With billows and blasts from choirs and orchesters
Buskers and talkers
Big bands and squawkers,
the Stork Club has retained its qualities of decaying elegance and dwindling significance since the late 1950s.

⦿Sun in ♉︎Taurus, Year of Metal 🐕Dog
' Mary Lou Williams (born Mary Elfrieda Scruggs; May 8, 1910 – May 28, 1981) was an American jazz pianist, arranger, and composer. She wrote hundreds of compositions and arrangements and recorded more than one hundred records (in 78, 45, and LP versions). Williams wrote and arranged for Duke Ellington and Benny Goodman, and she was friend, mentor, and teacher to Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, Tadd Dameron, Bud Powell, and Dizzy Gillespie. '

⦿Sun in ♉︎Taurus, Year of Wood 🐓Rooster
' Keith Jarrett (born May 8, 1945) is an American jazz and classical music pianist and composer. Jarrett started his career with Art Blakey, moving on to play with Charles Lloyd and Miles Davis. Since the early 1970s he has also been a group leader and a solo performer in jazz, jazz fusion, and classical music. His improvisations draw from the traditions of jazz and other genres, especially Western classical music, gospel, blues, and ethnic folk music.
In 2003, Jarrett received the Polar Music Prize, the first recipient of both the contemporary and classical musician prizes, and in 2004 he received the Léonie Sonning Music Prize. His album, The Köln Concert, released in 1975, became the best-selling piano recording in history.[citation needed] In 2008, he was inducted into the Down Beat Jazz Hall of Fame in the magazine's 73rd Annual Readers' Poll.
Jarrett has been unable to perform since suffering a stroke in February 2018. A second stroke, in May 2018, left him partially paralyzed and unable to play with his left hand. '

Hello Stork and streams, listening, enjoying but busy day here so not on the screen much.

As others have written, Mary Lou Williams was a significant composer and arranger for bands ranging from Andy Kirks Clouds of Joy to Tommy Dorsey and Benny Goodman. Her role as mentor to many early be boppers was another significant contribution to music.

Funny little story in a way about Keith Jarrett. I follow him on Instagram and at one point got a message from him, just saying Hi. I let it sit there for weeks, not sure it was him owing to, well, the fraud and whatnot of social media. Eventually, I wrote back, inquiring about his health. Said he was doing fine.

We're in Münster. way over on the West side, in the north. The guy follows a pattern: the Dept of Health clears the garbage that he's been hording in his yard, and he runs off and climbs a crane. 3 times now, at least. Bizarro. Reminds me of the Monty Python routine where someone says a certain word, and he immediately puts a bag over his head.

My Jarrett story before I go... I went to see him once, many years back, Village Vanguard. Many noisy tourists that night. He sat down at the piano, played a few notes, stopped (waiting for silence, but didn't say anything). Started again after a bit, people still talking, stopped again. Say there, got a bit quieter, started playing again. People kept talking-the 3rd time he stood up, let the piano, show over. I understood, but was so pissed off I never went to see him after that (my loss, of course).

Well, Concert vs. Dinner Club Diners is a cornerstone problem for Jazz Artists. It's not like it's something out of the blue, but by the same token just gets to be a bigger thorn in the side all the time for people I suppose ...kind of admire an Artist who knows what they don't need ...but then I didn't pay to see him...

if it's a dinner club the performer knows what he/she's getting into. appropriate to hope for a quiet crowd, but not realistic to expect it, let alone demand it.

WR - right on - It must be said - Jarrett is a wonderful group leader and improviser and his teaming up with so many great musicians is cuz they know that - Redman, Haden, DeJohnette, the lost is endless.

Jarrett's Shostakovich is among the finest on record. His Handel suites album is gorgeous, too.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:12pm
coelacanth∅:

yes this Shostakovich piece is excellent
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:13pm
coelacanth∅:

Stork is it Jarrett doing all the arranging? or on some but not on all these tracks?
  2:15pm
Dean:

I think Shostakovich wrote the 48 for Tatiana Nikolaeva, who has at least two traversals on record.

@David and coel: Same for me, in 2004. They called me out before the show when they spotted my WFMU T-shirt, so I got to chat with them a bit

that's cool fred. i was likely wearing an fmu shirt as well but i guess i don't rate!
Avatar 2:22pm
Stork:

coel: Jarrett admits that he doesn't have to arrange or write as much because he plays with guys like DeJohnette and Haden who can just make anything work - they're kind of arranging as they're writing, as they're playing. Easy for them.
