JAZZ FEED lundi, mercredi et vendredi à 17h30. Serge Mariani présente régulièrement un choix d'albums sortis récemment ou sur le point de l'être, des extraits de leur musique, des informations, des commentaires, des impressions, des émotions, c'est la nouvelle émission de Serge Mariani sur Art District Radio: JAZZFEED ! AuprogrammedeceJazzFeed#3,lesnouveauxalbumsdeDanWeiss,CHRONESetYannick Benoit. Le batteur et compositeur Dan Weiss est considérér comme l'un des tout meilleurs actuels et son approche du jeu de batterie comme de l'interaction et la composition peuvent faire penser au travail réalisé par Mark Guiliana, par exemple. Pour ce nouvel album, intitulé Even Odds, Dan Weiss a laissé ses deux comparses, le saxophoniste Miguel Zenon et le pianiste Matt Mitchell, improviser sur ses propositions rythmiques. Dan Weiss a joué notamment auprès de Lee Konitz, Chris Potter, Sylvie Courvoisier, Rudresh Mahanthappa, Linda May Han Oh, John Zorn. Sa passion pour les cultures musicales du nord de l'Inde et du Pakistan est sensible tout au long de l'album et bien entendu dans le titre Nusrat dont nous écouterons des extraits. Après le remarquable et remarqué Mental Climbers, voilà 4 ans, les alpinistes de l'esprit qui constituent le groupe CHRONES sont de retour ! On pourrait s'écrier « Aux abris ! » mais finalement il n'est pas si difficile de se laisser charmer par l'énergie et l'inspiration rock, punk, grunge et metal qui électrise, pour ne pas dire qui électrocute leur musique et leur public avec elle. Baptiste Ferrandis, Pierre Laprand, Etienne Renard et Paul Berne sont là et bien oà derrière leurs instruments et les divers effets dont ils les traitent. Le résultat, c'est un fort avis de tempête sur la scène musicale actuelle dont le titre choisi pour illustrer cette séquence, Espiègle, donne une idée plutôt juste. Il ne suffit pas d'intégrer un didjeridoo aux instruments d'un trio de jazz au départ somme toute très classique, saxophone, batterie, contrebasse et piano, pour proposer un album de jazz original et de très bonne qualité. Cependant, le saxophoniste Yannick Benoît joue avec passion de cet instrument traditionnel aborigène, comme il est passionné par les cultures orientales, le cosmos et les mythologies. Ce premier album intitulé Le Repère (Yannick Benoit est aussi un jeune et heureux papa, un heureux père donc) témoigne avec beaucoup de conviction de tout celaetavecàsescôtésSylvainLeRayaupiano,TomGuilloisàlacontrebasseetJean-Baptiste Loutte à la batterie, il emporte sans mal notre totale et enthousiaste adhésion.

Gabriela Martina is a vocalist, composer, and bandleader who grew up in Switzerland. She spent 13 years living and working in the US (Boston & New York) learning from the people who made Jazz (among many other styles of music originating from the US) as important of an art form as it is today. Gabriela grew up yodeling with her family and had performances as early as the age of 4. Being raised on a beautiful farm in the heart of Switzerland surrounded by a musical family has influenced her musical path strongly. Martina's upcoming album ‘Homage to Grämlis' (delayed by Corona 2020), is a tribute to the farm in the Swiss Alps where she was raised. In spring of 2019 she won the LABgrant from The Boston Foundation, which gave her great support with her album production of ‘Homage to Grämlis'. In the fall of 2021, Martina had the great honor to receive the arts & culture award 2020 from the arts and culture commission Horw, her home town in Switzerland. She also received the DIPLÔME DE MÉDAILLE DE VERMEIL from the lauréats Arts-Sciences-Lettres, 2020, in Paris (France). During the time of the pandemic, Gabriela Martina has composed nine new compositions for her newest album called ‘STATES'. The word ‘States' refers to the United States of America, but also to a ‘state of mind', or simply a ‘state of being'. Sounds created with your voice and percussion/drumming as the first human musical elements. She has used them as the core elements for her compositions. Her works include wordplay, music with words (spoken word) and words with no meaning (gibberish). The release for this album is slated for 2024! Released in 2016 with a four-star review from DownBeat, her album, No White Shoes, represented a major step in the singer's sojourn as a 21st-century musician. Martina had the opportunity to perform and collaborate with heavyweights like Meshell Ndegeocello, Jack DeJohnette, and Angelique Kidjo. She recorded with veteran drummer J.R. Robinson and was a semi-finalist in the Shure Voice Competition at the 2009 Montreux Jazz Festival, performing with guitarist Lee Ritenour's band. Martina released a critically