Sound is usually excellent in that venue. Ultimately Tyshawn Sorey stole the show. Thanks. Sadly Sorey's not in the band next week, Cleaver instead.

mikeweil Posted November 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2018 Tonight: ARS ANTIQUA AUSTRIA Gunar Letzbor, Violine & Leitung Magdalena Hasibeder, Cembalo Hubert Hoffmann, Laute/ Barockgitarre Jan Krigovsky, Violone Biber - Spaßvogel, Rebell und Zigeunergeiger Ein Künstler der keinen Respekt vor Traditionen und Regeln kannte. Er war der Erste, der die virtuose Technik der Zigeuner in der Kunstmusik salonfähig machte. Für seinen Dienstherren Karl Liechtenstein Kastelkorn, dem Erzbischof von Olmütz, schrieb er die berühmte «Sonata representativa», in der er tierische Laute auf der Geige imitiert (Hahn, Kuckuck, Wachtel, Frosch ecc...). Wer waren seine Vorbilder? - Mit Sicherheit der Wiener Hofkapellmeister H. Schmelzer, wahrscheinlich auch dessen Vorgänger A. Bertali. Der italienische Geigenvirtuose C.A. Lonati, lange Zeit Vorgesetzter von A. Corelli in Rom, nimmt in seiner großangelegte Sonatensammlung, die ebenfalls Kaiser Leopold I gewidmet ist, deutliche Anleihen bei den geigentechnischen Errungenschaften Bibers. Some great violin chamber music from the 17th century by one of the best historically informed violinist of this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Weiss Posted November 13, 2018 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 On May 1, 2017 at 1:55 PM, Dmitry said: April 29th 2017 SUNY Purchase - Tribute to Sonny Rollins Tenors - Jimmy Heath Ravi Coltrane Eric Wyatt Joe Lovano James Carter James Brandon Lewis David Hazeltine, piano Todd Coolman, bass Victor Lewis, drums https://tickets.artscenter.org/single/eventDetail.aspx?p=6144 A very nice tribute indeed, this was a multi-saxophone blowing session of a very high caliber. After that, went to the Knickerbocker Bar & Grill, across the way from NYU. Surprisingly, I'd never been there before. Michael Weiss, piano Kenny Davis, bass ???, drums This place has the worst accoustics. All I heard from the bar was the drum set, nary a piano note. Bizarre. Hasn't anyone ever complained?! So finished my drink, and went to Wo Hop instead. Hot & Sour soup, vegetable chow fun at around 1-30am. Nice. That wasn't me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Bresnahan Posted November 14, 2018 Report Share Posted November 14, 2018 I am tempted to go see the Bad Plus at the recently re-opened Press Room in Portsmouth, NH but I think I'm going to pass. If it was Friday or Saturday night... probably... but with a 4:45 AM wake up alarm tomorrow, nah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kate Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 Za, Pollock & a Baker on drums Bit of a tamer journey to Louisville to see Music of Cream (v. the recent Fall Phish tour), performed by Jack & Ginger's boys with Eric's nephew (attenuated) on lead. Extraordinary to experience such unique and seminal hard psychedelic blues played by those with a DNA-level affiliation; a heavy dose of improvisation proved a welcomed rebuttal to the notion of a mere cover act. What the trio did with "White Room" in the 'tween spaces was revelatory (who'd have thought!). A favourite moment, which underscored the group's aesthetic risk-taking (and perhaps only a Deadhead or jazz aficionado could distill great significance from such a thing), occurred during "I'm So Glad" when groupmind completely broke down: 4-5 minutes of utterly failed attempts to find some sort of freeform melodic construct (Will listening to Malcolm while looking pensively, lips pursed at the ornate ceiling and Malcolm listening headcocked to Will while staring holes with laser focus into the stage flooring) until Kofi declared 'enough' and pulled the crew back onto the page of written notation. And in the beautiful historic Brown Theatre! Worth the time and money. Louisville is also home to a little-known artistic jewel in the Midwest: the Speed Art Museum located on the edge of U of L's lovely campus. Currently hosting a Modern Masterworks exhibit that comprises movements "from Picasso to Pollock"; really an extraordinary capsule of major artistic schools during the first half of the 20th century. Finally, in years past I'd eaten at the pizza altar of Impellizeri's, though friends of a competing faction insisted that Wick's is the inarguable Alpha predator among River City pizzerias. So I went, and in the shabby-chic boho bar environs of Wick's, watched the busy midday traffic along Bardstown Road, deep in the magnificent Highlands, while a crazy patch of the season's first snow moved through. Good - no, really good - pizza, BUT certainly not Impellizeri's...sauce too thick, no fennel (or not enough), and clearly inferior crust. Have to admit, I brought 4 pieces home and it was better cold the next day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
