A lot of listeners worry that jazz has ossified in the last, say, fifty years or so, but Mike decides to do something about it, terminological speaking, anyway.  So this fortnight's episode explores the difference between curating a tradition and trying to create something new within it. Our test subjects comprise three brand-new releases (two instrumental, one vocal) and a vocal album from the nineties paying tribute to the Prince of Darkness himself, Miles Davis.  Curtis Taylor – TAYLOR MADE; Brandon Goldberg– LIVE AT DIZZY'S; April Varner – APRIL; Shirley Horn – I REMEMBER MILES.

"I didn't want to do any middle level teaching because of behavior, but I ended up teaching eight years at Patrick Henry Junior High. I loved every moment of it. I learned that if the kids loved and trusted you, they would do anything for you. It was just so much fun to take what they were willing to give and do some good work with them. It all translated into how they behaved in choir."Cathleen Britton has been making music her entire life.

Heute mit Efrat Alony. Seit ihrem ersten und letzten Auftritt mit dem Zurich Jazz Orchestra sind inzwischen 16 Jahre vergangen. Anlässlich des diesjährigen Konzerts haben wir mit Efrat Alony über ihre damalige Erfahrung im Vergleich zur heutigen gesprochen - und über vieles mehr: Welchen Beruf sie fast eingeschlagen hätte, ihre Studienzeit, und wie sich der Kreis mit ihrem neuen Album «Händel - Fast Forward» schliesst. Auch erzählt sie uns von der Bedeutung der Musik als Brücke zwischen verschiedenen Menschen, ihrem Kompositionsprozess, ihrer langjährigen Zusammenarbeit mit Ed Partyka, ihren Werten als Gesangsdozentin und vom Musikbusiness mit all seinen Hürden.

“Over the Rainbow”, “Get Happy”, “Come Rain or Come Shine”. These are the songs you have been singing your whole life, and now is your chance to learn about who wrote them! In this week's episode, travel somewhere over the rainbow into the singular mind of renowned composer Harold Arlen, a key contributor to the American Songbook whose hundreds of pop tunes became runaway hits during the 1930s, ‘40s, and ‘50s. Arlen collaborated with the greatest of the Tin Pan Alley lyricists, including E.Y. "Yip" Harburg, Johnny Mercer, Ted Koehler, Ira Gershwin, Dorothy Fields, and Truman Capote. While any number of Arlen's compositions assured his prominent place in musical history, the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) deemed “Over the Rainbow” to be the 20th century's greatest song.

“I Got Rhythm”, “Summertime”, “The Man I Love”. These are the songs you have been singing your whole life, and now is your chance to learn about who wrote them! In this week's episode, the men you love are at the forefront: George and Ira Gershwin, brothers who sometimes seemed to write their hits with four hands and one brain. George's gift for melody and Ira's ability to seamlessly blend lyrical sophistication with the American vernacular made for a plethora of immortal songs that both reflected and shaped the dynamic forces of American modernism during the Jazz Age. Hear directly from Michael Feinstein, Norm Lewis, and more, as they guide you through the astounding lives of these two geniuses, cut from the same cloth.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

“You're the Top”, “I've Got You Under My Skin”, “Love for Sale”. These are the songs you have been singing your whole life, and now is your chance to learn about who wrote them! In this week's episode, you'll fall freely in love with Cole Porter, the master of melody and lyrics who changed the soundscape and language of American music - and America itself. Writing songs for over 30 stage and film musicals, his best work set standards of sophistication and wit seldom matched in the popular musical theater. And, as explained by pioneering songwriter Justin Tranter, Porter blazed the trail for generations of queer writers to come, pushing boundaries and challenging the status quo of the American musical form. Featuring key interviews from acclaimed writer Adam Gopnik and musical icon Elvis Costello, this episode illuminates the magic of Cole Porter.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