hailed EP in 2010, Curiosity, which included her original song “Ain't Nobody,” a finalist in the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers Foundation Young Jazz Composer Awards in 2012. Martina owns her own booking agency called Red Velvet Sounds and is cofounder and curator of the free improv concert series In Momentum. In June 2019 she took part in the Central Swiss Yodeling Festival and graduated with top marks. She has also performed in concert venues such as the Berklee Performance Center, Jordan Hall, International Tennis Hall of Fame, State House of Flags and the Scullers Jazz Club. Gabriela has a bachelor's degree from Berklee College of Music and a master's degree from the New England Conservatory of Music, where she studied with Donna McElroy, Jason Moran, Cecil McBee, Miguel Zenon, Frank Carlberg, Dominique Eade, Ken Schaphorst, Jerry Bergonzi among many others. Martina is passionate about learning more about other cultures, helping to develop a sense for community, and fighting inequality and racism. She is a strong advocate of causes that promote equal human rights independent of religious or political affiliations. From 2009 to 2010, Martina was the founder and president of the Cultural Leaders Club at Berklee College of Music, where students investigated causes and effects in terms of race, gender, and ethnicity issues. Sonic Relief, which Martina co-founded, was awarded the Berklee Urban Service Award 2016 for using music to aid people in need, such as organizing a humanitarian fundraising concert for Syrian refugees, featuring Simon Shaheen and the Lee Swensen Katz Trio in December 2015. Gabriela Martina has many hidden talents, one of them being cooking which she clearly proved through her cookbook she wrote during the desperate times of the pandemic 2020/2021 called ‘Dinner with My Neighbor'. In this episode, Gabriela shares her background, education, and musical journey.

Ballaké Sissoko, Vincent Segal, Emile Parisien et Vincent Peirani sortent un album commun : Les Égarés. Entretien avec Vincent Segal et Vincent Peirani. Puis la #SessionLive s'adonnera à du groove afro-caribéen made in France !   Une kora, un violoncelle, un saxophone et un accordéon. Nous recevons 2 des 4 musiciens Vincent Segal et Vincent Peirani. Les Égarés est plus qu'un disque. C'est un espace de jeu, un lieu de vie musical, un asile poétique habité par deux binômes qui, depuis des années, excellent dans l'art de croiser les sons et de transcender les genres : Ballaké Sissoko (kora) et Vincent Segal (violoncelle) d'un côté, Vincent Peirani (accordéon) et Émile Parisien (saxophone) de l'autre. Avec ces magiciens-là, 2+2 ne fait plus 4, mais 1. Car c'est bien une unité d'esprit et une fluidité du son qu'inventent ensemble ces individualités bien trempées, méprisant toute compétition d'ego pour se mettre au service du bien musical commun. Ni jazz ni traditionnel, ni chambriste ni avant-gardiste, mais un peu de tout cela à la fois, Les Égarés est cet album où l'oreille est l'instrument-roi, où la virtuosité s'exprime dans l'art d'être complice, où le simple et grandiose désir d'écouter l'autre aboutit à la naissance d'un splendide chant à quatre voix. Tout part d'une rencontre au sommet – en haut d'une colline qui surplombe Lyon. Ce soir de juin 2019, dans le cadre du festival Les Nuits de Fourvière, on s'apprête à célébrer les quinze ans du label NØ FØRMAT, dans un bel écrin de pierres romaines à ciel ouvert. Pour l'occasion, Vincent Segal est le maître de cérémonie et tient salon (de musique), entouré de convives de choix : parmi eux figurent déjà Ballaké Sissoko, Vincent Peirani et Émile Parisien. Entre les participants, un pacte a été signé : aucune répétition ne doit précéder ce qui s'annonce comme un moment de création spontanée. Mais comment réfréner de tels inspirés, animés par le désir de converser en musique ? L'après-midi, sous une tonnelle qui les protège du cagnard, les voilà qui, pour la seule beauté du geste et la grandeur du plaisir, se mettent à jammer. Et la musique, alors, coule comme source, limpide et fraîche. C'est dans le souvenir de ce jaillissement qu'a germé l'idée de composer le quatuor des Égarés. Et c'est à cela qu'aura ressemblé l'enregistrement de l'album : un partage spontané des élans et des savoirs. Il n'y a qu'une promesse que ce disque n'a pas pu exaucer : celle, caressée un temps par Vincent Segal, d'enregistrer à Bamako chez son complice Ballaké, comme au temps de leur divin album Chamber Music. L'extrême tension qui règne au Mali a eu raison de ce rêve, et c'est finalement à Gap que, une semaine durant, les quatre musiciens ont installé leur atelier de création. Dehors, la météo