Podcasts about saxophonists

"Eddie (Harris) was an enigma. He was also a soulful intellectual. He was an innovator who had hit records. He was a success, but he didn't appear all that popular. I think he must have had 3 audiences in one. Each person seeing something different in his music, and that's problematic to navigate in. But he was who he was. He was a creative force with many talents and interests."   Saxophonist/bandleader/composer Eric Person   We couldn't put it better ourselves, so how about if we give Eddie Harris a good, hard listen?  This Monday (5/12) from 6p to 9p NYC time, host Mitch Goldman invites Eric Person to the WKCR studios for a powerful Deep Focus.  If only they had rare, unreleased recordings of Eddie Harris from the WKCR archives.  Hmmm... We'll have to work on that!    Tune in this Monday (4/27) from 6pm to 9pm NYC time on WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR-HD or wkcr.org.     Or join us when it goes up on the Deep Focus podcast on your favorite podcasting app or at https://mitchgoldman.podbean.com/.  Subscribe right now to get notifications when new episodes are posted.  It's ad-free, all free, totally non-commercial.  We won't even ask for your contact info.   Find out more about Deep Focus at https://mitchgoldman.com/about-deep-focus/ or join us on Instagram @deep_focus_podcast.     Photo credit: Eddie Harris 1972 Atlantic Records, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons.   #WKCR #DeepFocus #EricPerson #EddieHarris #JazzRadio #JazzPodcast #JazzInterview #MitchGoldman

Christoph Grab ist ein Urgestein der Schweizer Jazz-Szene. Der 1967 in Bern geborene Saxophonist ist ein Freigeist und taucht immer wieder in den unterschiedlichsten Formationen auf. Seine Band „Root Area“ ist jedoch etwas ganz besonderes. Das Quartett ist diesmal mit zwei Saxophonen, Hammond-Orgel und Schlagzeug minimalistisch, aber äußerst wirkungsvoll besetzt, meint unser Jazzkritiker Georg Waßmuth.

This week on Jazz After Dinner, Joe features Saxophonist Coleman Hawkins, from his 1954 Fresh Sound Records recording, titled “Coleman Hawkins and his All-Stars.”  

In this episode of THE MENTORS RADIO, Host Tom Loarie talks with Terry Hanck, a multi-award-winning blues and soul saxophonist, singer and songwriter whose journey is as raw and real as the music he plays. Terry didn't follow a straight line to success. He started as a surfer and diver, found his voice through a saxophone at age 21, toured the world with Elvin Bishop, and went on to lead his own band for more than three decades. Along the way, he's won multiple BMA Awards, that is Blues Music Awards (BMA) and played with legends of the genre. But this is more than a story about music—it's about finding your passion, staying one step ahead of a “real job,” and living life on your terms. You won't want to miss this conversation.

SHOW NOTES: BIO: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terry_Hanck TERRY HANCK BAND: https://terryhanck.net/band.html WEBSITE: https://www.terryhanck.net/ "His fiery reed work, beautiful tone and effortless, inventive melodies make for a thoroughly enjoyable listening... his voice is a marvel. He can make it growl, ache, croon, moan and tease, and then some. It is a superb instrument in its instrument in its own right." - Joseph Jordan, Golden Gate Blues News (SF)

A supreme honor & privilege to welcome scintillating saxophonist/composer NUBYA GARCIA to Episode 086. At the dawn of her first US headlining tour, the UK-based sorceress was kind enough to tap in for a deep, insightful chat on a smattering of salient topics with numerous delightful detours. Your humble narrator has been paying rather close attention to this dynamic, shape-shifting artist since she unveiled 2020 debut full-length LP SOURCE. In 2024, Garcia blasted back with the otherworldly sophomore sensation ODYSSEY, a multi-hued document that delivers different shades than its prodigous predecessor. For just under an hour, Nubya Garcia unspools the passions and pathways that manifested this magnificent new record. Exploring the vision, compositions, and inspirations that made ODYSSEY spring to vibrant life, plus the exhilarating experience of conducting a chamber orchestra for the first time - while recording in a church no less! Nubya discusses her foray into spoken word, recalling a humorous story tracking vocals in Brazil. She later revisits the genetic codes, cross-pollinations and hybrid strains native to the majestic SOURCE. We explore the symbiosis between club culture and her sound art; Ms. Garcia reflects on the impact of NPR's Tiny Desk Concert appearance(s), her lengthy relationships and crucial collaborations with a loyal cadre of co-conspirators including Joe Armon-Jones, Georgia Anne Muldrow, Mala, DJ Harrison (Butcher Brown), and beyond.  2:30 - Ep.086 preview 5:45 - Sponsor: Just Schwandering NOLA JazzFest 8:20 - Sponsor: CORNFLOWER Ka-BLOOM!

