Music Gallery əlaqə

Downtown Music Gallery is a long-running, internationally-known record store, mail-order, and performance space located in New York City. It specializes in "Downtown Music", a recognized catchphrase for avant-garde jazz and contemporary composition, experimental, and improvisational music from around the world. It was founded in 1991, by David Yamner, Stephen Popkin and Bruce Lee Gallanter.[1]

In the early 2000s as I was fumbling my way into ever more challenging music, I somehow 'discovered' the Downtown Music Gallery in its incarnation on the Bowery in downtown New York City. I was innocently walking up the street and in a somewhat opaque window noticed Dave Douglas' Strange Liberation, and went in. I ended up instead buying Nucleus' Live in Bremen, which was playing in the store at the time, I also had taken the first steps through a gateway to whole other world.

The record store is now an impressive 32 years old (that's pretty old in record-store years) and still keeping the downtown scene music alive with live sets every week and a mind boggling array of CDs, LPs, books and more for sale. Today, we pay a visit to Bruce Gallanter to learn about the history of DMG as well as the challenges it faces, and tomorrow Bruce answers the "Sunday Interview" questions (though modified slightly for a record store proprietor).

John Zorn had started a performance place in 2005 called The Stone which was located at the corner of 2nd St & Avenue C. It was named after Irving Stone, who was married to Stephanie, an older couple that were already John Zorn/Downtown music fans when I met them in 1980. The Stone was a funky, no-nonsense room where you had to want across the band stand in order to get to the bathroom, wait on line outside no matter the weather and placed no music on the PA before or after the performance. Both Manny and I became unpaid volunteers at The Stone, which we were proud to do. In December of 2006, Manny and I were asked to curate The Stone for a month, six nights a week, two sets per night. We put together an incredible month and asked some 25 musicians from around the world to play, paying them $1,000 each cash from a piggy bank underneath my bed (no joke). I asked three members of Henry Cow (my favorite progressive band), Fred Frith, Tim Hodgkinson & Chris Cutler, to play that month and they said yes! Folks came from around the world to attend these shows!

PA: Where the store is located now, it requires a real effort to get to, but people do - it's almost a pilgrimage for some visitors. Why is this? What do you think makes it such a destination?

BG: We moved to 13 Monroe St in Chinatown in January of 2020. I had never heard of Monroe Street, which is in the two bridges section, between the Manhattan & Brooklyn bridges. We are between Catherine and Market Streets, about two blocks from the river with Brooklyn on the other side. When we moved there were no stores on the block, just several Chinese/Buddhist temples, a couple of beauty salons, a grocery store and small drug store. Our manager at the time was Chuck Bettis, a good electronic musician and a nice person work with.

This hand-coloured print depicts a view of the music gallery in the Royal Pavilion, Brighton. In this print it can be seen that the grand piano by Mott originally stood in this room. The Music Gallery would have been used for chamber concerts and song recitals when there were not enough guests to justify opening the Music Room.

Guitarist Hayes Griffin, who graduated from Denison in 2010 and now tours full time with the April Verch Band, says developing the ability to understand the music without written instruction is no cakewalk, but certainly comes with its rewards.

A new voice representing Latin culture's impact on music history opened its doors Tues., Nov. 18, at the GRAMMY Museum right in the heart of Los Angeles.

The city's first permanent Latin music gallery brought together Latin music's biggest stars, industry professionals, political figures and community members for a ribbon-cutting ceremony and celebration of the historic event.

The Latin Academy is donating more than half a million dollars to expand the museum's Latin-inspired exhibits, including the permanent gallery and the Latin GRAMMY show exhibit. "This is a momentous occasion for the GRAMMY Museum and for Los Angeles," said ribbon-cutting ceremony host, journalist Giselle Fernandez, a former Latin Recording Academy board member.

GRAMMY Museum President Michael Sticka said the museum was proud to be the home of the first permanent Latin music gallery in the city. "We're very excited to play host to that," he said in his remarks.

In a statement prior to the opening, Sticka touched on how the exhibit would expand the ethos of the GRAMMY Museum. "Latin GRAMMY, 20 Years Of Excellence and our newly renovated third floor will greatly amplify the Museum's mission to educate, inspire, and share the significance of all forms of music," he said.

