V novi epizodi ELLE podkasta voditeljica Petra Windschnurer gosti Nino Strand, eno najbolj suverenih in priznanih vokalistk jazz glasbe pri nas. Nina Strnad že od začetkov svojega ustvarjanja sledi želji, da ljudje prek glasbe in besedil najdejo sebe oz. tisto, kar jim je zaradi hitrega tempa in vrveža življenja pogosto nedostopno ali tuje. Zaradi njene čiste in jasne artikulacije ter čutnih interpretacij jo uvrščamo v sam vrh slovenske in mednarodne glasbene scene. Že zelo zgodaj je postala stalna gostja festivalov in koncertnih ciklusov, ki opevajo jazz in zlata leta slovenske popevke. Posledično je sodelovala tudi z najbolj eminentnimi skladatelji in tekstopisci slovenske zabavne glasbe: Mojmirjem Sepetom, Elzo Budau, Juretom Robežnikom, Janezom Gregorcem in mnogimi drugimi. Znanje in izkušnje si je nabirala tudi ob boku velikanov mednarodne jazzovske scene, kot so z grammyjem nagrajeni Michael Abene in The New York Voices. “… in je bilo, kot bi posijalo sonce.” Tako je v enem od intervjujev Mojmir Sepe opisal trenutek, ko se je na oder v okviru koncerta Evropskega jazz orkestra povzpela Nina Strnad.

No 11. līdz 14. augustam Dzintaru koncertzālē norisināsies festivāla “Artissimo” vasaras sezonas koncerti, kuros muzicēs gan pasaulē atzīti mākslinieki, gan jaunie talanti. 11. augustā festivāls tiks atklāts ar jauno izpildītāju koncertu “Avanti, Artissimo!”, kura devīze ir “Zvaigznes cilvēkiem izgaismo ceļus. Cilvēki izklāj ceļus jaunām zvaigznēm”, bet vakarā klausītājus gaida tikšanās ar vienu no pasaulē labākajām džeza vokālajām grupām, “Grammy” balvas ieguvējiem – “The New York Voices”, kas savā vokālajā sniegumā ar klausītājiem visā pasaulē dalās jau vairāk nekā 30 gadus. Divus solokoncertus 12. augustā un 13. augustā Dzintaru Mazajā zālē sniegs pianists Grigorijs Sokolovs, atskaņojot J.S. Baha, F. Šopēna un R. Šūmaņa darbus. 13. augustā uz festivāla koncertskatuves kāps franču trompetists Romēns Lelē (Francija) un viņa sekstets, piedāvājot oriģinālu repertuāru un populāru skaņdarbu pārlikumus. 14. augustā festivāls “Arttissimo” noslēgsies ar japāņu taiko bundzinieku “Joji Hirotas Taiko Drummers” koncertu. Sarunā Hermaņa Brauna fonda vadītāju, pianisti Innu Davidovu -  par atmiņā allaž paliekošo saviļņojumu un māksliniekiem, kuri pārliecinoši sākuši savu mūzikas ceļu, par grūtībām iekļaut Latviju Grigorija Sokolova regulārajās pieturvietās un New York Voices zeltītajām balsīm, kā arī trompetista Romēna Lelē hameleonisko daudzveidību un īstu japāņu bungu klātbūtni. Inna Davidova: Man liekas, ka šodien modē ir žanru mikss – gan mūzikā, gan vizuālajā mākslā, gan literatūrā. Ir rakstnieki, kuri raksta trilleri, pēc tam vēsturisko stāstu, tad romantisku mīlestības romānu un jūtas labi visos žanros. Man pašai nepatīk trilleri, es tos arī neskatos un nelasu, bet atmiņā paliek saldie, brīvības un sajūsmas momenti, arī gandarījums par paveikto. Tagad varu reizēm uz sevi un savu darbu skatīties no malas, un saprotu, ka galvenais, redzot koncertzāli un cilvēkus, kuri ir atnākuši, un tāds gandarījums, ar kuru maz ko varu salīdzināt. Cilvēki man vaicā, kāpēc es to daru, vai tas vispār ir iespējams šodien? Uz pēdējo jautājumu atbildēšu – nē. Ir tāds teiciens: mēs darām visu, lai sasniegtu to, kas ir sasniedzams. Bet, ja mēs gribam sasniegt to, ko nevar sasniegt, mums drusku vairāk jāpacenšas. Mēs visu laiku darām mazliet vairāk. Esmu mūziķis un visu mūžu, kad spēlēju, zinu, kas man jāsasniedz, un tas nav izdarāms vienā acumirklī. Ir jāpacenšas, jo ideāls vienalga nebūs sasniedzams, bet vismaz zini, ka izdarīji visu un vēl mazliet vairāk. Ja runā par festivāla gaitu, sākums vienmēr bija tāds, ka piedāvājām jauniešu koncertu. Es neteiktu, ka viņi ir mācekļi, jo tas, ko viņi ir sasnieguši savā vecumā, jau ir ļoti labs, profesionāls sniegums. Tur ir brīvība un iztēle, bez kuras īsta mūzika nevar pastāvēt. Man tiešām ir liels prieks, ka katru gadu mēs sākam festivālu ar jauniešiem un it kā savienojam divus nosaukumus – gan „Avanti”, gan „Artissimo”. Koncerta nosaukums ir „AVANTI, ARTISSIMO!”, ko var iztulkot kā „artissimo, uz priekšu!'”, bet tur ir vārdu spēle, jo „Avanti” ir mūsu jauniešu programmas nosaukums, kura eksistē jau 11 gadus. Mūsu festivālam sakām „Avanti!”, un arī mūsu jaunos māksliniekus iedrošinām - „Avanti! Jums ir perspektīva! Pēc dažiem gadiem jūs spēlēsiet uz lielās skatuves mūsu vasaras festivālā!”

