Hello everyone, This is Mirko Guerrini, and I welcome you to the Jazz Transcription Clinic, a monthly interviews podcast where we talk with accomplished jazz doctors about their lives, careers and their personal transcription secrets.  On this episode of the Jazz Transcription Clinic Podcast, Mirko Guerrini interviews the guest jazz doctor: Barney McAll Listen to Barney's answers to the questions below:  Why do you transcribe? 10:06 What do you expect to learn from a transcription? 26:15 How do you choose solos? 29:02 What is your transcribing methodology? 34:32 Do you write it down? 51:22 How do you practise the solos? 59:30 How do you incorporate transcriptions into your playing? 01:19:38 Who was the most difficult one to transcribe? 01:20:26 What is your favourite solo that you transcribed? 01:22:00 Link to: Ben Gerstein COLTRANE BODY (Dance) https://youtu.be/Xqw514Kx1Go Ben Gerstein Interview with Barney https://youtu.be/yGCPB9y0ySQ Barney McAll (born Melbourne, Australia, 1966) is a jazz pianist and composer who lives in Melbourne, Australia. Barney McAll  joined saxophonist Gary Bartz‘s band in 1997. As well as remaining to be a member of the Gary Bartz quartet, he also plays with the Josh Roseman Unit, Fred Wesley and the JB's, Groove Collective, and Kurt Rosenwinkel‘s “Heartcore”. He completed a Bachelor of Music at the Victorian College of the Arts in Melbourne, studying with pianists Paul Grabowsky, Tony Gould and Mike Nock and with guitarist Doug Devries.

At the ARIA Music Awards of 2015 McAll won Best Jazz Album for Mooroolbark.[1] McAll is partial to unleashing surprises himself, whether they be radical dynamic shifts – such as suddenly reducing a solo to the merest trickle of notes against thrumming bass and whispered cymbal chatter – or just finding bewitchingly unexpected turns to take in developing a melody.

One of Australia's most beloved and renowned pianists, Simon Tedeschi has played with all the major Australian orchestras, and is a seasoned chamber musician and collaborator too. He's recorded a vast swath of albums covering music from JS Bach and Domenico Scarlatti to Mark Isaacs and Mike Nock, with a decent chunk of George Gershwin too. He's also a writer, with his first book, Fugitive, published in May, simultaneous with winning the Calibre Essay prize for his essay This Woman, My Grandmother. In this wide-ranging conversation, Simon discusses his writing, including the award-winning essay about his late grandmother, a Holocaust survivor, and reveals what it's like to learn more about a loved one after their death than was ever known while they were still alive. Also, he compares his writing with his music, and how his early experiences as a proclaimed child prodigy began to shape his psyche and his career. Simon is one of the 2MBS Fine Music Sydney artistic patrons, and is a long-time friend of the station.

Sunday 27 March: The art of curating an accessible and multi-generational jazz festival, and The New Statesman's Tom Gatti on writers' favourite albums.

