Do mesmo modo que cada grão de Polen é uma promessa microscópica de futuro, cada prancha com a marca fundada e gerida por Álvaro Costa é uma promessa manifesta de felicidade. E porquê? Porque o Álvaro “da Polen” não era um shaper atrás de uma profissão, era um surfista atrás de melhores pranchas. E é sobre esse surfista que nosso convidado vem falar nesse episódio que passeia por três oceanos e cinco residências. Tem Angola, tem Recife, tem Portugal, tem Califórnia tem Hawaii. Tem shapers lendários e lendas que ficaram por contar. Tem jornadas de descoberta e a certeza de ter vivido um sonho e sobrevivido pra continuar a sonhar. Porque antes de haver frutos há sempre pólen em viagem.A trilha fica com The Clash e Should I Stay Or Should I Go, Frankie Chavez com um cover dos Pixies, Hey! e Ralph Towner com The Donkey Jamboree

Besessen vom Klang, fast wahnsinnig vor Hingabe: Gitarrist Ralph Towner formt aus Nylon- und Stahlsaiten eine eigene Klangsprache und verbindet Jazz, Weltmusik und Klassik zu kammermusikalischer Intensität.

Er war der beständigste Künstler des in München ansässigen, weltweit renommierten Labels ECM. Jetzt ist Gitarrist Ralph Towner knapp zwei Monate vor seinem 86. Geburtstag in Rom gestorben, wo er zuletzt lebte.

Er war ein Musiker mit völlig eigenem Ton. Der amerikanische Gitarrist und Komponist Ralph Towner, nicht zuletzt bekannt durch die stilistisch weit offene Band "Oregon", ist am 18. Januar 2026 im Alter von 85 Jahren gestorben.

On his first Jazz Show for 2026, after opening with a classic mid-70's ECM opus from guitarist Ralph Towner, Def Jim offers a feast of Free Jazz and free-ish jazz to delight the auditory senses of those with open ears and perhaps a little courage. From seminal mid-80's works by legendary Detroit pioneers Griot Galaxy and friends (incidentally featured in the December 2025 edition of UK magazine The Wire) through drummer Gerry Hemingway's 90's European Quintet, an outstanding mid-noughties live cut from the second incarnation of David Liebman & Richie Beirach vehicle Quest to new and recent releases from veteran Chicago reedsman Henry Threadgill, Shaman-guitarist Tisziji Munoz and piano visionary Matthew Shipp, this Show has a tilt at freedom in all its guises. And then there's the tracks in between... all in all, true nourishment indeed for intrepid musical souls.

    I've been listening to the ECM record label since the 1970s. You can always count on ECM to put out interesting and sometimes great records. My favorite ECM release is Steve Reich's "Music for 18 Musicians." It's not only my favorite ECM album, it's one of my top albums of all-time. A real desert island record for me. A few of my other favorite regular ECM artists are Steve Tibbetts, Eberhard Weber & Pat Metheny.  We had a discussion about our favorite ECM recordings over on Mixcloud. You can read or join in the thread here - https://www.mixcloud.com/lowlight/posts/favorite-ecm-albums/ I decided it wouyld be cool to make a mix of my top ten favorite ECM albums. I put it together in chronological order, starting with Ralph Towner & a fantastic version of Icarus. And ending with a 2017 album from Björn Meyer. Please leave a comment with some of your favorites in the comments and enjoy this little journey through ECM.

In the 20th episode of the ECM podcast, we are joined by acclaimed American guitarist Ralph Towner, who has been with ECM since back in 1973, when his debut for the label was released. On his new solo album, “At First Light”, recorded in Lugano in 2022, the guitarist presents new and familiar original compositions as well as a couple of songs from the Great American Songbook, performed on classical guitar. In our conversation, Ralph goes all the way back to the beginnings of his collaboration with Manfred Eicher and talks about his days as a piano player, or studying guitar in Vienna and then founding the band Oregon. Of course, we also speak about his new record.

In his liner note for At First Light, Ralph Towner writes of the singularity of having most of his life's work at one record label. He's been an ECM artist for more than fifty years, appearing in many different contexts, one of the most important being a run of solo recordings which began with Diary in 1973. At First Light is the newest addition to the solo guitar series. “My solo recordings,” says Towner, “have always included my own compositions in which there are trace elements of the composers and musicians that have attracted me over the years. Musicians such as George Gershwin, John Coltrane, John Dowland, Bill Evans, to name a few. The blend of keyboard and guitar techniques is an important aspect of my playing and composition, and I feel that this album is a good example of shaping this expanse of influences into my personal music.”Track Listing:1 Flow2 Strait3 Make Someone Happy4 Ubi Stunt5 Guitarra Piccante6 At First Light7 Danny Boy8 Fat Foot9 Argentinian Nights10 Little Old Lady11 Empty StageClassical Music Discoveries is sponsored by Uber and Apple Classical. @CMDHedgecock#ClassicalMusicDiscoveries #KeepClassicalMusicAlive#LaMusicaFestival #CMDGrandOperaCompanyofVenice #CMDParisPhilharmonicinOrléans#CMDGermanOperaCompanyofBerlin#CMDGrandOperaCompanyofBarcelonaSpain#ClassicalMusicLivesOn#Uber Please consider supporting our show, thank you!Donate (classicalmusicdiscoveries.store) staff@classicalmusicdiscoveries.com This album is broadcasted with the permission of Crossover Media Music Promotion (Zachary Swanson and Amanda Bloom).
