Kim Nazarian Three bands: The New York Voices, El Eco, and Gabriel Espinosa's band. What do they have in common? Vocalist Kim Nazarian. Members of all three bands appeared together recently at the Jazz Forum in Tarrytown New York. Featured on the date, besides Ms. Nazarian, were Darmon Meader voice, tenor sax (NY Voices); Guillermo Nojechowicz drums (El Eco); Gabriel Espinosa bass, composer, and Misha Tsiganov piano (Gabriel Espinosa's band).  New York Voices  Let's start with the New York Voices. This is probably Ms. Nazarian's most visible and well-known project. She is a founding member of the group, which formed in 1987. Ms Nazarian was nominated for a Grammy award in 2008 for Best Instrumental Arrangement Accompanying Vocalists, for the song In The Wee Small Hours of the Morning.  The ban...

Let's Talk: Alan Broadbent Air Date: 8/29/2021  With the release of his latest CD Broadbent Plays Brubeck , pianist, arranger, and composer Alan Broadbent solidifies his place as the foremost creator of orchestral jazz today.    Wow, that is a big statement, but it is true. I am not sure of the label, however. "Orchestral jazz" seems too narrow for Mr. Broadbent's expansive vision that melds string orchestra with piano trio into a jazzy but classical kind of sound. I guess if you like comparisons, you might consider George Gershwin. But his music also calls to mind Charles Ives, maybe Aaron Copeland. Now you can add Dave Brubeck to the list.   The only way to understand my inadequate words is to listen to the music. Join me on 8/29/2021 as Mr. Broadbent takes us on a tour of his new release.   The show kicks off with a gorgeous track from Hélio Alves. Then the orchestral focus begins. It's All About The Strings The next few songs feature string or full orchestra...

The Sunday Jazz Brunch Presents Openers Air Date: 5/11/2025 on 90.5 WICN 9am-12pm ET If you miss the air date: click here for the archi ves for up to two weeks . So I was watching one of the Rick Beato videos where he talks extensively about Pat Metheny. Well, that got me excited to review our Pat Metheny collection, and when I came upon a couple of really beautiful tunes - perfect for your contemplative morning - I knew I had to use them to open the show. Today's show will open with the complete version of one of those tunes - The Road to You , the title number from Mr. Metheny's 1993 release. After receiving an email asking about this and some other tunes that I use as openers, I decided. Why not do an hour of just openers? These are some of the best songs I know, so it is fitting for us to listen to the entirety of each, rather than sampling the bits that you hear when the show opens.  Almost all of the songs in the first hour are openers and have been used several times. I...
