The debate over “Is Jazz Dead" seems so tedious and dated that it isn't worth addressing any more. Let's agree, jazz is not likely to ever regain its 1930s status as American's “popular" music, any more than classical music will fill stadiums or dance halls. Rather, let's ask “how do we keep jazz vital, ever-evolving, and ...
The Lead Sheet: Twin Cities Jazz, February 4-10
Sometimes our jazz scene seems like a perfect storm—many forces of artistic nature converging on one or two nights. That can make decisions very difficult but there is luxury in having such choices! Don't get lost in hesitation—whatever you choose, you'll be a winner. Highlights, Last Week The Hollywood Cabaret/1930s with Arne Fogel, Maud Hixson and ...
The Best is yet to Come: Roberta Gambarini at the Dakota
At the Dakota on January 31st, Roberta Gambarini was good. Even wonderful. (I did stay for two sets!) But I hesitate to say “amazing." There is no doubt she is a very talented jazz singer who deserves (and gets) serious accolades. I gave her plenty myself a year ago after her stunning sets at the Dakota. ...
The Lead Sheet: Twin Cities Jazz, January 28 - February 3
I'm off to New York in a few weeks and starting to pull out my hair over the conflicting jazz club schedules. But really, in New York or the Twin Cities, I can only go to one gig at a time. And here at home, clubs/stages are rarely more than 20 minutes apart and I don't ...
East Side on the West Side
I always wondered why this quartet called themselves East Side. If anything they seem to play most often on the metro area's west side. Turns out this was the name of one of Reynold Philipsek's compositions that was to be on the playlist of their first gig. Last Sunday, East Side (Clint Hoover on many harmonicas, ...
Experimental Music in the Twin Cities: Improvising over Dis-Chordant Changes
The changing commitment at the Clown Lounge was bad enough. Now one of the few remaining homes for experimental music in the Twin Cities is changing its focus as well. Café Maude, that neighborhood restaurant in Southwest Minneapolis that has offered a surprising range of avant-garde jazz and broad-reaching improvisational music for several years, will discontinue ...
Jazz Uncensored: Blame It on Their Youth
They looked pretty young up there on the Dakota Jazz Club stage, but to me this new generation of jazz musicians looks younger and younger. Or I am just getting older and older. Big names like Roy Haynes, Kenny Barron and Ramsey Lewis come to town with sidemen one or two (or more) generations removed, typically ...
The Lead Sheet: Twin Cities Jazz, January 21-27
The coldest weekend yet... but the music will be plenty hot, with the irreverent Nellie McKay at the Dakota, ever-young Billy Peterson celebrating #60 at the Artists Quarter, the unique sounds of East Side at the Bloomington Center for the Arts—all setting the stage for even more heat with the Roy Hargrove Quintet and Latin All-Stars ...
Dueling Pistosl (Pat and Phil at the Black Dog)
Recently the Twin Cities lost one of its favorite venues for avant-garde music when the Turf Club and its jazz-friendly Clown Lounge changed management.... and music preferences. Still, for a mid-size urban area, some great little spaces remain. The Black Dog Café in St. Paul's Lowertown has long been a haven for improvisers, with its Fantastic ...
The Lead Sheet: Twin Cities Jazz, January 14-20
Snow might have postponed gigs in New York this past week, but we're intrepid in Minnesota! The jazz must go on! Highlights, Last Week For Love of Annie (Dakota): It wasn't a jazz gig per se, but some of the area's heavy hitters joined forces with musicians and entertainers of all ilks for a benefit for ...
