Rodney Green Interviewed

Noah Becker interviews Rodney Green, a drummer who deserves a lot more attention than he’s gotten so far. I remember him first from Greg Osby’s band in the late ‘90s (the which featured Jason Moran on organ as well as piano). He later worked with Charlie Haden and Mulgrew Miller, among others.

Charlie Parker at 100: the Sound and the Myth

This speculative essay by J. D. Considine traces the personal and musical history of Charlie Parker and his various lifestyle and musical influences on future generations. The conclusion, a quote from Vincent Herring, says it all: “The music continues to evolve, and regardless of where it goes, Charlie Parker will always be one of the cornerstones of the music.”

Saxophone Greats Remember John Coltrane

On the 50th Anniversary of John Coltrane’s death, Ron Hart, who was born too late to every see the master live, has written a beautiful essay on the man and his music for the Observer. There are also recollections and sentiments from Chris Potter, Greg Osby, Joe Lovano, Dave Liebman and others. But don’t skip the essay to get to the musicians’ comments.

Im Konzert gewesen. Ausnahmsweise mal Leute, die nicht sowieso immer kommen: Der Schweizer Schlagzeuger Florian Arbenz hat gerade ein ausladendes Projekt mit Conversations laufen, in #9 konversiert er mit Greg Osby am Saxophon und Arno Krijger an der archaischen Hammondorgel, auf deren Pedalen er auch noch schön den Bass beisteuert. Da hat er die Hände frei. Das ist aufregend, da hätten ruhig ein paar mehr Leute kommen dürfen.
