na Praça Roosevelt”, conta Léa. “Tinha uns mendigos que ficavam dormindo ali de dia, de noite, quando a gente estava tocando. E tinha uns que gostavam, outros que mandavam a gente parar”, ri a artista. A dupla ensaiava na praça porque a quitinete de Filó era pequena demais. “Tinha que abrir a janela para trocar de camisa, de tão pequena”, conta.O mundo de Léa Freire naquela época, entre a rua Augusta e praça Rossevelt, era de bares de música ao vivo, toda noite, das 22h às 4h da manhã. Outro encontro chave foi com Alaíde Costa, que acolheu Léa em sua casa durante algum tempo, pois a família da flautista não aceitava esse estilo de vida. Com Alaíde e Filó, Léa tocou para crianças da Febem, um sistema carcerário para menores extinto em 2006. “As crianças ficavam abandonadas, sem pai nem mãe, e não podiam sair, ficando à mercê de todo tipo de abuso”, lembra.No começo dos anos 1980, Léa também foi beber na fonte americana, estudar na mítica escola Berklee, de Boston. Também foi ver os mestres ao vivo, como Wayne Shorter e McCoy Tyner, entre outros, nos bares de Nova York, ouvindo na plateia ou mesmo do lado de fora. Mas o rigor do inverno afugentou Léa, que fez a mochila e foi descendo pela América do Sul.MisoginiaTanto Léa quanto outras artistas entrevistadas no documentário de Weglinski falam sobre o machismo no mundo da música. Como era desbravar a selva de bares paulistanos durante a madrugada? “Meu apelido era sargento Freire, não à toa, sou imune a essas violências”, explica. "Não que não tenha sido vítima." Ela conta que sofreu todos os tipos de abusos misóginos, desde mãos apalpando suas pernas enquanto tocava até cantadas abusadas.Ela acha que hoje a situação está melhor para as mulheres, pois elas são mais numerosas no meio musical. “É uma profissão muito competitiva, então com mais mulheres, fica mais leve. Em São Paulo, tem até uma big band só de mulheres que se chama Jazzmin's e que é muito legal”, conta.Uma virada de chave aconteceu com um hiato na carreira durante 11 anos. Depois de ter o segundo filho, foi informada de que tinha direito a quatro meses de licença no bar onde trabalhava. “Fiquei dois. Voltei. Já estava despedida. Aí cansei." Léa resolveu estudar administração de empresas e virou diretora de uma grande empresa. Mas o estresse desse mundo acabou levando a artista a um burnout.Seguindo conselhos médicos de fazer o que lhe dava prazer, Léa voltou-se para o piano e à composição. E criou o selo Maritaca. "Tem cantor, tem estrangeiro, tem tudo. É uma avacalhação, mas tudo bem, desde que o foco seja a música instrumental”, explica.Léa tem vários projetos em curso, mas revela um desejo, “o de tocar em um puteiro”. Por quê? “Porque eu ia ficar só observando, tocando, ensaiando, ninguém prestando atenção, já pensou?”.DocumentárioEm "A Música Natureza de Léa Freire", lançado em 2022, Lucas Weglinski trabalha com imagens de arquivo da artista e depoimentos de colegas, como Filó Machado e Alaíde Costa. "Eu comecei a trabalhar com a Léa no primeiro disco de piano solo dela, chamado 'Cine Poesia'. E daí eu comecei a filmar as apresentações musicais dela e cenas do cotidiano", conta o diretor. "E isso começou a me dar uma vontade enorme de fazer um filme sobre ela, principalmente vendo ela fazendo um sucesso enorme na Europa, no Japão, nos Estados Unidos e tendo ainda que ser apresentada na própria cidade que a gente vive", explica Weglinski, que está acompanhando a artista em Paris. Em Paris, Léa Freire se apresenta no Théatre de la Concorde. Ela faz um pocket show tocando flauta, acompanhada pelo maestro e compositor Felipe Senna no piano.
Have Giant Steps and Meditations scared you away from John Coltrane? Join us on the other side of the Trane tracks with what might be the best trio of albums ever dropped in the same year. We're talking 1963 Coltrane—at his most accessible (dare we say smooth?) yet still cutting straight to the truth. From the GRAMMY hall-of-famer Ballads to his legendary Impulse! sessions with Duke Ellington and Johnny Hartman, enter the perfect gateway into Coltrane's world. We break down his honest melodies, the masterful support from McCoy Tyner, Elvin Jones, Jimmy Garrison (and more), and quibble with certain Rudy Van Gelder… choices… Whether you're Coltrane-curious or already converted, this episode has something special for your ears.Link to Spotify playlistTry OS Membership today! → https://osjazz.link/aboutLooking to drop a question?

