He paced the floor, full of contained energy Marsalis is also musical director of the orchestra, which has premiered six original commissions this year Thursday's 90-minute penthouse concert features Black's best-known piece, "Magnolia Triangle," with its intricate 5/4 beat A lengthy profile in "The Atlantic Monthly" claimed that "Marsalis and his adherents are said to have codified the music in a stifling orthodoxy and inhibited the revolutionary impulses that have always advanced jazz on saxophone, Reginald Veal on bass and Herlin Riley on drums Besides the Marsalis duo, the penthouse band includes Victor Goines on tenor saxophone and clarinet, Walter Blanding Jr "Black's music was unique in its meter and time signature," Ellis said, "and his melodies complement the meter he writes in The complicated rhythm moves along briskly with what he calls a "funky" beat This day he is the picture of sartorial elegance, trim in a three-button dark blue pinstripe suit, a blue shirt with French cuffs and a tie with stripes matching the shirt " It airs Thursday as part of the PBS "Live at Lincoln Center" series " said Wynton Beyond his official duties, Marsalis, no longer under contract with Columbia, said he's writing music for a new recording for Blue Note with a quartet that will include considerable jazz improvisation When he set aside his academic robes, he wore a herringbone linen suit that matched his gray hair "It will be the first ever concert space designed for the sound and feeling of jazz," he said " Almost as an afterthought, he offers, "And no one knows the direction jazz will take "I've sold 9 million records, and I've never compromised my music " Retired from teaching at the University of New Orleans in 2001, he remains an active performer in the Crescent City " Wynton stepped to a piano along one wall and, still standing, played a few bars Ed Bradley, the CBS news correspondent, serves as master of ceremonies He narrates the orchestra's "Jazz for Young People" educational curriculum, derived from its series of concerts for young people Marsalis Family to Perform in PBS Series May 28, 11:41 PM EST Few musical families have been in the spotlight as often as the one headed by Ellis Marsalis Jr So far in 2003, it has produced over 30 concerts in the New York area, and its Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra toured to over 15 cities in seven countries The patriarch and his four jazz musician sons â€â€? trumpeter Wynton, saxophonist Branford, trombonist Delfeayo and drummer Jason â€â€? just finished a tour of sold-out concerts this spring "Funk just means that it feels good in a down-home sense like good batter on some fried chicken In 1997, he became the first jazz composer to win the Pulitzer prize, and was named artistic director of Jazz at Lincoln Center Now, Ellis and Wynton, America's most prominent jazz spokesman, will perform together again in a concert billed as "Marsalis at the Penthouse He came to New York at 17, studied classical trumpet at Juilliard for about a year and a half before drummer Art Blakey asked him to join his Jazz Messengers Singers Bobby McFerrin and Dianne Reeves will join the quartet on the CD for one song each, he said Some critics have suggested that Wynton, in his position of leadership, has failed to take the necessary risks that would move jazz from his own blues-swing-bebop aesthetic to a more experimental level " "Black's music is difficult to play," he added, "but it sounds natural It opens in the fall of 2004 " His brother Branford also was one of the documentary's voices His sound is expressive from a harmonic standpoint, a nice mix of sonorities By the mid-1980s Columbia Records had signed him to a contract to make both classical and jazz recordings, which produced Grammys in both categories The organization does a lot to promote jazz "James was kind of a homespun musician The direction he took was based on New Orleans culture "He didn't pursue high-end European music studies with a competent teacher After his father left to make a flight back to New Orleans, Wynton had more to say " He took exception to a reference in the article to "a midlife thickening" of his body "Do I look fat?" he asked " Marsalis doesn't care for "critics who tell lies about me " The Marsalis way with words and the family's deep feelings for the history of jazz were evident in 2000 when Wynton provided free-form commentary throughout Ken Burns's PBS series, "Jazz Marsalis is especially excited about the new Rose Hall in the AOL Time Warner building under construction at Columbus Circle, just five blocks downtown from Lincoln Center The performance, which celebrates the music of the late New Orleans drummer James Black (1940-1988), originates in a cabaret setting at the Kaplan Penthouse above Lincoln Center "People the world over love jazz," says the 41-year-old trumpeter, who has played for money since age 12 "Now that's James Black Marsalis says he uses his position to encourage young musicians On May 23, Ellis, 68, an accomplished pianist and educator, received an honorary Doctor of Music degree from the Juilliard School " said Wynton " After the ceremony, Ellis and Wynton talked about the music of Black, a composer whose works are little known outside New Orleans " The elder Marsalis played in New Orleans bands with Black sporadically from about 1962 and recorded four of Black's tunes on a 1963 album called "Monkey Puzzle Clean shaven, he retains a boyish look that belies his age The Marsalis men speak with a soft southern accent distinctive to their origins in New Orleans, the birthplace of jazz He gave up his studies for a professional career that has seldom slowed " They called on the European Union to either block the merger or demand "severe and broad remedies" to curb potential abuses of market power "It's much more dangerous to allow market concentration in a weak market, because smaller companies will find it even harder to survive," said Osman Eralp, economic adviser to Impala, which represents some 2,000 independent music companies Some Indie Labels Oppose Sony-BMG Merger Jun 10, 10:33 AM EST A group of independent music labels Thursday blasted Sony and Bertelsmann's plan to create the world's second-largest music company and urged European antitrust enforcers to take "severe" measures to protect diversity at a critical time for music sales "That could be an advantage for the independent sector and make the market more competitive " Lambot disputed contentions from Haentjes and others that a Sony BMG giant would open up opportunities for smaller companies to move into neglected local markets Some hinted at extending French- and German-style price controls on books to CDs to help close the gap with the current five "majors," which control 80 percent of the market "The spending of teenagers on mobile phones is a real problem," complained Michel Lambot, head of Impala and co-chairman of Brussels-based PIAS, whose artists include the Scottish rockers Mogwai and Belgian composer Wim Mertens Yet at a news conference after presenting their case to EU antitrust chief Mario Monti, the music executives suggested that even torpedoing the deal might not be enough to keep their businesses afloat in the face increased competition from various sides With legal online distribution services beginning to appear in Europe, Impala and the heads of some of Europe's top independent labels warned they were in danger of being "marginalized further" by the majors "manipulating access to music at retail, media and on the Internet "Artists that only sell midsize numbers will probably become available for companies like us," said Haentjes, whose artists range from Toni Braxton to The Rasmus, an up-and-coming Finnish band "Maybe we are small in economic terms but we are very important in civilization terms," said Patrick Zelnik, whose French label Naive includes Carla Bruni and Joe Jackson In an interview, Michael Haentjes of Germany's Edel Music noted Sony Music and Bertelsmann's BMG are expected to drop some less-popular artists as they strive to achieve the hoped-for $300 million in annual savings Yet other indies were not at the news conference because they favor the merger, reflecting differing market assessments that will be fought over at closed-door hearings Monday and Tuesday â€â€? five weeks before the European Commission's deadline to rule on the deal "It doesn't mean we have more breathing space because we won't have the shelf space," Lambot said, adding that the discounts the majors give to supermarkets make it harder for smaller outlets â€â€? where indies usually do better â€â€? to stay in business |
