Phil Dizack
Philip Dizack is an artist of vision, one of the defining jazz trumpeters of his generation, a musician whose sound carries both the weight of tradition and the urgency of the moment.
This show will feature Paul Grabowsky on piano, and a set with students from the Sir Zelman Cowen School of Music and Performance, where he's teaching, rehearsing, performing and recording with the students as part of his Monash residency.
Phil Dizack
After moving to New York City in 2003 to attend the Manhattan School of Music, he honed his craft under the mentorship of legendary figures Bobby Watson and Eddie Palmieri, earning numerous accolades along the way, including winning the National Trumpet Competition and the Carmine Caruso International Jazz Trumpet Solo Competition. In addition to his performing career, Dizack is a dedicated educator. Since 2019, he has held the position of Associate Professor of Jazz Trumpet at the University of North Texas, where he helps shape the next generation of musicians.
This show will feature a performance with students from the Sir Zelman Cowen School of Music and Performance, where he's teaching, rehearsing, performing and recording with the students as part of his Monash residency. These activities enable students the privilege and rare opportunity to rehearse, perform and record the compositions alongside the composers. This unique student experience is a key pedagogical approach within the Sir Zelman Cowen School of Music and Performance, with established artists mentoring the emerging generation of jazz musicians. The recording will be released as part of the ongoing Monash Sessions series, which can be found here: https://monashschoolofmusicandperformance.bandcamp.com/