“Wouldn't It Be Loverly”, “Get Me to the Church on Time”, “If Ever I Would Leave You”. These are the songs you have been singing your whole life, and now is your chance to learn about who wrote them! This week's episode is guaranteed to be “loverly”, as we dive headfirst into the life and times of Alan Jay Lerner & Frederick Loewe, one of the greatest songwriting teams in history responsible for the most stylish, sophisticated theater music of the 20th century. The Lerner-Loewe formula was to combine Loewe's lush, melodic music, redolent of Viennese waltz, with Lerner's witty, literate lyrics; this they did in some of the most popular and best-remembered musicals of the mid-20th Century, including My Fair Lady, Brigadoon, and Camelot. As told by scholars such as Laurence Maslon as well as Liza Lerner, Alan Lerner's daughter, the origin story of Lerner & Loewe illuminates how their disparate paths converged to form a dynamic duo that would define the future of American musical theater.

"Going Pop" can mean many different things where jazz musicians are concerned, from adding electricity (dang it, Miles, why you do that?), to covering pop songs, to actually experimenting with writing pop songs (not too many take this path and few emerge unscathed).  And then there's rare jazzer combining jazz and pop songs, as you'll soon find out.   This time out we look at approaches all over the spectrum, ending with a vocal album Mike has already pegged as an album of the year contender.  Cecile McLoren – GHOST SONG; John Pizzarelli – DOUBLE EXPOSURE; Reuben Wilson – LOVE BUG; Bill O'Connell – A CHANGE IS GONNA COME.

Today, my big sister Amanda Greatorex and I talk about her life as a mother and a musician. At 29 years old, Amanda is wife to her high school sweetheart Andy and mother to four children under the age of six. She describes how being the firstborn of five kids spurred her to be an independent forward-thinker who follows her gut--even when her gut leads her down paths that a lot of her peers aren't traveling yet. We talk about her college experience studying Vocal Jazz at the University of North Texas, and what led her to move back to New Jersey shortly after graduation to get married and start a family. We also discuss the challenges of balancing a career as a musician with parenthood, as well as her recent experience with postpartum depression and the wisdom she's gleaned from the early years of motherhood. We laugh, swap stories, talk about sibling dynamics, and discuss our differences in personality.  You can learn more by visiting the Shownotes page.

Fred Rogers never went to 'Nam - that's just one of the many insights we learn from interviewing the charming and talented Keri Johnsrud about her collaboration with pianist Kevin Bales based on songs written by the man we like to call "Cole Porter in a cardigan." After the interview, the boys discuss three other albums with at least a tangential relationship to children's music because, hey, that's a theme, people. Kevin Bales & Keri Johnsrud - BEYOND THE NEIGHBORHOOD; Jamie Cullum - TWENTYSOMETHING; Meredith d'Ambrosio - SLEEP WARM; Donna Leonhart - BEIN' GREEN.

I recently visited my alma mater, Carson High School, where the Drama department presented Disney's "Beauty and the Beast." It was a great closing performance and I met some of the cast, members of the production team, and other wonderful people. I spoke with Director Marcia Barryte, and it is evident, through her dedication and passionate efforts, she helped put Carson High School back on the map with a much-needed Performing and Media Academy program. With the help and support of the parent volunteers, Principal, Dr. Windy Warren, and Los Angeles Unified School District Senior Executive Director of Arts in Education, Dr. Rory Pullens, the program continues to flourish and produce quality shows. More importantly, it has sparked the interests of many students, many who have never performed before, but who have discovered a newfound love for theater arts. Choreographer Ray Garcia (original Tony Award-winning Broadway musical "Rent") and Vocal Director Jolly Rodriguez talked about watching the students grow from Day 1, reflecting on how much they have improved and flourished, and more importantly, how much the program has boosted confidence levels. Theater Arts also promotes the importance of academics. As with any curricular activity, students must maintain a certain GPA in order to participate, therefore education is clearly the number one priority at Carson High School. I am proud of Carson High School! It was here I began my musical theater career starring as Kim McAfee in "Bye Bye Birdie" and Daisy Mae in "Li'l Abner." I was also involved in Vocal Jazz, a small vocal group that performed in several programs and participated in competitions. I am especially proud to have been a part of a reputable sisterhood called the "Bannergirls," a 12-member auxiliary squad who carried the shiny "CARSON" sign proudly at parades and performed at all football games during pre- and halftime shows. Together with the entire Carson High School Blue Thunder Marching Band and Auxiliary Units, we competed and won championships in regional and statewide competitions. Returning to the campus to watch the closing performance of "Beauty and the Beast" brought back wonderful memories of my time at Carson High School. They were some of the best years of my life. Without the arts and music programs, I wouldn't have made lifelong friends. I likely would not have pursued my passion and love for musical theater in college and thereafter. It goes without saying how truly important the Performing Arts and Media Academy at Carson High School is necessary and valuable in helping to transform lives! Please support the arts!

