Par GARDNER JEFF. Nous savons que Debussy, quand on lui demandait quel système harmonique il suivait pour créer ses oeuvres, répondait : 'Mon bon plaisir'. Les pièces de ce recueil sont basées sur une libre variation de motifs. Si certaines des techniques utilisées - renversement, rétrogradation, renversement rétrograde - sont associées à la musique sérielle ou dodécaphonique, ces pièces ne sont absolument pas sérielles dans un sens strict. Elles ne sont pas non plus tonales ou atonales. J'ai cherché un langage qui naît de la liberté d'expression, plutôt que de la contrainte de règles et de paramètres d'écriture. Certaines pièces sont un écho rythmique au jazz ou au blues, d'autres une couleur de 20e siècle contemporain / classique (mais qu'est-ce que le contemporain ? Quelle année ? Pour qui ?). Tempo, dynamique, articulation sont laissés à la libre appréciation de l'interprète. J'espère que ces jeux, ces voyages musicaux vous conduiront vers des terres inconnues. Jeff Gardner Saquarema, Rio de Janeiro Novembre 2009 Je prends un très grand plaisir à jouer avec ces tournures mélodiques en forme d'études ! La grande liberté 'd'habillage' qu'elles suscitent : dynamique et traitement du son, articulation et phrasé, ornementation... construit autant la maîtrise instrumentale que la créativité musicale. A l'instar des Suites ou Partite de J.S. Bach, des Fantaisies de Telemann ou des improvisations inspirées de Steve Lacy, elles peuvent donner des ailes à l'apprenti improvisateur qui les fera 'tourner' dans ses doigts et dans sa mémoire. La fantaisie ainsi éveillée révèlera alors à chacun ses propres créations mélodiques ! Claude Delangle Natif de New York, Jeff Gardner a étudié le piano classique avec Ruth Shontal et Ivan Tcherepnin, le piano jazz avec Hall Overton, Jaki Byard, John Lewis, Don Friedman, et Charles Banacos, et l'harmonie avec Nadia Boulanger. II enchaîne tournées et festivals avec des artistes tels que Kenny Wheeler, Nelson Veras, Norma Winstone, Steve Lacy, Freddie Hubbard, Paulo Moura, Eddie Harris, Gary Peacock, Bob Sheppard, Toninho Horta, Ndugu Chancler, Ran McClure, Lars Daniellson, André Ceccarelli, Hein van de Geyn, Alfredo Rodriguez, Marcia Maria, Karim Ziad, Flavio Boltro, Charlie Mariano, et le quatuor de pianos avec Jaki Byard, Martial Solal, et Paul Bley. Jeff a un total de seize CD's en tant que leader. Citons Continuum, avec Eddie Gomez et Bill Hart, Noches Habaneras, enregistré à La Havane avec Miguel 'Anga' Diaz, Julio Barreto, Felipe Cabrera, Orlando 'Maraca' Valle, et Diego Valdes, The Music of Chance, inspiré par les écrits de Paul Auster avec comme invités Rick Margitza et Ingrid Jensen, Alchemy, en duo avec Gary Peacock, Street Angels, Sky Dance avec Gilberto Gil, et Abraços avec Carlos Balla et Alberto Continentino (Terramar), tous les trois enregistrés à Rio. Ses deux CDs plus récents, Breath et Lovelight (Terramar), sont en trio avec Drew Gress et Anthony Pinciotti. Jeff Gardner anime de nombreuses masterclasses un peu partout dans le monde.

Jazz Play-Along Vol.116. 2 CDs and book. What do you play when you have one chord for 8 or 16 bars? The Modal Jazz era presented new challenges for improvisers, spawning a fruitful period rich in new ideas, concepts, and harmonic exploration. This play-a-long includes several 'Standard' forms and important practice tracks; many of which are 'period accurate' and others which are stylistically more contemporary. These practice tracks are designed to foster understanding, facility and familiarity. Many of the first tracks are slow, making them perfect for beginners. Intermediate and advanced players will enjoy the opportunity to doubletime and experiment with an endless array of chord/scalesubstitutions over the otherwise simple tracks. / Niveau : Débutant / Méthode en anglais / Méthode / Tout Instrument

Par JONES STEPHEN. This is not just another book of Irish session tunes. It represents the relatively unknown repertoire of a single Irish traditional musician, Packie Manus Byrne of Donegal. There has been considerable interest in the music of Donegal over the past 10 years or so, especially with the rise of groups such as Altan. Packie Manus Byrne is a familiar name to traditional-music lovers in Ireland and the UK, where he enjoyed a successful career as a folk performer for more than 20 years. Almost all these tunes were being played in Packie's home area between 1925 and 1935 - the collection is thus something of a 'time capsule' with a unity of origin and style that sets it apart from other collections. The 85 genuine old traditional tunes are being made public for the first time. This unique collection, with all the background information and stories, gives the reader a real sense of the community out of which the music came and the characters who played it. Suitable for fiddle, tin whistle, flute and other traditional instruments. The CD includes 33 of the tunes performed by Jean Duval, Stephen Jones, Johanne St. Laurent, Lynda Dowker, and Reinhard Görner on a variety of instruments. / Niveau : Débutant à Intermédiaire / Celtic/Irish - Songbooks / Recueil / Tout Instrument
