Update on the last six months

3/5/2015

Hi everyone!

It's been a while since I posted anything, so I just wanted to fill everyone in on what's been happening. I've been super busy with a whole bunch of musical projects. Last semester was my first semester at Juilliard, and I've been having a blast playing with the amazing musicians there, and studying with Frank Kimbrough. Last semester we played a concert of mostly bebop music, and this semester we are putting on a show featuring the music of Jelly Roll Morton, which is very exciting for me. That show will be on April 13th at Paul Hall, and tickets are free, so definitely get tickets now if you want to come!

I've also been playing with some great musicians at Columbia University, where I also attend. This past semester was the first semester of the Jazz House at Columbia University, something I started at Columbia to bring more jazz to the Columbia community, and it has been a great experience. In addition to a number of other concerts, in November, we hosted our first guest artist when legendary alto saxophonist Jerry Dodgion came to play with us. For those of you who do not know Mr. Dodgion's music, he was the lead alto saxophonist in the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra for a long time, and has played with more jazz luminaries than could be listed here. It was a real privilege to play with him, and I can't wait to see who we bring in this semester.

There's been a lot of great music in the works outside of school as well! I will post again when some of these projects come to fruition, but in the meantime, check out the show schedule to the right, and on the "Schedule" tab. I hope to see some of you at one of my upcoming shows!

ben Rosenblum

Pianist, accordionist and composer Ben Rosenblum has traversed a truly unique musical path, one that has seen him perform alongside world-class musicians across more than twenty music genres and twenty-five countries, lead bands at prestigious venues across the world, all while maintaining a signature, melodic musical voice. Rosenblum’s journey has taken him on tours with Grammy-winning pop artist Rickie Lee Jones, Grammy-winning jazz vocalist Catherine Russell and Juno-winning contemporary Indian singer Kiran Ahluwalia. He’s played Brazilian choro with Ephrat Asherie Dance and Brazilian forró with The Late Night Show’s Nêgah Santos and famed forró band Forró in the Dark. His roots in jazz have led to an over ten-year relationship with Grammy-winning bassist Curtis Lundy, performing at festivals alongside jazz luminaries Bobby Watson, Sean Jones and Warren Wolf. He has appeared with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra on accordion, and as a guest soloist on piano at Carnegie Hall’s Stern-Perelman Auditorium with Maestro Reona Ito’s New York Harmonic Band. Throughout it all, Rosenblum has always maintained the same priority - to tell a compelling story with his music, reaching the hearts of his audience and connecting on an emotional, intellectual and spiritual level.

Rosenblum brings this wealth and diversity of experiences to his projects as a leader, overseeing a full tour schedule as a solo artist, with his trio and most recently, with his six-piece ensemble, the Nebula Project. Since his first album as a leader, Instead (4 stars, Downbeat Magazine), he has since released four follow-up records to critical acclaim, including favorable reviews in almost every major jazz publication (Downbeat, All About Jazz, Jazziz, JazzTimes, JazzEd, NYC Jazz Record, JazzLife Japan and many more). Across multiple tours in Japan, Europe, Canada and the United States, Rosenblum has brought his bands to perform at some of the world’s most respected music venues, including Ravinia, Kuumbwa Jazz Center, the Library of Congress, AngraJazz (Terceira Island), Bird’s Eye (Basel) and Yokohama’s Himawari-No-Sato Concert Hall. At any given show, Rosenblum might draw on influences from ten or more countries, with interests going beyond jazz to include various music traditions from South America, Eastern Europe, Ireland, India, the Caribbean and the Middle East.

how many dumpsters to demo a house link

Demolishing a house requires careful planning, especially when estimating debris and waste management needs for the project. A common question homeowners ask is how many dumpsters to demo a house when preparing for a full teardown. The answer depends on the size of the structure, materials used, and whether recycling is involved. Typically, multiple large dumpsters are needed, and consulting a contractor can help ensure you don’t underestimate the volume of debris generated.
