Кристиан СкоттКристиан Скотт (Christian Scott; р. 31 марта 1983, Новый Орлеан, штат Луизиана) — американский джазовый исполнитель. Обладатель премии Эдисона в 2010 году (лучший международный джазовый исполнитель), также был номинирован на премию Грэмми как лучший джазовый трубач. Композитор и продюсер. Впервые о нём упоминается в журнале JazzTimes, где он был назван «архитектором нового коммерчески успешного джаз-фьюжна» и «молодым Богом джаза».
Начиная с 2006 года выпустил более дюжины студийных сольных альбомов, несколько записей живых выступлений, участвовал в десятках коллабораций. Знаменит использованием в своей игре глухих тонов, что он называет «искусством шептания». Особенностью игры Кристиана является «приглушение» тонов и подчеркивание дыхание с помощью вибраций в мундштуке. Пытаясь добиться нужного ему звучания, он преднамеренно игнорировал все наставления своих учителей и советы, данные в учебниках. Сам он говорит вот что: «Трудно сказать из чего именно сложилось моё звучание. Много разных вещей повлияли на него. Я всегда хотел звучать по-особенному, не так, как другие. Майлс Дэвис и Диззи Гиллеспи так повлияли на своё поколение только потому, что до них так не играл никто...»
Кристиан Скотт и его брат-близнец Кайл родились 31 марта 1983 года в Новом Орлеане, штат Луизиана. Отец — Клинтон Скотт Третий, мать — Кара Харрисон.
Первое время образованием Скотта занималась его мать. Но через некоторое время его дядя Дональд Харрисон, распознав его талант, взял эту роль на себя. В 14 лет он поступает в школу искусств Нового Орлеана на джазовое отделение. С отличием оканчивая её, он перебирается в Бостон, чтобы продолжить обучение в знаменитом колледже Беркли. Освоив пятилетнюю программу за три года, Скотт становится профессиональным композитором музыки для фильмов. За время обучения он создаёт свою собственную группу, активно гастролирует с дядей и записывает первый сольный демо-альбом.
Во время презентации своей первой пластинки в музыкальном магазине Скотт налаживает контакт с представителем Concord Records, который предлагает, будучи под впечатлением от услышанного, записать Кристиану альбом под руководством Concord Music Group. Кристиан подписывает контракт и выпускает в 2006 году альбом «Rewind That» («Перемотай это»). Billboard незамедлительно помещают его на обложку свежего номера с пометкой «достоин внимания». Дебютный альбом отличался небывалым до этого смешением джаза, рок-н-ролла, R&B и многих других стилей. Критики не могли найти слов, чтобы точно описать этот «коктейль музыкальных влияний».
В перерывах между гастролями, а чаще всего и во время гастролей, Кристиан встречается с начинающими музыкантами по всем соединённым штатам. На этих встречах он даёт мастер-класс игры на трубе, делится своими познаниями в музыкальном бизнесе и жизненным опытом. Кроме того, он активно участвует в сборе средств для различных благотворительных организаций. https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Скотт,_Кристиан

Christian Scott aTunde AdjuahChristian Scott, also known as Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah (born March 31, 1983, in New Orleans, Louisiana) is a two-time Edison Award winning and Grammy Award nominated trumpeter, composer and producer. He is the nephew of jazz innovator and legendary sax man, Donald Harrison, Jr. His musical tutelage began under the direction of his uncle at the age of thirteen. After graduating from the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts (NOCCA) in 2001, Christian received a full tuition scholarship to Berklee College of Music where he earned a degree in professional music and film scoring thirty months later.
Since 2002, Christian has released eleven critically acclaimed studio recordings, two live albums and one greatest hits collection. According to NPR, "Christian Scott ushers in new era of jazz". He has been heralded by JazzTimes Magazine as "Jazz's young style God." Christian is known for developing the harmonic convention known as the “forecasting cell” and for his use of an un-voiced tone in his playing, emphasizing breath over vibration at the mouthpiece. The technique is known as his “whisper technique.”