Alexa is joined by Michele Weir, a renowned figure in vocal jazz education and arranging. Michele is the founder of the online school Music Habit and the creator of the app ScatAbility. Additionally, she has written several books on jazz, so who better to talk you through the topic of how to sing and teach this genre? KEY TAKEAWAYS Jazz is a diverse genre with various styles and sub-genres. New Orleans jazz originated in the early 20th century and features collective improvisation. Bebop, which emerged in the 1940s, is known for its complex harmonies, fast tempos and intricate improvisations. Cool Jazz developed in the late 1940s and 1950s, and has a more relaxed and laid-back style, emphasising controlled emotions and intricate arrangements. Contemporary jazz, a diverse category that encompasses various modern jazz styles and fusions with other genres, represents the evolving nature of jazz music. In identifying jazz music, several key elements stand out. The rhythmic style, particularly the swing feel, is a defining characteristic. Singers need to develop their rhythmic sense and feel the groove to deliver jazz convincingly. Additionally, jazz singers must master the art of putting lyrics in rhythm to sound conversational, especially in swing. Another indication of jazz interpretation is when the performer adds improvisation to the melody, showcasing their creativity and spontaneity. In jazz, singers alter notes and melodies to match the lyrics' subtext, using vocal phrasing and melodic variations to convey storytelling and emotions. This improvisational approach allows for unique expressions and deeper connections with the song's meaning. In jazz, ghost notes and articulation add depth and complexity to the music. Ghost notes are subtle, muted tones that enhance the groove, while articulation techniques bring out emotion, expressiveness and individuality in performances. Learning jazz piano benefits jazz singers by deepening their musicianship, improving improvisation, and enhancing timing and phrasing. This knowledge enables more expressive performances and better collaboration with accompanists. Overall, it makes jazz singers more versatile and engaging performers. Scatting is a more organic vocal improvisation technique using nonsensical syllables. A teacher helps by introducing scat patterns, practising rhythm and pitch and helping the singer make up their own rhythms. BEST MOMENTS ‘No two jazz singers are alike' ‘Jazz comes in different packages, it's not always about a well trained voice' ‘Phrasing is a bigger deal in jazz than it is in other styles' ‘I want to be leader of the band so I need to talk to them in the musical language they understand'   EPISODE RESOURCES Website: Michele Weir: https://www.micheleweir.com Music Habit: https://www.musichabit.com Relevant Links & Mentions: Artists mentioned: Joni Mitchell; Louis Armstrong; Benny Goodman; Count Basie; Charlie Parker; Dizzy Gillespie; Miles Davis; Ella Fitzgerald; Nat King Cole; Sarah Vaughan; Carmen McRae; Nancy Wilson; Mel Tormé; Gretchen Parlato; Bob Dylan ScatAbility App: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/scatability/id966549564 The work of Judy Niemack: http://www.judyniemack.com/ The work of Bob Stoloff: https://www.bobstoloffmusic.com/ Darmon Meader: https://darmonmeader.com/ New York Voices: https://newyorkvoices.com/ Jazz Voice: https://www.jazzvoice.com/   ABOUT THE GUEST Michele Weir is widely distinguished for her work in vocal jazz education and arranging.