Pianist/composer McCoy Tyner (born December 11, 1938) was the youngest member of the earth-shattering John Coltrane Quartet and went on to be a major innovator on his instrument, influencing a whole generation of pianists with his rhythmic and harmonically dense approach to the instrument. He has been recognized with an NEA jazz master award and five Grammy awards. His music is as important in many ways as Coltrane's, and his musical vocabulary has touched virtually every musician that's come after him. Enjoying the show? Help keep it going by donating here.

“Dreams do come true.” That's how Greg sums up this episode, as he and Nate talk with master drummer Jack DeJohnette about an incredible recording made in the spring of 1966. Featuring a ferocious quartet co-led by pianist McCoy Tyner and tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson, it captures each of those giants at a turning point in his career. Blue Note Records will release this album, Forces of Nature: Live at Slugs', on Nov. 22. (Nate contributed the main liner notes.) In our far-reaching conversation, Jack reflects on what makes this recording special; the dynamics between the musicians in the band, including bassist Henry Grimes; and the secret to keeping one's composure in the midst of a musical storm.Support WRTI: https://bit.ly/2yAkaJsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Kind of a random playlist of music I have been listening to this week. Of particular interest are the tunes that feature McCoy Tyner, including a Michael Brecker piece (composed by Metheny).

The Trombone Corner Podcast is brought to you by Bob Reeves Brass and The Brass Ark. Join hosts Noah and John as they interview Conrad Herwig, commercial and jazz trombonist from New York City. About Conrad: New York jazz artist CONRAD HERWIG has recorded nearly 30 albums as a leader, receiving four GRAMMY®-nominations for his own projects. His latest CD release is The Latin Side of McCoy Tyner (Savant; 2024). This albums marks 27+ years of the “Latin Side . . .” series, and is a follow-up project to The “Latin Side of ...” tributes to Charles Mingus (Savant 2022), Horace Silver (Savant; 2020), Joe Henderson (Half Note; 2014), Herbie Hancock (Half Note;2010) Wayne Shorter (Half Note; 2008), Miles Davis (Half Note; 2004), and John Coltrane (Astor Place; 1996). These exciting and individualized projects feature an array of special guests including Randy Brecker, Ruben Blades, Michel Camilo, Joe Lovano, Eddie Palmieri, Paquito D'Rivera, Dave Valentin and many of the hottest players on the international scene. Herwig is equally facile in a non-Latin arena. He has been voted #1 Jazz Trombonist in DownBeat Magazine “Jazz Critic's Poll” and nominated for “Trombonist of the Year” by the JazzJournalists Association on numerous occasions. In constant demand as a sideman, Herwig has performed with Joe Henderson, Horace Silver, McCoy Tyner, and Joe Lovano (featured as a soloist on Lovano's GRAMMY® Award winning 52nd St. Themes CD). In the Afro-Caribbean genre he has toured with legends such as Eddie Palmieri, Tito Puente, Paquito D'Rivera, and Michel Camilo. He is a longtime member of the the Mingus Big Band (where he has served as musical director and arranger including on the 2011 GRAMMY®-winning “Live at the Jazz Standard”). In other big band settings Herwig has also performed and recorded with Clark Terry, Buddy Rich, Frank Sinatra, Miles Davis & Quincy Jones, and the Gil Evans Orchestra. All told Herwig has appeared on more than 200+ albums in what is now a 40 year career. In 2006 Herwig received the Paul Acket Award (formerly the “Bird Award”). The prize, presented at the North Sea Jazz Festival, is intended for an artist who, according to the international jury, deserves the attention of a broader audience. Herwig is also a recipient of performance and teaching grants from the National Endowment for the Arts. Conrad was elected to the Board of Advisors of the International Trombone Association and has taught at Mason Gross School of the Arts in the prestigious jazz program at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, N.J. where he currently serves as Artistic Director and Chair of Jazz Studies.
Tonight's Jazz Feature is again a double header. First off is a regular feature for this time of year that is both educational and very entertaining and brings us into the "back to school" idea that is celebrated in the month of September. It is Maestro Leonard Bernstein's "What is Jazz". Bernstein through a whole variety of musical examples explains what Jazz is and what it isn't in a clear non technical way. Later on he analyses a standard pop song interpreted by a variety of Jazz players from various eras and breaks it down into simple parts that the lay person can understand. The recording was made in the mid-50's but is still valid and fun to listen to. Enjoy. Our second Jazz Feature is a lesser known album by tenor and soprano saxophone master John Coltrane who today, September 23 celebrates a Birthday Anniversary. The Jazz feature album is called "Ole Coltrane" and it was his final recording for Atlantic records before he switched to Impulse Records. Coltrane had already recorded his first session for Impulse and he was reminded that he owed Atlantic one more album. He assembled a group of musicians some who would become regular members of his working band. Coltrane assembled young trumpeter Freddie Hubbard and alto saxophonist/flutist Eric Dolphy who did become a regular for several months in Coltrane's band. Pianist McCoy Tyner is heard of course and two fine bassists, Art Davis and Reginald Workman who both were part of Coltrane's regular band and of course the dynamic Elvin Jones on drums. The longest and most iconic tune on this set recorded on May 25, 1961 is "Ole" a Spanish flavoured excursion. "Dahomey Dance is the second Coltrane original and is an altered blues. McCoy Tyner's tribute to his wife is the set's ballad and titled "Aisha". A final tune added to the CD issue was Billy Frasier's "To Her Ladyship", a tribute to Billie Holiday. All in all a very fine and sometimes overlooked album by the great master John Coltrane.
Saxophonist John Coltrane (born Sept 23, 1926), is widely regarded as one of the most important and influential musical voices of the 20th Century. His influence can't be overestimated; literally every musician who followed him has been shaped by his innovations and contributions to the music. A member of Miles Davis' first great quintet, Coltrane also played with Thelonious Monk, Dizzy Gillespie and many other jazz greats before forming his ground breaking quartet in 1960 with pianist McCoy Tyner, bassist Jimmy Garrison, and drummer Elvin Jones. Together, this band reshaped the jazz landscape as none had before or since.
The John & Alice Coltrane Home and the Coltrane Family, in partnership with Impulse!

