PJP MIXTAPES: The late piano master Raymond A. King was a musician’s musician, who played in the avant-garde tradition, but had a deep love of Swing and Bebop music. A Philadelphia-bred jazz pianist and self-taught visual artist, King also worked and studied with Los Angeles Jazz legend, Horace Tapscott and enjoyed a long time collaboration with saxophonist Sabir Mateen. As part of our @makemusicphilly events, King performed a moving solo piano extravaganza @jacobsmusiccompany in Philadelphia in June of 2013. We recorded that historic moment and share it with you now.

Happy Black History Month! #Repost @artoflegohn with @repostapp ・・・ #ArtOfLegohn Black History Month highlight by Music director @fundilegohn 🎹🎧🎺🎼 • • • Horace Tapscott is a genius and legendary musician/educator who grew up in Los Angeles from 1936 at Jefferson High school. He was a pillar in the Los Angeles community and was music teacher, band leader, mentor and friend to many artists In 1961 Tapscott formed the Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra, with the aim of preserving, developing and performing African-American music. As his vision grew, this became just one part of a larger organization in 1963, the Underground Musicians Association (UGMA), which later changed name to the Union of God's Musicians and Artists Ascension (UGMAA). • • • #horacetapscott #blackhistorymonth2017 #artoflegohnmusichistory #music #piano #westcoast #losangeles #artists #artistry #texas #tapscott #TheArk #panafrikanpeoplesarkestra

We had the great pleasure of presenting pianist and visual artist, Raymond A. King a few times. He was a participant during our Piano Marathon at Jacobs Music Company in Center City during Make Music Philly back in 2013. He and his quartet was featured in our VSOR television series produced with PhillyCAM and Turtle Studios back in 2015. He also was a featured guest soloist in Lush Life: Philadelphia Celebrates Billy Strayhorn concert at Suzanne Roberts Theater back in 2014. Raymond A. King was not a household Jazz name. He like so many Philly artists, was a musicians' musician. They dramatically define the difference between the terms, "great" and "famous." Raymond A. King was a great one. He was present and in association with artists like Horace Tapscott, Arthur Blythe, Butch Morris, Lester Robertson, Fred Ho and his longtime collaborator, Philly saxophonist saxophonist Sabir Mateen. We have all lost a brilliant artist, elder and teacher. Raymond A. King will be missed, but his music lives on. Rest In Power. To Learn More About Raymond A.
