BushWacked- A Spoken Opera began in 1990 with a composition of the same name with lyrics by Jeanne Lee. Written by Whitecage as an evolving oral critique of the political climate of the USA culled from print and internet media, news headlines, interviews and reports. All aspects of media create the centerpiece and original jazz frees the words from the page. Rosi Hertlein will be rendering the Jeanne Lee lyrics.
Rosi Hertlein: Hertlein is a player of very resilient technique. Her phrases and articulation recall Leroy Jenkins, but her tone is fuller and more singing." -- Joe Milazzo
Rozanne Levine: Crystal Clarinets is a model of taste, restraint, and intelligence...Rozanne plays with just a hint of vibrato; she's a lyrical soloist and a deliberate player who pays close attention to texture and dynamics and supports her band mates with refinement and empathy." --Chris Kelsey, Jazz Now
Golda Solomon: Poet Solomon...Think of it as Jack Kerouac revisiting the Mile High City and grabbing a sandwich at the New York Deli while in town." -- Norman Provizer, Rocky Mountain News Mark Whitecage: The man is an absolute master of the alto saxophone and clarinet (not to mention a dab hand at electronics), and one of the finest and most original jazz composers in the world, and has been for years." --Dan Warburton, Paris Transatlantic, Signal to Noise PO'JAZZ at CORNELIA STREET is one big friendly party of good words, good sounds, and good food." -- Gladys Serrano, Mutable Music
