One of New York’s best jazz pianists, Cary has been a singular presence in New York for three decades including celebrated work with Betty Carter and Abbey Lincoln. Today, he is at the forefront of the musically diverse, genre blending contemporary jazz scene. As The New York Times observed, “There isn’t much in the modern-jazz-musician tool kit that Marc Cary hasn’t mastered, but he has a particular subspecialty in the area of groove…with a range of rhythmic strategies, from a deep-house pulse to a swinging churn.” Quote

kh1958 Posted June 18, 2021 Author Report Posted June 18, 2021 MOKE SCREENS PRESENTS: THE STEVE TURRE "GENERATIONS" SEXTET FRIDAY JUNE 18 - SATURDAY JUNE 19 / STREAMED LIVE / 8PM EST Buy Streaming Pass Steve Turre (trombone & shells) Wallace Roney Jr. (trumpet) Emilio Modeste (tenor & soprano saxophones) Isaiah Thompson (piano) Corcoran Holt (bass) Orion Turre (drums) “The jazz world needs more Steve Turres. A powerful technician with a soulful tone and quick wit, Turre is perhaps the leading trombonist of this generation.” – Rolling Stone Steve Turre, one of the world’s preeminent jazz innovators on both the trombone and seashells, leads his Generations Sextet in two nights of state-of-the-art livestream concerts. These performances will be available for viewing all weekend. His impressive and youthful ensemble includes trumpeter Wallace Roney Jr., saxophonist Emilio Modeste, pianist Isaiah Thompson, bassist Corcoran Holt and drummer Orion Turre, an impressive crop of emerging jazz greats. Turre’s own storied career includes work alongside music legends such as Ray Charles, Rahsaan Roland Kirk, and Woody Shaw, and he has consistently won both the Readers’ and Critics’ polls in JazzTimes, Downbeat, and Jazziz for Best Trombone and for Best Miscellaneous Instrumentalist (shells). A versatile master and true jazz original, he’s equally at home on everything from swinging classic bop lines or conjuring Rahsaan over a deep groove. Downbeat says, “Few artists ‘own’ their instrument to the degree that trombonist Steve Turre does. Whether playing the music of Rahsaan Roland Kirk, performing as a member of the Saturday Night Live house band or with one of his own units, his voice is distinctive and memorable." Quote

The New York Times says, “Blake’s drumming is as bold as thunder and as subtle as the patter of rain.” The Guardian adds, “his command of time is quite unbelievable – tricky and playful but accurate to the millisecond.” Quote
bertrand Posted July 5, 2021 Report Posted July 5, 2021 (edited) Smoke made a smart decision. Any club that chooses to discontinue the livestreams after reopening is shooting itself in the foot. Smoke's streams are high quality. Edited July 5, 2021 by bertrand Quote
Kevin Bresnahan Posted July 5, 2021 Report Posted July 5, 2021 I am asking a serious question here... Does anyone know how the publishing rights work with these live streams? I ask because I knew a guy who got into trouble because he had the audacity to play music over his bar's speaker system without making arrangements with the publishing arm of the music industry. They literally came knocking on his door with their hand out. Quote
