garthsj Posted December 31, 2004 Report Posted December 31, 2004 If you log onto this site, you can listen to the now legendary Anthony Braxton Concert at the recent London Jazz Festival, together with some interesting interview material ... the sound is excellent ... There is lots of other good jazz to be found on the BBC3 site ... http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio3/jazzfest2004/index.shtml Garth. Quote
garthsj Posted January 1, 2005 Author Report Posted January 1, 2005 OOOPS! I am sorry .. I just noticed that someone had posted on this concert a few days ago .. still worth catching.... Quote
Larry Kart Posted January 1, 2005 Report Posted January 1, 2005 Garth (or anyone else) -- Any clues as to how I could listen to this? I have an IMac running OS9, and when I click on the "listen" button at BBC3, they give me lots of unspecified error messages and suggest that I downlead Real Player Basic, which I already have and have used before. So I tried to download Real Player Basic again from BBC3, per their instructions, thinking that there might be a difference between their version and the one I already have, but when I try to do so the only option that's alive (so it seems) for Mac users is for OSX; if you click on the OS8/OS9 button, nothing happens, i.e. it's not a working link.

Alexander Hawkins Posted January 7, 2005 Report Posted January 7, 2005 Is the concert still available? I can't seem to find it! I was lucky enough to be there, and won't be forgetting it for a good while, but would love to hear it again! Quote
pryan Posted January 7, 2005 Report Posted January 7, 2005 Yeah, I couldn't find it either when I tried a few days ago. Quote
Alexander Hawkins Posted January 13, 2005 Report Posted January 13, 2005 the now legendary Anthony Braxton Concert at the recent London Jazz Festival Actually, from a purely romantic point of view (and this is also a bit childish, I guess!), it's nice to see this concert being written-up as 'legendary' (it seems to have got a fair bit of that sort of coverage over here), and to think that I was there. I've often thought of these famous gigs 'wouldn't it have been great to be there?'! Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted January 13, 2005 Report Posted January 13, 2005 The BBC are only allowed to archive their broadcasts for 7 days after broadcast. You have to be quick off the mark! Quote