The duo of Marc Ribot, the New York guitarist, and Leyla McCalla, the New Orleans cellist and banjo player, may seem unlikely at first. Ribot is known for his work with Tom Waits, Elvis Costello, his own avant-noise trio Ceramic Dog, and much more; McCalla writes songs that draw on the African-American string band tradition, Cajun music, and her own Haitian heritage. But Ribot was also a student of the Haitian classical guitarist/composer Frantz Casseus, and the two musicians share a strong genre-agnostic streak. Together they play a set at the 25th Annual New York Guitar Festival, recorded in June of 2024 at Kaufman Music Center and co-presented by the World Music Institute. Set list: Kamen Sa Ou Fe (trad Haitian); Petro (Frantz Casseus); City Called Heaven (trad American); Lavi Vye Neg (Gesner Henry); Sun Without The Heat (Leyla McCalla); Non Fon Bwa (Casseus); Peze Café (trad Haitian); Tree (Leyla McCalla) Marc Ribot has released over two dozen records on his own, ranging from Cuban dance music to free jazz, Haitian classical guitar to political avant-folk. His playing – elegant, edgy, and sometimes, somehow, both at once – has made him the go-to guitarist for artists like Robert Plant & Alison Krauss, Tom Waits, Laurie Anderson, McCoy Tyner, and so many others. He has been a regular part of the New York Guitar Festival over the years. Leyla McCalla was the cellist in the Grammy-winning string band Carolina Chocolate Drops, before moving on to writing her own songs. She is a member of Our Native Daughters, a quartet of Black women who all play the banjo (and other instruments), and has recorded four albums on which she also plays guitar. Her new record, Sun Without The Heat, came out in April.

Purchased for $2 million in 2015 by Pharma-Bro Martin Shkreli, the album was seized by the government in 2018 when Shkreli was convicted of securities fraud. The album was auctioned yet again in 2021 by the U.S. Justice Department to the NFT collectors PleasrDAO (Crypto-Bros). The binding original purchasing agreement stipulated that the album could not be commercially exploited until 2103. PleasrDAO, whose stated purpose is to honor "anti-establishment rebels" and wishing to return the music to the people, has been selling shares of the album as NFTs. PleasrDAO has stated that each share of the album sold would reduce the album's release by 88 seconds. Jay had to get in on this…and he brings us a clip of the album to play.Songs:Hermanos Gutiérrez - “Barrio Hustle”Wu-Tang Clan - clip from Once Upon a Time in Shaolin

In this episode, Brent addresses a question from an Inner Circle member about quartal voicings and their application in chord progressions. Brent breaks down the concept, explaining how they differ from traditional chord voicings by being stacked in fourths rather than thirds. He explores their versatility, emphasizing their common use in modal playing and how they can enhance chord progressions, even in traditional diatonic harmony settings like two-five-one progressions.Throughout the episode, Brent offers practical insights and examples, demonstrating how quartal voicings can add depth and texture to playing while also acknowledging their inherent ambiguity. Drawing on examples from jazz legends like McCoy Tyner, he encourages experimenting with quartal voicings in various musical contexts, adding that understanding the sound we aim to produce is key to using quartal voicings effectively.
