All music used with permission by Third Law with Sam Blakeslee.     Thriving jazz communities offer performers at all skill levels not only stages to play on but places to compose and perform original works.   Northeast Ohio is no different, and the Third Law Collective is the music settlement’s initiative with this goal in mind. Periodically musicians from throughout the area meet up and share original works with each other and audiences. This week, we feature one of those performances.  Led by bop stop director Bryan Kinnard on flute with a guest appearance from New York based Trombonist Sam Blakeslee and from a June 29th, 2023 performance – it’s the Third Law Collective – Live at the Bop Stop.   Live at the Bop Stop is made possible by The Music Settlement – serving Northeast Ohio by offering music instruction, music therapy, and early childhood education since 1912. The Music Settlement's mission is to welcome all to our music and arts community to learn, create, inspire, and heal.   This program is recorded at the Robert Conrad Studios at the Bop Stop in Cleveland, Ohio, and the studios of WBWC FM on the campus of Baldwin-Wallace University in Berea, Ohio. Additional production at the Bop Stop is provided by Graham Rosen. Technical editing for the program is provided by Dr. Pete Naegele, Shawn Gilbert, and Darren Thompson through Gilazar Media.   The executive producer and writer is Daniel Peck, with additional consulting production on behalf of The Music Settlement by Bryan Kennard.   For extended versions of all of our shows, our Live at the Bop Stop podcast can be found on your favorite podcast app or visit our website at www.themusicsettlement.org and click the Bop Stop link.   To reach out directly, email [email protected].