était très instable. Dans le studio, elle a été au grand beau, tout de suite. Mais ce n'était pas le beau fixe pour autant : dès les premiers échanges, tout s'est mis en mouvement et en vibration. Normal : aucun de ces quatre affranchis n'aime être emprisonné – que ce soit dans un rôle ou dans un type de jeu ou de son auquel son instrument serait condamné. Dans sa besace, chacun a apporté une poignée de diamants bruts, qu'il a soumis au groupe. À l'épreuve du feu commun, dans le creuset naturel du live acoustique, ces gemmes ont pris forme neuve, se sont sublimés : ils ont très vite fourni la matière d'un authentique butin collectif. De l'or musical, fondu dans un singulier alliage de timbres, de touchers, de souffles et de phrasés, dont le motif à l'unisson qui ouvre l'album donne d'emblée la formule de base alchimique.Il y a ainsi Ta Nye et Banja, merveilles mandingues qui sont comme les bornes de départ et d'arrivée de la route tracée parcourue par Les Égarés : deux thèmes de kora que les contrechants et reprises des autres instruments enrobent et déplacent insensiblement, avec cet engagement dans la douceur, ce souci d'accompagner au plus juste qui est l'apanage des musiciens d'expérience – écoutez donc l'introduction follement aérienne que signe Émile Parisien sur Banja. Un parfum d'Arménie enrobe les premières mesures d'Izao, pièce qui glisse vers la Transylvanie via la Turquie, et semble orchestrer par endroits de troublantes noces entre kora et Bartok. Soutenu par une basse lancinante, Amenhotep enclenche une lente mais sûre spirale ascensionnelle, transe coltranienne que soulèvent les souffles croisés de l'accordéon et du sax. Autour du thème de Dou, les quatre hommes prennent le relais comme s'il s'agissait de garder un feu, d'entretenir la mémoire d'un blues ancestral en lui donnant l'enivrant balancement d'une berceuse. Tout en majesté et en mystère, Nomad's Sky s'ouvre comme une plante aux fragrances capiteuses, trouvant de quoi étourdir durablement les sens dans la nervure obstinée de la basse, jouée au cello, et le déploiement progressif des motifs instrumentaux. La Chanson des égarés déroule quant à elle une de ces mélodies irrésistiblement cadencées qu'on se fredonne intérieurement quand, comme Vincent Segal, « on marche sans savoir où l'on va, en se laissant aller au plaisir d'être paumé » – plaisir qui, à lui seul, résume la philosophie du disque. Les thèmes empruntés à des sources extérieures sont pareillement transcendés. Esperanza, standard de l'accordéoniste Marc Perrone, sonne comme une cumbia à la fois alerte et douce, sa mélodie qui passe de main en main tissant une étoffe que l'auditeur porte à même le cœur. Dans Time Bum, tiré du répertoire de Bumcello, c'est l'illusion d'entendre un combo de cuivres qui prend corps, big band au groove ultra-serré que la basse au cello ne fait que renforcer. Dans Orient Express, reprise haletante tiré du grand-œuvre de Joe Zawinul, immense dresseur de ponts entre Europe, Afrique et Orient, le quatuor, sans recours à l'électricité ni à un feu roulant de percussions, réussit à conserver l'ADN de l'original tout en recomposant totalement ses tissus, sa force vitale, son groove infectieux. Sans la moindre démonstration, les quatre complices réalisent ainsi toute une série de prouesses qui ne sont jamais affichées comme telles. Les Égarés est ce disque sans voix soliste qui, pourtant, ne cesse jamais de chanter. Ce disque sans batterie ni percussions qui, pourtant, ne cesse jamais de faire entendre une très humaine et très sensible pulsation. Ce disque aux échanges si harmonieux que, par séquences, l'oreille, saisie par quelques illusions auditives (n'y aurait-il pas ici un balafon, et là un harmonium ?), en arrive elle-même à se perdre voluptueusement, à ne plus distinguer qui fait quoi dans l'intime entrelacement des voix. Ce disque qui, tout en repoussant la banalité, ne cesse d'embrasser l'évidence, dans un art du décadrage amoureux et de la dérive volontaire dont l'élégance audacieuse renvoie à d'autres grands égarés comme Don Cherry ou encore les musiciens sans matricule du Penguin Cafe Orchestra. « Je n'ai jamais enregistré un disque dans une telle atmosphère, souligne Vincent Peirani. Aucun de nous n'a été dans la “perf”, si bien que la musique raconte beaucoup de choses sans jamais se la raconter. Aucun d'entre nous ne détenait la vérité : nous la trouvions ensemble. » Au passage, Les Égarés rappelle tout ce que l'esprit de concorde peut avoir de frondeur, et combien l'art de jouer en si belle intelligence peut engendrer une manière extrêmement subtile de mettre le feu aux poudres. Contrairement à une idée reçue un peu pénible, vivre en harmonie ne signifie pas s'astreindre fatalement à des compromis pénibles, consensus mous et autres lénifiantes routines : quand elle le veut, la paix déménage. Et avec ces quatre-là, elle le veut bien, elle le veut tout le temps. Dans Les Égarés, elle soulève même des montagnes, recomposant le paysage musical pour tirer des lignes de fuite d'une beauté inouïe.Titres joués- Izao, La chanson des égarés, Time Bum et Banja voir le clip. - Voir le clip Esperanza.