Hello everyone, This is Mirko Guerrini, and I welcome you to the Jazz Transcription Clinic, a monthly interviews podcast where we talk with accomplished jazz doctors about their lives, careers and their personal transcription secrets. On this episode of the Jazz Transcription Clinic Podcast Mirko Guerrini interviews the guest jazz doctor: Stephen Magnusson Listen to Steve Magnusson's answers to the questions below: Why do you transcribe? 03:47 What do you expect to learn from a transcription? 17:41 How do you choose the solos to transcribe? 24:21 What is your transcribing methodology? 33:08 Do you use any software? 45:45 Which transcription of yours is your favourite? 01:09:05 Artists mentioned in this episode: Pat Metheny, Herbie Hancock, Dmitri Sostakovic, Charlie Parker, Charles Lloyd, Charlie Haden, John Scofield, Brad Mehldau, Sonny Rollins a.o.   Stephen Magnusson is considered one of Australia's most accomplished, versatile and distinct musicians with incredible technique and an astoundingly beautiful tone. His hectic schedule shows that he is a delight to work with and someone that has ‘something to say' in the world of improvised music. He was given his first ukulele at 3, his first guitar at 6 and began performing at 10 on an electric guitar that he loaned from his schoolteacher. At 13, he started to study under the guidance of Gordon Pendleton at the Box Hill Tafe and discovered the world of improvised music. In 1986, he studied at the esteemed Victorian College of the Arts under the supervision of some of Australia's finest musicians – Tony Gould, Bob Sedergreen and Mike Doyle. Here he expanded his practice regime and playing. He joined various bands playing numerous styles and developed an understanding of different methods. But, his main focus remained, to develop and hone the craft of mastering the guitar. He travelled to Europe and lived there and after being appointed on the staff at The Academy of Contemporary Music (Zurich) in 1997, Stephen met his long time collaborator – Sergio Beresovsky. They began to perform regularly with Swedish bassist – Bjorn Meyer and in the July of the same year, Australian saxophonist Julien Wilson travelled to meet and play with the trio. After the first week of playing, they formed SNAG and produced a self-titled album (released in Australia ‘Hey Guess What'). After 3 years of living in Zurich, Stephen returned to Melbourne in August 2000. He entered the National Jazz Award at Wangaratta Jazz and Blues Festival, where he tied for first place amongst much controversy. At this festival, he performed with his trio featuring Sergio and Eugene Ball. This recorded result is captured on the CD ‘Healing Songs'. He has worked with many artists including Charlie Haden, Meshell Ndegeocello, Ricki Lee Jones, Sinead O'Connor, John Cale, Gurrumul Yunupingu, Paul Grabowsky, Vince Jones, Katie Noonan, Lisa Young, Christine Sullivan, Michelle Nicole, Martin Breeze, The Assumptions Trio, Megan Washington, Paul Kelly, Jim Black, Mike Nock, Barney McAll, Enrico Rava, Arthur Blythe and many others. As a part of the Katie Noonan trio Elixir, the ensemble won the ARIA for Best Jazz Album in 2011. In 2013, Stephen was awarded the Melbourne Prize for Outstanding Musician, and the Australian Jazz Bell Award for Best Contemporary Jazz Album with his quartet MAGNET (with Carl Pannuzzo, Eugene Ball and Sergio Beresovsky). Stephen is currently concentrating on writing for his duo Boundaries with Frank DiSario, and trio MAG featuring DiSario and Dave Beck. He will also be completing the second release from MAGNET, SOM.

Pioneers were prevalent in the 50s and 60s. Guys that built up their chops to be able to play at the spur of the moment in any setting with any players. This pioneer mentality was helped by venues, multiple venues in every major city so accessibility was not a problem. The pioneers of music were unafraid of pursuing odd rhythms and combining instruments that wouldn't necessarily be commonplace in a square setting. My guest was one such pioneer, with Charles Lloyd they became the first American Jazz outfit to perform in the Soviet Union, he was a favorite of Joe Henderson in a group that featured the likes of Woody Shaw, George Cables and Lenny White. He was also one of the founding members of the eclectic group the fourth way with Mike Nock, Michael White and legendary Bay Area drummer Eddie Marshall. He has been an educator at the Berkelee School of music and LIU and is a continual force in the field of music. Ron McClure it's a pleasure to welcome you to the Jake Feinberg Show.

We look at two lesser known vocalists tonight and two fairly obscure pianists, and things turn out pretty well if it wasn't for that darn echo.  What's going on in the Riverside studios, anyway?  At some point, the episode turns into a trivia show, but at the last minute, John Cale turns up to set things right and Pat gets a few words in edgewise about the Denver jazz scene.  Mike Nock – CLIMBING; Harold Danko – MIRTH SONG; Abbey Lincoln – ABBEY IS BLUE; Peggy Lee – BLACK COFFEE.

