dbo:abstract جين غيفورد (بالإنجليزية: Gene Gifford)‏ هو عازف جاز أمريكي، ولد في 31 مايو 1908 في أميريكوس في الولايات المتحدة، وتوفي في 12 نوفمبر 1970 في ممفيس في الولايات المتحدة. (ar) Gene Gifford (* 31. Mai 1908 in Americus (Georgia) als H. Eugene Gifford; † 12. November 1970 in Memphis, Tennessee) war ein US-amerikanischer Gitarrist und Arrangeur des Oldtime Jazz und des Swing. Gene Gifford tourte zu Beginn seiner Karriere mit Bob Fosters’ und ’ Orchester sowie in der Blue Steele Band durch die Südstaaten der USA und wurde dort mit den afroamerikanischen Gesangsformen wie Blues und Gospel bekannt, die seine späteren Arrangements für das Casa Loma Orchestra, dessen Mitglied er 1935 wurde, beeinflusst haben. Die Band war eines der ersten großen weißen Swingorchester, für das Gifford Arrangements mit antiphonischem Wechselspiel und Riff-Figuren schuf, die später von Benny Goodman weiterentwickelt wurden (Casa Loma Stomp 1930, White Jazz, Black Jazz, Maniac's Ball 1931). Einige der Arrangements Giffords wurden auch von Fletcher Hendersons Orchester übernommen. 1935 spielte Gifford unter eigenem Namen vier Plattenseiten (darunter den Titel New Orleans Twist) u. a. mit Bunny Berigan, Bud Freeman, Claude Thornhill, Matty Matlock, Ray Bauduc und Dick McDonough ein. 1939 verließ Gifford das Casa Loma Orchestra, kehrte aber noch einmal 1948/49 für kurze Zeit zurück, als die Band unter der Leitung von Glen Gray arbeitete. Danach verschwand Gene Gifford von der Musikszene und arbeitete als Radiomechaniker. Nebenberuflich unterrichtete er und schrieb Musiktitel. (de) Harold Eugene Gifford (May 31, 1908 – November 12, 1970) was an American jazz banjoist, guitarist, and arranger. Gifford was raised in Memphis, Tennessee, and played banjo in high school. He played in territory bands, including Watson's Bell Hops and the bands of Bob Foster and Lloyd Williams. He formed his own group to tour Texas and then switched to guitar to play with Blue Steele and Henry Cato's Vanities Orchestra in 1928. In 1929 he wrote arrangements for Jean Goldkette, and that same year he joined the Casa Loma Orchestra, where he became the group's chief arranger. He played guitar and banjo in the ensemble but quit in 1933 to concentrate on arrangements for the group. He remained with Casa Loma until 1939, when he was bought out of his contract due to alcohol-related infractions of the band's strict rules, but he returned to play with them in 1948-49. He worked as a freelance arranger in the 1940s and did much work arranging for radio. In the 1950s and 1960s he went into semiretirement from music, working in radio engineering. Gifford led only one session as a bandleader, which yielded four tunes for Victor Records in 1935. [Gifford] approached his task as an "engineer" creating intricate staccato passages which hurtled along as if on well oiled rollers from which the soloists were suddenly launched. His originals were like demonic steam trains where every moving part flashed and meshed in impossible displays of kinetic energy. (en)
