SUMMARY:CYRUS CHESTNUT
DESCRIPTION:Ellington 125 | Duke Ellington Sacred Concert \nCyrus Chestnut is a jazz pianist\, composer and producer. In 2006\, Josh Tyrangiel\, music critic for Time\, wrote: “What makes Chestnut the best jazz pianist of his generation is a willingness to abandon notes and play space. \nIn the late 1980s and early 1990s\, Chestnut worked with Wynton Marsalis\, Terence Blanchard\, Donald Harrison\, and other bandleaders. He joined the band of jazz vocalist Betty Carter in the early 1990s and appeared on her 1992 album It’s Not About the Melody. That same year\, he recorded his first albums as a bandleader\, The Nutman Speaks and Nut. Chesnut has continued to work and record as a bandleader into the 21st century. \nIn 2006\, Telarc released Genuine Chestnut\, his first album for the label. On it he is accompanied by his regular trio of Michael Hawkins\, bass and Neal Smith\, drums. Additional artists on this session include Russell Malone\, guitar and Steven Kroon\, percussion. It includes jazz interpretations of some well-known pop numbers of the past half-century\, including “If”\, the early 1970s soft-rock ballad by Bread. “This song has been with me ever since the sixth grade\,” Chestnut recalled\, “I had to play it for my English teacher’s wedding. I’ve played it in many and various contexts. I actually played it in a Top 40 band when I was just out of school. A lot of time has passed\, but then recently I just started thinking about it again.” Chestnut’s own “Mason–Dixon Line” is one of the album’s high points\, a joyful bebop number.

SUMMARY:LEESA RICHARDS QUARTET & JEAN CAZE QUARTET
DESCRIPTION:As a part of Miami’s vibrant music scene\, singer/songwriter Leesa Richards grew up in music-rich Detroit and started showing an inclination towards the arts at a very early age. “My parents listened to a lot of jazz and I would record myself over and over singing along to Nancy Wilson records\,” she says. But when she saw Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater\, she knew she wanted to be a dancer. She graduated from University of North Carolina School of the Arts with a degree in dance and began her career on stage performing with a variety of dance companies. \nShe began honing her vocal chops with soul greats Gerald Austin and Peabo Bryson and contemporary soul maverick Dionne Farris. Her first world tour was as a dancer with legendary singer Whitney Houston after which she combined her love for music and dance to earn the role of Mary Magdalene in the national tour of the Broadway musical\, Jesus Christ Superstar\, earning critical acclaim which led to featured performances throughout the US and Europe. \nRenowned jazz trumpeter Jean Caze\, stands as a prominent figure in today’s jazz scene. His magnetic performances have graced stages alongside icons such as Herbie Hancock\, Aretha Franklin\, Mariah Carey\, Al Jarreau\, Roy Hargrove\, Arturo Sandoval\, and George Duke\, among others. Currently serving as the featured soloist for Michael Bublé worldwide\, Jean’s musical journey traces back to his roots in Queens\, NY\, where his passion ignited at the age of nine. By his senior year\, he showcased his talent on national television with “Chicago” on NBC. \nJean’s dedication to his craft earned him scholarships\, accolades\, and widespread recognition\, culminating in a Bachelor’s degree from Manhattan School of Music and a Master’s from Florida International University. Noteworthy achievements include securing second place in the 2007 Thelonius Monk International Jazz Trumpet Competition and claiming victory in both the 2004 National Trumpet Jazz Competition and the 2006 International Trumpet Guild Jazz Competition.

SUMMARY:JACKY TERRASSON
DESCRIPTION:Jacky Terrasson\, the most widely traveled of all jazz pianists\, is the “piano player of happiness\,” according to Telerama magazine in France. He is an exhilarating musician\, one of those who play their public straight to euphoria. Born in Berlin\, of an American mother and a French father\, he grew up in Paris\, France. He moved to America to study at Berklee College of Music\, and in 1993\, after winning the prestigious Thelonious Monk Award\, he began touring with Betty Carter. He then decided to move to New York\, where he still lives today. \nOne year later\, Jacky was introduced in the New York Times Magazine as one of the 30 under 30 and signed with the Blue Note label. He made three initial trio recordings for Blue Note (Jacky Terrasson\, Reach\, and Alive). He then devoted himself to several collaborations: “Rendezvous”\, with Cassandra Wilson\, and “What it is”\, with Michael Brecker and Mino Cinelu. Beginning in 2001\, he recorded “A Paris” for Blue Note; a very personal interpretation of classics of French song “Smile\,” (winning him Best Jazz Album of the Year); and finally a solo album\, “Mirror.” \nThis Franco-American national has never stopped dazzling us\, either by his prestigious collaborations with greats such as Dee Dee Bridgewater and Dianne Reeves\, or with his minimalist and energetic music hammered out with drummer Leon Parker and bassist Ugonna Okegwo\, in a trio that was considered one of the best jazz trios of the 90s. And this intuition\, this instinct\, this openness\, leads him to the discovery of the great burgeoning talents of his many groups. \nTerrasson has been compared to Bud Powell for his carefully controlled velocity on the piano keys and to Ahmad Jamal for his sense of phrasing. Jacky also possesses a deep knowledge of the great French composers savants\, such as Ravel\, Fauré and Debussy. Through his fingers\, as he mingles and melts the colors and the inventions of the great pianists of yesterday and today\, Jacky creates his own style\, all in subtleties\, freshness\, facility and ease\, with the desire to rewrite and reinvent\, again\, every day and forever. \nIn 2019\, Jacky released “53\,” a trio album (his favorite format)\, on Blue Note.

