Everyone knows that describing John Zorn as a prolific composer is an understatement. Everyone also knows how inclusive he has been, sharing his compositions with the many musicians who are in his circle of trust. Countless renditions of his music have been recorded by these musicians for Zorn's label, Tzadik. To mark his birthday, on September 2nd, here we will focus on interpretations of the John Zorn songbook, mostly Masada Book One, which have been a bit more independent and have come out on albums not on Tzadik. The playlist features Wayne Horvitz; Rope; Annette Maye; Admah Hotel; Gabriele Coen; Roberto Gatto; Xavier Dubois; Surnatural Orchestra; and the Silkroad Ensemble.

Nel '92 John Zorn e Marc Ribot firmarono un manifesto sulla "nuova cultura radicale ebraica": trent'anni fa la presa di posizione di Zorn e Ribot rappresentò uno spartiacque rispetto alla percezione della presenza ebraica nella musica americana innovativa del Novecento, molto più diffusa di quello che si era abituati a pensare: dalla maggior parte dei grandi autori del Great American Songbook e fino a Bacharach, da moltissimi dei più importanti jazzmen bianchi ad alcune decisive figure del rock, come Bob Dylan, Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, da un minimalista come Steve Reich a molti degli americani di Musica Elettronica Viva, e poi moltissimi dei protagonisti dell'avantgarde bianca newyorkese emersa fra anni settanta e ottanta di cui Zorn è stato il catalizzatore. Nel '95 Zorn con la sua etichetta Tzadik vara la collana Great Jewish Music, nella quale nel '97 pubblica un doppio Cd dedicato alla musica di Bacharach: prodotto da Zorn, con venti brani realizzati da un ampio assortimento di formazioni e artisti, da Wayne Horvitz a Dave Douglas, da Marc Ribot a Joey Baron, da Zeena Parkins a Ikue Mori, da Medeski Martin and Wood a Bill Frisell, il volume della Tzadik è un originale omaggio a Bacharach e un brillante spaccato della scena avantgarde newyorkese di fine Novecento.

Our guest this episode is Keith Lowe, a fantastically talented bassist from Seattle who is releasing his first solo album of his career on 1/20/23, an EP of beautiful ambient music textured almost entirely with upright bass performances.

He currently teaches bass at Seattle Drum School and performs regularly with Teatro Zinzani in Seattle.  If you're enjoying the Couch Riffs Podcast please support us on Patreon.

Featuring a smooth jam from israeli/NYC guitarist singer/songwriter Dida Pelled; Brooklyn trumpeter extraordinaire Kenny Warren and his crushing quartet; the ambient dreamworld created by Spencer Zahn and Dawn Richard; a magical track from a top artist, Anoushka Shankar; Seattle legend Wayne Horvitz with his compadres presenting the Snowghost Sessions; NYC genre-bending chanteuse Leslie Mendelson; and finally two of the greatest: Stan Getz and the purple one, Prince.

Wayne Horvitz is among the most accomplished living composers, as well as a prolific pianist, producer, professor, collaborator and curator. But rather than rest on his laurels, he continues to bring strikingly original new music into the world. In this episode of the RBM podcast we meet this right brain music icon and hear a wide sampling of his work.

“A Woman’s Work (Is Never Done),” featuring Wayne Horvitz on piano, is included on Reggie Garrett’s new album York’s Lament & Other Stories, which was produced with assistance from the Jack Straw Artist Support Program. The album CD and download will be available for purchase from Drums and Wires Recordings. The post Reggie Garrett – A Woman’s Work (Is Never Done) appeared first on Jack Straw Cultural Center.

On today's episode, I talk to musician Robin Holcomb. Originally from Savannah, Georgia, Robin grew up in the Bay Area and began playing piano when she was six. In 1977, she moved with her partner, composer Wayne Horvitz, to New York City and was one of the foundational members of the NY downtown art scene. Since then, she has composed works for orchestras from Portland to Philly, has been awarded grants from the National Endowment for the Arts to the League of American Orchestras, and recorded albums for labels from Tzadik to Nonesuch. Her latest album, One Way or Another, vol. 1, was just released on Westerlies Records, and it's great! This is the website for Beginnings, subscribe on Apple Podcasts, follow me on Twitter.

