Notes on the Programby Phil Gallo

Eight months after the May 2013 releaseof his spirityouall album, Bobby McFerrinhas opened his program of spirituals toimprovisation, reinvention, and influencesfrom the secular world. “Joshua” is nowperformed faster than the album version,more a stomp. New vocal harmonies havebeen added to “25:15,” which McFerrinsays increase the number’s intensity andmakes it more central to the show. Songsfrom Blind Faith, Marvin Gaye, and theBeatles have found their way into sets, ashave songs from the bebop canon. “We gowhere the spirit takes us,” McFerrin says.“Our relationship to the tunes gets deeperand deeper as we play them for audiences.”

As with all of his projects, McFerrin devel-oped spirityouall with Linda Goldstein, hisproducer-manager since 1979, and broughtin Gil Goldstein—they are not related—asarranger and co-producer. Obviously, jazz,classical, and African music were in theforeground of the project, though McFerrinwanted to keep the door open to allow forelements of bluegrass, country, folk, rock,and blues.

“We talked about keeping a loose, improvi-sational feel,” McFerrin recalls, “and someof the arrangements changed duringrecording. I think we were clear about thesound we wanted, and we had musicianswhose creativity and input we welcomed,so it felt very natural.”

Among Linda Goldstein’s suggestions wasBob Dylan’s “I Shall Be Released,” a songthat McFerrin immediately embraced. Hedid not listen to the original recordingbefore doing his own interpretation, fearfulof adapting Dylan’s singing style. “I’m stillnot sure if I’m singing the melody exactlyright,” he says. “Or if the lyric means thesame things to me it meant to him. But Ilove singing it.”

McFerrin’s last visit to Jazz at LincolnCenter—three season-opening concerts inSeptember 2012—found the singerexploring a personal repertoire created asan autobiography. The music of CharlieParker, Paul Simon, Sly Stone, and theGershwins shared space with spirituals,Beethoven, and Miles Davis. The New YorkTimes, in its review of that concert, hailedMcFerrin’s “details of phrasing and noteplacement” and the “magical properties”of his voice, specifically “the taut elasticityof timbre and pitch.”

Looking back on those shows, McFerrinpraised the diversity and creativity of theJazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra. “All theprecision and virtuosity anyone could everwant is there, but so is some dirt, somemessiness. I love that,” he says. “I wonderif it’s because of Wynton’s roots in theNew Orleans sound. You can hear theensemble but also each individual.”

The son of two classically trained singers,McFerrin was a multi-instrumentalist whodid not begin to explore singing until he was27. He worked with bands for five yearsbefore taking a shot at unaccompanied solovoice, which had the unlikeliest of results—a No. 1 pop single and a GRAMMY® Award,his first of ten, for Record of the Year.

He promptly turned his back on trying to re-create the magic of the buoyant “Don’tWorry, Be Happy” and resumed exploringhis place in a musical world that allowedhim to incorporate music from all therealms that affected him, including jazz,classical, spirituals, pop music, even moviethemes. He worked with Herbie Hancock,Wayne Shorter, and Chick Corea; JackNicholson and Robin Williams; theorchestras of San Francisco, Chicago,Philadelphia, New York, La Scala, theVienna Philharmonic, and more. spirityouallis his 14th album.

Meet the Artists

For decades, Bobby McFerrin (Vocals) hasblurred the distinction between pop musicand fine art, goofing around barefoot in theworld’s finest concert halls, exploringuncharted vocal territory, inspiring a newgeneration of a cappella singers and thebeatbox movement. His latest album, spirityouall, is a bluesy, feel-good recording,an unexpected move from the music-industry rebel who redefined the role of thehuman voice with his a cappella hit “Don’tWorry, Be Happy,” his collaborations withYo-Yo Ma, Chick Corea, and the ViennaPhilharmonic, his improvising choir Voicestra,and his legendary solo vocal performances.

Since creating that ear-worm of a No. 1hit early in his career, he has continued topursue his iconoclastic musical journey,improvising on national television, singingmelodies without words, spontaneouslyinventing parts for 60,000 choral singers ina stadium in Germany, ignoring boundariesof genre, and defying all expectations.McFerrin began his musical career as apianist at the age of 14. He led his own jazzgroups, studied composition, toured withthe show band for the Ice Follies, andplayed for dance classes.

McFerrin’s history as an instrumentalistand bandleader is key to understanding hisinnovative approach to mapping harmony

and rhythm (as well as melody) with hisvoice. “I can’t sing everything at once,” hesays, “but I can hint at it so the audiencehears even what I don’t sing.” That pioneerspirit and virtuosity have opened doors forsingers, as have McFerrin’s experiments inmulti-tracking his voice. But virtuosity isn’tthe point. “I try not to ‘perform’ onstage,”he says. “I try to sing the way I sing in mykitchen, because I just can’t help myself. Iwant audiences to leave the theatre andsing in their own kitchens the nextmorning. I want to bring audiences into theincredible feeling of joy and freedom I getwhen I sing.“

Gil GoldsteinGil Goldstein (Piano, Electric Piano,Accordion, Music Director and Arranger)was born in Washington D.C. in 1950. Hefound the accordion five years later; it hassince been his favorite instrument. As anarranger his work is not bound by style orgenre, which is why he has been soughtout by adventurous musical seekers suchas Michael Brecker, Paul Simon, DavidSanborn, James Taylor, Pat Metheny, andEsperanza Spalding (for whom he arrangedand produced the award winning ChamberMusic Society project). Internationally hehas worked with the great Anna MariaJopek on her Polanna project; the BraziliansToninho Horta and Romero Lubambo;French masters Juliette Greco and LaikaFatien; Flamenco legends Carles Benaventand Jorge Pardo; and the Cameroonian-born virtuoso Richard Bona. He revived theoriginal Gil Evans arrangements for MilesDavis for the tribute concert conducted byQuincy Jones. He is a disciple of Evans’work, having worked with him from 1982until his death, and strives to carry hislegacy forward. Goldstein is a highly

Dianne ReevesFebruary 14–15 at 8pm“Grandeur with refinement,” The New York Timeswrote, describing the impact of Dianne Reeves’February 2012 performance in Rose Theater. On herreturn to Jazz at Lincoln Center for Valentine’s Day,the four-time GRAMMY® Award winner will demon-strate that no singer is better equipped to captivateand seduce you with songs of love and romance. Herastonishing instrument is a given, but even moreimpressive is her refusal to hide behind it–withnuanced restraint and dynamics, she unfailinglyinhabits every story she spins into song. Reeves isjoined by Peter Martin and Raymond Angry on key-boards, Peter Sprague on guitar, Sean Jones ontrumpet, Tia Fuller on saxophone, Reginald Veal onbass, Terreon Gully on drums, and Nadia Washingtonand Brianna Thomas on vocals.

THE ALLEN ROOM

Joshua Redman QuartetFebruary 7–8 at 7pm & 9:30pmWhether the instrument in question is the tenor orsoprano saxophone, Joshua Redman is one of themost individual voices of his generation. Redman, athematic improviser par excellence, showcases hisextraordinary tone and penchant for creating elegantmelodies within challenging structures and infusingthem with emotional content. Propelling the flow anddetailing the nuances are his working quartet–pianistAaron Goldberg, bassist Reuben Rogers, and drummerGregory Hutchinson–each a long-standing partner.
