Life & Work

  • Bio: Dan was born in Providence, Rhode Island. At the age of 5 he migrated to Narragansett, Rhode Island where his father had built one of the first houses in the north end of town. It wasn't until 5th grade that he began playing alto saxophone at the St. Thomas Moore School in town where he was a member of their first band consisting of just 7 students. As time went by his interest grew and he, like any other musical grade-schooler, made music a part of his everyday life. The influences of the 60's music revolution and especially soul music would turn Dan's ears around and add to his passion.

    At the age of 12 he was invited to perform in the Rhode Island Youth All-State Jazz Band where he played at the world renown Newport Jazz Festival . This was the beginning of a life-long passion to perform, write and produce music. During his high school years he was part of a band called The Pump House Gang that played all Jethro Tull and Roots Blues memorizing tunes from vinyl while self-teaching himself the flute. After high school Dan attended the University of Rhode Island for 2 years where he was the first saxophone major. Previous to that you had to major in clarinet and double on saxophone. During those first two years he began to study with recent Berklee graduate Hal Crook. After Hal started Rhode Island School of Music (RISM) in 1972 Dan attended for 2 years on full scholarship. It was those two intense years of 16 hours a day of music that pushed Dan to a new level. In 1974 the RI agent Kenny O'Brien offered Dan an audition is two bands that needed a sax player at the time "The Beaver Brown" band and the NY based funk band "Back Bay Brew" . It was love at first listen. In 1976 after returning from a two year long tour with that original funk band Back Bay Brew Dan completed his BA degree in Music Education with a minor in Arranging-Composition from The Union Institute in Cincinnati. As part of his degree plan Dan started the first instrumental music program at The Alternate Learning Project, Providence’s alternate high school (ALP) where he lead the ALP band playing funk jazz and a new style of music "hip-hop" for 10 years. Throughout the mid 70's and the early 80’s he continued to perform and teach in Rhode Island and in the North East United States. His love for jazz grew with performances in Jazz Odyssey, a big band that did Monday nights at the famed jazz club Allary in Providence, as well as being a member of the Milestones Quintet which played at Allary regularly in the late 70's. Also during that time Dan continued performing as a sideman with some of the Soul and R&B stars of Atlantic Records and Motown including: Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, Ben E. King, The Four Tops, and The Temptations to name a few. Throughout the 80's Dan continued to teach privately and in the local school systems and music schools in the Southern New England area. In 1981 he became co-owner with David Correia at Celebration Sounds in Pawtucket Rhode Island where he honed his engineering, producing and composing skills for the following 12 years. During that time he recorded and produced his first 5 albums as a leader.

    In 1985 Dan’s recording career was launched with the international release of "Sometime Inside" recorded at Celebration Sounds in Pawtucket. This all original self-produced fusion-jazz recording was released on the Black Hawk Records label of San Francisco. Along with straight-ahead players Stan Getz and Phil Woods Dan became Black Hawk’s “Fusion” act. This first recording truly gave Dan his international profile, which was evident when he was asked to autograph this 1st recording in 1989 after a concert in Yaroslavl, Russia.

    In 1989 Dan traveled to Yaroslavl Russia as part of "The International Arts for Peace" organization. In 1991 Dan won the 2nd annual Phoenix reader poll for "Best Local Jazz" and "Best Local Producer" and in 1992 he won again "Best Local Jazz".

    Jazz Exploded in the early 90's in Providence greatly to do with Dan's efforts.

    The 90's were the Renaissance era in Providence. Dan led the way with the famed Sunday and Monday night series at Amsterdam's on South Main street where there lines outside on the sidewalk to get in even in the winter snows. The Fish Company on Tuesday nights and in addition booking 7 nights of Jazz at The Westin Hotel Jazz Room in Providence, bringing in regional and national talent and playing there with his various groups. It was during this time that Dan was awarded numerous citations from the Governor and House of Representatives in Rhode Island and the Mayor or Providence for his contributions to the music scene and the promotion of jazz in Rhode Island. Some of the Awards he received during that time were: "The State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations" Citation in 1991 from the RI House of Representatives in recognition of is efforts to promote jazz locally and nationally, "The Proclamation from The City of Providence" in 1994 and "The State Proclamation from the Governor in 1994" for the promotion and performance of Jazz in Rhodeisland. For 7 years from 1992-1999 Dan was the artistic director and one of the main performers for "Jazz and Blues at The Pier" and annual free summer festival co-sponsored by the town of Narragansett and Washington Trust Bank. In 1996 Dan was hired as an Assistant Professor at Berklee College of Music in Boston where he is now a Full-Time Professor in Contemporary Writing and Production department.

