JAZZ по-русскиKen Peplowski • At Mezzrow © 2024 Cellar Live #jazzЗаписанный в клубе Нью-Йорка Mezzerow живой альбом польского кларнетиста и саксофониста Ken Peplowski звучит приятно душевно и с хорошим чувством свинга. Мне понравилось именно звучание его инструментов и хороший подбор композиций.
Большинство стандартов сыграны но новому, с прекрасным изменением не только общих картин, но и ритмов. Например The Shadow Of Your Smile Джонни Мэндела исполняется медленнее, чем обычно и это хорошо демонстрирует эмоциональную глубину пьесы.
Кен встречается на семидесяти альбомах в качестве солиста и на около четырехсот записях в качестве сайдмена, несколько из которых есть на моем канале. Этот альбом нечто выдающееся и на нем представлены шикарные мелодии в исполнении замечательных музыкантов: пианист Ted Rosenthal, басист Martin Wind и барабанщик Willie Jones III.
С первого публичного выступления я понял, что хочу зарабатывать на жизнь музыкой, - сказал лидер и пояснил, что свой первый профессиональный концерт он сыграл, когда еще учился в начальной школе.
Переехав в Нью-Йорк в 1980 году он начал играть в самых разных местах, от традиционного до авангардного джаза. В 1984 году Бенни Гудман собрал новую группу и нанял Кена на тенор-саксофоне. Он подписал контракт с Concord Records и выпустил с ними около двадцати альбомов. Это его кларнет вы слышите в саундтреках Вуди Аллена. Он был хедлайнером в Лас-Вегасе и Hollywood Bowl. Он играл на джазовом фестивале в Ньюпорте и на всех крупных европейских фестивалях. Он сотрудничал с Mel Torme, Leon Redbone, Madonna, Dave Frishberg, Tom Harrell, Bill Charles, Marianne Faithful и многими другими.

JAZZ по-русскиMy World • Diego Figueiredo ©️ 2023 Arbors Records #latinjazzMy World - Мой мир - альбом бразильского гитариста Diego Figueiredo раскрывает его понимание разных стилей, через игру на нейлоновой гитаре и сочинение осознанных произведений про свою жизнь. Виртуозная игра завораживает и показывает его необычные таланты играть мелодии, аккорды, гармонии, басовые партии и соло так, что бы они ласкали слух.
Мне повезло с ним познакомится, когда вышел сборник хитов на альбоме Compilation©️2020, затем мне понравилась его запись Follow the Sighs©️2022. Между ними былa еще одна работа Antarctica©️2021, а общее количество альбомов скоро перевалит за три десятка.
Он родился в 1980 году и с 15 лет покорил сцены более 60 стран мира, выступая как сольный артист, так и в составах разных коллективов. На этой пластинке собраны отличные музыканты в составе основного квартета и два гостя. Все композиции написаны лидером и это заслуживает особого внимания.
Бразилия постоянно взращивает новых звезд, которые удивляют публику своей техникой, радостью жизни и новыми мелодиями.
©️ 2023 Arbors Records
Diego Figueiredo - guitar
Duduka Da Fonseca - drums
Helio Alves - piano

Ken Peplowski - clarinet 2,11

Это один из величайших гитаристов, которых я видел за всю свою жизнь. Мир должен слушать его музыку.

Alejandro Arenas bass
Mark Feinman drums
🎶Выросшие в Мексике, Колумбии и Флориде соответственно, встретились в Университете Южной Флориды в 2006 году. Вскоре они стали лучшими друзьями, а их музыкальный опыт от панка до хэви-метал, и от сальсы до классики, был использован, когда они углублялись в изучение и создание джазовых импровизаций.
🎶Их энергия и культурные корни слились в трио La Lucha благодаря латинским ритмам, заурядным аранжировкам поп-мелодий 80-90х и умением создавать собственные, легко запоминающиеся произведения.
🎶Пятый альбом Everybody Wants to Rule the World включает 5 каверов, по 3 трека написали барабанщик и басист, один пианист и один совместный Blues for Houston Person. Он посвящен джазовому ветерану, который на ряду с другими артистами, любезно принял приглашение дополнить трио:
Ken Peplowski clarinet 1,7,8,13, synth 2,12
Diego Figueiredo guitar 1,13
Chuck Redd vibraphone 2,3,13
Houston Person tenor sax 4
Melissa Aldana tenor sax 5,7,9