"Lonely Woman" Naked City: Naked City (Elektra Nonesuch, 1990) Naked City era, ni más ni menos, que un supergrupo integrado por John Zorn, Bill Frisell, Fred Frith, Joey Baron, Wayne Horvitz, Yamatsuka Eye. El tema es la celebérrima composición de Ornette Coleman. La fotografía de la portada del disco fue tomada por Arthur H. Fellig, más conocido como Weegee. Joan Cortès seleccionó una exposición del fotógrafo y a John Zorn en la sección 365 razónes para amar el jazz: https://www.tomajazz.com/web/?p=32008 Aunque su primera obra ya daba pistas acerca de sus siguientes grabaciones con temas como "Punk China Doll", era a su vez un homenaje al cine negro, al punk, al jazz... Este grupo fue algo así como una batidora que le sirvió a John Zorn para experimentar con las limitaciones de un grupo con una formación más propia del rock, y con una formación de músicos de primer orden. Por otra parte, es curioso que un artista como John Zorn llamase la atención de una discogáfica como Nonesuch, en la que llegó a publicar tres grabaciones, todas ellas más que recomendables.  © Pachi Tapiz, 2021 JazzX5 es un minipodcast de HDO de la Factoría Tomajazz presentado, editado y producido por Pachi Tapiz.

I speak with the innovative cellist, improvisor and composer Peggy Lee, who is a band-leader and sought-after collaborator in Vancouver, Canada. Peggy collaborates frequently with Ron Samworth and Tony Wilson and with her husband, drummer Dylan van der Schyff, as well as with many other longtime musical associates including Dave Douglas, Wayne Horvitz, Robin Holcomb, Veda Hille and Lisa Miller. She also leads or co-leads a number of musical projects: The Peggy Lee Band, Film in Music, Waxwing (with Tony Wilson and Jon Bentley) and Beautiful Tool (with Mary Margaret O'Hara). She has also collaborated extensively in theatre and dance with companies and artists such as Ruby Slippers, Rumble Theatre, Presentation House, David Hudgins, Peter Bingham and Delia Brett. In 2005, Peggy received the Freddie Stone Award for integrity and innovation in music and in 2010 she was awarded a Jesse Richardson Theatre Award for outstanding composition. http://www.peggylee.net/about-peggy.html The original video versions of this series are here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYOGF0ZHOdI0236QiDT_SGzUdALNXW06z As a bonus episode, you can hear me play a free improvisation with her. photo credit: Rita Taylor --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/leah-roseman/message

The extrovert pianism of Stefano Bollani and Benito Gonzalez opens this show, which then dives into recent Nordic and Eastern European jazz (Fredrik Nordström, Julia Karosi, JAF Trio), embraces the compelling melodicism of Roberto Spadoni, Chris Pattishall, Stefano Coppari, Wayne Horvitz and Sara Schoenbeck, explores the music of two adventurous Canadians (Lina Allemano and Francois Houle), before landing in Ornette-land courtesy of Miguel Zenon.

This week we put together an energy-packed playlist to boost us towards the finishing line of the winter season. At the heart of the show is electric jazz, from a rather guitar-centric set of bands. They oscillate between the shredding power of Hedvig Mollestad or Marbin, and the legacy of the New York Downtown scene that has started emerging from the vaults of Wayne Horvitz and has echoes coming back to us from across the world: exhibit A the Belgian band Echoes of Zoo; exhibit B: French drummer Anne Pacéo's project Circles. A second taste of two current favorites, the Pino Palladino - Blake Mills collaboration and the Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio, Chris Potter's compelling one-man-show, the intricate philigrane of Shijin and Tamil Rogeon's electro-spiritual jazz adventures complete this journey in our stashes of new and upcoming releases.

Every age has a number of defining musicians, who stand-out for their innovations and distinctive voices. For us growing up musically in the 1980s and 1990s and interested in forward looking music Bill Frisell is one of these foundational figures. His instrumental style is certainly unique and has shaped the way the following generations have approached the guitar, and--more and more so--his compositions are being embraced by his peers. His tunes integrate sources as diverse as country music, rock, pop, surf music or American contemporary and classical music into jazz. They contain many familiar traits which are hard to pin down because they've been revisited through Frisell's original vision, creating a brand of Americana that has become influential well beyond the confines of the US. With tunes like "Throughout" or "Strange Meeting" having been covered by tens of musicians, Bill Frisell' songbook is becoming as influential as his instrumental style Here we'll explore renditions of his songs by Michael Gibbs; Wayne Horvitz; Unscientific Italians; Elvis Costello and Metropole Orkest; Molly Johnson; Steve Argüelles; Aljosa Jeric; Charlie Haden; Tony Malaby; Noël Akchoté; Dylan-Thomas Vance and Griff Bear; and Jerry Douglas.

On today's episode I talk to drummer and composer Bobby Previte. Originally from Niagara Falls, New York, Bobby was one of the seminal figures of the 1980s New York ‘Downtown’ scene that included John Zorn, Wayne Horvitz, and Elliott Sharp, and his original compositions have been recorded and released on labels like Sony, Elektra, Tzadik. He's also led a plethora of diverse ensembles from behind his drums and has collaborated with many of the leading lights in and beyond the world of music, including master composer John Adams, iconic singer Tom Waits, pantheon filmmaker Robert Altman, and most recently, rock legend Iggy Pop. He's also the recipient of the 2015 Greenfield Prize for music and was a Guggenheim Foundation Fellow in 2012, and his latest albums are a series of live recordings called Groundtruther, which you can get on his Bandcamp site now!

