David Friedman is the first international guest ever to visit Jim's Lower Lounge. David is a vibraphonist, percussionist and composer based in Berlin, Germany. He studied percussion at The Julliard School in New York during the 1960s, and went on to perform with Wayne Shorter, Horace Silver and Joe Chambers during the 1970s. He currently performs throughout Europe and around the world with his own project, Generations Trio, as well as in a duo with Germantown-based vibraphonist Tony Miceli. Today, David discusses differences between the jazz scenes in New York and Berlin, as well as the evolutions of art and culture that he has observed in Berlin throughout the last thirty years.Find David Friedman:david-friedman.demalletmuserecords.comFeatured music:David Friedman Generations Trio. “Thursday Lines (Live).”YouTube, 2018. youtu.be/JB7dWeoh_8g.Double Image. “In Lands I Never Saw.”In Lands I Never Saw, Celestial Harmonies, 1986.Tony Miceli & David Friedman. “Minority.”4,042 Miles, Hit the Bar Records, 2015.Photo: mhamiltonvisuals.com Recorded August 2018 Hosted by Thomas HagenProduced by Jim Hamilton, Tyler Ripley and Thomas Hagen
