Jazz for aficionados Fantastic opera by Bizet. I believe you refer to the scene in Act 2 when Carmen sings and dances for Jose who has left his military post to be with Carmen. The bugle is calling him back. While it is possible to simulate the effect of getting close... | |

Jazz for aficionados Feels kind of silly to go from McCoy to Rudy Wiedoeft, even if it is the legendary Wiedoeft. Pryso mentions his dad’s C melody saxophone. Now obsolete (Dr. Cohen has three) it is an unusual sounding saxophone due to a range that sits smack between... | |

Jazz for aficionados **** I find a connection between some Middle Eastern instrumentation/melodies and jazz. ****Without a doubt, pryso; great observation. The subject of one the great early “bruhaha’s” (to quote our OP) here. The connection is undeniable and well doc... | |
Jazz for aficionados That’s my good friend Dr. Paul Cohen. I posted that clip a while back in (I think) another thread (maybe here?). During the ‘20s there was literally a “saxophone craze” in this country with a huge variety of different saxophones manufactured for a... | |
Art Blakey experts please ... ? ssenturk, very intriguing query. Wayne Shorter is perhaps my favorite Jazz musician, bar none. You may find this of interest:https://books.google.com/books?id=a3gurEiKNPoC&pg=PA82&lpg=PA82&dq=wayne+shorter+joelle&... | |
Your experience with great Jazz guitar CD/SACD discs. Fantastic suggestions so far, but considering that you know Johnny Smith and Ed Bickert I suspect that most of them are not new to you. Here are some lesser known (remembered) players that you might enjoy. I believe all are available as CD reissu... |
