MATT WILSON: Allowing the Music to Happen - for ALL Instruments!
Ways to be a valuable bandstand citizen who is ready, emphatic & supportive
*** For ALL Instruments***
WHAT MATT WILL COVER:
ENTER MATT:
Matt Wilson’s alter ego superhero character, The Allower, returns!
The great Dewey Redman, after expressing his gratitude an evening of music, said to me, “You know Matthew, people sound their best when they play with me.”
I was taken aback. I never heard him utter a glimpse revealing an ego.
Really, their best?
He was right. People did sound their best when they played with him.
He allowed you to radiate.
What factors welcome that in a band?
What allows the music to flow in a resistance-free terrain?
The Allower will discuss ways to be a valuable bandstand citizen who is ready, emphatic & supportive.
About MATT WILSON:
Matt has released thirteen albums as a leader & appeared on more than 400 others as a sideman.
He has played with an impressive array of some of the most legendary names in jazz, including Wynton Marsalis, Lee Konitz, Joe Lovano, Pat Metheny, Dewey Redman, Charlie Haden, John Scofield, Joanne Brackeen and Herbie Hancock.
He was named 2018 Musician of the Year by the Jazz Journalists Association.
And his album "Honey And Salt" won the JJA’s Album of the Year Award.
That recording and his previous, "Beginning of a Memory," accomplished the rare feat of an artist receiving consecutive 5-star (masterpiece) reviews from DownBeat Magazine.
Matt’s commitment to jazz goes far beyond his estimable skills as a drummer & bandleader.
Also a renowned educator, he is on a tireless mission to foster a lively and deep connection between music and people, whether they be playing or listening to it.
He is extremely passionate about bringing jazz to new audiences and inspiring students to be as individualistic & imaginative as possible.
=> You can purchase access for ONLY the upcoming MATT WILSON live webinar on Sunday, February 16 HERE.
(But the JazzHeaven EDGE membership (which includes it ALL!) sure is an infinitely better deal. Just sayin'...)
