Antonín Dvořák THE LATE SYMPHONIES - LEGENDS London Symphony Orchestra -- Witold Rowicki Philips 1969 / 1997 Notes: "Arriving in New York in 1892, Dvořák cast himself with enthusiasm into the music of a country he had long admired. He was delighted by the songs of Stephen Foster, by Afro-American spirituals and folk music. "It is this spirit which I have tried to reproduce in my new symphony," he later wrote. He wrote his Ninth Symphony as music sent home "from the New World," adding this phrase as the work's title shortly before its first performance in New York in 1893."

Horace Silver HORACE SILVER AND THE JAZZ MESSENGERS Blue Note 1954-55 / 1987 Notes : It was decided that this date would present Horace as a combo leader for the first time. He responded by getting Kenny Dorham and Art Blakey to join himself and two of the members of his Minton's quartet, Hank Mobley and Doug Watkins. Thus The Messengers were born, or reborn. Actually the name had been used before by Art Blakey when he led a 17 piece band on occasional gigs, and a septet on Blue Note, both in the late Forties.

Ray Bryant SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE Hyena Records 2003 Notes : "Ray's doin' just fine. He works where he wants, when he wants and for good bread. And the honors have even started to come in. He's one of a handful of musicians who are part of The Smithsonian's Living Legends Oral History Archive. And recently he was elected to the Hall Of Fame at The Institute For Jazz Studies at Rutgers University. So few of the guys from the golden age made it to their golden years in good shape. Ray has his cake, and he's eatin' it. Sometimes the good guys actually do win." The first Jazz album I ever purchased was Bryant's Slow Freight.

Brooklyn, fourth largest city in America had a symphony orchestra from the mid 1800’s (Philharmonic Society of Brooklyn, later the Brooklyn Philharmonic) until 2010. The Brooklyn Phil was a very fine orchestra known for its innovative programming. Some would argue that it was its emphasis on new works resulting in smaller and smaller audiences that led to its demise. Some interesting factoids about Brooklyn: Brooklyn is home to over 700 cultural arts institutions and a hotbed of modern Jazz. Speaking of the Brooklyn Dodgers: the name came about because of its once maze of street cars, pedestrians had to constantly “dodge” the vehicles. Brooklyn has two “Leaving Brooklyn” highway signs. One reads “Leaving Brooklyn, Oy Vey!”, and my favorite, “Leaving Brooklyn, Fuhgeddaboudit!” And, of course, its the birthplace of the hotdog 😊