Christian is the progenitor of “Stretch Music,” a jazz rooted, genre blind musical form that attempts to “stretch” jazz’s rhythmic, melodic and harmonic conventions to encompass as many other musical forms, languages and cultures as possible. Jazz is a progressive musical movement and Christian is at the forefront of its continued viability as an art form. Christian’s 2015 release, Stretch Music, marked the partnership between Christian’s Stretch Music record label and Ropeadope Records. Critics and fans alike have praised the recording. Stretch Music is also the first recording to have an accompanying app, for which Christian won the prestigious JazzFM Innovator of the year Award in 2016. The Stretch Music App is an interactive music player that allows musicians the ability to completely control their practicing, listening and learning experience by customizing the player to fit their specific needs and goals.
In 2017, Christian released three albums, collectively titled The Centennial Trilogy, that debuted at number one on iTunes. The albums’ launch commemorated the 100th anniversary of the first Jazz recordings of 1917. The series is, at its core, a sobering re-evaluation of the social political realities of the world through sound. It speaks to a litany of issues that continue to plague the collective human experience, such as slavery in America via the Prison Industrial Complex, food insecurity, xenophobia, immigration, climate change, sexual orientation and gender inequality, fascism and the return of the demagogue.
The first release in the trilogy, Ruler Rebel, vividly depicts Adjuah's new vision and sound - revealing Adjuah to the listener in a way never heard before via a completely new production methodology that stretches trap music with West African and New Orleanian Black Indian masking tradition musical styles. Ruler Rebel’s release coincided with the first annual Stretch Music Festival at Harlem Stage in New York. The Stretch Music Festival, created and curated by Christian, explores the boundaries of Stretch, Jazz, Trap, and Alternative Rock with some of music’s most poised and fiery rising stars. The sold-out performances were met with praise from both music critics and fans. The second release, Diaspora, was showcased during Adjuah’s sold-out Carnegie Hall performance in 2017. The third release, Emancipation Procrastination, launched in September 2017 during NPR’s global Jazz Night in America broadcast from New Orleans.
Christian scored his identical twin brother’s and Director’s Guild of America 2015 Student Award recipient, writer-director and Spike Lee protégé, Kiel Adrian Scott’s, recent Student Academy Award nominated film, Samaria. Christian also scored Kiel’s award-winning film, The Roe Effect. He will also score Kiel’s feature length directorial debut, slated for production late 2018.
In addition to scoring documentaries for Hennessy Cognac and others, in 2017, Christian has scored commercials for Tag Heuer watch makers and The Gap clothing company, as well as music for ESPN’s Sports Center. Christian has also recently completed a music project, in which he served as leader, in conjunction with 1800 Tequila and Billboard Magazine called The Refined Player’s Series.
Since 2006, Christian has worked with a number of notable artists, including Prince, Radiohead’s Thom Yorke, McCoy Tyner, Marcus Miller, Eddie Palmieri, rappers Mos Def (Yasin Bey), Talib Kweli, and Vic Mensa, as well as heralded poet and musician Saul Williams.
Additionally, through his partnership with Adam’s Instruments, Christian designed a signature line of horns, the Siren Trumpet, Sirenette and Reverse Flugelhorn that are revolutionizing brass instrument design all over the world. Domestic production of Christian’s proprietary reverse flugelhorn will begin in 2018.
Christian is a scion of New Orleans’ first family of art and culture, the Harrisons, and the grandson of legendary Big Chief, Donald Harrison Sr., who lead four nations in the City’s masking tradition. The HBO series, Treme, borrowed the name “Guardians of the Flame” from African-American cultural group Scott began “masking” as a member of with his grandfather in 1989. Christian recently became the Chief of The Brave, in February 2017, one his grandfather’s early banners. In 2018, Tulane University’s acclaimed Amistad Research Center announced its archive of the Donald Harrison, Sr. legacy papers to highlight the Harrison/Scott/Nelson family’s contributions to the arts, activism, and African diaspora cultural expressions. The Harrison family’s story has been documented by Oscar winning director, the late Jonathan Demme, in his post-Hurricane Katrina works.
