Extractions: Throughout a busy musical career which got underway in the early 50's, Dick Hyman has functioned as a pianist, organist, arranger, conductor, and composer. His versatility in all these areas has resulted in well over one hundred albums recorded under his own name and many more in support of other artists. While developing a masterful facility for improvisation in his own piano style, Mr. Hyman has investigated the earliest periods of jazz and ragtime and has researched and recorded the music of Scott Joplin, Jelly Roll Morton, James P. Johnson, Zez Confrey, Eubie Blake, Fats Waller, and other early figures. He includes this historical material in his frequent solo recitals. Other solo recordings include the music of Irving Berlin, Harold Arlen, Cole Porter, George Gershwin, and Duke Ellington. A new recording with orchestra is known as From The Age Of Swing. Mr. Hyman's concert compositions include his Piano Concerto, Ragtime Fantasy, and Sonata For Violin And Piano. In his numerous public appearances he has performed solo, with orchestra, with his own quintet, with cornetist Ruby Braff, and in duo-piano appearances with Derek Smith, Roger Kellaway, Ralph Sutton, and the late Dick Wellstood. For the past ten summers he has acted as artistic director of the acclaimed Jazz In July series of concerts at New York's 92nd St. Y and frequently appears in the United States and abroad in solo recitals.

Extractions: James Dick is a brilliant artist as well as a visionary. While pursuing a distinguished career as a concert pianist, he began the Festival-Institute in 1971 with concerts in the Winedale performance barn. Many of the Festival's first concerts were in tents on the property of supporters. Slowly, and with remarkable care, he and the brilliant team he has created, have produced a remarkable institution with a 200 acre campus of incomparable beauty. The wooded countryside on the edge of Round Top nestles wonder after wonder. Stone bridges lead to beautifully restored Victorian homes surrounded by clever herb gardens amidst crumbling ruins. It's dreamlike. There's a reason for that. It was a dream. James Dick's dream...at least the first part of it...has come true. Read the Round Top Register's interview of this fascinating man. He graduated from the University of Texas with special honors in piano in 1963. He was a student of pianist and pedagogue Dalies Frantz. Subsequently, Dick received two Fulbright Fellowships for study at the Royal Academy of Music in London and private study with Sir Clifford Curzon, a major pianist of this century. Dick was also a top winner in the Tchaikovsky, Busoni and Leventritt international competitions and since, represented the United States on the juries of the Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow and the Van Cliburn Piano Competition in Fort Worth.

Extractions: (From interview in 1996) Festival Hill - He didnt like the word visionary very much. Like the word dream, it sounded flighty and impermanent to him... somehow temporary...and James Dick is not at all interested in the word temporary. I went to this interview as an unabashed admirer. I didnt even pretend to be objective. This is a man who has accomplished many things that I admire and more, a man whose goals and values have served as a model for me. When I told him all this, he dismissed it. I am not sure he was embarrassed by my adulation but I am quite sure that he considered it irrelevant. Mr. Dick is interested in what he and others can do with the gifts they are given, not what they say. James Dick has done a few things in his life.

Extractions: "Dick's outing was in Rachmaninoff's "Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini", where everything came together gloriously. The orchestra with Boreyko pounced on every cue. Dick was every bit poetic, demonstrative and flashy where required. The sum total was that Dick was involved with the score so intimately that everything seemed second nature." Jay Foraker, San Antonio Southside Reporter, June 27, 2002 "There followed a graceful, finely spun performance of Mozart's G-major piano concerto, K. 453, featuring James Dick. He gave an unusually expressive, ruminative interpretation of the second movement. The final holds the bright little tune that Mozart's pet starling learned to whistle. Dick's reading of that theme and variations fairly danced with brisk, crystalline passagework." Diane Windeler, San Antonio Express News, April 14, 2002 "The elegance of Dick's finger work was a marvel. No pounding excesses or crabbed uncertainties were found here. Just poetic passagework that resulted from a technique that produces subtle shadings and musical phrases that "flowed like oil," which Mozart often said should occur in performances of his keyboard works. While Dick's playing was often delicate and caressing in the best sense, there also was an underlying strength and firmness of character always evident." (Mozart's Piano Concerto in G, K.453)

Extractions: Long Way From St. Louis: The Story of Jazz Pianist Ralph Sutton Broadcast the week of 11/1/01 Left: Ralph Sutton at the Landing, March, 2000. Photo: Don Mopsick Ralph Earl Sutton was born in Hamburg, Missouri on November 4, 1922. His career got under way when he joined Jack Teagarden in 1941 while he was still in college. During the 1940s he attracted widespread attention, thanks to his participation in a series of radio shows hosted by jazz writer Rudi Blesh ,This is Jazz . He had a trio with Albert Nicholas, and beginning in 1948 he worked eight years as intermission pianist at Eddie Condon's club in New York. Later he worked for Bob Scobey and, in 1963, was featured at the first Dick Gibson Jazz Party in Denver which was to lead to the formation in 1968 of the World's Greatest Jazzband. Sutton was a founding member. Thereafter, Sutton's star rose and remains in the ascendancy with a series of record albums and world tours, solo and in a variety of settings. His musical partners in these ventures included Ruby Braff, Jay McShann Kenny Davern , and Peanuts Hucko . He continues to perform with great panache and a seemingly undiminished level of invention into the 21st century. An outstanding pianist in the great tradition of stride giants such as James P. Johnson and Fats Waller, Sutton's style is both forceful and lightly dancing, as the needs of his repertoire demand. Drawing from the century-old tradition of jazz piano, from ragtime through the blues to Harlem stride, Sutton brings to his playing such inventive enthusiasm that everything he does seems freshly minted.
