Listen To Real Audio Joe Henderson, "Lotus Blossom" at a glance... Hometown: Lima, OH First Recordings: Sidemen: Wynton Marsalis -trumpet Stephen Scott -piano Christian McBride -bass Gregory Hutchinson -drums Notes: Tenor Joe Henderson was one of the leaders of post bop's second generation, young enough to have been influenced by players like John Coltrane and Sonny Rollins but old enough to make a vital contribution to 1960s post bop. He began playing along side Kenny Dorham and Horace Silver , and he went on to bands with Freddie Hubbard and Herbie Hancock. His Blue Note record Inner Urge (1964) was the first highlight in a rewarding and lengthy career. In the 1990s, he's received his due, thanks in part to his signing with Verve, but mostly because his style has broadened and matured with each passing year. Today, he remains one of jazz's foremost improvisers, a wily veteran who continues to develop. Joe Henderson Lush Life - The Music of Billy Strayhorn Verve , Recorded Even in the contrived, packaging-oriented world of 1990s major-label jazz, a master work of lasting impact is produced now and then. Verve threw Henderson in the studio with a pack of young lions and asked him to play a collection of Billy Strayhorn songs. Henderson and crew emerged with a beautiful recording that showcased Henderson's versatile tenor, the passion of the younger players, and the emotional appeal of Strayhorn's compositions. Some of the songs are standards of the Ellington book while others are more obscure.

Lush Life : A Biography of Billy Strayhorn Home by David Hajdu See More Details North Point Press; ISBN: 0865475121 ; Dimensions (in inches): 0.89 x 9.20 x 6.11 Other Editions: Hardcover Reviews Amazon.com The myth has always been that Billy Strayhorn and Duke Ellington shared an identical approach to music. In Lush Life: A Biography of Billy Strayhorn , David Hajdu dismisses that notion from the very beginning. Schooled in Debussy and Ravel, Strayhorn brought a sensitivity and complexity that was missing in the Ellington oeuvre. Although he had talent enough for a career without Ellington, Strayhorn lacked the confidence. Being both black and gay forced him to take a back seat to his partner's celebrity. Denied greater public recognition, he sought solace in a "lush life" of his own, smoking and drinking himself to an early death in 1967. This text refers to the hardcover edition of this title Amazon.com Although he composed some of the most brilliant American music of this century, Billy Strayhorn spent his entire career as Duke Ellington's right-hand man and seldom escaped Ellington's conspicuous shadow. To a great extent, this was a willed obscurity: as an uncloseted gay man, Strayhorn preferred to avoid the spotlight. Toward the end of his life, however, this trade-off began to weigh more heavily on him. David Hajdu's account is a model of the witty, elegant, and deeply sympathetic biography.

89. Billy Strayhorn billy strayhorn et DukeEllington. C'est à Antibes, quelques semaines avant sa mort http://www.jazzmagazine.com/Interviews/Dhier/Ellington/DEitw.htm

"Je suis aussi pauvre qu'un rat d'église." Billy Strayhorn et Duke Ellington. Otto Hardwicke, qui jouait de l’alto avec nous. C’est l’un des plus grands lead-alto que j’aie entendus. Un jour, nous avons pris le même train. Il entra par une porte, moi par une autre, et nous nous rencontrâmes au milieu du wagon. Il m’a dit : " Je sais comment on devrait t’appeler : Swee’ Pea ! " On m’avait donné des tas de surnoms qui évoquent des personnes de petite taille, tels que Shorty. A l’époque je ne savais pas ce que Swee’ Pea voulait dire. Il me l’apprit : " C’est le bébé de Popeye, dans les bandes dessinées ! " Et depuis, on m’appelle Swee’ Pea. Ce qui peut se traduire par " Mimosa " puisque c’est le nom francais du bébé de Popeye... Non, je ne 1’ai pas rencontré dans l’espoir de travailler avec lui comme parolier. Des amis savaient que j’avais écrit des paroles et de la musique et ils me poussaient à en faire quelque chose. Un ami d’Ellington, fils d’une personnalité de Pittsburgh, a arrangé une entrevue avec Duke. J’y suis allé et, quand je suis revenu j’ai dit à tout le monde : " Voilà, j’ai fait ce que vous vouliez que je fasse... " Je pensais sincèrement que ça ne marcherait pas.