    In the early 2000’s Dan started the first all-female jazz-rock band at Lincoln School for girls where he remained active for 7 years.

    Throughout his career Dan has toured in the United States, Europe, Africa, Asia and Russia performing and presenting clinics and seminars. His musical influences range from jazz and classical to funk and Latin-jazz and New Orleans grooves. Since the late 70’s, he has performed or recorded with a variety of artists across the musical spectrum. A short list includes: Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Robert Plant, Kid Rock, Dr. John, Cornell Dupree, Jerry Jemmott, The Temptations, Mike Stern, Omar Hakim, Jimmy Cobb, Dave Samuels, Dave Liebman, Marvin Stamm, Nat Adderly, and The Crusaders, Dr. John and Nicholas Payton.

    Dan’s love of all styles of jazz has contributed to his performances in straight-ahead jazz as-well-as Latin, funk and soul. This is evident throughout his current collection of 17 solo recordings. In 2009 Dan was awarded the prestigious MacColl-Johnson Fellowship for Jazz Composers getting a $25, 000 dollar grant through the RI Foundation which enabled him to write and produce a project in 2011 with an Italian traditional orchestra called The Piccola Orchestra La Viola (POLV), bringing together his musical and Italian roots. This CD was released on an Italian label called Dodocilune. In the summer of 2011 Dan returned to Italy to perform a tour in support of the release. The latest CD “Dan Moretti & The Hammond Boys” live at Chan’s was released in 2014 and hit #13 nationally and was on the CMJ radio charts for 20 weeks.

    As stated before Dan has been on the faculty at Berklee College of Music in Boston since 1996 and currently is holding a full time position as Professor in the CWP(Contemporary Writing and Production) department. He was given the school’s “Curriculum Development Award” in 2006 for his popular on-campus course "Groove Writing". He has also been at the forefront of distance learning at Berklee where in 2003 he created the Berklee Online (Berklee's distance-learning school) version of his course called "Arranging Contemporary Styles" and has been teaching this course to students all over the world. In 2012 he converted this same course back to Berklee with one of the first on-line on-campus courses. In 2008, his book "Producing and Mixing Contemporary Jazz" was released on Hal Leonard-Berklee Press. In 2010 Dan collaborated with Matthew Nicholl and Oscar Stagnaro on the book “Essential Grooves” for Sher Music, which is required for all Groove Writing sections at Berklee. In 2012 Dan worked with Tutti Dynamics which develop the first fully interactive multi-camera and multi-track video versions of the styles in the Essential Grooves book. ( www.tuttidynamics.com.) These Tutti grooves are now also being used on campus at Berklee.

    For the last 16 years Dan has been active in Europe and the states performing his music and presenting seminars in Italy, Turkey, England, Belgium, Holland, France, Switzerland, Ireland, Africa, Ecuador and Gibraltar as-well-as being a sideman with artists like Nile Rodgers and Chic. In the summer of 2006 he had the opportunity to perform in the house band at the 40th anniversary of The Montreux Jazz Festival tribute to Atlantic records with Nile Rodgers. This was also a full circle experience being that that’s where it all began for Dan. The performers he played with which included Dan writing charts and backing up were: Robert Plant, Stevie Nicks, Chaka Khan, Kid Rock, George Duke, Solomon Burke, and Steve Winwood.

    On the Educational front Dan has traveled throughout the world doing auditions and clinics for Berklee College of Music in Boston in places like: Kenya, Ecuador, France, and Asia. He was the co-founder of the Gibraltar Jazz Workshops that were introduced in 2012 in Gibraltar. He has presented clinics and done performances at the International Association of Jazz Educators (IAJE) conferences, and The Jazz Educators Network (JEN). In the summer of 2016, with the support of Alex and Ani, Dan initiated the first free summer jazz workshop at Sakonnet Vineyards in Little Compton, RI.

    Dan is a Yamaha and Vandoren artist and can present a diverse set of clinics and seminars including: Master Classes, Improvisation, Ensemble Performance Techniques, Composing, and Producing.

