| | Oregon 1000 Kilometers CD Oregon Discography of CDs
The chamber jazz outfit Oregon had been making music for almost 40 years by the time 2007's 1000 KILOMETERS was released. Eschewing jazz conventions as usual, Oregon blends styles with a sense of elegance and adventure on this set, veering from ... Full Descriptionjazz fusion to folk to world music to atmospheric chamber work. Guitarist Ralph Tower wrote most of the compositions on 1000 KILOMETERS, and reedist Paul McCandless has plenty of room to show his improvisatory chops, but the emphasis, as always with Oregon, is on organic group interplay and the remarkable textures and colors that can be achieved with an open-minded approach to boundary-breaking music.
Oregon: Ralph Towner (classical guitar); Paul McCandless (bass clarinet); Glen Moore (double bass); Mark Walker (drums).
JazzTimes (p.100) - "[D]istinguished by some largely improvised pieces and the sort of witty interplay that enlivens the quartet's concert performances." Hide Description Oregon 1000 Kilometers Songs 1000 Kilometers Review

| | Oakley Hall Gypsum Strings CD (2006)
1000 Kilometers music CDs
$12.25
Too expansive and jammy to be called simply alt-country, too avant-garde for the hacky-sack set, and absolutely nothing like Wilco, Oakley Hall's 2006 album, GYPSUM STRINGS, is a lovely musical anomaly. Sounds reminiscent of everything from Crazy Horse and Little Feet to Fred Neil to Neu! and the Velvet Underground can be heard on the Brooklyn band's third full-length. A loose, ragged feel dominates throughout, but it's held in check by remarkably varied musical interplay and assiduous songcraft. And the aching harmonies of frontman Pat Sullivan and ...

| | Huascar Barradas My Favorite Things CD (2006)
1000 Kilometers album
$18.19
Huáscar Barradas has deserved eulogies such as the one given by the prestigious German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemaine Zeitung: “Mr. Barradas transported us to the expressive spectrum of the flute, beyond of what our European ears are used to. He shined with absolute rhythmic precision and virtuosity…”To widespread the spectrum of possibilities of the flute has been, precisely, the main purpose of this particular and versatile musician who can be seen on the stages of the world performing virtually any musical stream from Bach to the Beatles, as a soloist, as a symphonic musician, playing chamber music, contemporary music, folk music, flamenco, jazz or African music. To him and his flute, everything seems to be “just music".His talent has taken him to important stages in Venezuela, USA, Japan, Germany, France, England, Canada, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Turkey, Colombia, Peru, Korea, Phillipinines, Mexico, Peru, Ecuador, Martinique, Aruba, St. Lucia and El Salvador.He has represented Venezuela at important festivals such as Radio France et Montpellier Festival, European Flute Festival of Frankfurt, Expo-Hannover 2000, National Flute Association Convention 2000, the International Contemporary Music Festival of Bogotá, International Festival of Folklore in Turkey, 1st Latin American Flute Convention in Caracas, XII International Musica Convention of Medellin, among others.He has produced 6 CDs (4 of them, platinum in the Venezuelan market) with his music band “Huáscar Barradas y Maracaibo”. In addition to it, he has recorded as soloist with the National Phylharmonic Orchestra the piece specially written for him by the Venezuelan composer Domingo Sánchez Bor, “Viaje de la Jirafa” (Journey of the Jiraffe).In 2003 he produced and launched “Pacificando”, Whales and Humans singing to life, an innovative CD; an impressive musical experiment combining sounds from the Pacific whales, with human voices and electro acoustic effects. The success of this initiative triggered his international recognition as composer.Born in Maracaibo, Huáscar is the product of an excellent academic education which includes studies at the "Conservatorio de Música José Luis Paz" of Maracaibo in Venezuela, the Brooklyn Conservatory of New York (graduated Cum Laude), the Julliard School of Music, the Superior School of Music of Frankfurt (Sehr gut). He has studied under the supervision of prestigious Maestros as Eulogio Gómez, Bernard Golberg, Nirijam Nastasy, Robert Aitken, Aurele Nicolet, Peter Lukas Graf, Michael Scheneider, among others. He studied orchestral conducting with Vincent La Selva and Karoly Kope, and Jazz with Shelton Berg and Ron Carter. He is a founder member of the Estudiantina Juvenil and the Youth Symphony Orchestra of Zulia State. He won the Texas Junior College Competition in 1983. He was sponsored by the Society for the Professional Development of Young Artists of Hannover, Germany.He has been granted important scholarships such as the German Academic Exchange Service and the Fundación Beracasa. He has been principal assistant flutist of the Maracaibo Symphony Orchestra and the National Philharmonic Orchestra, and Municipal Symphony Orchestra of Caracas.As a professor, he has worked at the National Youth Orchestra of Venezuela and taught his course “The art of performing ...
| | Conner, Arlie & Friends Countin' On You CD (2006)
1000 Kilometers CD music
$13.15
Quirky lyrics, fun chord changes. Arlie Conner’s first full length CD is a fine gumbo, from rockin’ blues to bouncy pop, with hints of John Hiatt and Pete Townshend. Between the telecaster sizzles and 12-string jangles are tasty sax and trumpet solos. Beware: the catchy hooks and vocal harmonies can get stuck in your head! Old school with new imagery. Do they sound like the ...
