I saw the London gig, at a half full Queen Elizabeth Hall. I'm pretty much in agreement with everything Richard says (including the muddy drum mix, regrettably) and suggest you all check out the webcast when it comes. I particularly liked the deconstruction of the classic jazz "everyone has a solo leading to a triumphant restatement of the theme" convention, in that Ikue Mori's laptop solos completely destroyed the ever-upwards momentum that Blake and Gilmore generated. The people sat behind me were having kittens, but then they were discussing their Dave Brubeck albums during the interval. Dave merely apologised for his President on Sunday night, to the predictable applause. I don't think the Dixie Chicks thing will ever happen to him as, despite being on RCA, he's not what you'd call a mainstream artist. I doubt Joe Public in Buttsville, Arizona will ever know or care who Douglas is. I also think (and here's where I duck for cover) that Jazz fans are far more likely to be left-leaning than Nashville-style Country fans, and therefore far less likely to burn his CDs just because he doesn't agree with the Anglo-American police action in Iraq.

Zorn at Jazztimes.com web site right now!

Wayne Shorter and John Zorn (pictured) were among the handful of musicians honored last night at the American Music Centers (AMC) 2003 award ceremony in New York City. AMC, an organization founded by composer Aaron Copland that supports the proliferation of new American music and runs the Web site newmusicbox.org, awarded Shorter with its Letter of Distinction, putting him on a list with Leonard Bernstein, John Cage, Ornette Coleman, Morton Feldman, Dizzy Gillespie and others. Zorn was given the new Trailblazer Award, which, as the name suggests, recognizes individuals who work to push music into unknown territory. Zorn is one of those, mos def. ===== -That which is Theo "I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours." "to state that god is by nature, unknowable, is to pronounce knowledge of his nature - a contradiction." __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Search - Faster. Easier.

Cheltenham Jazz Festival
by Richard Gardner 06 May '03

06 May '03

Caught two excellent sets at the UK Cheltenham Jazz Festival on Saturday. Uri Caine was the artist in residence and performed on each day. I hoped to catch Bedrock or Mahler but could only make one day so I saw The Goldberg Variations. Very impressive performance by Uri Caine piano, Barbara Walker vocals, Ralph Alessi trumpet, Chris Speed saxophones, Joyce Hammann Violin, Tim Lefebvre bass, Zach Danziger drums, DJ Olive decks. The real star performance came in the evening with Dave Douglas and the Freak In band. The line up was: Dave Douglas trumpet, Seamus Blake tenor saxophone, David Gilmore guitar, Jamie Saft wurlitzer, Ikue Mori electronic percussion, Brad Jones bass, Derrek Phillips drums. The amplification of the drums was poor making them muddy which did not help understand what Ikue Mori was doing down in the mix. I was also not overly impressed by Seamus Blake who held his place but didn't blow me away. However, this is a band that is on fire. They are clearly still new to the material which, in places, is awkward to play. Blake, Saft, Gilmore and Jones were reading all the heads and there were signs of relief when particularly fiendish sections passed sounding fine. Dave Douglas has taken to prowling the stage cueing and urging on soloists not unlike another trumpeter a few years ago. The result is that the Freak In material has moved away from the careful cut and paste of the studio and really stretches out fuelled by the enthusiasm of a band fresh to it. If they are coming to your area go and see them. Apparently the BBC recorded the Sunday night London gig and it is going out on Jazz on 3 (available as a webcast) in a couple of weeks time. Final point, Mr Douglas told the audience it was a joy to play with such an amazing bunch of musicians. He was the fool. There was a pause and he said not as big a fool as our president. Another pause. Did you hear what happened to the Dixie Chicks? If that happens to me I will feel it is an honour.
