Born in 1952 in New York City, Ali grew up in a musical family. Her father, Art Ryerson, was a renowned jazz guitarist who got his start with the Paul Whiteman Orchestra; he later became a top studio player in NYC, recording with everyone from Louis Armstrong, Erroll Garner, Charlie Parker, and Sarah Vaughan, to Frank Sinatra. Ali Ryerson has carried on the family tradition, as an international touring\/recording artist, with performances ranging from Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC, to the Blue Note (NYC and Japan). She has released over two dozen albums on major jazz labels. Ryerson's groundbreaking Jazz Flute Big Band's debut CD, Game Changer hit the 'Top 10' on the US Jazz Charts for 6 straight weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"At last(!), here is my first collection of swingin' jazz duets for classical and jazz flutists alike. These cool melodies and groovin' jazz rhythms are sure to transform your flute duet into a real jazz duo! A few tips to achieve that true jazz sound on the flute: try using a bit less vibrato; play with a subtle swing feel (swing 8th notes); use legato tonguing (unless otherwise marked) as your 'default' jazz articulation... I hope you have as much fun playing these jazz duets as I have!\"\u003c\/em\u003e -Ali Ryerson\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Edition Kossack","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46969107546406,"sku":"RY007","price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/3559\/5814\/products\/50000000000RY007.jpg?v=1697521960","url":"https:\/\/www.flute4u.com\/products\/ryerson-a-4-jazz-duets","provider":"Carolyn Nussbaum Music Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
