Скачать или смотреть Snowfall in Central Park - Joe Locke - Performed by Garrett Ciriello

Snowfall in Central Park (2011) is a programmatic piece inspired by an early winter’s walk in New York City’s Central Park. In the original version, recorded by the chamber trio Storms/Nocturnes on the CD ‘VIA’ (Origin, 2011), pianist Geoffrey Keezer and I represent the snowfall. Saxophonist Tim Garland is the protagonist in the story - the person enjoying a stroll. In this solo version, of course, both roles are melded into one. The composition is based on a series of arpeggios, which are repeated in several keys, after being initially stated at the beginning of the piece. Joe Locke is widely considered to be one of the major voices of his instrument. He has performed and recorded with a diverse range of notable musicians, including Grover Washington Jr, Kenny Barron, Eddie Henderson, Cecil Taylor, Dianne Reeves, Ron Carter, The Beastie Boys, the Münster Symphony Orchestra and the Lincoln, Nebraska Symphony. Long known to be a soloist capable of stunning physical power and broad emotional range, it was not until the last decade that he emerged as the composer, band leader and conceptualist that he is considered today. Locke has won numerous awards and polls, including the 2006, 2008 and 2009 "Mallet Player of the Year" award from the Jazz Journalists Association. He is active as a clinician / educator and has been the International Vibraphone Consultant at the Royal Academy of Music, London, on a visiting basis since 2008.
