mjazzg Posted November 22, 2018 Report Share Posted November 22, 2018 Last night, Jaimie Branch took the roof off Cafe Oto. First set was Fly Or Die which was very good but the second set was something else. The set seemed to be one piece most likely titled 'Prayer For America' a phrase that featured prominently in Branch's spoken word contributions taking a swipe at "wide-eyed racists' and others. It wasn't overly difficult to understand the motivations for this piece. The band, Chad Taylor, Jason Ajemian, Lester St. Louis were fabulous playing free and funky as hell 16 hours ago, optatio said: Announcement and actual line-up are often two pairs of shoes: Line-up in Kassel: David Murray (ts, bcl), David Bryant (p) instead of Orrin Evans (p), Jaribu Shahid (b), Eric McPherson (dr) instead of Nasheet Waits (dr) + Saul Williams (poetry, spoken words) added (!!!). Nevertheless: Passionate, profound, blues soaked, energetic jazz with poetry and spoken words – unforgettable! On my to do list now: DAVID MURRAY feat. SAUL WILLIAMS: BLUES FOR MEMO. MOTEMA MTMO256 [2018] that's a very good album. Not surprised it was good live too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeweil Posted November 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2018 (edited) Eva Maria Pollerus, Cembalo Terra incognita Die Cembalomusik G. Ph. Telemanns - Suiten, Fugen, Choräle, Konzerte, Galanterien Going to see and hear my colleague from the Frankfurt Musical University, Eva Maria Pollerus, tonight, she plays a solo harpsichord recital with music by Georg Philipp Telemann exclusively. It is part of a new concert series inaugurated this summer devoted to Telemann, who worked and lived in Frankfurt for a few years early in his career, published his first prints there etc. Still an underrated composer, even though he may be the one most representative of the baroque music of his time, and by far the most influential in Germany.

mjazzg Posted November 27, 2018 Report Share Posted November 27, 2018 Looks like a great evening's music, have a great time. That's a string section from heaven, maybe you could see if Tomeka Reid wants to join them as well... I know Grdina's name but can't think of from where.

relyles Posted December 9, 2018 Report Share Posted December 9, 2018 Saturday was a good day for live music. In the afternoon I caught the Bennie Wallace Trio with Matt Dwonszyk and Carmen Intorre at a record store appearance in Wethersfield, CT. I then drove to Brooklyn, NY to hear William Parker's In Order To Survive with Rob Brown, Cooper-Moore and Gerald Cleaver. Two very different shows, but both very good.

sidewinder Posted December 11, 2018 Report Share Posted December 11, 2018 Interesting to see Jimmy McGriff there on that Marquee 1968 listing. I’ve heard of him popping up at some unlikely UK spots around that timeframe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive seen some which has Duke Pearsons Big Band one day and Santana the next! Maybe the most famous are the early February shows - triple bill: Allman Brothers Band Love Grateful Dead plus during the 2/11/70 show Duane Allman played with the Dead for a section of one of the shows. The 2/13 & 2/14/70 Grateful Dead shows are among the best the boys ever played and thankfully the best of the electric sets are immortalized on Dick’s Picks 4. plus we have the Dead back-to-back with Miles I believe in April and/or June 1970. The original King Crimson with Greg Lake & Michael Giles in December 1969 and many more. Edited December 11, 2018 by Steve Reynolds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