► album Les Egarés  (No Format 2023).Concert France 2023 à venir12 juillet - Les Suds à Arles.Puis nous recevons le groupe Abajàde dans la #SessionLive pour présenter l'album « Latopa », voir le clip.Latopa déploie toute l'étendue d'un groove mystique élaboré entre les rues de La Havane et les clubs de Paris. En colorant les chants yoruba dédiés aux orishas des univers musicaux de ce tout nouveau collectif, Àbájade apporte ses touches de soul et de jazz pour un son original construit à huit. Un premier album éclatant ! L'album se nomme Latopa car il est dédié à l'orisha Elegua qui ouvre les chemins dans la tradition afro-cubaine de la Santeria. Divinité des carrefours, nous le sentons emblématique de notre musique par la diversité des routes musicales qui se croisent dans ce disque.  Il comprend 7 titres, mélangeant compositions originales et arrangements inédits sauce Àbájade pour une durée totale de 36 minutes. Pour être au plus proche de notre énergie sur scène et restituer l'aspect organique de notre musique, tout a été enregistré en live. Nous voulions également un son chaleureux et un peu vintage comme sur les mythiques albums des années 70. L'enregistrement, le mixage et le mastering ont été réalisés sur bande analogique avec des micros d'époque.  Le disque s'accompagne d'un univers graphique conçu par le street artist Gilbert Mazout, qui a réalisé une grande fresque murale au coeur du clip et de la pochette.  Après avoir exploré la musique du saxophoniste Miguel Zenon dans notre premier EP, nous tombons par hasard sur le disque Méta Méta du groupe anglais Timeline. C'est une révélation pour nous, car, à travers des arrangements aux grooves léchés, parvient à nos oreilles une musique qui ne nous quittera plus depuis : les chants sacrés de la santeria cubaine. Nous sommes immédiatement séduits par la beauté des mélodies, les polyrythmies des tambours batá qui les accompagnent et la dimension spirituelle des orishas.  Nous commençons à intégrer ces éléments à notre répertoire, et quelques mois plus tard nous voilà à Cuba pour participer aux cérémonies dont nous jouons la musique. Un nouveau chapitre s'ouvre alors pour nous, au rythme des aller-retours à la Havane. À travers les rites quotidiens, l'ambiance électrique des tambours et les rumbas dans la rue se nouent des liens d'amitié avec les musicien.ne.s qui font vivre les traditions afro-cubaines aujourd'hui.  C'est l'atmosphère spirituelle, l'inventivité rythmique et l'énergie intense des cérémonies que nous avons pu vivre à Cuba qu'il nous tenait à cœur de retranscrire de manière personnelle et originale. En 2022, 3 résidences de création en partenariat avec des salles de spectacles nous ont permis d'élaborer notre nouveau répertoire.

This is a black arts and culture site. We will be exploring the African Diaspora via the writing, performance, both musical and theatrical (film and stage), as well as the visual arts of Africans in the Diaspora and those influenced by these aesthetic forms of expression. I am interested in the political and social ramifications of art on society, specifically movements supported by these artists and their forebearers. It is my claim that the artists are the true revolutionaries, their work honest and filled with raw unedited passion. They are our true heroes. Ashay!   1. Noel Schwerin's documentary IN AN IDEAL WORLD will have its U.S. television premiere Tuesday, April 26, 2016, at 8 p.m. on WORLD Channel (check local listings), as part of the fourth season of AMERICA REFRAMED, public media's newest documentary series. The film will be available for free streaming on http://worldchannel.org/programs/episode/arf-s4-e413-ideal-world/  starting April 27, 2016.   Shot over seven years, with unprecedented access, IN AN IDEAL WORLD follows three men in California's infamous Soledad prison—John Piccirillo, a white separatist murderer, Sam Lewis, a black ex-gang member and Ben Curry, a warden. Each entered the system young and learned its codes of conduct not only to maintain order and safety, but also for their personal survival. 2. From the Archives.  3. We close with an interview with Mfoniso Udofia about her two plays: "Sojourners" & "runboyrun" at The Magic Theatre through May 8/May 15.