SUMMARY:SUBA TRIO
DESCRIPTION:Omar Sosa ~ Piano | Seckou Keita ~ Kora | Gustavo Ovalles ~ Percussion \nSeven-time Grammy-nominated pianist Omar Sosa joins kora maestro Seckou Keita and percussionist Gustavo Ovalles for an all-star collaboration.\n\nThe Atlantic Ocean separates Senegal and Cuba\, the respective birthplaces of kora maestro Seckou Keita and piano virtuoso Omar Sosa\, a distance diminished by their shared ancestral connection to Africa. In the summer of 2012\, Omar and Seckou were invited to perform together in London by their mutual friend\, the drummer Marque Gilmore. “Seckou arrived just before the gig\, took out his kora and started playing\,” Omar remembers\, “and I clicked with him like we had been playing together all our lives.”\n\n\nSeckou loved Omar for his “high level of musical spirituality.” Omar saw in Seckou a rare ability to blend\, collaborate\, but never lose his identity. Both men started their careers as drummers\, so the melodies grooved. For this collaboration they’re joined by master percussionist Gustavo Ovalles\, after their critically acclaimed Tiny Desk performance together.

SUMMARY:EUGENIE JONES
DESCRIPTION:Eugenie Jones was not supposed to be a jazz singer. She graduated with an MBA in marketing\, and her post-graduate career took her deep within the nonprofit sector as a marketing communications executive. Her mother\, a soprano gospel singer\, was the singer of the family\, and when cancer claimed her life\, Jones managed her grief by setting out to see if she could carry forward that part of her Mom’s life. \nJones puts her Marketing MBA and business savvy to work producing music legacy events that commemorate Seattle’s African American musical history\, including the Jackson Street Jazz Walk and\, in partnership with legendary Crusaders drummer Stix Hooper\, the Celebrating Ernestine Anderson Tribute series. These events go beyond entertainment by raising funds for Seattle nonprofits such as the Rotary Boys & Girls Club\, the Central Area Senior Center\, and the Northwest Harvest Food Bank. Jones’s community efforts were recognized in 2023 when she received the Jazz Hero Award from the Jazz Journalists Association. \nEugenie Jones\, vocals\nPeter Adams\, piano\nBob Antolin\, guitar and sax\nJonathan Green\, bass\nRonnie Bishop\, drums

SUMMARY:VIJAY IYER
DESCRIPTION:Composer-pianist Vijay Iyer has carved out a unique path as an influential\, shape-shifting presence in 21st-century music. His deeply interactive\, powerfully expressive musical language is indebted to the composer-pianist lineage from Duke Ellington and Thelonious Monk to Alice Coltrane and Geri Allen\, the creative music movement of the 60s and 70s\, and rhythmic traditions of South Asia and West Africa. As MinnPost recently observed\, “twining composition and improvisation is rightfully his most celebrated métier.” He has released twenty-six widely praised albums; received three Grammy nominations\, numerous national and international prizes\, and a MacArthur Fellowship; composed for orchestras\, soloists\, and chamber ensembles; and collaborated with poets\, filmmakers\, choreographers\, and music-makers from across the planet. \nIyer’s artistry finds perhaps its purest expression in his most celebrated group\, the Vijay Iyer Trio\, praised by NPR as “truly astonishing” and by The New York Times as “one of the best bands in jazz.” Iyer’s ever-evolving trio conception\, developed over the last 30 years\, finds inspiration in the trio music of Ahmad Jamal\, the Ellington/Mingus/Roach summit Money Jungle\, Andrew Hill’s Smokestack\, McCoy Tyner’s 1970s ensembles\, the rhythm-section alchemies of James Brown\, Fela Kuti\, and the Meters\, South Asian rhythmic forms\, and the expressive nuance of chamber music. The results\, over the span of his trio’s five pivotal recordings and hundreds of performances\, have not only defied the old categories\, but inaugurated entirely new ones. \nThe Trio: Piano: Vijay Iyer | Bass: Harish Raghavan | Drums: Jeremy Dutton

SUMMARY:TYRONE JACKSON
DESCRIPTION:The name Tyrone Jackson is the quintessential jazz piano player. His boundless creativity coupled with harmonic mastery\, utilizes the piano as a blank canvas.  Jackson is nationally recognized and has traveled the world as a solo artist and sideman. \nAs a composer\, Jackson has composed original music for Pulitizer Prize winning author Natasha Tretheway’s book of poems “Native Guard” turned theatrical play\, Pearl Clege’s play\, “Tell Me My Dream”\, “Ethel” and this year’s Alliance Theater production of “Nick’s Flamingo Grill.” Jackson has recorded 4 Albums—“Dedicated”\, “Another Voyage”\, “Melody In Nede”\, and new release “From The Mind Of.” \nLavahi is a scholar-artist on a mission to better society from the inside out. Through her music\, scholarship\, and performance\, LAVAHI is building a platform to nourish the heart and mind\, empathize our human experiences\, and vibe together. As a daughter of jazz\, the culture heavily informs her ideology and influences her sound. Acrobatic scatting\, compelling chords\, and the art of improvisation evoke that classic traditional aesthetic and set her contemporary sound apart from the norm of mainstream neo-soul\, hip hop\, and R&B. And with her satisfying blend of analog and digital sounds\, LAVAHI shows that the lineage of Black sound is not linear but ever folding and stretching.
