504-578-6685ABOUT THE FESTIVAL CREATIVE DIRECTOR, DONALD HARRISON JR.

New Orleans-born saxophonist 2022 NEA Jazz Master Big Chief Donald Harrison Jr. is a

musician and composer whom master musicians consider a master of every era of jazz, soul, and

funk, and a composer of orchestral classical music. A genius according to fellow music geniuses

like Eddie Palmieri and Mike Clark, his alma mater, Berklee College of Music, awarded

Harrison an Honorary Doctorate in 2021. In the HBO drama “Tremé”, Emmy-winning director

David Simon created two characters to portray how Harrison innovated new styles of music. He

appeared as an actor/musician in nine episodes of “Tremé,” in Oscar-winning director Johnathon

Demme’s film “Rachel Getting Married,” in Spike Lee’s “When The Levees Broke”

documentary, and Marvel’s “Luke Cage.” Harrison is also the recognized Big Chief of the

Congo Square Nation in Afro-New Orleans culture and was Chiefted in 2019 by Queen Diambi

Kabatusuila from the Democratic Republic of Congo, Africa.

Harrison honed his experiences playing with legendary artists such as Roy Haynes, Art Blakey,

Eddie Palmieri, Dr. John, Lena Horne, Dr. Eddie Henderson, Miles Davis, McCoy Tyner, Dr.

Lonnie Smith, Ron Carter, Billy Cobham, Chuck Loeb, The Headhunters, hip-hop legends

Digable Planets, Guru’s Jazzmatazz, The Notorious BIG, and The Chicago Symphony Orchestra.

He has performed with over 200 jazz masters and innovated three influential styles of jazz. At

nineteen years old, Harrison created a modern jazz take on the New Orleans second-line tradition

and introduced his composition, “New York Second-Line,” to the jazz world in 1979. By the

mid-80s, he had created the sub-genre of Nouveau Swing, a distinctive sound that blended the

swing beat of modern jazz with hip-hop, funk, and soul music. In the ’90s, Harrison recorded hits

in the smooth jazz genre. He then began exploring music through the lens of quantum physics in

2000.With “Quantum Jazz,” Harrison expanded music from a two-dimensional state into a

four-dimensional state. He has since mentored artists as diverse as Christian “Chief Adjuah”

Scott, Darius “Deezle” Harrison, Jonathon Batiste, Esperanza Spaulding, Trombone Shorty, and

The Notorious BIG, just to name a select few. He remains one of the world’s foremost authorities

on the musics housed under the popular name of “jazz.”

In 2024, Harrison will perform and release his new recordings “Magic Touch,” “Congo Square

Suite,” and” The Art of Passion” from his Omniverse Music multi-genre singles concept.

Of all the positions of authority and responsibility, that of Command Chief Warrant Officer is probably the least known. However, this is a critical position within all branches of the military —especially within the Army Reserve — because the Warrant Officer is a steady presence with expert knowledge that helps the total Army achieve its mission.  Warrant Officers are innovative integrators of emerging technologies, dynamic teachers, confident warfighters, and developers of specialized teams of Soldiers.

Although they make up less than three percent of total Army strength, Warrant Officers are responsible for training Soldiers, organizing and advising on missions, and advancing within their career specialties. The Warrant Officer cohort is comprised of more than 26,000 men and women of the active Army and Reserve components.

Chief Warrant Officer 5 LaShon White, Command Chief Warrant Officer of the U.S. Army Reserve Command, as he discusses the invaluable role Warrant Officers fulfill. CW5 White first enlisted in the Army in 1986 and this year became the first Black Command Chief Warrant Officer of the Army Reserve.

ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT POSITIONS IN THE U-S ARMY RESERVE MAY POSSIBLY BE ONE THAT MANY CIVILIANS HAVE NEVER HEARD OF.

SINCE 1918, WARRANT OFFICERS HAVE SERVED AS TRUSTED ADVISERS AND MENTORS WHO HELP SOLVE THE ARMY’S MOST COMPLEX CHALLENGES.

