Gil Goldstein
Gil (* 1950 in Baltimore, Maryland) began studying accordion at age 5 but later
moved on to cello and piano. He studied at the Berklee College of Music and by
1973 was working with Pat Martino and Lee Konitz. He started with the Gil Evans
Orchestra in the early 1980s and also worked with Wayne Shorter, Billy Cobham,
and Jim Hall. He returned to accordion for an album by Michel Petrucciani and
occasionally uses it on his solo albums. As an accordionist he toured with Richard
Galliano in 2000 but also played piano on the tour. During the 1980s and 1990s he
was a member of the group Elements.
In 1990 he toured Germany with the Blues Brothers, temporarily replacing Leon Pendarvis on keyboards. In 2007 he released the album The Music of Elton John with Steve Swallow, Paul Motian, and Italian saxophonist Pietro Tonolo. The quartet performed jazz arrangements of some of Elton John's most popular songs. Gil composed music for the films Radio Inside (1994) and Simply Irresistible (1999). He performed "I Love Paris" in the film De-Lovely. He has won three Grammy Awards. Two were for his production and arrangement credits for the album Wide Angles by Michael Brecker. He has taught at New York University. from Wikipedia |
