Rooster_Ties Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 From the "music page" at Ms. Marchant's web-site... Listen to Marissa's music: My order form is at the bottom of this page. You can donate to this site, or you can send a love offering and possibly receive a cd, if the offering is a real show of support. Quote
Man with the Golden Arm Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 mm, check this voice - silvana deluigi and again. ... your "El Sol Que Tu Eres" (nice) lead me there. Quote
Joe G Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 We've been doing the "Love Offering" thing for a while now at the gigs. I wouldn't know how to make it work via the website. Suggestions? Quote

JSngry Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 Not unless I was to like a self-produced demo-quality Sandy Hurvitz/Ezzra Mohawk kind of thing with no real sense of nuance, spacing, and timing, no. Sandy's album has already been here (at last) for over 30 years, but the news has not yet reached some quarters. More's the pity. Quote
RDK Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 Jim, you're a braver* man than I am. (* or possible just more foolish or with way more free time on your hands) Quote
maren Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 "Love thou art best of human joys" from "The Female Virtuosos" by Thomas Wright (1691) music : Henry Purcell words : Anne Finch, Countess of Winchilsea Included on this new release from Decca (475 529-2 DC6), Purcell: Theatre Music Quote
JSngry Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 Hey - I'm no stranger to wackjobs who also happen to be pretty gifted. Nor am I a stranger to wackjobs who just THINK that they're gifted. I just wanted to see if she was as purely wack as she came across, or if she might really have something going on to go with it. One never knows... She's got a good voice, that's for sure. Obviously trained and all that. But having something and knowing how to use it are two different things.... Quote
maren Posted July 9, 2004 Report Posted July 9, 2004 Or marissam, do you mean: Toshiko Akiyoshi, Geri Allen, Dorothy Ashby, Cindy Blackman, Carla Bley, Karen Borca, Joanne Brackeen, Terri Lyne Carrington, Regina Carter, Marilyn Crispell, Lil Hardin, Bertha Hope, Susie Ibarra, Ingrid Jensen, Melba Liston, Marian McPartland, Renee Rosnes, Michelle Rosewoman, Irene Schweizer, Mary Lou Williams... et cetera Quote
Joe G Posted July 9, 2004 Report Posted July 9, 2004 Maren, I get the impression that Marissa was asking if there were any other female virtuosos on this board, besides herself. It's lonely at the top, don't ya know... Quote
Brandon Burke Posted July 9, 2004 Report Posted July 9, 2004 Some of my favorite records are "self produced" and "demo quailty". Quote
doubleM Posted July 9, 2004 Report Posted July 9, 2004 True...but they are probably also listenable. Quote
cannonball-addict Posted July 9, 2004 Report Posted July 9, 2004 I hate to take the "fun" out of this post but this is an appropriate time to reiterate my love of these two REAL female virtuosi: Melba Liston, trombone Renee Rosnes, piano Unquestionably masters of their instruments. different time periods. too often taken for granted. -mm Quote
JSngry Posted July 9, 2004 Report Posted July 9, 2004 Some of my favorite records are "self produced" and "demo quailty". Well, sure! But how many of your favorite records are self-produced demo-quality Sandy Hurvitz/Ezzra Mohawk kinds of things with no real sense of nuance, spacing, and timing? Not many, I suspect! Quote
