Thank you for joining us with open ears. This year we are more emboldened than ever before to share with you the profound impact of live jazz and its vibrant relevancy today. As jazz advocates, as New Yorkers, as Americans, and as global citizens striving to support equal justice for all humanity we champion this music’s inherent inspiration as a constant beacon of light through times of darkness. In this meaningful year we proudly offer artists Winter Jazzfest stages to respond to injustice, inequality and divisiveness through music. (See page 5 for details on our social justice engagement) Additionally, this season we celebrate the legacy of Thelonious Monk in the year of his 100th Birthday with his repertoire performed by Jason Moran and The Bandwagon, Peter Bernstein and others, plus a unique concert of 12 musicians reimagining the classic 1965 album Solo Monk. We are honored to welcome veteran jazz musi- cians including iconic saxophonist Pharoah Sanders kicking off the festival; Amina Claudine Myers performing solo piano; our Artist-In-Residence drummer Andrew Cyrille performing four different projects; and closing the festival Charlie Haden’s Liberation Music Orchestra with Geri Allen performing a concert for social justice. We are also launching the FREE afternoon Winter Jazzfest Talks series at the New School. On Saturday January 7th join us for a panel discussion titled ‘Social Justice and the Role of Music’ with musicians Terri Lyne Carrington, Samora Pinderhughes, Greg Tate, representatives from the ACLU and Black Lives Matter, and mod- erated by cultural journalist Siddhartha Mitter. On Sunday January 8th don’t miss a live interview with Andrew Cyrille by fellow drummer Johnathan Blake and a panel discussion on the life and legacy of Thelonious Monk. (More details about these talks on page 9) As we are not the only avid jazz enthusiasts, we do expect large crowds throughout the Friday and Saturday nights. To avoid showing up to a completely full venue, please go to winterjazzfest.com/CROWDS for real-time venue capacity updates. We are proud of every single performance and are confident you will savor wherever and whenever you end up. As our community lost many towering figures this past year we would like to dedicate the 2017 festival in memory of Paul Bley, Otis Clay, David Bowie, Maurice White, Malik Isaac Taylor aka Phife Dawg, Gato Barbieri, Prince Rogers Nelson, Bernie Worrell, Rob Wasserman, Bobby Hutcherson, Buckwheat Zydeco, Phil Chess, Victor Bailey, Rudy Van Gelder, Bob Cranshaw, Toots Thielemans, Joe Temperley, Bill Henderson, Naná Vasconcelos, Ernestine Anderson, Joe Ascione, Mose Allison, Leonard Cohen, Sharon Jones, Leon Russell, Pauline Oliveros, Cicily Janus, David Mancuso and all the music spirits guiding us today.

Directly addressing the sense of crisis confronting our nation, we stand firmly with #blacklivesmatter, the American Civil Liberties Union, and seek to address issues of discrimination, police brutality, abuse of power, xenophobia, sexual and gender dis- crimination, that are all threatening to become more deeply institutionalized in the coming administration. Artists have always been at the heart of movement-building and social solidarity. Protest and resistance are central to jazz’s existence from its beginnings as the music of marginalized black Americans. Jazz’s vitality and effectiveness in voicing truths about life in America has not changed. As wide-ranging as music can be in style, format and message, so is the manner in which it reflects the politics and social issues of today. We hope the message and music further inspire audiences, musicians, and fellow presenters to do everything possible to uphold the dignity of our culture. Winter Jazzfest will donate a share of profits from the 2017 festival to organizations who are standing up against discrimination and for social justice in America. We hope to inspire support of these causes now and in the coming years. The 2017 Winter Jazzfest season features many musical performances thematically addressing racial and social justice themes through music, words and poetry including Black Rock Coalition’s “Get-Down Revue,” Craig Harris’ “Breathe,” “Songs of Freedom” (feat. Dee Dee Bridgewater, Theo Bleckmann, Alicia Olatuja, Jazzmeia Horn and music director Ulysses Owens Jr.), Samora Pinderhughes’s “The Transforma- tions Suite,” Jaimeo Brown’s “Transcendence,” Mike Reed’s “Flesh & Bone,” as well as sets from David Murray & Class Struggle, LaFrae Sci & Sonic Black, Ralph

Drummer-composer John Hollenbeck acrobatically explores the dichotomy between brevity and complexity on Super Petite, the eighth release by the critically acclaimed, proudly eccentric Claudia Quintet. The oxymoronic title of the band’s newest album on Cuneiform Records captures the essence of its ten new compositions, which pack all of the wit and virtuosity that listeners have come to expect from the Claudia Quintet into the time frame of radio-friendly pop songs. As always, Hollenbeck’s uncategorizable music – which bridges the worlds of modern jazz and new music in surprising and inventive ways - is realized by Claudia’s longstanding line-up: clarinetist/tenor saxophonist Chris Speed, vibraphonist Matt Moran, bassist Drew Gress, and accordionist Red Wierenga. Over the course of 19 years and 8 albums, the band has forged an astounding chemistry and become expert at juggling mind-boggling dexterity with inviting emotion and spirit. Like the band’s name, the title Super Petite originated as an affectionate nickname for one of the band’s fans.