Is it jazz? Sure, the London-born saxophonist, composer and bandleader grew up studying the genre under the noted pianist Nikki Yeoh at Camden Music. But it isn't until you listen to albums like 2020's Source and 2024's Odyssey that you hear broader creativity shining through: It's jazz, classical, dub, R&B and whatever else Garcia wants to convey. It all comes from a place of exploration and self-study, of wanting to do all the things across all disciplines while ignoring arbitrary boxes that don't fit. Garcia's sophomore album Odyssey released via Concord Jazz. A majestic feat on which she blends orchestral arrangements with R&B, jazz, broken beat and dub, resulting in a grand, nuanced record that feels airy and celestial without sacrificing the groove. It's a deeply personal offering about her trek to falling back in love with musical composition over the past four years." Big Thanks to Mick & the Nubya team for making this conversation possible!

My next guest hails from Georgia. He is Avery Dixon, a golden buzzer contestant on Season 17 (2022) of America's Got Talent and a spokesperson against bullying. Saxophonist phenom Avery Dixon rose to fame as a finalist on America's Got Talent and as the show's All-Star runner-up. Among the well-known performers he has been honored to perform with are Grammy Award-winning trombonist Troy Andrews, often known as "Trombone Shorty," and 12-time Grammy Award-winning artist, songwriter, and composer Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds. Despite measuring under a pound, 8 ounces at birth, Avery has surmounted several health obstacles. He has shown himself to be quite resilient and has refused to let his health problems define who he is. Unfortunately, because of his distinctive voice, which set him apart from his friends, he became the target of bullying. Mr. Dixon claims that the bullying was so bad that he once "considered suicide." Avery nevertheless urges anyone who feels depressed or upset to seek therapy. He has also proven his bullies wrong by receiving numerous accolades for his efforts, including a letter of gratitude from former President Obama. Let's welcome my new friend and talented saxophonist, Avery Dixon, to Autism Rocks And Rolls.  https://www.averydixon.com/

Saxophonist and jazz composer Benny Golson (born January 25, 1929) was one of jazz's senior statesmen, passing away last year at the age of 95. He was one of the last surviving subjects of the well known photograph “A Great Day in Harlem”, which was featured in the film “The Terminal” (2004) which also featured a cameo by Golson himself. He penned a number of compositions which have become well loved jazz standards.

This week on Jazz After Dinner, Joe features Saxophonist Paul Desmond from his 1959 Gambit Records recording “First Place Again."

Tonight's Jazz Feature is one of the most individual and passionate voices of the alto saxophone William "Sonny" Criss. The album is his second for Prestige Records called "Portrait of Sonny Criss". He recorded for Prestige from 1966 to 1969 and these albums remain his best known. Sonny here is accompanied by the great under rated Walter Davis Jr. on piano, Paul Chambers on bass and Alan Dawson on drums and was done on March 23, 1967 at Rudy Van Gelder's Studio. The album mixes standard tunes and a couple of Jazz favorites but each track demonstrates Sonny's passionate sound and intensity. A musical portrait indeed of an unsung great: Sonny Criss.

This week on Jazz After Dinner Joe features Saxophonist Joe Henderson from his 1992 Polygram Records recording, titled “Lush Life, The Music of Billy Strayhorn.”

Interpreten: Stefan & Daniel Gottfried Label: gottfried music EAN: 4069493128086 Haben Sie sich vielleicht auch schon einmal gefragt, was in Wiener Kirchen abends und nachts passiert, wenn die Türen und Tore verschlossen sind? Zugegeben, meistens gar nichts. Aber hin und wieder finden sich Musikerinnen und Musiker mit ihren Tontechnikern und einem Haufen Technik-Equipment ein und produzieren tolle Aufnahmen. Wie jene von Stefan und Daniel Gottfried, entstanden in der Wiener Jesuitenkirche. Michael Gmasz hat auch dazu wieder die weiterführenden Infos. Mit Debussy und Ravel …  ins Kino – so lautet der etwas ungewöhnliche Titel unserer dieswöchigen CD-Empfehlung. So ungewöhnlich der Titel und die Stückauswahl, von den beiden Genannten hin zu Nino Rota, John Williams, Ennio Morricone, Bernard Herrmann und dem Schlager Mona Lisa von Evans und Livingston, so ungewöhnlich mutet auf den ersten Blick auch die Besetzung an – Saxophon und Orgel. Doch die beiden Brüder Stefan Gottfried, der Saxophonist, und Daniel Gottfried, der Organist, musizieren schon seit Jahren miteinander und beweisen nun auch auf CD ein erstes Mal, wie gut die beiden Instrumente harmonieren. Sämtliche Werke auf dieser CD sind eigens für die Besetzung Saxophon und Orgel arrangiert, mit den französischen Impressionisten Claude Debussy und Maurice Ravel haben sich die Gottfried Brüder Musik ausgesucht, die schon selbst Bilder im Kopf entstehen lässt, noch bevor es den Kinematographen und erste Filmmusiken gegeben hat. So beginnt die CD mit dem Nachmittag eines Fauns schon so, als hätte es Debussy nie anders gedacht. Mit dem Solosaxophon, dem bald darauf die Orgel einen misterioso Teppich legt, fast wie bei einer Herrmann'schen Filmmusik. Ganz andere Farben dann bei der ersten Arabeske und der Sonatine von Maurice Ravel. Stefan Gottfried wechselt immer wieder zwischen Alt- und Sopransaxophon, während Daniel im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes alle Register der modernen Späth-Orgel in der Wiener Jesuitenkirchen zieht. Apropos Hermann, seine Psycho Filmmusik eröffnet den zweiten Teil der CD, bei dem dann tatsächlich das Kino im Mittelpunkt steht. Herrlich hier vor allem die Suite zusammengestellt und arrangiert aus Ausschnitten von Nino Rotas legendärer Filmmusik zu Francis Ford Coppolas Paten-Trilogie. (mg)