HERE NOW TO EXPLAIN THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS ROLE, IS CHIEF-WARRANT-OFFICER-5, LASHON (LA-SHAWN) WHITE, COMMAND CHIEF WARRANT OFFICER OF THE U-S ARMY RESERVE COMMAND.

Big Chief Donald Harrison

BIO

New Orleans-born saxophonist 2022 NEA Jazz Master Big Chief Donald
Harrison Jr. is a musician/composer whom master musicians consider a master
of every era of jazz, soul, funk, and a composer of orchestral classical music. He
is also a genius, according to geniuses like Eddie Palmieri and Mike Clark. His
alma mater, The Berklee College of Music, awarded him an Honorary Doctorate
in 2021. In the HBO drama Treme, Emmy-winning director David Simon
created two characters to portray how Harrison innovated new styles of music.
He appeared as an actor/musician in nine episodes of “Treme,” in Oscar-winning
director Johnathon Demme’s film “Rachel Getting Married,” in Spike Lee’s
“When The Levee’s Broke” documentary, and Marvel’s “Luke Cage.” This
talented artist is the recognized Big Chief of Congo Square in Afro-New Orleans
culture and was Chiefted in 2019 by Queen Diambi Kabatusuila from the
Democratic Republic of Congo, Africa.

Harrison honed his experiences playing with Roy Haynes, Art Blakey, Eddie
Palmieri, Dr. John, Lena Horne, Dr. Eddie Henderson, Miles Davis, McCoy
Tyner, Dr. Lonnie Smith, Ron Carter, Billy Cobham, Chuck Loeb, The
Headhunters, hip-hop legends Digable Planets, Guru’s Jazzmatazz, The
Notorious BIG, and The Chicago Symphony Orchestra. He has performed with
over 200 jazz masters and innovated three influential styles of jazz. At nineteen,
Harrison created a modern jazz take on the New Orleans second-line tradition
and introduced his composition, New York Second-Line, to the jazz world in
1979. By the mid-80s, he created Nouveau Swing, a distinctive sound that
blended the swing beat of modern jazz with hip-hop, funk, and soul music. In the
’90s, Harrison recorded hits in the smooth jazz genre. He began exploring music
through the lens of quantum physics in 2000. With quantum jazz, Harrison
expanded music from a two-dimensional state into a four-dimensional state.
Harrison mentored artists as diverse as Christian Scott, Darius Deezle Harrison,
Johnathon Batiste, Esperanza Spaulding, Trombone Shorty, and The Notorious
Big.

In 2024, Harrison will perform and release his recordings "Magic Touch,"
"Congo Square Suite," and" The Art of Passion" from his Omniverse Music
multi-genre singles concept.

For some Army Reserve Soldiers, their mission extends beyond land operations. Every day Soldiers take to the skies with careers in aviation and aerial defense. Army Reserve crew members perform a multitude of missions, including transporting troops and personnel, distributing supplies and equipment, directing search and rescue missions, providing combat support, and more in support of the Army’s mission here in the United States and around the world. This National Aviation Week, the Army Reserve commemorates the achievements and innovations of Soldiers in this field.

The Army Reserve has a range of opportunities in the aviation community. Most notably, Army pilots are responsible for flying fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters, and drones. However, careers in Army aviation also include aviation operations specialist, air traffic control, aircraft electricians, helicopter mechanics, aircraft structural repair, and flight paramedics.

It takes a team of highly specialized professionals to make aviation missions successful. The skills and hands-on training Soldiers gain in an Army aviation and aerial defense career can’t be matched anywhere else. Soldiers help defend the nation from above, while also exploring the skies and working with some of the most advanced machines in the world.

Join U.S. Army Reserve Command Aviation Directorate, Fixed Wing Division Chief, Lieutenant Colonel Amy Buck as she discusses the importance of celebrating National Aviation Week and the unique opportunities the Army Reserve offers to Soldiers serving in the aviation community.