Circus is like Jazz. They both require a great deal of originality and a capacity to improvise and be in the moment. They come out of a sense of artistic urgency and self-expression since they are not arts that people embrace to get rich. And they both demand incredible dedication and discipline. We explore the connections between these two art forms, focusing on jazz inspired by the circus world, composed for circus shows, or evoking-in a way or another-"The Greatest Show on Earth" Sit back, relax, enjoy the show, and, like Charles Mingus put it, "Don't Be Afraid, the Clown's Afraid Too". The playlist features Art Blakey, Raffaello Pareti, Django Bates, Emile Parisien, Vincent Peirani, Otello Savoia, Michael Shrieve, Bobby Previte, Kamikaze Ground Crew, Richard Galliano, Sexmob, Wayne Horvitz, Geri Allen, Mary Lou Williams, Leïla Martial, Charles Mingus, Willem Breuker, and Henry Threadgill.

Featuring a freshly dropped jam from Brooklyn artist So Brown; Norah Jones' 2020 Blue Note release feat. Jesse Murphy and Brian Blade; Chicago indie guitar legend Jeff Parker; longtime duo collaborators pianist Wayne Horvitz and bassoonist Sara Schoenbeck; this year's reboot/reunion of Joshua Redman's famed 90's quartet feat. Mehldau, McBride, and Blade; cutting edge serialist modernism from NYC artist Michi Wiancko on the New Amsterdam label; a brand new single on the Verve label from Diana Krall; the one-eyed pride of NOLA aka the Bayou Maharaja, James Booker; and the legendary institution that is Black Uhuru.

Jazz from Vancouver BC and Spokane as well as Seattle is on this week’s Jazz Northwest. Vancouver is represented by trumpet player-composer Brad Turner whose quartet is joined by New York-based tenor saxophonist Seamus Blake, who grew up in Vancouver. From Spokane comes The Whitworth Jazz Ensemble directed by Dan Keberle, playing music by the multi-award-winning composer-arranger Maria Schneider. Seattle groups on this week’s show feature Jay Thomas, Thomas Marriott, Kelley Johnson, Bill Anschell and Wayne Horvitz, who is celebrating his 65th birthday this weekend with performances at The Royal Room. Jazz Northwest is recorded and produced by host Jim Wilke and airs Sundays at 2 p.m. Listeners may also subscribe to the podcast at KNKX, NPR, Apple , or Google .

Engineer and producer Tucker Martine joins me on the show this week. Tucker has been operating out of a couple of incarnations of his own studio, Flora Recording and Playback, for quite a few years now. He has recorded and/or produced acclaimed records for a diverse cast of characters like The Decemberists, Bill Frisell, My Morning Jacket, Wayne Horvitz, Neko Case, Laura Veirs and many more. Tucker has an amazing sense of depth and tone that comes through in his recordings, which is a reflection of how much he cares for the art of recording itself. I wanted to have Tucker on the show to talk about some of his experiences making those records, as well as building his studio and some of the joys and trials of that process. We had a great time digging deep, and I hope you enjoy it! We’re coming to you bi-weekly now during the virus, and welcome your calls to talk about what’s keeping you busy and creative during this time.

Fra Lost in the Stars e un nuovo album-tributo allestito da Willner, dedicato questa volta alle musiche dei grandi film a cartoni animati di Walt Disney, passano tre anni. Nel frattempo Willner ha lasciato il ruolo di coordinatore musicale di Saturday Night Live ed è passato a collaborare - lavoro che farà per qualche tempo - con Night Music, altro programma televisivo, sempre della NBC, dove porta fra gli altri John Cale, Miles Davis, John Zorn, Leonard Cohen, Sonny Rollins. Rispetto a Lost in the Stars, con Stay Awake, che esce nell'88, la creatività riprende quota. Scorriamo l'album ascoltando musiche da Pinocchio, Bambi, Dumbo, il libro della giungla, Biancaneve e i sette nani, La bella addormentata nel bosco, Mary Poppins, La carica dei cento e uno e altri film ancora, interpretati da Bill Frisell e Wayne Horvitz con la voce - molto popolare negli Usa - di Ken Nordine, Natalie Merchant con Michael Stipe, Los Lobos, Bonnie Raitt con i Was (Not Was), Tom Waits, Suzanne Vega, Syd Straw, Buster Poindexter, Yma Sumac con Lennie Niehaus, Aaron Neville con Dr John, Garth Hudson, NRBQ, Betty Carter, Replacements, Sinhead O'Connor, Sun Ra. Nella prossima puntata i brani finali dell'album, con protagonisti James Taylor, e Ringo Starr con Herb Alpert.

