Scott DuBois - "Late Morning Snow" from the SCOTT DUBOIS QUARTET LIVE IN MUNICH Concert Film

1/30/2018

 
Music composed by Scott DuBois

Scott DuBois Quartet:

Scott DuBois / guitar
Gebhard Ullmann / tenor sax
Thomas Morgan / bass
Kresten Osgood / drums

Performed live at Jazzclub Unterfahrt in Munich, Germany on March 3, 2016

From DuBois' WINTER LIGHT studio album liner notes: 

Ralph Waldo Emerson called art an “expression of nature.” WINTER LIGHT transports the listener on a day’s journey from earliest dawn into deepest night, illustrating the day’s changing light through varied landscapes and weather conditions.  I have loved representations of this evolution in visual art, especially in the paintings of Claude Monet, who often worked on several canvases at once in order to track the day's shifting light. WINTER LIGHT captures such visions in sound.   
​
"Late Morning Snow" conveys the elegance and peaceful nature of light on newly fallen snow. A progressively cold stinging wind rises.

R.I.P. Dan Voll

1/22/2018

 
R.I.P. to my first real guitar teacher, Dan Voll. I was about 10 or 11 years old when I started studying with him.  What a wonderful musician, a great teacher and a beautiful human being.  You had a huge influence on my life, Dan.  I'm forever grateful for this.  I saw you in August in NYC and your beautiful soul was shining in your eyes.  Thank you for everything.

"Early Morning Forest" introduces a stately pine forest soon pierced by rays of light dazzling snow-filled branches and the white forest floor.  Animals call one another to enter the mass of trees.  Deeper in the forest, in the darker thick brush, an ominous cold mist fills the air. The animals call again after slowly emerging from the forest into the warmth of the unobstructed morning sun. 

Great review of AUTUMN WIND from Spain's El Debate de Hoy!

1/16/2018

 
AUTUMN WIND has received a great review from Spain's El Debate de Hoy!:

"Scott DuBois has produced some of the best albums of our time based on painting landscapes and recreating environments with the brushes of music...Environments, images and sensations evoked with pride through the most complex harmonic and contrapuntal resources of programmatic music...formal perfection...perhaps the most wonderful and beautiful piece of jazz of the year 2017."

Scott DuBois - "First Light Tundra" from the SCOTT DUBOIS QUARTET LIVE IN MUNICH Concert Film

​
"First Light Tundra" opens with the earliest glimpse of light over a cold, desolate landscape as birds awake, call, and fly off into the distance. In a battle between darkness and light, fierce crashing winds obscure the approaching sunrise with flying snow.  The sun triumphs in the end.
