rather detailed article on Hipp: http://www.vonschuttenbach.com/articles/Ju...ly_2006_new.pdf (english translation at the end...)

you can add rod levitt to the trombone section (and bill barber if you don't mind a tuba)

Donald Ayler Art Davis

sorry jazzman but this is a country music board, we just prefer to call it jazz

happy birthday

in case anyone else needs to look it up "cor" means "oh my god" (?), hadn't seen it before and now MG uses it on several threads

that's really the buy now price, 98 Euro shipping or pick it up yourself (which would be right around the corner for me but i don't have a car and even that wouldn't suffice...) i saw a finished auction for the same organ with 5 or 6 bids and a finishing bid of 102 Euro...

the type of thing you find on ebay when you cannot sleep... if i got this right then this thing doesn't sound more like a "real" organ than any new keyboard i'd buy(?) so the advantage would be that on it i could probably learn to play on an organ (with foot pedals and stuff)... guess i will not buy it, it's not the price that bothers me (if it still works then i guess the price is ok...) but that i have to pay rent for the huge space where it stands...

hi, i'd like to know whether it is silly to buy something like this / what this is: http://cgi.ebay.de/Hammond-Orgel_W0QQitemZ...1QQcmdZViewItem the price is rather low (40 Euro=60$) and i could maybe go there to test it... thank you very much!

...

that's my favorite, too... (but there is still too much i don't know)

Alban Berg - Wozzek Richard Strauss - Salome Maurice Ravel - String Quartet and Claude Debussy - String Quartet (i have them on one CD, the only classical cd that gets rgular play overhere) Johannes Brahms - Clarinet Sonatas Cesar Franck - Violin Sonata and sentimental favorite Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy Violin Concerto

nothing others here haven't known for years... Charles Tolliver - Impact (Enja) Eddy Louiss - Trio and Bohemia after Dark Ike Quebec - Heavy Soul Lee Morgan - Leeway Sonny Criss - Mr Blues Pour Flirter Grant Green - Talkin About Bobby Jaspar - Moder Jazz au Club St Germain Freddie Hubbard - Open Sesame

don't like to tell you but as far as i can see this is true for any age group you pick

maybe another candidate thread for the new classical forum (now tell me why is classical under music discussions and hammond zone under general... ) i need a recording of the Waldstein sonata as a christmas present, my buying instructions include: not too slow, melody lines should come out clearly ("Bach-like"?), not too dynamic/dramatic, no cheating in the fast runs... any idea which recording is great and (in tendency) matches these requirements?

wilbur ware - the chicago sound (ojc) surprised to see this was still around

took me two days to realize how offensive i could have taken THAT (if i weren't swiss in a broad sense of the word as well)

hey, why does the picture say 9999 posts?

I think what you're missing is that this is something that has bothered John for a period of time, and Chris happened to give an example of it in this thread. A PM wouldn't do anything - Chris would laugh in his (anonymous) face. The point is to call people out so that maybe John's points get across to the board in general. i think this is an important point, maybe couw could have waited two days longer to find a better example, but then we all know that better example would have turned up anyway, so why wait... i think jim has reported on a gig they didn't get because of something we wrote...

right music at the right time for me, thank you very very much!!

similar thing here, have been wondering for three years whether my saxophone needs a repair or whether i just "forgot how to play"... will try to change that next year

"Today's active topics" is working again now, though some of the times are a bit suspicious. Looking at another thread, I see that, about the same time you posted, someone said there were a huge number of users on line. MG "Most users ever online was 322 on Today, 06:21 PM" no idea which 06:21 he means (maybe he put together people from different hours? (just kidding))

see my post above, the weill tune is for instance on this lotte lenya cd (under the name trouble man, don't know whether the two names correspond to different lyrics...?) amazon here it is called lover man: other cd

from the lotte lenya chronicle: http://www.kwf.org/pages/ll/llcareer3.html "Records Six Songs by Kurt Weill for Bost Records (BA 8) in New York. The recording is supervised by Weill. Lenya sings "Surabaya-Johnny," "Denn wie man sich bettet," "J'attends un navire," "Complainte de la Seine," "Lost in the Stars," and "Lover Man" (later revised as "Trouble Man")." so i guess this is where the mistake if it is one comes from, composing the lover man we all know is afaik the thing ram ramirez is most famous for...

i have one more story from that job, there was this theater performance where the "audience" would stand at the window in a building at a very busy four way street while the actors would run around on that street (it was about 5 in the afternoon and thus heavy traffic), my job was to stand outside and tell people that they had just had the luck of running into a free theater performance and invite them to come in (didn't work, maybe i was not as friendly as i could have been, but i guess there were other issues as well) it was raining real hard which meant for me that my job of standing outside was not overly pleasant, more importantly it meant that the audience inside could hardly see the actors out on the street 50 meters from them; not surprisingly it took less than 10 minutes till some concerned car driver called the police... after the performance was over the director decided that my conversation with the police men had actually been the most interesting part of the (?) play, (at least it was the only part of the play the audience could actually see), glad she couldn't hear what i said, i was not too respectful concerning the whole performance and the artist ("no they are not drunk, they are artists they know what they're doing...") (i actually was drunk, years later when i had a job in an insurance company i looked back and realized that in that environment it had been completely normal to drink to or three large bottles of beer during work...)(after these experiences it was clear to me that i didn't want a job that had remotely to do with culture later in my life...) (and i dare say people in insurance companies really are nicer with each other)(wouldn't want to work there either however) (the artists really weren't the problem, most of them were actually rather nice; but pretty much all the other people there, those who set up the exhibitions and stuff...)
