Extractions: bookings@jacquelineschwab.com As a shy Pittsburgh teenager seeking alternatives to media entertainment and the dreaded high school dances, Jacqueline fell in love with the flirtatious and flowing figures, beautiful music and friendly sociability of English country dancing. She found her way to Boston's thriving traditional dance scene and has been dancing, leading and playing for dancers ever since. She co-founded the quartet Bare Necessities in 1982 with Peter Barnes (flute and whistle), Earl Gaddis (fiddle) and Mary Lea (fiddle).

With many recordings, Bare Necessities are in demand at festivals throughout North America and England. Jacqueline also plays for New England contra, Scottish country, couple dancing, vintage and tango. She has also collaborated with fiddlers Andrea Hoag, Daron Douglas, Dave Langford and others.

Extractions: Upon hearing and seeing Lisa Spector perform it is quite obvious that she has a genuine love for music and shines on stage. On a recent concert tour, one critic wrote: "The audience, seemingly unable to contain its delight and appreciation of the stellar performance by Spector, burst into applause and then gave her a standing ovation before the piece was finished. In theatrical language - she stopped the show." Born in Syracuse, New York, Spector holds prestigious music degrees from Juilliard (B.M.) and the University of Southern California (M.M.). Prominent teachers who have taught and inspired Lisa to reach great heights include: John Perry, Lilian Kallir, and Earl Wild.

In addition to her active performing career, Ms. Spector currently owns a music school in Half Moon Bay, California.

Most of the volumes are appearing on Jazz Oracle , but Frog's contribution to the series is Frog DGF 23 which present the group's records that appeared on the Columbia subsidiary label, Harmony. From that release, we heard "Everybody's Doin' the Charleston Now," played in a nifty arrangement that gets quite hot at the finish. With Joe Sullivan at the piano with the Jimmie Grier Orchestra, Bing Crosby sang "I Guess It Had To Be That Way." It's included in Volume 13 of the complete Bing appearing on the Jonzo label; this is JZCD-13 and Sullivan's passages in the middle of the record are gorgeous. The Renovation label has issued what promises to be a series of some of the best titles by the Richard Himber orchestras. Volume 1 is Renovation 7002, and we heard "Sophisticated Lady" from September 1933 when Richard Himber was still Dick Himber and his Essex House Orchestra. Renovation is available from

Earl Wild: 20th & 21st Century Piano Sonatas Boston Globe September 1, 2000 To celebrate his 85th birthday, everyoungpianist earl wild recorded this monumental CD of craggy 20th century works. http://www.ivoryclassics.com/earwil2021ce.html
Extractions: Earl Wild, whose legendary career has spanned over 70 years, performs in this brand new recording four 20th and 21st century piano sonatas. Mr. Wild states: "I had a personal friendship with all four composers on this disc, although one of the relationships has been a little more intimate. I have performed the Hindemith and Stravinsky sonatas in public many times since the 1940s. The Barber Sonata however is a first performance for me. I have the greatest admiration for this wonderful work. My own Sonata was completed in April of this year. A stylistically eclectic work, it incorporates Civil War tunes, echoes of popular music of the 1920s and, in the finale (entitled "Toccata a la Ricky Martin"), there is a distinctive Latin American flavor!" "The 20th-century sonatas are by Barber, Hindemith (the Third Sonata), and Stravinsky; Wild composed the 21st century sonata himself. As you might expect, Wild's 20-minute virtuoso work is skillfully and idiomatically written for the keyboard, and highly entertaining. The first movement is energetic with a bluesy interlude; the second movement refers to the popular music of Wild's youth. The finale, a brilliant Toccata, begins to dance in a Latin rhythm, so Wild presents it as an homage to Ricky Martin, whose ease and charm captivated Wild, who is no slouch at ease and charm himself. Wild's performance of the Wild Sonata is brilliant and of course authoritative; the pianist is no less effective in the other sonatas."

Extractions: This all started with a "Consumer Guide" I wrote for the Village Voice, New York's big alternative weekly. I listened to 17 recordings of this suddenly popular concerto, and wrote 17 quick paragraphs, with a grade attached to each one. Poor David Helfgott got an F; Vladimir Horowitz got an A, for his version with Fritz Reiner conducting. (Though a later Horowitz release, a live performance with Eugene Ormandy, only got C+.) You can read this adventure, right here on this site. Much later and by a happy coincidence I was asked to write about the concerto once again, this time for the Los Angeles Times. In fact, I was asked to defend it against critical attacks, which I was happy to do. The more I listened to it, for my Voice consumer guide, the more I loved it. And I enlisted two very articulate pianists to help me defend it Alexander Toradze, and Byron Janis.

HAHN: Le Rossignol Eperdu It is not entirely surprising that a great pianist like earl Wildshould turn his attention to The Bewildered Nightingale. Only http://www.ifrance.com/pianistes/hahn.htm
Extractions: HAHN: Le Rossignol Eperdu Le bal de Béatrice and his operetta Ciboulette, sung by the very popular Yvonne Printemps. These works achieved mass appeal by responding to the popular taste of the time, but songs like and Si mes vers avaient des ailes soar with a timeless beauty that assures them a place at the pinnacle of vocal music. Clarity, distinction, articulation, lightness, spiritual elegance that leaves no room for vulgar sentimentality, all these qualities of his songs can be found in the 53 poems for piano that make up Le rossignol éperdu [The Bewildered Nightingale]. Pièces de clavecin en concert, Pièces Pittoresques Fêtes Lointaines but its spirit magnifies the quintessence of French sensibility, carefully traced throughout the four suites that compose the work. A musical love letter or intimate little encyclopedia filled with allusions and epigraphs, this work would best be read with score in hand (Heugel publisher): devotees of literature will be delighted to learn that Marcel Proust, Hahn’s alter ego, wrote about his friend, "All that I have accomplished is because of Reynaldo." Just as in Debussy’s Preludes, these epigraphs are also metaphors, hypallages and paradigms that can be interpreted ad libitum.
