@darcyjamesargue Cool ad

Friday, Feb. 17 in Riga, at the Jāzeps Vītols Latvian Academy of Music, I’ll be leading a concert of my music performed by the Latvian Academy of Music bigband. It’s wonderful to be here in Latvia working with these talented young musicians.

@jasonkingsays @USCThornton Congratulations Dean King, Welcome!

@darcyjamesargue @mihohazama @AlanPierson @jimmymacx @JohnClaytonbass @LacketyLac @debreved Hi all, my go-to’s @MaestroMuti for his poise, deep knowledge of the repertoire and solfeggio badassery. @TCurrentzis for his ease on the podium but EPIC storytelling. Check out his Rameau and Stravinsky recordings.

I’ll take the liberty of tagging @mihohazama, @AlanPierson, @jimmymacx, @vmendozajazz, @JohnClaytonbass, @LacketyLac, and @debreved — I’m always interested in which conductors top-tier conductors like to watch!

Musicians of Twitter, Who is your favorite conductor to perform under? (any style: classical/new music, jazz, Broadway, film, etc.) Who is your favorite conductor to rehearse under? Who is your favorite conductor to watch as an audience member?

@allenaustinbis2 @WBGO Good call

@SparksAnthony @USCSDA @USCedu Go Anita!

@NormanCharles66 @alisonmartino Thank you for posting that!

@alisonmartino Oh, of course. Most 60s sitcoms were filmed in L.A. It's just surprising that the producers would use such an easily-identifiable L.A. restaurant for a show set in & around New York. Everyone in L.A. who watched that episode must have been like, "Hey, wait a second..."

Spinning @bluenoterecords Minor Move, Tina Brooks. Recorded in 1958, but only released in 1980 - this was Brooks’ first bandleader Blue Note recording. Love the whole album, “Nutville” features Morgan’s signature style and a wonderful tenor sax solo from Brooks. #28records28days