It was not forgotten that the gallery opened in one of the country's cities most-inspired by Latin culture and populated by Latinos. According to 2011 Pew Research Center statistics, Hispanics made up 4.9 million of the Los Angeles County population or 9 percent of the country's Hispanic population.

Hilda Solis, First District Los Angeles County Supervisor and former President Barack Obama cabinet member, reminded the crowd of the significance of the gallery's location. "[This is a] long-time coming for us," she said. "We know the musica is our life, it's our culture, it's our livelihood and it brings us so many good things when things are sour and bad."

Recent Latin GRAMMY Best Ranchero/Mariachi Album winner Christian Nodal and GRAMMY-nominated singer Angela Aguilar, were two stars invited to represent the next generation of Latin music and help cut the ribbon.

The Office of L.A. City Council President Herb Abaroa also presented a certificate declaring Nov. 18 as the official Latin GRAMMY day. The night included performances from GRAMMY- and Latin GRAMMY-nominated Puerto Rican singer/songwriter Raquel Sofia and Latin GRAMMY winners Flor de Toloache and gave the public their first look at the exciting new exhibit and gallery.

At 46, she released some of the most intriguing and successful singles of her career: "El Jefe," with msica mexicana sensation Fuerza Regida, "TQG," with fellow Colombian KAROL G, and an already classic Bizarrap session that may well be the best revenge song of the past 50 years. In November she collected three Latin GRAMMY awards and, in March, the GRAMMY Museum opened an exhibit focusing on her music.

Quick to absorb the influences that evolve around her, she sounds right at home in the jagged bounce of the rhythm track, trading seduction barbs like a seasoned reggaetonera. Shakira seems to love infectious dance music, and the urbano cosmovision is a perfect match for her pop sensibility.

Released on Oct. 27, "Perfect Night" is LE SSERAFIM's first all-English track, co-written by member HUH YUNJIN. The group teamed up with the video game 'Overwatch 2' to create the animations for the music video; they later promoted the track at the gaming convention BlizzCon 2023.

The Recording Academy and GRAMMY Museum today announced a total of 10 music teachers as finalists for the 2024 Music Educator Award, the annual honor that recognizes current educators who have made a significant and lasting contribution to the music education field and who also demonstrate a commitment to the broader cause of maintaining music education in the schools. The 10 finalists, who hail from 10 cities across nine states, were selected from more than 2,000 initial nominations submitted from across all 50 U.S. states. See the full list of the 2024 Music Educator Award finalists below.

Each year, one Music Educator Award recipient is selected from 10 finalists and recognized for their remarkable impact on students' lives. The selected recipient will receive a $10,000 honorarium and matching grant for their school's music program. The nine additional finalists will receive a $1,000 honorarium and matching grants. The remaining 15 semifinalists will receive a $500 honorarium with matching school grants.

An established partnership between the Recording Academy and GRAMMY Museum, the Music Educator Award is open to current U.S. music teachers. Anyone can nominate a teacher: students, parents, friends, colleagues, community members, school deans, and administrators. Teachers are also able to nominate themselves. Nominated teachers are notified and invited to fill out an application.

The Recording Academy is continuing to honor the legacy of hip-hop, to one of the most popular genres of music in America. Held on Dec. 4 at the GRAMMY Museum in downtown Los Angeles, Resonance: Celebrating 50 Years of Hip-Hop was presented by the Academy's Black Music Collective and sponsored by City National Bank.

The Resonance event took over the Museum's fourth floor, which is home to the recently unveiled "Hip Hop America: The Mixtape Exhibit." There, members and leadership from the Academy and BMC, along with musicians and industry professionals, celebrated 50 years of music that has transcended boundaries, inspired advocacy and fostered impactful social change.

The power of connection and representation was emphasized by five-time GRAMMY winner Jimmy Jam, an R&B songwriter, music producer, and illustrious GRAMMY Museum Board Member. "The idea of 'resonance' struck a chord in me because the mission is unification, amplification and to celebrate Black music. Nothing resonates more in our everyday lives than hip-hop."

"We protect and celebrate those who have shared their gift as well as ensure their artistic contributions are accessible for people of all walks of life around the world and for future generations," she said, adding that as a Museum board member, "educating the next generation of artists and teachers is always top of mind. The 'Mixtape Exhibit' really will inspire students to pursue hip hop and the music industry." e24fc04721
