		GERRY HEMINGWAY: I sort of fell into an understanding about the fact that to make this work in the music business you are obliged to understand many different aspects of what it is to be in the music business, particularly if you have an independent mind on what you want to do.
		GERRY HEMINGWAY: Waltzes, Two-Steps, & Other Matters Of The Heart is the final recording of this quintet (Michael Moore, Wolter Wierbos, Ernst Reijseger, Mark Dresser), which I maintained from 1990 to 1998.
		GERRY HEMINGWAY: To be honest, Fred, the reason the band broke up was due to the fact that some of the chemistry didn't work and there would be problems between Michael and Ernst.

	Music: Beat Poetry (The Boston Phoenix . 01-24-00)
		Hemingway, trombonist Ray Anderson, and bassist Mark Helias called their trio Oahspe when they formed it in New Haven in the late '70s; later they changed the name to the more descriptive BassDrumBone.
		Sometimes Hemingway's minimal approach makes the music airy and weightless; at other times he shoulders the other two ahead of him as he fills up every space with color and rhythm by rapidly rotating among the instruments in his kit.
		They played Hemingway's most formidably complex charts with breathtaking ease, their group improvisations took on the elegance and clarity of composition, and they clearly had a ball when they performed.

		Fromanek moved fluidly from walking quarter notes to rapid, high drones to abstract filigree, and Hemingway's drumming favored a loose pulse, all the better to acquit his taste for layered tempos.
		Whenever your mind had settled into one of Hemingway's pieces, he cued a new melody, a new mood, a new texture.
		Hemingway began laying down a loose beat with his hands, got some talking-drum effects with his blowtube, shifted textures from palms to pattering fingertips to lightly scratching fingernails.

	Gerry Hemingway b
		Hemingway comes from a musical family—his grandmother was a concert pianist, his father studied composition with Paul Hindemith—and he was attracted to the drums ‘from the first’.
		A rock fan as a teenager, he was later seduced by the jazz he heard in New York's nightclubs and, back in New Haven, began to play with Anthony Davis and George Lewis, both studying at nearby Yale, and Leo Smith, who had recently settled in the area.
		Hemingway is expert at coaxing an incredible range of timbrel colours from his kit, even if it means using unorthodox means such as flicking the cymbals with a towel or rolling coins across his snare drum.

		Hemingway, best known as the drummer for Anthony Braxton's standard quartet, compliments Lehn with his varied arsenal, which ranges from drum-set bombast to a more Eddie Prevost-esque 'landscape' percussion.
		Hemingway's reputation as a forceful and articulate drummer was established on sessions with Anthony Braxton and Marilyn Crispell.
		Hemingway, of course, plays a crucial role, chugging and shuffling the music along, as well as ranging more freely around his kit.

	Mulhouse 2003 - Gerry Hemingway / John Butcher
		Hemingway produces the same effects, a pallet of sounds inside the sound, by stroking a cymbal with the bow vigorously, or torturing with the palm of his hands the skins of his drums.
		Hemingway produit les mêmes effets, une palette de sons à l'intérieur du son, en caressant énergiquement une cymbale à l'archet, en torturant avec la paume de ses mains les peaux de sa caisse claire.
		In a slow and meticulous progression, the natural charm of the saxophonist and the precision of the drummer (with his refined elegance) take you by the guts, and do not release you, on a voyage which one would like to be infinite and perpetual.

		I've been a huge follower of Gerry Hemingway since I saw him with Marilyn Crispell and Reggie Workman in a previous visit to the Triangle.
		Thomas was a new force for me, but to see Gerry with Thomas is to see an entirely new kind of duo communication, one that is so viscerally and visually exciting and new that it is unique in contemporary music.
		In compiling their favorites, Gerry indicated there was no shortage of great material, so this really is the best of a great tour.

		The idea of a small jazz combo going back to re-record its basic songbook might not sound especially eventful, but when it is someone like percussionist Gerry Hemingway this becomes a cause to celebrate.
		The tunes here are a virtual cross-section of Hemingway's writing abilities, from swaggering blues marches and sumptuous ballads to propulsive swing and funky free jazz, even classic African highlife.
		A great deal of Hemingway's recorded output has been from live tapes, and so there is special merit to this disc.

	Gerry Hemingway \| The Whimbler
		Such alchemy is apparent in abundance on Gerry Hemingwayâs new project for Clean Feed, one that builds on the standing foundation of its predecessor, Devilâs Paradise, with a few perspicacious personnel changes.
		All compositions come from Hemingwayâs pen and are chock-full of changeups and about-faces that demand active participation on the part of the players.
		Hemingway largely abstains from involving the more abstract elements of his style like bowed cymbals and scraped metal and focuses instead on crafting a tight conference of accessible voices that still leaves plenty of room for spontaneous revision and individual input.

	John Butcher & Gerry Hemingway
		Hemingway produces the same effects, a pallet of sounds inside the sound, by cherishing a cymbal with the bow vigorously, by torturing with the palm of his hands the skins of its clear case.
		Though Hemingway had a lengthy history of collaborating with European improvisers, the release of Tom and Gerry (Erstwhile) with synthesist Thomas Lehn signalled a deepening interest in integrating free improvisation and MIDI-triggered samples.
		Central to its overall cohesion is Hemingway's unflinching use of pulse and even patterns, and butcher's sureness in elongating staccato bursts into loping legato, and in whittling a flowing line until it is little more than a shaving.

		But what makes Lehn and Hemingway such an interesting pair is that Hemingway is able to match Lehn in the range of sounds and textures he produces on percussion.
		In summary, Tom and Gerry are an intriguing duo with crossover appeal to a variety of music fans.

	Shooters And Bowlers : John Butcher / Gerry Hemingway : CD Reviews : One Final Note
		This reviewer had the good fortune to be at the Chicago show by these wonderful musicians (which meant, owing to the bad fortune wrought that night by the scheduling gods, I was unable to be at the Irene Schweizer solo concert at the Empty Bottle—alas, life is about choices…).
		The pairing between the highly abstract, microtonal saxophones of John Butcher and the more conventionally loquacious (if no less inventive) Gerry Hemingway was something of a surprise at the time—it's much more taken-for-granted now that they've come off their second tour together.
		Hemingway is in top form throughout this disc, using triggered electronics sparingly and inventively alongside his thoughtfully textured kit work (including rubbed drum heads, bowed cymbals, and so forth).

	Gerry Hemingway Quintet - Waltzes, Two-Steps & Other Matters of the Heart in Charts Music (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Calling Gerry Hemingway a drummer is a little like calling John Coltrane a saxophonist.
		Though this is just one dimension of Hemingway's past, it's illustrative of his approach to blending composition and improvisation.
		With Dutch superstars Wolter Wierbos (trombone) and Ernst Reijseger (cello) alongside expat Michael Moore (alto sax, clarinets), the quintet's front line is given to fat 'bone solos that squiggle and blurt, not to mention looping reed interludes that seem hand-in-glove with the cello.
