The Lead Sheet: Twin Cities Jazz, March 11-17
From seasoned veterans to some of our newest jazz artists, the coming week, like the last one, gives us a sense of jazz history and jazz ahead. Highlights, Last Week Jazz (and related music) in the past week covered generations and styles, all vibrant and timely. Zeitgeist at Studio Z (3/5). I caught the third night ...
Foodie Jazz -- Manhattan Sound Bites
Every time I go to New York, friends roll their eyes and say something about the high prices for dining and lodging. My experience—there's not much difference between finding good jazz and good food in New York. It's everywhere you turn, often cheap, and often the best you've ever experienced. Even by accident. From my recent ...
The Lead Sheet: Twin Cities Jazz, March 4-10
Big voices on small stages rule this coming week, with the Dakota hosting Patti Austin and Simone, Orchestra Hall featuring Michael Feinstein, and local songbirds Maud Hixson, Lucia Newell, Rhonda Laurie, Charmin Michele, Vicky Mountain and more in the clubs. Highlights, Last Week The Dakota Combo at the Dakota (2/27). Hot off their “Mingus Spirit" performance ...
Jazz Around Town
A few recent gigs in the Twin Towns not only keep the jazz flame alive, but remind us that one of the genre's historically significant artifacts—gathering and reinterpreting sounds—is its insurance of a vibrant future. Some would not define Lizz Wright as a “jazz singer" despite her use of improvisation and roots in the blues. Hers ...
The Lead Sheet: Twin Cities Jazz, February 25-March 3
I love New York.... But also appreciate the Twin Cities jazz scene when I return. There are not as many choices at one moment. But I can only go to one thing at a time. And no one here is charging $20 minimums on top of cover charges. Highlights, Last Week Most of mine were in ...
Mingus Spirit: The Dakota Combo in New York

There were 12 bands selected from applicants, ...

The big gig among big gigs—the Dakota Combo directed by Adam Linz in the finals of the Charles Mingus High School Band/Combo Competition, to be held this weekend at the Manhattan School of Music. Adam notes that ...
From Israel to New York to St Paul: Roni Ben-Hur at the JCC
The St. Paul Jewish Community Center is not generally on the jazz map, but perhaps it should be. Once per year, the JCC turns its auditorium into a jazz hall to feature a visiting Israeli performer. (And there's a growing list to choose from, as the Israeli jazz diaspora continues to bring more and more talents ...
Bringing Jazz Back to the Mainstream: And the Grammy Goes To....
...Esperanza Spalding. Given the remarkable rise of this amazing bassist/vocalist/composer, her nomination and even her winning of a Grammy should not seem all that surprising.... Except for one thing. Spalding won the award last night for Best New Artist. Not “Best New Jazz Artist." Spalding won the award over more obvious stars like Justin Bieber. No ...
The Lead Sheet: Twin Cities Jazz, February 11-17
Again, a busy jazzy weekend in the Twin Cities! Weather should be a plus, and as the snow melts, the jazz steam rises!! Highlights, Last Week My friend Ray Hayes assures me I missed the best show in a long time—Matthew Shipp solo piano at the Loring Theater. I trust Ray's judgment. He tossed off his ...
