David "Fuze" Fiuczynski (born March 5, 1964) is an American guitarist, best known as the leader of the Screaming Headless Torsos and David Fiuczynski's KiF, and as a member of Hasidic New Wave.〔(David Fiuczynski @ All About Jazz )〕 He has played on more than 95 albums as a session musician, band leader or band member. Though born in the United States, his family moved to Germany when he was 8 years old and remained until he was 19. He returned to the US to study at Hampshire College and later the prestigious New England Conservatory. He received a Bachelor of Music from the latter in 1989. After living in New York City for more than a decade, he now resides in Massachusetts and is a full-time professor at the Berklee College of Music in Boston.〔(David Fiuczynski | Berklee College of Music )〕 Though generally thought of as a jazz musician, David Fiuczynski describes himself as "a jazz-musician who doesn't want to play just jazz".〔(David Fiuczynski: New Music for a New World )〕 Many of his albums have thematic material that ties them to one or more additional genres. Screaming Headless Torsos, for instance, emphasizes a jazz-funk fusion, while Hasidic New Wave blends jazz with Semitic and African music; 2000's ''JazzPunk'' is a recording of standards and covers written by his idols and mentors, in which each tune was reworked in distinctive musical combinations. In 2005, Fiuczynski was hired by former Police drummer Stewart Copeland for his side project ''Gizmo'', which toured in Italy in July 2005. Starting in 2007, he's toured with trumpeter Cuong Vu and with jazz pianist Hiromi Uehara, and also appeared on the latter's albums ''Time Control'' and ''Beyond Standard.'' He is a 2011 Guggenheim Fellow.〔(David Fiuczynski - John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation )〕〔http://www.berklee.edu/news/print/3351〕 In 2012, he launched Planet MicroJam, an institute that explores use of microtones in jazz, ethnic folk, and other contexts.〔Tzvi Gluckin, Mega Micro Man, Premier Guitar, September 30, 2014 http://www.premierguitar.com/articles/21485-david-fiuczynski-mega-micro-man〕 Fiuczynski is the guitarist on the 2013 album Gamak by alto saxophonist Rudresh Mahanthappa.〔(First Listen: Rudresh Mahanthappa, 'Gamak' : NPR )〕 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「David Fiuczynski」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