    Dan is a BMI affiliated composer and owner of Morean Music and has an extensive catalog of published music including 2 books and online course and the Tutti Interactive Video platform.

    Dan's technology production skills include: Digital Performer, Pro-tools, Logic, Finale, iMovie, Final Cut Pro, and a variety of other production related software. Dan has been fortunate to have been a bridge between the analog to digital revolution and brings this life experience to all his current work.

DISCOVERY BY MATRIX

Quincy Jones can curate Gilberto Gil. Gil can curate, writers, dancers, filmmakers, painters, record producers, set designers... He can curate Luê Soares of Belém do Pará, behind the mic below. Quincy doesn't have to know Luê exists to help make her discoverable, or anybody else ... it's in the matrix DNA.

The Matrix Mission was Born in Brazil, but It Embraces the Entire World

Brazil is not a European nation. It's not a North American nation. It's not an East Asian nation. It straddles — jungle and desert and dense urban centers — both the equator and the Tropic of Capricorn.

 

Brazil absorbed over ten times the number of enslaved Africans taken to the United States of America, and is a repository of African deities (and their music) now largely forgotten in their lands of origin (Bahia's Bay of All Saints received more enslaved human beings than any other final port-of-call throughout all of human history).

 

Brazil was a refuge (of sorts) for Sephardim fleeing an Inquisition which followed them across the Atlantic (that unofficial symbol of Brazil's national music — the pandeiro — was almost certainly brought to Brazil by these people).

 

Across the parched savannas of the interior of Brazil's culturally fecund nordeste/northeast, where wizard Hermeto Pascoal was born in Lagoa da Canoa (Lagoon of the Canoe) and raised in Olho d'Águia (Eye of the Eagle), much of Brazil's aboriginal population was absorbed into a caboclo/quilombola culture punctuated by the Star of David.

 

Three cultures — from three continents — running for their lives, their confluence forming a scintillatingly unprecedented fourth. Pandeirista on the roof. Nowhere else but here.

 


The matrix is the ultimate evolution of a pathway which began in New York City decades ago per the "rescue" of unpaid royalties, performance & mechanicals, for artists burned by major labels: Aretha Franklin, Barbra Streisand, Mongo Santamaria, Gilberto Gil, Astrud Gilberto, Airto Moreira, Jim Hall, Led Zeppelin, Philip Glass, Clement "Coxsone" Dodd of Kingston's Studio One (Bob Marley's producer; I made a copy of his original contract with Bob to take to CBS Records to argue; Bob was 17 when he signed and his aunt co-signed)...
...Funk Brother Wah Wah Watson (Melvin Ragin) and others. A long and winding road that led inexorably to the necessity of a truly open arts universe, for there is more in Heaven and Earth...

If you're arriving from the Guardian article 10 best music radio stations around the world, →Matrix Radio is here←

The matrix was created above in Salvador's Centro Histórico (interview is with David Dye for U.S. National Public Radio), where Bule Bule around the corner in the clip below, among magisterial colleagues for whom this matrix was originally built (it's now open to all in the Global Creative Economy) sings, "Chegou a hora dessa gente bronzeada mostrar seu valor... The time has come for these bronzed people to show their worth..."

...the endeavor motivated in the first instance by the fact that in common with most cultures around our planet, the preponderance of Brazil's vast cultural treasure has been impossible to find from outside of circumscribed regions, including Brazil itself...

Music & lyrics (Brasil Pandeiro) by Assis Valente of Santo Amaro, Bahia, Brazil. Video by Betão Aguiar of Salvador.

Thus something new under the tropical sun: A means by which those above, those below, and EVERYBODY ELSE in the creative economy can be divulged EVERYWHERE.

For by the seemingly magical mathematics of the small world phenomenon, all in the matrix will tend to proximity to all others, in the same way that most human beings are within some six or so steps of most others.

The difference being that in the matrix, these steps are along pathways that can be travelled. The creative world becomes a neighborhood. Quincy Jones is right up the street and Branford Marsalis around the corner. And the most far-flung genius you've never heard of is just a few doors down. Maybe even in Brazil. Laroyê!
"Matrixado!"