PROGRAM SESSION INDEX PREVIOUS ... NEXT ABSTRACT [Sat. evening, 13 Nov., 8:00-11:00: Ellington: The first 100 years, paper 5 of 5] Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn: A Veiled Collaboration Walter van de Leur (Arnhem College of the Arts) For almost three decades, until his death in May 1967, Billy Strayhorn (b. 1915) worked for Duke Ellington as a composer, arranger, and pianist. Sixteen years younger than Ellington and rooted in a background of nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century classical music, Strayhorn became Ellington's closest musical collaborator. Strayhorn's actual contribution to the Ellington Orchestra has been more significant than generally acknowledged. Known as an assistant who helped Ellington out with numerous projects, he was in truth an imaginative composer and orchestrator who brought a new way of writing to the Ellington band. With compositions such as "Chelsea Bridge," rich in classical harmonies, or the structurally complex "Overture to a Jam Session," he modernized the orchestra's sound and opened new compositional vistas, not only for Ellington, but for other modern composer-orchestrators as well. Apart from composing many originals, Strayhorn also arranged hundreds of popular songs, continuously revitalized the Ellington Orchestra's repertoire, and collaborated with its namesake on larger projects such as suites, musicals, and film and TV scores. This presentation will introduce the Ellington-Strayhorn collaboration in historic terms, and illustrate the dynamics of their musical partnership by means of a case study of one of their collaborative efforts, "The Eighth Veil." The handwritten manuscript scores of this nominal Ellington-Strayhorn composition reveal the work's origins: a remarkable recycling of musical material.

93. Ron Gill - The Songs Of Billy Strayhorn The first compilation of songs by Duke Ellington's famed collaborator performedby a jazz singer, Songs of billy strayhorn is the result of 20 years of http://www.ron-gill.com/rgstrayhorn.html

The first compilation of songs by Duke Ellington's famed collaborator performed by a jazz singer, "Songs of Billy Strayhorn" is the result of 20 years of research into Strayhorn's music by Ron Gill. It includes Strayhorn standards as well as many rare gems including the premiere recording of "The Last Light of Evening." The CD features liner notes were written by Billy Strayhorn biographer, David Hadju. Billy Strayhorn was classically trained and his love of theater and cabaret fueled his devotion to writing songs. Gill's search for Strayhorn's songs began in 1977 following his performance of "Day Dream" for a concert coordinated by Ran Blake for New England Conservatory. Gill was taken by the song and the response it elicited from the audience. He began researching Strayhorn songs and twenty years later performed only Strayhorn songs in a sold-out concert March 19, 1997 at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, MA, with special guest Hajdu and members of the Strayhorn family. Sultry, swinging, textured and intimate, "Songs of Billy Strayhorn" is a memorable tribute to the great composer by a true fan.

J A Z Z S C R I P T home timelines CD search book search ... contact us Something To Live For The Music Of Billy Strayhorn Walter Van De Leur Oxford University Press, 2002 Duke Ellington was one of jazz's greatest figures, a composer and bandleader of unparalleled importance and influence. But little attention has been given to his chief musical collaborator, Billy Strayhorn, who created hundreds of compositions and arrangements for his musical partner, and without whom the sound of Ellington's orchestra would be very different. Now, in Walter van de Leur's provocative new book, Something to Live For , Billy Strayhorn steps out from Ellington's shadow and into the spotlight. Van de Leur argues that far from being merely a follower of Ellington or his alter ego, Strayhorn brought a radically new and visionary way of writing to the Ellington orchestra. Making extensive use, for the first time, of over 3,000 autograph scores, Van de Leur separates Strayhorn from Ellington, establishes who wrote what, and clearly distinguishes between their distinctive musical styles. "Both Strayhorn's and Ellington's œvres," writes Van de Leur, "through historically intertwined, nevertheless form coherent, separate musical entities, especially in terms of harmonic, melodic and structural design."
