Hey all, I'll be in Toronto the 3rd weekend in June, which is apparently when the TO jazz festival is. I can't find any schedules or anything online. Anyone have any pointers?

Zenna plays both electric and acoustic harps and keyboards, Linton does drums/percussion and digitals, and they both are credited w/ tapes. For the most part the music is abstract, yet forceful. "Angel Food" plays around with a rock type feel, and Linton likes to employ direct, even driving beats from time to time, but there is always an abundance of free-flowing, even elastic sounds (squeaks, squiggles, buzzes, plucks, chimes) that stands out for me. OWT also has a comp track ("Alive With Pleasure") on Matador's "New York Eye and Ear Control" CD from the following year, also very good. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that both of these are OOP, but I don't think either would be horribly difficult to track down, or that expensive. And I'll second Chad's recommendation of the trio w/ Ranaldo and Hooker, "The Gift of Tongues". I remain....

experimental girls (no zorn content)

I was just wondering which of the artists that are mentioned on this list draw the most girls to the live shows. The most I have seen was at Mark Ribot and the Cubanos although Lovage's performance seemed to have a lot too.

Harp Players
by carlos torres 14 Apr '03

Are there any (free)jazz harp players anyone could mention to me? The only thing that comes close to my mind is Zeena Parkins, but she dosent really do jazz projects. The idea of a harp as an essential instrument in a jazz composition or improvisation sounds rather intriguing to me.

the harp thread prompted me to pull out my sole zeena parkins CD, "isabelle" -- deep, stirring and mysterious -- and coincidently perfect companion to current reading, paul bowles "the sheltering sky." query 1: further zeena recommendations? query 2: who's read isabelle eberhardt? any recommendations there? query 3: headed to samoa at the end of next month. any recommendations of samoa-related literature, fiction or non? -- martin

Other Artists with no known sites: * Carol Emanuel 'Tops of Trees' also on John Zorn's 'FImworks II' and 'Godard/Spillane' * Anne LeBaron 'Musical Railism' also Anne Lebaron / New Music Consort 'Lamentation / Invocation' Anne LeBaron does have a web site, altho at the moment I coulodn't quote you the address. She played (harp!) with most of the European improvisers (Broetzmann, Schlippenbach, et al.) while she was studying with Kagel and Ligeti in 1980. Jerry

I seem to remember the "Spillane" period John Zorn stuff having quite a bit of Harp Sounds, although I don't know if it was a harp player, keyboard, sampler, or what... mushmush __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

I just found this nice song by Eugene Chadbourne: http://www.protest-records.com/mp3/index.html Does anyone know if it was made especially for the occasion or if it comes from an album? - Thierry