Christian is dedicated to a number of causes that positively impact communities. He gives his time and talents in service to several organizations which garnered him a place in Ebony Magazine’s 30 Young Leaders Under 30. He has provided his services to Each One, Save One, NO/AIDS Task Force, Girls First, The Mardi Gras Indian Hall of Fame, Good Work Network and numerous other community service organizations. Holding master classes, creating and participating in discussion panels, and purchasing and giving away instruments, are all part of Christian’s community based work. He has worked with Guardians Institute in New Orleans’ 9th Ward, which is dedicated to reading and fiscal literacy, cultural retention and a firm commitment to the participation of community elders and artists in uplifting and supporting youths in underserved areas of New Orleans. Christian currently sits on the Boards of Guardians Institute and The NOCCA Institute. Since Christian’s emergence on the jazz music scene, he has been a passionate and vocal proponent of human rights and an unflinching critic of injustices throughout the world. http://www.christianscott.tv/stretchmusicbio
Об альбоме (англ.) | About Album (en)
Info for Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah's Stretch MusicStretch Music (Introducing Elena Pinderhughes) is a studio album by American jazz trumpeter Christian Scott released on September 18, 2015 by Ropeadope Records. This is his fifth full-length studio album as a leader.
Scott explains that his concept of stretch music (or "forecasting cells" in his liners) is an approach to create a more absorbent and sensitive kind of jazz. The concept fully understands and respects the jazz traditions that came before and doesn't attempt to replace them, instead trying to embrace within its rhythmic and harmonic frameworks as many musical forms and cultural languages as possible. "We are attempting to stretch—not replace—jazz's rhythmic, melodic and harmonic conventions to encompass as many musical forms/languages/cultures as we can," he says on his website. He started exploring this approach on his 2010 album Yesterday You Said Tomorrow. His next albums Christian aTunde Adjuah and Stretch Music are thoughtful extensions of that trend.
Carter Moon of XFDR Magazine stated "What Scott did best on this album was choose the right percussionists to play along with him. Corey Fonville and Joe Dyson Jr. consistently lay down a fantastic breakbeat backbone on every track to lend the vibrancy and immediacy of great hip hop. The explosion of hip hop-inspired contemporary jazz has started interesting conversations in both genres. Hip hop is often thought of as being lowbrow music, but its recent fraternization with jazz has drawn out the sheer musical intuition that makes the genre so effective. Conversely, hip hop gives jazz a looser and less intellectual feeling – it’s music that’s actually fun to listen to that comes as much from the heart and the gut as the head. Christian Scott fits perfectly in this new merging of genres, and it’s exciting to imagine him collaborating with any of the Brainfeeder artists and exploring work with rappers. Even if he never comes in direct contact with these parts of the musical world, Stretch Music is an exciting enough of a contribution to be more than enough."
Nathan Stevens of Spectrum Culture wrote "Stretch Music might be the most appropriate title for an album this year. The genre in question here is jazz, but it’s stretched and mutated at all different angles and sides, stretched to its limits. Of course, that’s not surprising when the man behind the stretching has a few Edison awards kicking around his house and education from the Berklee College of Music. That doesn’t sell Christian Scott in quite the right way, though. It makes his work sound a bit too academic and sterile and, rest assured, it ain’t that. The trumpet master’s fluttering approach to jazz devours textures from hip-hop just as easily as it samples from Latin grooves." Larry Blumenfeld of Wall Street Journal commented "Mr. Adjuah has a way with melody and drama. Yet the most captivating aspect is the degree to which this music sounds like a conversation among the nine musicians in his band (plus, on some tracks, two guests)—not simply calls-and-responses, but more so ideas considered and traded with due care in real time". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stretch_Music
