Piano Pieces, Ultimate? Piano Pieces From The Boston Review The pianist russell sherman has written a seriesof brief musings in fluid, sometimes florid prose without a trace of jargon http://www.musiciansnews.com/piano/51/piano_pieces.shtml
Extractions: The pianist Russell Sherman has written a series of brief musings in fluid, sometimes florid prose without a trace of jargon, their casual surfaces belying their aphoristic density. "A tone is beautiful only in context. . . .Things have meaning only in relation to other things," he says rightly, and his book casts a wide net of relationships on micro- and macroscopic scales, ranging from the pressure of a finger on a key to the pressures of contemporary culture and sliding effortlessly among more facets of the creative process than one might have dreamed existed. Sherman insists on the necessity of reconciling the endless profusion of irreconcilable oppositions that constitute "the discourse of thesis and contradiction intrinsic to profound and eventful works"

Extractions: Leslye Layne Russell, northern California poet, is also a performing singer and guitarist, and experienced minimalist dancer. Her two poetry books, A Quiet Place and Ku Mountain, will be out in early 2001. In 1969 Layne received her degree in English from Chico State where she studied poetry and writing with George Keithley. She did post-graduate work in Religious Studies at CSU, Chico, and in the Arts and Religious Studies at Naropa Institute, Boulder, Colorado. Layne's poetry has appeared in many poetry journals since she began publishing her work in 1996. After living in Sonoma County for twenty-six years where she raised her two daughters and stepson, Layne recently moved to Redding with her husband, guitarist James Russell, and their blue-eyed Lynx Point Siamese, Sky. Layne's extensive poetry web site, A Quiet Place, can be found at http://whiteowlweb.com. I have developed what I call the patchwork quilt approach to right livelihood. Being a writer, musician (singer-songwriter), dancer, photographer, and mother, I have done everything I can to keep my life flexible and my schedule my own. My independence has always been a priority. In 1990 I became credentialed in California to work as a substitute teacher and have been subbing for high schools since then. Substitute teaching was and still is a well-kept secret. I was almost in shock when I discovered it. I can choose which days I work and dont work, Im done with my day somewhere between noon and three, its enjoyable, I meet many wonderful educators and incredible kids, and its decent pay. It works.

Now Darby will get the piano bench all to herself when she performs this weekend in Palomar's "Fall Fantasy" program. Darby, who has performed numerous times around North County as a soloist, will perform Beethoven's Piano Concert No. 3 in C minor with the Palomar Symphony Orchestra, under the baton of Robert Gilson. Also on the bill are two orchestral works, Mozart's "Overture to the Impresario" and Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 4 in F minor. The "Fall Fantasy" concert had originally been scheduled with another pianist playing a Mendelsohn concerto, but that musician had to drop out of the program and Gilson called Darby last month to see if she could step in. Darby said she didn't feel she could prepare the Mendelsohn piece in time, so instead she will play a piece near and dear to her heart, Beethoven's third piano concerto.
Extractions: Raymond completed Brooklyn Technical High School, and then studied at the Institute of Musical Art for some years. He also played piano in his older brother's studio orchestras. In 1930, CBS hired him, and he stayed with them for four years, working as a staff pianist as well as writing background music for several radio shows. (In 1932, his brother Mark, played Raymond's "Christmas Night in Harlem" on the radio.) In 1936, Raymond left CBS and to become a member of a small group that included Bunny Berigan and Jerry Colonna, who later became a comedian on the Bob Hope Show. The group was featured on a radio show called "Saturday Night Swing". In 1937, Raymond formed his own group, consisting of Raymond on piano; Louis Schoobe; Peter Pumiglio; Johnny Williams; Dave Wade and Dave Harris. Here's an early photo of the

Russell Gunn - Ethnomusicology, Vol. 2 the efforts of multitalented pianist Marc Cary Personnel russell Gunn trumpet,flugelhorn, piano, fender Special guests sherman Irby flute, alto saxophone http://www.allaboutjazz.com/reviews/r1001_142.htm
Extractions: Trumpeter Russell Gunn demonstrated a very personal vision of jazz fusion on the first volume in this series, which generated a lot of media interest and earned him a Grammy nomination. He continues along the same vein with Ethnomusicology, Vol. 2, a fine showcase for his manifold crossover interests. It's too easy to dismiss this music as lightweight or trivial. Gunn is serious about his work, and there's ample evidence on Ethnomusicology, Vol. 2 to prove the point. His interpretation of Monk's "Epistrophy," for example, blows the original apart. Building layers of piano vamp, guitar pulse, bass bop, scratching, and hip-hop lyrics, this piece eventually settles into a harmonized statement of the theme on the horns. The foundations lay down a laid-back groove while Gunn takes his opportunity to solo convincingly on top. One tune later, on "Del Rio," he invades Afro-Latin rhythms with a Cubanized theme. It's all part of Gunn's extended continuum, which includes Go-Go swing piano ("It Don't Mean a Thing"), free improv ("Kebbi Williams Interlude"), Afro-Cuban dance music ("Del Rio"), understated Brazillian cool ("Dance of the Concubine"), hip-hop attitude ("Epistrophy"), and airtight funk ("Caravan"). Only the soul ballads "I Wish" and "Lyne's Joint" sag a bit at times, rearing the ugly head of smooth jazz.
Russell Gunn - Young Gunn Plus session with tenor saxophonist Sam Newsome, pianist John Hicks of many younger jazzartists, russell Gunn learned saxophonist Greg Tardy and flutist sherman Irby http://www.allaboutjazz.com/reviews/r0898_24.htm
Extractions: Recorded in 1994 when young lion Russell Gunn was a mere 23 years old, the Muse album Young Gunn is a quintet session with tenor saxophonist Sam Newsome, pianist John Hicks, bassist Peter Washington, and drummer Cecil Brooks III. This 32 Jazz reissue adds three tracks with a different quintet. Coming from a background that like that of many younger jazz artists, Russell Gunn learned the trumpet in elementary school, enjoyed and benefited from public school instrumental programs, and allowed his musical interests to range far and wide. That he attended the same high school as Miles Davis shows up in Gunn's pretty ballad tone. His experience includes avant-garde work with Oliver Lake, Wynton Marsalis' Blood On The Fields , and Branford Marsalis' Buckshot LeFonque . A more recent recording

Listen to the entire hour O'Riley Bio Browse selected audio excerpts Related links View the first page of Chris' "Black Star" manuscript View a photo gallery of the performance Since the day Chuck Berry first told Beethoven to roll over, classical music and rock have had an on-again, off-again relationship. The music and musicians can seem so far apart a gap demonstrated by such painful examples of temporary insanity as "Arthur Fiedler and the Boston Pops Play the Beatles," and "The Immortal Songs of Bob Dylan," as interpreted by the Gotham String Quartet.

Extractions: Here are the books I finished reading in 1998. My wife loves to read as well, but completely different books than what I read. In particular she likes essays, which I normally can't stand. But she thought I might enjoy this account of the world of Japanese wives living abroad, told in parallel via manga (comics) and essays. Indeed it is pretty interesting reading. (10/27/98) Finished sometime last month. It got more dull as it went on, unfortunately, but overall was worth reading. (12/22/98)