Darmon Meader is the tenor with New York Voices, a fantastic vocal jazz quartet that is performing at Carthage College this Thursday evening as part of their Fine Arts Series.

Este episodio es una declaración de amor a la musica vocal y a las formaciones de jazz vocal. Seguro que recuerdas "Chanson D'Amour" que los Manhattan Transfer cantaron en 1976 y ahora han incluido en su recién aparecido disco “Fifty” (cincuenta) que conmemora los años que cumple esta formación creada por Tim Hauser en 1972. A partir de ella escucharemos a The Swingle Singers, posiblemente la formación en activo más veterana. Los suecos The Real Group es otra de las formaciones europeas que nos visitan. Pero volveremos a los EE.UU. con el cuarteto New York Voices, para cerrar el episodio con The Royal Bopster Experience, un disco que reunió un cuarteto vocal con algunas de las históricas figuras del Vocalese. Un compendio de suculentas voces que declinan diferentes estilos musicales y vocales: Jazz, Pop, Bebop, Scat, A Capella y Vocalese.

How do we tend to the delicate balance of the ecosystem of roles we play as artists of our lives? What does it mean to be a singer and who gets to claim that title? How can healing practitioners benefit from exploring their physical voice as a medium to convey and translate their passion and life calling?My guest in conversation is NYC-based singer-songwriter extraordinaire who also happens to be  my voice teacher, Jamie Leonhart. Jamie and I have worked together on a weekly basis on exploring and cultivating my voice. The impact of our work together on my healing journey has been profound, and I'm deeply grateful for the safe space Jamie provided for these explorations.Our conversation revolved around Jamie's creative process of writing and recording her latest album The Illusion of Blue in the midst of the pandemic and the resulting closure of performance spaces - which propelled many performing artists to question their roles within society. Jamie and I also discussed tending to the delicate balance of holding the identity as an artist, a mother, and a teacher, working with creatives who are not professional singers on their voices, and the fear of claiming our right to explore our unique physical voices.This conversation means so much to me. Listening back, I was moved by the rapport and trust we've slowly built over time. I'm excited for you to get to know Jamie as an artist and her unique perspectives on her work.Here's Jamie's bio:Drawing comparisons to the likes of Norah Jones and Feist, the sharp-witted singer-songwriter Jamie Leonhart is an artist who is difficult to categorize, dynamic in emotional range and diverse in genre-crossing ability.Jamie Leonhart was born in New York City, the granddaughter of a cantor and the youngest of three musically-curious children.  She began studying the violin at age three and singing soon after.Jamie inhabits a hybrid of popular music that incorporates jazz, indie-pop, and quirky torch song cabaret.  Live, her audience becomes a collective co-conspirator as she intones her confessions, dissatisfactions and desires, supported by arrangements that move from somber to playfully bombastic in a moment. Jamie's approachable demeanor belies powerhouse vocals and her ability to deliver intricate compositions, which she does with depth and clarity.As a songwriter, Jamie writes about vulnerability, patience, frustration, shifting perspectives and trust.Jamie is employed as both a commercial voiceover artist and vocalist and also works as a background and session singer (Steely Dan and St.Vincent among others) Jamie is a 2015 commissioned NEW YORK VOICES artist of The Public Theater/Joe's Pub, and created ESTUARY: an artist | mother story through this commission. Her second solo record, the illusion of blue, was released in February 2022 .You can find and connect with Jamie via her website, listen to her albums Illusion of Blue and The Truth About Suffering on Apple Music or Spotify.If you're ever curious about exploring how vocal explorations and training can unlock your unique expressions, I highly recommend reaching out to Jamie to see if working together will make sense for you.  This podcast is hosted, produced, and edited by Jonathan Koe.
