Kurt: But (as Bill Dixon said at his press conference) why does that have to be the policy? Also recall that Gebbia, Ochs and I think a third hornman sat in with Univers Zero at the end of its show one year. And Nik Dikovsky (sp) made a fine addition to a Michael Doneda - Benat Achiary (again sp) concert another time. Ken --- Kurt Gottschalk <ecstasymule@hotmail.com> wrote:

One massive missed opportunity was not utilizing the 25 British musicians of Tapestry in other concerts. For a start there could have been a Dunmall-Rogers duo concert, or a way for those two to play with a drummer plus/and or another musician such as saxophonist Simon Picard.

i think such combining and recombining, however, would be pretty counter to victo's usual programming. i won't speculate as to why, but it seems victo present pretty clear and unchanging festivals, unlike the special guest and late night jam fetes more common in strictly jazz festivals.
