Guy Berger Posted October 20, 2006 Report Posted October 20, 2006 (edited) I am probably going to catch the Odean Pope - Andrew Cyrille duo. post-mortem: I've seen Andrew in concert 3 times, and each time I'm more convinced that he's one of the greats. He was awesome tonight. Odean Pope was good too, but I was expecting him to be a little more "outside". Guy Edited October 21, 2006 by Guy Quote
Bright Moments Posted October 29, 2006 Report Posted October 29, 2006 my wife & i saw bruce hornsby tonight at gusman hall in coral gables, florida. bruce played solo piano - 2 sets with a short intermission between - over 2 hours of music. he played some great oldies and he also played some new tunes from his upcoming jazz album with dejohnette & mcbride and his upcoming bluegrass album with ricky scaggs. great venue, great seats, great music & great company = great evening!

Tony Pusey Posted October 29, 2006 Report Posted October 29, 2006 (edited) Scofield with Steve Swallow in Helsingborg. On thursday we saw a storming set by the Kocani Orchestra from Macedonia at the same venue, phew...Balkan brass and the whole theatre reduced to a heathing mass of dancers with the band scattered all over the auditorium.

mikeweil Posted October 31, 2006 Author Report Posted October 31, 2006 (edited) Saw a two piano recital on Monday night of Joseph and Anthony Parratore playing some Schubert, Camille Saint-Saens' version of Liszt's b minor sonata, Debussy's Prélude pour un après-Midi d'un faune, and a Gershwin concerto. Encores were an Irving Berlin Medley and excerpts of the Jazz Point Suite Dave Brubeck wrote for them - but one of the two brothers simply cannot swing ...... The Liszt sonata they played really well. Edited October 31, 2006 by mikeweil Quote

Michael Weiss Posted October 31, 2006 Report Posted October 31, 2006 Saw Sunday Matinee performance of Sankai Juku at BAM. Performances in USA are rare - one tour every few years or so. Not to be missed. Always great music by Takashi Kako. Quote

St. Paul, Minnesota Xcel Energy Center October 29, 2006 The show was great. The new songs sounded great and some of the songs I had heard in September sounded different with Stu Kimball playing acoustic most of the night. Denny Freeman is always a blast to hear live. Quote
Soulstation1 Posted November 1, 2006 Report Posted November 1, 2006 Sonny Rollins how was the rollins' concert? Quote
king ubu Posted November 2, 2006 Report Posted November 2, 2006 Last night the Rabih Abou-Khalil Group: RAK (oud), Luciano Biondini (acc), Michel Godard (tuba), Gavino Murgia (ss,voice), Jarrod Cagwin (d,perc) Fantastic performance! Last Sunday, together with twelve other bold souls... Steve Swell/Gebhard Ullmann Quartet w/Hilliard Greene (b), Barry Altschul (d) short - due to obvious lack of interest - but 75 great minutes of music, very interesting compositions, and all four very skilled musicians.

HolyStitt Posted November 2, 2006 Report Posted November 2, 2006 Sonny Rollins how was the rollins' concert? It was great! This was the third time I have seen him perform. The first time was really good, but the second time was disappointing with a little too much solo space for percusionist Kimati Dinizulu. This time he had the usual group, but with Kobie Watkins on drums and Bobby Broom on guitar, which seemed to add a different kind of spark to Sonny. He only played 90 minutes, but it was a solid 90 minutes. His tune selection leaned pretty heavy towards the new CD Sonny, Please. Quote

Peter Johnson Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 Tonight, as part of Seattle's Earshot Jazz Festival, I'm going to see The Turbanator at 10:00! Can't wait--love seeing the good doctor live in concert. I'm hoping he'll play a few tracks from his latest--which I'm spinning right now in anticipation! Full report later... Quote

EKE BBB Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 Last Tuesday (XXV Festival de Jazz del San Juan Evangelista): Dave Douglas Quintet ("Meaning And Mistery" project), with Don MacCaslin (ts), Uri Caine (Fender Rhodes), James Genus (b) and Clarence Penn (d). Quote
mikeweil Posted November 4, 2006 Author Report Posted November 4, 2006 (edited) Didn't expect to get to hear some jazz here in Lindau, after listening to the sound samples I'm seriously considering to go see the Tonc Feinig Trio tonight ..... More info and samples on http://www.tonctone.com/. p.s. decided against it as my wife and myself were a little tired, and the hotel where the event took place appeared to be quite expensive ...

Joe G Posted November 5, 2006 Report Posted November 5, 2006 Just got back from a great show at the Jazz Kitchen (Indy): Michael Wolff (p) Badal Roy (tabla) Mike Clark (d) Amit Chatterjee (g) Lincoln Goines (e.b.) Nice mix of material and players. Quote
