American Songbook I Note on the Program

Creating New Music the Mosaic WayBy Sherrie Tucker

Mosaic—an artistic work composed of many distinct components, eachselected and placed in dynamic relation to the others, with no piece, ortessera, obscured by another. The same pieces might be rearranged, orcombined with others, to create different works. Each piece, and eachassemblage, retains its own integrity.

This evening’s program emerged from an extended set of works conceivedas The Mosaic Project by Terri Lyne Carrington. It’s easy to assume that“mosaic” here refers to the artistic and cultural diversity of the 21 womenwho appeared on the Grammy-winning first release by that name (2011).The album’s artwork featured a photo collage of the project’s artists, includ-ing pianists Geri Allen and Patrice Rushen; reeds players Anat Cohen andTineke Postma; trumpeter Ingrid Jensen, percussionist Sheila E, bassistEsperanza Spalding; and vocalists Dee Dee Bridgewater, Nona Hendryx,Dianne Reeves, Cassandra Wilson, and many more. Carrington’s presenta-tion of personnel was refreshing in a world where women jazz musiciansalways contributed to the music, but were long ignored or forgotten, tok-enized as exceptions, or perceived as novelties. In emphasizing mutualrespect among distinguished and well-respected players, Carrington loos-ened the grout around stuck notions of “women’s place” in (and mostlyout of) jazz, and emphasized a vision of mature collaboration that usuallygets reserved for ensembles of men.

In listening further, it appears that Carrington’s decision to make TheMosaic Project with other outstanding women artists was not the only, oreven primary, concept driving the project. In the first album, as well as inthe more R&B and soul-inflected follow-up, Mosaic Project: Love and Soul(this one with over 40 women musicians), she adopts the mosaic artist’sapproach of pulling apart and artistically resetting components into newworks. As a jazz drummer, Carrington had already been reworking patternsto say something new for many decades. Each arrangement, each perfor-mance, each juxtaposition comprises a mosaic in a larger project. Alongthe way, she shakes loose familiar performance tropes, genre silos, andsong styles. Freed from old patterns, the elements float, and soar, andinteract in surprising new ways. Love songs sit next to freedom songs,songs of mourning edge on songs of celebration. The aesthetic is one ofwelcome contrasts that invite active and joyful listening.

The Mosaic Project offers new patterns for presenting and understandingjazz. Old routines of linear torch-passing and all-star jams give way tomusical exchanges among many great artists that emphasize interconnec-tions of listening and sounding differently together.

Note on the Program

American Songbook I Note on the Program

A hallmark of The Mosaic Project is its respectful inclusion of many strongwomen singers, giving lie to the sexist and racist stereotypes unfairly hurledprimarily at black women singers as divas unwilling to share the mic. Of the60-plus artists on the two albums, over 22 sing (some, like Carrington andSpalding, are both instrumentalists and vocalists); Valerie Simpson and OletaAdams are two of the 12 featured vocalists on Love and Soul. Another ofCarrington’s skills is to program a set of arrangements with different vocalistsin a way that sounds like a larger whole, not a showcase or mixtape.

What does The Mosaic Project contribute to American song? For one thing,Carrington is a masterful arranger with many musical influences spanningstraight-ahead jazz, R&B, soul, pop, hip-hop, and beyond. For another,Carrington contributes new songs; she wrote or co-wrote half of the 12 songson the Love and Soul album. And she treats already great songs in surprisingnew ways that maintain the integrity of both versions. I find myself re-lovingwhat I loved before in Duke Ellington’s wistful “Come Sunday,” while at thesame time delighting in the energy and joy brought forth by Carrington’smosaic of rapid rhythm changes and shimmering guitars, the soulful alto saxinvocation by Tia Fuller, and the lush, soaring voice of the late Natalie Cole.

The greatest praise for Carrington’s arrangements comes from songwriterSimpson, who said of the new arrangement of “Somebody Told a Lie” (a songshe co-authored with the late Nick Ashford), “She gave it another treatment—and that’s what a songwriter wants. It already exists in its old form, so why dothat again? She took it to a whole new place.”

TRACY LOVE

American Songbook I Meet the Artists

With her late husband NickolasAshford, Valerie Simpson becameone of the most prolific and versatilemusical couples in recording history.Combining skills as performers, song-writers, and producers, they createdan unprecedented catalog of chart-topping hit singles and albums, col-lecting 22 gold and platinum recordsand more than 50 ASCAP Awards.

The couple met in 1964 at the WhiteRock Baptist Church in New York

City. Ashford had come to New York to pursue a dance career; Ms. Simpsonwas playing piano and singing with the church’s choir. He joined the choir andthe two began writing pop songs for fun.

As staff songwriters for Scepter Records, Ashford & Simpson wrote RayCharles’s classic “Let’s Go Get Stoned” in 1964, which brought them to theattention of Motown, where the duo wrote their second smash, “Ain’t NoMountain High Enough,” for Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell. Other Gaye/Terrell hits followed, including “Your Precious Love,” “Ain’t Nothing Like theReal Thing,” and “You’re All I Need to Get By.”

Ashford & Simpson signed with Warner Brothers in 1973 as recording artistsand recorded eight albums, four of which went gold. Their numerous hit sin-gles include “Send It,” “Found a Cure,” “Don’t Cost You Nothing,” “It Seemsto Hang On,” and “Love Don’t Make It Right.” In addition to their own grow-ing catalog of songs, Ashford & Simpson wrote and produced for Ben E. King,Chaka Khan, Gladys Knight and the Pips, and Quincy Jones. They rewrote aversion of “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” for Diana Ross that became aNo. 1 single. In the ’80s, Ashford & Simpson signed with Capitol Records, andtheir hit “Solid as a Rock” became a signature song. They also wrote thesmash hit “I’m Every Woman,” recorded by Whitney Houston.
