Hearts & Minds
Jason Stein - bass clarinet
Paul Giallorenzo - keyboard
Gerry Hemingway - drums
Hearts and Minds is a trio that combines brash fluidity, raw lyricism, and emphatic grooves, creating a daring and intricate musical universe. Bass clarinetist Jason Stein (Natural Information Society, Nature Work) and keyboardist Paul Giallorenzo (Ben LaMar Gay, PG Trio), both prominent figures in the Chicago jazz and improvisation scene, anchor the group’s dynamic sound. Originally formed with drummer Frank Rosaly, and later featuring Chad Taylor (jaimie branch, James Brandon Lewis, Chicago Underground), the live lineup will now be further elevated by the esteemed Gerry Hemingway. Hemingway, renowned for his work with avant-garde legends such as Anthony Braxton and Cecil Taylor, brings an exciting new dimension to the ensemble.

Anna Lindal, violin, studied in Sweden and Switzerland. Lived and performed in Switzerland and France for many years, played in the string trio Trio des Lyres specialized in mixed programs with barock and classical music on original instruments as well as contemporary works.

From 1983 to 2001 concertmaster of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in Stockholm and from 2002 Professor of violin at the Royal college of Music in Stockholm.
Currently a free lance violinist. Engaged in artistic research on interpretation/improvisation and tradition/convention versus contemporary expressions.
Performs regularly as soloist, as chamber musician, in experimental theatre and in different groups for free improvisation. Collaborates with a large number of contemporary composers and has had many new compositions dedicated to her. Made several recordings, among others two solo records with works by John Cage and Christian Wolff together with related composers. Has also been performing instrumental Argentine Tango in the quintet Tango Libre for several years.
Jason Stein is among the mere handful of improvisers who play the bass clarinet exclusively. Stein leads the acclaimed trio Locksmith Isidore as well as his own quartet. He contributes to several of the leading bands on Chicago’s new-music scene and has brought a vital voice to the freest of free-jazz jams. Stein’s playing showcases an extraordinary expertise on the bass clarinet, which ranges from powerful post-bop lines to ear-grabbing wails in the altissimo range. Chicago writer Neil Tesser notes that “Stein’s playing has a rawboned swagger particular to Chicago jazz in all its manifestations – from the trad playing of Bud Freeman and Jimmy McPartland in the 20s, through the tenor titans of the 50s, through the adventurers who formed the AACM in the 60s, and right up to the city’s renowned modern cadre of new-music improvisers.” Stein moved to Chicago in 2005 and has since recorded for such labels as Leo, Delmark, Not Two, Atavistic, 482 Music, Clean Feed, Astral Spirits, and Northern Spy. Stein has performed throughout the US and Europe as both a bandleader and sideman and has amassed a discography of over 40 albums.
\ — S. VICTOR AARON, SOMETHING ELSE!
“Stein has perfected a style of focused yet incendiary sonic exploration.” \ — BRIAN ZIMMERMAN, DOWNBEAT
“Stein has been a fixture on Chicago’s jazz and improvised-music scene for 12 years, playing his notoriously unwieldy instrument with fluidity, soul, and grace.” \ — PETER MARGASAK, CHICAGO READER
Originally from Long Island, NY, Paul Giallorenzo is a Chicago-based improviser, composer, producer, and sound designer using piano, synthesizer, keyboards, and electronics in a diverse range of contexts with a wide array of Chicago and international musicians in improvised, avant-jazz, experimental, and electro/acoustic music, performing regularly locally and throughout North America and Europe. \ \ Giallorenzo’s work has been praised for its “inside-out” nature – his ability to push the boundaries of “conventional” jazz toward more freedom but also, on the other side, to bring a measure of structure to more avant-garde material. Writing in the online journal Point Of Departure, John Litweiler said, “His solos and aggressive duets are gems of after-Bop, after-Bley melody,” while AllAboutJazz.org lauded music that “smudges the lines between the tradition and the avant-garde.”\ \ His work can be found on the Chicago-based Delmark Records and Austin-based Astral Spirits labels, as well as various other imprints including Leo Records (UK), Not Two Records (Poland), and 482 Music (NY).\ \ Giallorenzo is the Artistic Director of the intermedia arts organization Homeroom and a co-founder and programmer of the music venue/art gallery Elastic Arts, producing hundreds of creative music concerts and art events in Chicago since 2001.\ \ Current Projects include:\ PG Trio (Delmark) piano trio with Joshua Abrams - bass, Mikel Avery - drums\ Hearts & Minds (Astral Spirits) synthesizer/electric piano trio with Jason Stein - bass clarinet, Chad Taylor - drums;\ RedGreenBlue (Astral Spirits) pump organ/electronics in minimal experimental group with Ben LaMar Gay, Ryan Packard, Charlie Kirchen;\ Hatcher/Giallorenzo/Kirshner saxophone/piano/drums trio playing music of Frank Wright and Cecil Taylor + originals;\ Masul (Creative Sources) synthesizer duo with Thomas Mejer - contrabass saxophone, new record coming in Spring 2025;\ SOTOL (bandcamp) synthesizer/electronics duo with Ingebrigt Haker Flaten - e bass/electronics\ \ \ Past Projects include:\ Scanlines (Vimeo) synthesizer/electronics with Kim Alpert - video, Cristal Sabbagh/Jasmine Mendoza - movement, Anton Hatwich - bass;\ GitGO (Delmark, Leo, 482 Music) piano quintet including: Josh Berman - cornet, Jeb Bishop - trombone, Anton Hatwich - bass, Quin Kirchner - drums, Dave Rempis - saxophones, Marc Riordan - drums, Frank Rosaly - drums, Mars Williams - reeds\ Gregorio/Giallorenzo Duo (Peira) piano/prepared piano duo with Guillermo Gregorio - clarinet\ PG 3 (Nottwo Records) piano trio with Ingebrigt Håker Flaten - bass, Tim Daisy - drums;\ Breakway (Peira) with synthesizer trio with Brian Labycz - synthesizer, Marc Riordan - drums
