Scottsdale Philharmonic Announces Program for May 7 Concert with a Masterpiece of Russian Music
[ad_1]
Led by Principal Conductor Maestro Dmitry Polyakov, the May 7 concert will feature a special tribute to Louis Armstrong, with soloist Dan Reed. The concert will also feature a masterpiece of Russian music, Anton Arensky’s “Symphony No. 1 in B minor.”
Maestro Dmitry Polyakov represents the modern landscape of classical music with a personality that embodies the great Russian musical traditions of the Moscow Conservatory. “Our audience will enjoy his artistic interpretation of Anton Arensky’s ‘Symphony No. 1’ classical masterpiece,” says Joy Partridge, Executive Director of the Scottsdale Philharmonic.
Louis Daniel Armstrong (Aug. 4, 1901 – July 6, 1971), nicknamed “Satchmo,” “Satch,” and “Pops,” was an American trumpeter and vocalist. He was among the most influential figures in jazz. His career spanned five decades and several eras in the history of jazz. Armstrong received numerous accolades including the Grammy Award for Best Male Vocal Performance for Hello, Dolly! in 1965, as well as a posthumous win for the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 1972, and the induction into the National Rhythm & Blues Hall of Fame in 2017.
Soloist Dan Reed was born and raised in St. Louis and started studying trumpet at age nine. While in high school, he played one night at Preservation Hall in New Orleans and met Al Hirt (American trumpeter). Reed fell in love with traditional jazz and graduated from Indiana University with a degree in Music Performance. He moved to Arizona in January 2011 and is the featured musician in many bands. He is currently the band director for a private Christian school in AZ.
“Our audience is going to love this special tribute to Louis Armstrong as well as the other wonderful musical selections we have prepared,” says Partridge.
“The vision of the Scottsdale Philharmonic becoming a major symphony in Arizona is just beginning,” Partridge explains. “We welcome anyone who might want to join us in sharing our new vision of a first-class symphony in Scottsdale. We also invite anyone who would like to be part of our Scottsdale Philharmonic Advocacy Alliance, whose members are passionate about classical music.” For more information, contact Joy@scottsdalephilharmonic.com.
The Scottsdale Philharmonic is a non-profit organization that receives a vast majority of its support from individual donors and appreciates any and all donations. The symphony is also looking forward to an expanded 2023-24 concert schedule at the Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts. Concerts are free through the Philharmonic’s live-streaming program, which can be accessed through the website, scottsdalephilharmonic.com, during the performance.

SENSANE, a Derby producer and DJ, will launch his upcoming album on 22 October 2026 via AHK Global Records, his own record label, according to the announcement. The album combines prominent voices from Panjabi music, new talent from India, and UK artists, marking SENSANE’s debut appearance as a vocalist.
The album follows SENSANE’s long-running mix of Panjabi and Bhangra traditions with folk, hip-hop, R&B, garage and electronic production, a sound he’s built his name on as both a touring DJ and label head. AHK Global Records, which he founded, has previously put out Punjabi-facing projects, including a five-track EP with vocalist Kulvinder Johal that reportedly debuted at number six and was described by some as the first Punjabi album to reach that position on its chart.
"This album brings together the sounds and artists that have shaped me," SENSANE said in the announcement. "I wanted the album to honour the legends, give new voices a platform and show where I’m going next. Putting my own voice on a track is a big moment for me, and I can’t wait for people to hear it."
Details about the complete track listing, collaborators, and SENSANE’s vocal debut track will be revealed before the album drops, according to the statement.
Studio CarryOnHarry will be watching whether SENSANE’s own vocal debut changes how listeners place him: as a producer stepping forward, or as an artist who’s been building toward this the whole time.

C’batch has released “Our Little Pooh Pea (The Last Light) 4 – Cinematic,” an instrumental track built from a previously recorded guitar performance that the artist has reshaped into a new piece.
The release continues a pattern in C’batch’s work: revisiting prior work and reimagining it across multiple versions instead of viewing recordings as standalone pieces. Multiple outlets covering the release have noted that this approach — returning to older ideas and giving them new context — has become something of a signature, with this track functioning as the fourth installment under the “Our Little Pooh Pea (The Last Light)” title.
The piece is instrumental, with the guitar serving as the primary voice throughout the piece rather than functioning as one element among vocals or other lead instruments. Coverage of the release has described the guitar as the connective thread of the piece, tying its texture and tone together in a way multiple reviewers have called cinematic — the arrangement building mood and movement without lyrics to guide it.
Studio CarryOnHarry finds the more interesting story here isn’t the track itself but the method: a musician who views archived material as material for reinterpretation across multiple versions, and building a numbered series out of revisiting it.
