Sage Wisdom

"Good improvisation communicates harmonic progression melodically. Effective melodies manipulate harmonic content through the use of guide tones and preparatory gravity notes, masterfully woven in systematic tension, release, and transparent harmonic definition."

March 10, 2006 | Jethro's Birthday

Just in time to celebrate Jethro Burns' Birthday (born March 10, 1920, Knoxville, TN), some great reading about his protege, Chicago jazz master Don Stiernberg.

Read: Article

What great fortune for Don to early in his great career, forsake the bassoon for the mandolin! The world is a far better place for it. ("Cherokee" just wouldn't sound the same on a double reed...)

Catch Don with John Carlini in concert Saturday, March 11 at the Harper College Theater in Palatine. (Can you keep a secret? Go and you'll probably get a sneak peak of new material from their upcoming CD release!)