Simon Sweeney is a professional trumpet player and educator based in Sydney. He is a studio musician and has been prolific in the live music scene since 1993. As a member of the Jazz Faculty at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music since 2010 he has taught many of the young players currently working in the Sydney scene. Simon has appeared as guest Principal trumpet with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, the Australian Opera and Ballet Orchestra, the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra and the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra. Film recording credits include Happy Feet, The Great Gatsby, The Extra and The Bank. Simon has played on over 40 professional musical theatre productions since the mid 90s. He has played lead trumpet for Michael Bublé, George Benson, Paloma Faith and Tim Minchin. As a jazz musician he has toured and recorded with Mike Nock, played with the Space Cadets, recorded with the Jazzgroove Mothership Orchestra and he is currently co-lead trumpet of the Australian National Jazz Orchestra. He has performed with Silverchair, Thirsty Merc and recorded with Powderfinger and Billy Thorpe. Simon's lead playing can be heard on the Netflix series Beat Bugs and Motown Magic. Simon’s own small group jazz album “Emerald City Blues” was released on the Jazzgroove label. During the lockdown he has put together a horn section called the Emerald City Horns comprising some of Sydney’s most prolific studio musicians.

In the great lexicon of drummers some are often equipped with a lot to say. They know their primary job is to accompany and swing the band but it hard when they have their own thing to say. Mose Allison once said that producers and A&R guys wanted drummers to play backbeat in order to make a hit song or record. While there is nothing wrong with backbeat it has in some ways has stilted what drummers think they can say with their trap set. Of coarse drummers can overplay and get in the way of free form improvisation but like the late great George Muribus said a about my guest he is never stepping on his toes. Born in Alabama my guest today has the New Orleans stomp and strut mentality. Instruments can be made from many objects and the transformative sounds they make fuel spiritual swinging melodic percussive sound. Just look @ the kinds of people he has played with. Ellis Marsalis, Tom Donlinger, George Marsh, Mike Nock, Mel Graves, Len Lasher, Richard Waters, the aforementioned Allison and Muribus and the celebrated Aussie Bryce Rhode. He continues to gig in the Bay Area. Playing to people of all ages and all parts of the world. In many ways the music he contributed to some 40 years ago holds up well if not better in today's overly produced, machine reliant music landscape.

This was the final album of saxophonist John Handy's contract with Columbia Records and it's a gem. Recorded by his new band called "The John Handy Concert Ensemble" in April of 1968. The music is varied, innovative and dramatic. Handy plays his alto saxophone and the saxello (a soprano saxophone variant) and the flute here with the late Michael White on violin, Mike Nock on piano, Bruce Cale on bass and the late Larry Hancock on drums. Compositions are 4 by John Handy, 3 by Mike Nock and 1 by Michael White. A rich and varied album that is often overlooked. Tonight we celebrate John Handy's 87th Birthday. He is alive and healthy in Oakland and still performs occasionally. Happy Birthday old friend!

An in-depth chat with Kiwi-born, Australian-based pianist and composer Mike Nock. We talk about his years in America, opening for Miles Davis, playing in Dionne Warwick's band and working with Yusef Lateef. We talk about growing up in New Zealand in the 40s and 50s - and finding jazz. We talk also of his life now in Australia (for the last 30 or so years) where he is in a teaching role but continues to tour and record and his regular visits back to New Zealand.

Yusef Lateef had been around the Jazz scene for quite a while playing and recording under his own name since 1957. He moved to New York with his family in 1960 and worked with Charles Mingus among others but it wasn't until the end of 1961 when he joined the group led by alto saxophonist Julian "Cannonball" Adderley and made it a sextet that Lateef was really put on the Jazz map.He remained with the Adderley organization until 1964 when he formed this quintet heard tonight. It's a live recording from a Philadelphia Jazz club called "Pep's Musical Bar". Lateef is featured on tenor saxophone, flute and oboe and a variety of exotic instruments like the bamboo flute, the shenai, and the argol. His cohorts are Richard Williams on trumpet, a young up and coming Mike Nock on piano, Ernie Farrow on bass and the legendary James Black on drums. A whole variety of tunes showing the range of this band are heard before an appreciative audience on the evening of June 29, 1964. Yusef Lateef is still going strong at 92, performing and lecturing throughout the world.Live at Pep's cooks!
