Stephen Ramsdell
Born:
Steve grew up in Solana Beach CA playing rock and original music. Studies with jazz guitarist Peter Sprague and an improvisation class with Jimmy Cheatham began adventures in the jazz idiom. While an undergraduate at Northwestern University, the focus was classical guitar with Anne Waller. There were numerous master classes with Oscar Ghiglia, Bob Guthrie, the Assad brothers and other notables of the classical guitar world. Steve also performed in concerts and clinics with jazz legends such as Rufus Reid, Barry Harris, John Abercrombie and many others while at NU. Experiences at the Bloom School of Jazz include studies with David Bloom and clinics with Randy Weston, Johnny Griffin and John Scofield. Editorial and transcription work was done for Paul Berliner as he completed his tome Thinking in Jazz. Later explorations of the music of Zimbabwe occurred in performances with Berliner’s ensemble. Steve’s interview with John Abercrombie was published in the IAJE Journal (1996)
