Didier Lockwood has had a diverse career, ranging from fusion to swing and advanced hard bop. In the 1980s he was considered the next
in a line of great French violinists after Stephane Grappelli and
Jean-Luc Ponty but he has maintained a fairly low profile in the 1990s.
Lockwood began studying violin when he was six. Ten years later he
stopped his formal training and joined a rock group. He played in Paris
with Aldo Romano and Daniel Humair among others, met Grappelli and
toured with him. He had a fusion group called Surya and recorded with
Tony Williams around the same period of time (1979). Didier
Lockwood played in the United States on several occasions in the 1980s
and recorded an acoustic album in 1986 with fellow violinists John
Blake and Michal Urbaniak. ~ Scott Yanow |
Well, in fact Jazz Club is not the only place where you can go and listen good Jazz music. In fact David's Jazz Club still remains the best place in Tbilisi to go for
Dancing. So... thanks that lovely face (look at left), she is Tamuna, you will enjoy dancing all night long... well may be not ALL NIGHT LONG, but till 2:30 AM at
least. By the way if you want to order your music, you can do that but make sure to be 1000% polite, cause Tamuna just only seems that kind ;)))) So... still do
not know where to go tonight? Sure it's JC... See you there...
- Pianist Petrucciani has made a strong impact in the jazz world. At age 15, he was playing
with Kenny Clarke and doing guest stints with Clark Terry. He toured France in the early
80s, following a visit to New York, and moved full-time to America in 1982. He was part
of Charles Lloyd's comeback band in 1982, recording and touring Europe with him, then
made a heralded appearance at the Kool Jazz Festival in 1984. He subsequently recorded
with Wayne Shorter, Jim Hall, and Lloyd, and cut many albums as a leader. Petrucciani is
an accomplished technician whose solos show a masterfly harmonic talent.
