What Drummers Think About Buddy Rich

Andrew Gilbert sorts out an ongoing conflict among drum students. You must swing (play along with records then your high school big band. You learn to read and play the dynamics and cues of the arrangement. But what you can never “learn” is the ability to swing. Listen to every drummer you love and find the feel. That’s drumming (from Baby Dodds to Tony Williams)!

Charles Turner, Marcus Scott & Sean Mason in MELANIN or THE IN CROWD July 31, 2021 at Catskill’s Bridge Street Theatre

A Brand-New Musical in Concert at Catskill’s Bridge Street Theatre

Wrapping up a recent Artists’ Residency at the Catwalk Institute with pianist/composer Sean Mason and playwright Marcus Scott, Brooklyn-based vocalist and composer Charles Turner will present a one-night only “tasting” from the project they’ve all been creating together. This will be the very first airing of selections/songs from “Melanin or The In-Crowd”, an exciting new musical theatre piece in its nascent stages, to be performed live at Catskill’s Bridge Street Theatre on Saturday evening July 31 at 8:00pm.

Over the course of a weekend, a cadre of young, upscale, globetrotting professionals gather for one last hurrah in and around NYC’s lounge scene. Celebrating the newfound success of one of their own who has received a lucrative job offer overseas, the coterie spends an unforgettable weekend, touring various nightclubs in an endless cavalcade of booze, hookups and cheap thrills.

Inspired by the classic golden age MGM Hollywood musicals, but filtered through a modern lens, this splashy new musical encompasses a variety of musical styles such as blues, jazz, swing, big band, jazz fusion, progressive soul, psychedelic soul, cinematic soul, Sophisti-pop, quiet storm, urban, doo-wop, hip-hop soul, neo-soul, alternative R&B, funk, dancehall, reggae, highlife and afro pop. “Melanin or The In-Crowd” is a postmodern coming of age rom-com that explores themes including millennials and the youth of America, materialism, consumerism, capitalism and commodification, classism, colorism, selfishness, respectability politics, depersonalization and dating in the digital age, sexism, sexual freedom, and modern love, all through the prism of black bourgeois culture.

The multi-faceted Turner has performed at such venues as Dizzy’s Club Coca Cola at Jazz at Lincoln Center, Birdland, Smoke Jazz club and the historic Minton’s Playhouse in Harlem. International performances include PizzaExpress in London, Sunset/Sunside in Paris, Sala Clamores in Madrid, and other venues abroad from Seoul, South Korea to Wellington, New Zealand. His passion is to bring swing and jazz to listeners of all generations, carrying the Spirit of Harlem and the torch of the past into the present day for music lovers and dancers throughout the world to experience, embrace, and enjoy. This new collaboration with pianist/composer Sean Mason and playwright Marcus Scott extends Turner’s range even further and promises to be an event to remember.

SEAN MASON. Born and raised in Charlotte, NC, Sean Mason taught himself by ear how to play the piano at the age of 13.

Matthew Whitaker - Now Hear This

I never heard Matthew Whitaker’s debut album, but this second release is so impressive I want to go check it out. His life story is that this 18 year old young man was blind since birth, learned to play the  piano at three, and has toured with Stevie Wonder. All of this makes for a fascinating story, and even better is that the quality and enthusiasm of the music stands up on its own.

Whitaker plays piano, Moog, Hammond B3 and other keyboards as he teams up with jazaz vets Dave Stryker/g, Yunior Terry/b, Ulysses Owens Jr/dr and Sammy Figueroa on a mix of cleverly arranged covers and strident originals. His touch on the piano is joyful and dramatic, dancing with Owens on “Overcoat” and telling a fluid story with Terry during “Tranquility.” His full-fisted “Bernie’s Tune” includes a drive inspired by McCoy Tyner while he takes a wondrous journey on Duke Ellington’s “U.M.M.G.” On the Hammond, he mixes Sly and the Family Stone funk and Sunday Morning Service enthusiasm on a stomping “The Blood Will Never Lose Its Power” and sizzles with Stryker on a rocking read of “Freedom Jazz Dance” that howls like an alley cat. ON the more reflective side, “Thinking of You” is a romantic dream, and when teaming up with Marc Cary on “Black Butterfly” the team gets into a soul groove. A fusion “Underground” with Whitaker on synthesizer includes delightful flute by Gabrielle Garo and Whitaker boogaloos with Stryker on the ultra hip “Miss Michelle.” This one bubbles over with infectious enthusiasm; look for it!