Nella puntata del 18 marzo 2019 avevamo presentato The Wayne Horvitz European Orchestra Live at the Bimhuis, pubblicato da Novara Jazz. In questa puntata torniamo su questo protagonista del jazz d'avanguardia newyorkese degli anni ottanta e novanta (lo ricordiamo fra l'altro tastierista in Naked City di John Zorn) con due album usciti di recente. Horvitz si è nel frattempo trasferito a Seattle, e Those Who Remain (etichetta National Sawdust Tracks) è un lavoro che era stato commissionato e presentato dalla Seattle Symphony nell'ottobre 2015, con Bill Frisell come solista alla chitarra elettrica, e poi registrato nel 2016: un lavoro che è valso a Horvitz il primo premio dell'American Prize in Composition per orchestra. The Snowghost Sessions (etichetta Songlines) è stato invece registrato nel 2015 in trio ed è cointestato a Horvitz e ai suoi due partner, il contrabbassista Geoff Harper e il batterista e percussionista Eric Eagle: è l'occasione di ascoltare Horvitz come strumentista, di grande sensibilità e finezza al piano acustico, oltre che al piano elettrico, all'hammond, eccetera.

Due brillanti compagini in cui troviamo assieme musicisti italiani e non. The J. and F. Band è cointestata al contrabbassista Joe Fonda e al musicista afroamericano Jaimoe, storico batterista degli Allman Brothers: nella formazione base (più ospiti) che ha inciso From The Roots To The Sky (Long Song Records), c'è anche Tiziano Tononi, che nel 2017 ha pubblicato Trouble No More... All Men Are Brothers, un appassionato omaggio - con al basso e al basso elettrico Joe Fonda - agli Allman Brothers, formazione di culto significativamente influenzata dal jazz d'avanguardia. Wayne Horvitz è stato una delle figure di spicco della scena della nuova avanguardia newyorkese emersa negli anni ottanta; trasferitosi a Seattle, ha dato vita ad una compagine con cui ha fatto tesoro del metodo della "conduction" sviluppato dal suo mentore, il compianto Butch Morris. Nella primavera 2014 Horvitz in una residenza nell'ambito di Novara Jazz ha lavorato con una versione europea di questa compagine, con musicisti italiani e di altre nazionalità: nell'ottobre successivo The Wayne Horvitz European Orchestra si è esibita con grande successo al Bimhuis di Amsterdam, e la registrazione si è adesso tradotta in un album, Live at the Bimhuis, seconda uscita della Novara Jazz Series.

This episode shows a different type of musical journey and approach to music-making outside of the classical world! I speak with bass player Kaveh Rastegar about his journey building a successful and varied international career, and his hands-on approach to creating music and to practicing. Kaveh is highly on-demand in the LA scene and collaborates with some of today's most popular artists like CeeLo Green and Bruno mars. Kaveh has a fascinating background, playing a wide range of genres, from classical to reggae and punk rock. He is a member of the Grammy nominated band Kneebody and is currently on tour with singer John Legend. His story is a great reminder, especially for those at the starting stages, that a musical career is not just about big gestures and big decisions. It's built with the succession of little events that might seem inconspicuous at first, but end up adding up and can lead us to so many great opportunities and accomplishments. Whether it's a chance meeting, a conversation, or being exposed to something new - all of this can open a world of new possibilities.

Legendary Drummer, Michael Shrieve spends time with On The Scene SF/O for a 2-Part conversation.   Shrieve is often hailed as one of the highlights for his fiery drum solo during Santana’s “Soul Sacrifice”, as captured in the 1969 Festival’s film, Woodstock. He seeks out interesting people, and artists to embolden his creative output. Considered a music experimentalist, the drummer, percussionist, producer, and composer, has been involved in a wide array of innovative projects since his tenure in Santana, ranging from electronic music, to fusion, jazz, improvised music, and appeared on notable commercial outings, such as the Rolling Stones’ Emotional Rescue (on percussion) in 1980, and later on Mick Jagger’s “She’s the Boss” album.

Composer Wayne Horvitz put together this amazing band of young men and women from Seattle's junior colleges and high schools and picked the cream of the crop to perform these 13 compositions. The playing is extraordinary with many fine solos by these young unknowns. The compositions are superb and demonstrate Mr. Horvitz' influences: Basie, Ellington, Mingus, Evans but most of all the originality of Wayne Horvitz. The band has 3 trumpets, 3 trombones, a clarinet, a soprano saxophone, an alto, tenor and baritone saxophone and piano bass and drums. A basic big band but this is not an ordinary band but and extraordinary one. The album was produced by Vancouver's Tony Reif and issued on Songlines Records and is called "At The Reception". Check out some very original music right here!