Chamblee worked with many legendary performers, including Lionel Hampton, T-Bone Walker, Memphis Slim, and Dinah Washington. In fact, Chamblee was married to Dinah Washington in 1957. Eddie Chamblee was born, in Atlanta, Georgia in 1920. By 1928, he was living in Indianapolis. His father, Robert Chamblee, was president of the Citizens Life Insurance Company. Their offices were located at 229 Indiana Avenue. After spending several years in Indianapolis, Chamblee's family moved to Chicago. But Chamblee would eventually return to Indianapolis.  From 1953, to 1955, Chamblee held down a series of steady gigs at the Indiana Avenue club George's Bar, where he became famous for playing his sax while swinging from the club's rafters. During the 1950s, Chamblee performed at many Indiana Avenue venues, including Sunset Terrace, the Walker Theatre, and Ferguson Hotel.

Join Yasi and Steven, along with Athletes and the Arts co-founder Randy Dick, as we talk to the quintessential Athlete and Artist, Tim Cunningham. He turned down a chance to play in the NFL to pursue a career as a professional jazz musician. Thirty years later, after recording 8 albums and touring all over the world, he is still going strong. He talks about the difficulty playing Division 1 football, maintaining his passion for music over the years, and staying healthy while playing the sax.Tim's website: www.timcunninghammusic.comInstagram: @tim.cunninghamsaxophonistFacebook: @TimCunninghamMusicPageBio: When Tim Cunningham was faced with the choice between the football field or the musical stage, fortunately he chose the latter. Having played the saxophone for over half his life, Tim spent his college years at Michigan State splitting his time between playing defense and playing music. And although a football scholarship saw him through school, his passion for the sax has carried him well beyond, as he passed up an NFL contract and eventually pursued a career in music.For decades the words "smooth , sultry, cool & funky" have been used to describe Tim's high energy and emotional stage show as his sexy blend of smooth jazz and soulful R&B connects with people of all ages, races and genres of music. This unique and versatile style has earned Tim the pleasure of opening for jazz greats Dave Koz, Norman Brown, Brian Culbertson and George Benson. On the flip side, his bumpin' R&B flavor has on occasion paired him with Earth Wind & Fire, Cameo, Boyz II Men, Patti Labelle, Frankie Beverly, Jeffrey Osborne, and the late Luther Vandross.Signed to Atlantic Records in 1994 Tim's first major label release, "Right Turn Only," featuring the efforts of Will Downing, Brian Culbertson, Kevin Whalum, and Bobby Lyle was released in 1996. It's featured single, "This is the Life," hit #19 on the Smooth Jazz Chart and received much international airplay. Tim's additional CD credits include "Sax Change Operation", "A Change in Altotude", "Waiting For Love", "Inner Peace", and "Manchester Road" which was picked up by Nite Breeze Music/Universal in 2008. His 2011 release entitled "Reflection", features a cool collection of original tracks packed with smooth grooves and emotional ballads. In 2012 Tim recorded and released "Tim Cunningham Live" where he covered a collection of some of his favorite songs.In 2019 Tim hosted and performed in the 1st Annual Smooth Jazz Cruise on Land in St. Louis. This inaugural festival featured Brian Culbertson, Eric Darius, Grace Kelly and Erin Bode and was produced by Entertainment Cruises Productions and producers of the Smooth Jazz Cruise.Tim's experiences bridge beyond the live stage to TV as he co-wrote and performed the theme song to 20th Century Fox's "Bertice Berry Show". He also appeared in the movie, "The Ghost Who Walks" as Officer Taylor, three episodes of "The Untouchables" TV series as The Saxophonist, BET's "Jazz Central and a commercial spot for Budweiser. In 2021 "Smile" co-written with Al Caldwell from Tim's "Waiting for Love" CD was featured in the movie, "The Job" written, directed and produced by Randy J. Goodwin.In October 2022, after nearly a 10 year recording hiatus "Freedom" was released, with his new single, "Enough Said" (remix) climbing the Smooth Jazz Network , Radio Wave and Smoothjazz.com charts.