DESCOBERTA POR MATRIX

Quincy Jones pode indicar Gilberto Gil. Gil pode indicar escritores, dançarinos, cineastas, pintores, produtores de discos... Ele pode indicar Luê Soares de Belém do Pará, atrás do microfone abaixo. Quincy não precisa saber que Luê existe para ajudá-la a ser descoberta, ou qualquer outra pessoa ... está no DNA do matrix.

A Missão Matrix Nasceu no Brasil, mas Abraça o Mundo Inteiro

O Brasil não é uma nação européia. Não é uma nação norte-americana. Não é uma nação do leste asiático. Compreende — selva e deserto e centros urbanos densos — tanto o equador quanto o Trópico de Capricórnio.

 

O Brasil absorveu mais de dez vezes o número de africanos escravizados levados para os Estados Unidos da América, e é um repositório de divindades africanas (e sua música) agora em grande parte esquecido em suas terras de origem (a Baía de Todos os Santos recebeu mais seres humanos escravizados do que qualquer outro porto de escala final ao longo de toda a história humana).

 

O Brasil era um refúgio (de certa forma) para os sefarditas que fugiam de uma Inquisição que os seguia através do Atlântico (aquele símbolo não oficial da música nacional brasileira — o pandeiro — foi quase certamente trazido ao Brasil por esse povo).

 

Através das savanas ressequidas do interior do culturalmente fecundo nordeste, onde o mago Hermeto Pascoal nasceu na Lagoa da Canoa e cresceu em Olho d'Águia, uma grande parte da população aborígine do Brasil foi absorvida por uma cultura caboclo/quilombola pontuada pela Estrela de Davi.

 
Três culturas - de três continentes - correndo por suas vidas, sua confluência formando uma quarta cintilante e sem precedentes. Pandeirista no telhado. Em nenhum outro lugar a não ser aqui.

 


O matrix é a evolução definitiva de um caminho que começou em Nova York há décadas atrás pelo "resgate" dos direitos autorais não pagos para Aretha Franklin, Barbra Streisand, Mongo Santamaria, Gilberto Gil, Astrud Gilberto, Airto Moreira, Jim Hall, Led Zeppelin, Philip Glass, Clement "Coxsone" Dodd do Studio One de Kingston (o produtor de Bob Marley; Eu fiz uma cópia de seu contrato original com Bob para levar à CBS Records para discutir; Bob tinha 17 anos quando assinou e sua tia co-assinou)...
...Funk Brother Wah Wah Watson (Melvin Ragin) e outros. Um longo e sinuoso caminho que levou inexoravelmente à necessidade de um universo de artes verdadeiramente aberto, pois há mais no Céu e na Terra...

"Fico muitíssimo feliz em receber seu e-mail! Obrigada por me incluir neste matrix maravilhoso."

Se você está chegando do artigo do jornal britânico The Guardian "10 best music radio stations around the world", →a Rádio Matrix está aqui←

O matrix foi criado no Centro Histórico de Salvador (entrevista é com David Dye para a Rádio Público Nacional dos EUA), onde Bule Bule no clipe abaixo, entre colegas magisteriais para quem este matrix foi originalmente construído (está aberto agora a todos na Economia Criativa Global) canta, "Chegou a hora dessa gente bronzeada mostrar seu valor..."

...o empreendimento motivado na primeira instância pelo fato de que em comum com a maioria das culturas ao redor do nosso planeta, a preponderância do vasto tesouro cultural do Brasil tem sido impossível de encontrar fora de regiões circunscritas, incluindo o próprio Brasil.

Música & letras (Brasil Pandeiro) por Assis Valente de Santo Amaro, Bahia. Vídeo por Betão Aguiar de Salvador.

Assim algo novo sob o sol tropical: Um meio pelo qual os acima, os abaixo e TODOS OS OUTROS na economia criativa podem ser divulgados em TODOS OS LUGARES.

Pela matemática aparentemente mágica do fenômeno do mundo pequeno, todos no matrix tenderão a se aproximar de todos, da mesma forma que a maioria dos seres humanos estão dentro de cerca de seis passos da maioria dos outros.

Com a diferença que no matrix, estes passos estão ao longo de caminhos que podem ser percorridos. O mundo criativo se torna uma vizinhança. Quincy Jones está lá em cima e Branford Marsalis está ao virar da esquina. E o gênio distante que você nunca ouviu falar tá lá embaixo. Talvez até no Brasil. Laroyê!
