Encyclopedia
Resonance Records is an independent Jazz Record Label established in 2008 as the centerpiece of the Rising Jazz Stars Foundation, a non profit organization dedicated to preserving the art and legacy of Jazz. The label is based in Los Angeles, California and is devoted to preserving Jazz and discovering the rising stars of tomorrow. The label roster includes Andreas Öberg
, Marian Petrescu, Claudio Roditi
, Christian Howes
, Tamir Hendelman, John Beasley
, and Bill Cunliffe
. Resonance Records has also released recordings by Gene Harris
and Scott LaFaro
.
Rising Jazz Stars Foundation was founded by George Klabin in 2005 in an effort to provide support and assistance to talented Jazz artists. It began as a production of performance opportunities for the artists at the Rising Jazz Stars Studio located in Beverly Hills. Klabin provided further support by creating Resonance Records, where all the artists would be assisted in record production, distribution, and performance opportunities. The goals were to “’capture brilliant and passionate, magical moments that rise above the average jazz heard on most CDs’ and, on a more personal level, to be that missing agent for those deserving artists who simply had not received that serendipitous break, leading to proper publication and promotion of their best work”.
