Stanley Sagov
I grew up as a privileged white Jewish Boy in South Africa during the apartheid era.I have played and loved jazz from my teens till now in my mid 60''s when I find myself recording the album in Massachusetts,https://www.tradebit.com South Africa, jazz musicians flouted the color bar and used music as a bridge.
I experience playing with my beloved Jazz musicians as creating,expressing and being a picture of how I imagine the universe can be at it''s big-hearted best. A blend of rigor,freedom,individual striving,sacrificial group mutuality,public love making built on our private musical self-knowledge and instrumental mastery.
Every one of these hand picked musicians came to the Club 39 studio to make soething true and beautiful,funky and mutual.
We listened to each other drawing on our inspirational ancestors of the African Jazz tradition and the moment of our communion in that studio.
So now I offer it to you,our audience of listeners who will allow us to complete the circle.

"I basically learned on the bandstand. I got called for these gigs that I shouldn''t have taken, I suppose, looking back. People just proceeded to shout and scream at me, and that''s how I learned. Piecing things together. So when I teach it''s the same thing. A student walks in, I teach them the tune, and—bang—we''re off. It''s pretty much playing all the time. Once we get into it there''s sheets and things like that, but it''s mainly playing and then talking about concepts. To me, it''s the best kind of learning. You learn fast.
"I want them out there working and playing actively, the sooner the better. If they have problems, they can always come back to me with them. But my goal, more than showing them a lot of different stuff, is to get there out there so they can experience performing in a professional setting. I never think it''s too soon to do that. You''re never really ready. You''ve just got to dive in and hope for the best. You''re going to sweat; you''re going to get scared, but you don''t learn if you''re playing with people who are less than you. I''ve been thrust into situations—I don''t even know how I got into them—that were way above me. But that kind of pulls you up. You sink or swim.
"When I''m on the road, a lot of my students come to my gigs. We hang out; it''s kind of loose. The great thing is that they''re pretty flexible, so I can make up lessons at any time. Even twelve o''clock at night sometimes. It''s crazy, but it works. Some want more structure, but some like the off-the-wall stuff."
