Send us a textGood friend and exceptional music educator Steve Sveum joins us this week for a great conversation about his start in music as well as some very special mentors like Bernie Powers, Ron Carter, and more. We talk Jazz at Lincoln Center, Birch Creek Arts Camp, Essentially Ellington, Snug Harbor, Bacon Happy Hour, and even kitchen remodeling. Steve offers great insight into the essence of swing and some special memories of the late Ron Carter. Despite Peter talking into pillows, Phil talking into his microphone, and Chris talking to himself, this is an episode you will not want to miss. Show Notes:Learn more about:Steve SveumEssentially Ellington Jazz ProgramBirch Creek Arts CampRecording CreditsLive from the 2018 Essentially Ellington High School Jazz Band Competition and Festival, it's Sun Prairie High School from Sun Prairie, WI playing Duke Ellington's "Cottontail." https://youtu.be/qKDIpod2mOw?si=AXqEUb2tEefNRniCRonald Carter - 2009 NIU Board of Trustees Professor-Northern Illinois Huskies  https://youtu.be/-w-_EMgM1os?si=ZLHuq77mAu0mG5InFrank Sinatra performing “Fly Me To The Moon,” recorded live in 1965 at the Kiel Opera House in St. Louis, MO. https://youtu.be/Y2rDb4Ur2dw?si=fVftNseU18IrJM9_Want to find out more about the Beyond The Notes Festival or ComMission Possible Project?
