Ep 48: Ted Howe Interview-My First Jazz Teacher!
<p>Ted is my first Jazz Piano teacher. Although he and I have been in touch over the years, we haven’t actually talked for quite a while. Recently, we have been communicating more frequently, and I invited him to do an interview with me. I will post it here and on my podcast, <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/notes-on-jazz/id1650660956">Notes on Jazz</a>. As a result, I’m taking some more lessons! Ted has continued to develop his skills and approach over the years. I find it very inspiring, and it fits naturally with where I am in my own path at this time. When the student is ready…..</p> <p><br></p> <p>Ted is a great teacher! He got me started on the right path and gave me so much information and practical guidance. Besides that, he is a great player and composer/arranger. He is one of the few people around who understands and employs the compositional and arranging approach called “Line writing”. This approach originated with the work of Duke Ellington and was further developed by Herb Pomeroy, of Berklee College fame. More to come about this in our next segment.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Ted has played with a Who’s Who of Jazz and pop artists over the years. It’s wonderful to hear him talk about it all. I invite you to enjoy this talk with a Jazz Master, and my friend and teacher.</p> <p><br></p> <p>A note about the interview. Unfortunately, it cuts off abruptly at the end, as we suddenly ran out of time. Not to worry, though. I have several more hours of material that I will be preparing to share, and probably more to come after that!</p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://www.tedhowe.com/">Ted Howe</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>To watch the video of this interview, go to <a href="https://keithdavis.substack.com/p/interview-with-ted-howe">KeithDavis.Substack.com</a></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p><p></p><p>I am available for online or in person study.</p> <p>Reach out to me at: keith@keithdavismusic.com</p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://keithdavismusic.com/">Keith Davis Music</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Check out my new Substack: <a href="https://keithdavis.substack.com/">Bang the Gong: Music and Movement</a></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p>

Ep 47: Alan Hall Interview
<p>Alan Hall is a great drummer and composer who has been living in Asheville, NC for the last few years. Alan and I met through Art Lande. Alan and Art have a years long musical and personal association and have played on several recordings together. Art was staying at Alan's home last year when he came to Asheville to perform. I had the good fortune to spend the day with them. </p> <p><br></p> <p>In this conversation we cover lots of topics, from ideas about teaching and writing, to the state of the music business, to what it's like trying to become viable as online music biz people. I know you'll enjoy it. </p> <p><br></p> <p>Above all, Alan is a great player! I recommend Art Lande's The Silver Fox, Paul McCandless' Shape Shifter, and Bruce Williamson's Standard Transmission. You will find more on his website.</p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://jazzdrumming.com/">Alan Hall </a></p><p></p><p>I am available for online or in person study.</p> <p>Reach out to me at: keith@keithdavismusic.com</p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://keithdavismusic.com/">Keith Davis Music</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Check out my new Substack: <a href="https://keithdavis.substack.com/">Bang the Gong: Music and Movement</a></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p>