To welcome 2018, The Hot Box presents an all-singing show hosted as usual by former RTE presenter Donald Helme. This is a mix of Irish and American singers, with some special attention paid to the late Jon Hendrix, who also features in Donald's blog piece recalling Hendrix's residency in Ashbourne, Co. Meath back in the late 1960s. The show also presents a new singer who hails from the New England area of the US, Allegra Levy, who has, according to those in the know, or at any rate in the publicity business, “taken the jazz world by storm”. She is a real new voice on the scene, and composes much of her own work too.

Coming from Arkansas, the Jacksonville HS Vocal Jazz joined us to talk about how they've transitioned to more of a contemporary a cappella focus, and what that means for their sound. We talk about what it's like to join a group in flux, and how the members have helped shape what's ahead. They also sang some songs for us! Recorded in 2017 - now the group is called Natural State of Mind.

Every week thousands of songs are released to radio, on streaming platforms, on digital stores, on social media, mixtapes, & CD albums. It would be impossible for the average musick lover to absorb this & sift through them -- That's why you have me. I'm Jakob Musick, & I was meant for this. You could say it's in my blood, or genes. Or Whatever. Today, I'm going to be highlighting a few great songs as well as one terrible one in a variety of genres - Hip-hop, Electropop, Vocal Jazz, Soul-- Though today's show is mostly Pop. It is fascinating to look at how many disperate releases are actually products of the same conglomerates. French mega-corporation Vivendi is responsible for 1, 3, 4, & 7 (Pop, Hip-Hop, & Jazz!). Oftentimes the differents parts of the same giant organization might not even be aware of each other's existence. Regarding no. 1 , I believe Justin Timberlake's vocal from the original "Where Is The Love" was utilizes, & I distinctly believe I heard some Mary J. & Usher in the background vocals of the song. However, I have no seen any official confirmation of this. Today! 1. #WHEREISTHELOVE - Black Eyed Peas, The World, Nas, Mary J. Blige(?), Usher(?), Justin Timberlake (?) - Pop - Interscope (Vivendi) 2. The Great Divide - Rebecca Black - Pop - Self-released 3. Sauce - Game - Hip-Hop - The Black Wall Street (Vivendi) 4. Hard Girls - KT Tunstall - Pop - Jaydone (Vivendi) 5. I Was Wrong (PANG Remix) - A r i z o n a - Electropop - Warner Music Group 6. Human - Bebe Rexha - Pop - Warner Music Group 7. Soul Eyes - Kandace Springs, Terence Blanchard - Vocal Jazz - Blue Note (Vivendi) 8. I Hate Donald Trump - Emilio Rojas - Hip-Hop - Same Plate Worst. Epitome Of Beauty - Charice - Pop - Star Recordings (ABS-CBS) Best. People Don't Get What They Deserve - Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings - Soul - Daptone All except "Human" by Bebe Rexha are available now to stream & purchase. Please Support your artists!! Independent artists need your support on social media, spotify, & Itunes! Thank you!
