Total Time: 72:26 ______________________________________________________________________________ Release Notes *Recorded live at Belgrade Jazz Festival, "Dom Sindi ata" concert hall, November, 1975 MUSICIANS: DUSKO GOJKOVIC - trumpet FERDINAND POWEL - tenor sax VINCE BENEDETTI - piano BERT THOMPSON - bass BILLY BROOKS - drums Dus o Goj ovic is one of the world giant of jazz as extraordinary jazz player, a composer, soloist and an orchestra leader. Born in 1931 in Jajce (Bosnia), Dus o Goj ovic (also spelled as Dus o Goy ovich) [trumpet, flugelhorn, composer] studied at the Music Academy in Belgrade from 1948 to 1953. As a youth he played with several jazz and dixie bands, mostly for dancing audiences and eventually on parties at the embassies of the capital. When the 18-year-old joined the Radio Big Band of Belgrade, he was considered a talented young jazz man who also can read music.

When he left the band five years later, he had grown into a fine big band player and featured soloist. Dus o went to Germany where he quic ly became an integral part of its uprising young jazz scene. In 1956 he made his first record as a member of the Fran furt All-Stars. After a short stint in the big band of Munich's Max Greger, Dus o stayed for four and a half years with Kurt Edelhagen's band, then Europe's leading jazz orchestra. Francy Boland, Claus Ogermann, Jerry van Rooyen and Rob Pron were among the arrangers who wor ed for Edelhagen. In addition to being the band's premier trumpet soloist, Dus o performed with such as Stan Getz and Chet Ba er. It came as no surprise when in 1958 he was invited to play with the Newport International Youth Band at the Newport Jazz Festival. Other members of the Newport band included Albert Mangelsdorff, Ronnie Ross, George Gruntz, and Gbor Szbo. Following the performance at Newport, Dus o's trumpet became very popular in Europe. In 1961 the Ber lee School of Music offered the 29-year-old a grant for studying composition and arrangement in Boston where Herb Pomeroy was to become one of his teachers. Loo ing forward to writing his own arrangements for his great love, the big band, Dus o concentrated on his studies at Ber lee so exclusively that he regrettingly turned down offers by Count Basie, Stan Kenton and Benny Goodman to join their bands. While at Ber lee Dus o (now also on flugelhorn) recorded with the Ber lee School Quintet and Orchestra including fellow students such as Gary Burton, Mi e Gibbs, Sadao Watanabe, Steve Marcus, Mi e Noc , and Dave Young. When he had just finished his studies and prepared his return to Germany, Dus o received a call from Canadian bandleader Maynard Ferguson offering him Rolf Ericson's place (who had just left to join Ellington). Of course, Dus o accepted. Ferguson, a virtuoso trumpeter himself, featured him as a second trumpet soloist and even used some of his big band arrangements. When Ferguson's band split in 1964, Dus o joined Woody Herman and stayed with him for a year. It was his wor for Herman that founded Dus o's international reputation as an outstanding big band player and soloist. "Woody Herman encouraged me a lot," Dus o recalls. "He not only accepted my big band charts (with a single exception), but also recorded all of them." The same year Dus o (together with Sal Nistico) left Herman's band and returned to Europe, eager to record his own music. Mal Waldron and Nathan Davis played on his sextet album "Swinging Macedonia" (1966) that emphasized Dus o's personal, Bal an-influenced style. In those years, Dus o - by then a member of the leading league of international jazz artists - also wor ed with Miles

Davis, Dizzy Gillespie, Gerry Mulligan, Clar

Terry, Lee Konitz, Sonny

Rollins, Phil Woods, Du e Jordan, Thad Jones-Mel Lewis, Slide Hampton and many more. He continued his bigband career as a member of the Clar e-Boland Big Band in 1966 that assembled some of the best musicians living in Europe, among them US ex-patriates Benny Bailey, Idrees Sulieman, Johnny Griffin, Sahib Shihab, Jimmy Woode and - of course - Kenny Clar e. The CBBB was probably the finest jazz orchestra of the sixties, but it seldom played for live audiences at all. After his time at Ber lee, Dus o Goy ovich began writing big band charts of all of his compositions and many standard tunes. He has been as ed to play his arrangements with many European big bands, among them Dutch S ymasters and NDR big band. In Munich (where he settled down in 1968) Dus o soon started his own "rehearsal" big band including such as Rolf Ericson, Palle Mi elborg, Rudi Fuesers, Ac van Rooyen, Ferdinand Povel, and Fran St. Peter. Due to the difficulties in organising a European free-lance orchestra, this band bro e up in 1976 and was revived only for some performances in 1981/82. Yet in 1986 Dus o was able to re-found his own orchestra which has been on the scene ever since. In 1993, he also started a much-acclaimed international comebac as a recording artist with his prize-winning CD "Soul Connection" recorded in 1996 featuring Tommy Flanagan, Jimmy Heath, Eddie Gomez and Mic ey Ro er. Soul Connection was followed by "Bebop City" which featured young alto sax wizard Abraham Burton, Kenny Barron on Piano, Ray Drummond on bass and Alvin Queen on drums. 1996 saw the fullfillment of a long stanbding wish for Dus o: the recording of his own big band playing his music, "Bal an Connection". 1997 saw the release of the 2-CD set "Bal an Blue", another high point in his career. Disc One features a wonderfully relaxed quintet with

Palle Mi leborg ( who had done a similar piece of wor for Miles Davis ). Bal an Blue evo es strong memories of Miles Davis wor with Gil Evans - a seminal recording of our days. His next album was In My Dreams (2001) recorded with his quartet. In 2003 Goj ovic opened a new chapter in his career with his album Samba do Mar, in which he composes for the first time inspired by Latin music. In 2004 he performed on the 200th anniversary of modern Serbian statehood, the opportunity he used to gather in Belgrade international All Star Big Bend with whom he recorded A Handful of Soul CD. His last album Samba Tzigane came out in 2006. Goj ovic celebrated his 75th birthday with a grand concert in Belgrade. During his career Goj ovic built his own style recognizable for the

Italian master saxophonist Gianni Basso and Disc Two is an extended wor performed by the NDR Philharmonic with a jazz rhythm section and Dus o Goy ovich as soloist. His compositions arranged by

preciseness, brilliance of his technique and warm sound in playing as well as melodic tunes in composing.