It’s easy to stay home, waiting for spring and baseball and New York@Night promising to go out once it gets warm. 4 But now is not the time for complacency. There are countless musicians in our fair city that need your support, especially when lethargy seems so appealing. To Interview: Ron McClure quote our Megaphone this month, written by pianist Steve Colson, music is meant 6 by Donald Elfman to help people “reclaim their intellectual and emotional lives.” And that is not hard to do in a city like New York, which even in the dead of winter, gives jazz Artist Feature: Harris Eisenstadt lovers so many choices. Where else can you stroll into the Village Vanguard 7 by Clifford Allen (Happy 75th Anniversary!) every Monday and hear a band with as much history as the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra (On the Cover). Or see as well-traveled a bassist as On The Cover: Vanguard Jazz Orchestra Ron McClure (Interview) take part in the reunion of the legendary Lookout Farm 9 by George Kanzler quartet at Birdland? How about supporting those young, vibrant artists like Encore: Lest We Forget: drummer Harris Eisenstadt (Artist Feature) whose bands and music keep jazz relevant and exciting? 10 Svend Asmussen Joe Maneri In addition to the above, this month includes a Lest We Forget on the late by Ken Dryden by Clifford Allen saxophonist Joe Maneri, honored this month with a tribute concert at the Irondale Center in Brooklyn.

  • Brochure 2017 2018
    partnership IX rassegna 2017/18 ECOTOPIA Direttore Artistico M° Roberto Ottaviano Coordinatore M° Pietro Laera Ecotopia: il romanzo del nostro futuro. È un romanzo utopico scritto da Ernest Callenbach, pubblicato nel 1975. La società descritta nel libro è una delle prime utopistiche nonché ecologiche, ed ebbe inuenza sulla controcultura e sul movimento ambientalista nel corso degli anni '70. Da questa lettura prende spunto la realizzazione del programma di questa edizione. L'idea di Cultura che sostiene la nostra Associazione è quella di una ricchezza ineguagliabile e non barattabile per uno sviluppo forte delle idee, dei sentimenti che debbono guidare ogni azione di buon governo e che non si lasci fuorviare da canoni il cui peso, è sotto gli occhi di tutti, sta raggiungendo il punto critico di non ritorno. Una idea di Cultura, attraverso lo strumento della Musica, che rende possibile una Utopia insieme al suo impatto ecosostenibile. Ed ecco che in una parola ritorna il senso di tutto questo: ECOTOPIA. Come sempre l'Associazione Culturale Nel Gioco del Jazz, che sta per toccare il traguardo della sua decima programmazione, mantiene fede agli assunti iniziali consolidandoli e potenziando, attraverso un maggiore e più efcace impiego di mezzi, il rapporto con un tessuto sociale che è cresciuto ed ha riconosciuto alla stessa Associazione un ruolo ormai trainante nelle attività territoriali. Con i suoi eventi in cartellone, oltre agli appuntamenti fuori programma, le letture editoriali, gli incontri con autori e protagonisti della vita musicale, il coinvolgimento delle scuole, l'Associazione Nel Gioco del Jazz creerà una rete di interessi ed un dibattito vivo che tiene acceso l'interesse sulla creazione di Cultura, ben oltre il momento della messa in scena e del suo circoscritto periodo.

  • John Mcneil Bill Mchenry
    John McNeil John McNeil is regarded as one of the most original and creative jazz artists in the world today. For nearly three decades John has toured with his own groups and has received widespread acclaim as both a player and composer. His highly personal trumpet style communicates across the full range of contemporary jazz, and his compositions combine harmonic freedom with melodic accessibility. John's restless experimentation has kept him on the cutting edge of new music. His background includes the Horace Silver Quintet, Gerry Mulligan, and the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra. John is equally at home in free and structured settings, and this versatility has put him on stage with artists from Slide Hampton to John Abercrombie. John McNeil was born in 1948 in northern California. Due to a lack of available musical instruction in his home town of Yreka, John largely taught himself to play trumpet and read music. By the time he graduated from high school in 1966, John had already begun playing professionally in the northern California region. John moved to New York in the mid-1970's and began a freelance career. His reputation as an innovative trumpet voice began to grow as he played with the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra, and led his own groups at clubs such as Boomer's, the legendary Village jazz room. In the late 70's, John joined the Horace Silver Quintet. Around the same time, he began recording for the SteepleChase label under his own name and toured internationally. Although he has worked as a sideman with such luminaries as Gerry Mulligan, John has consistently led his own groups from about 1980 to the present.

  • Jonny King — Biography
    Jonny King Biography Jonny King has been described by Downbeat as "one of the strongest piano voices" of his generation and a "bandleader who kicks ass." JazzTimes likewise wrote that he “represents the best of what jazz has to offer” as both a performer and composer. A native New Yorker, he grew up in the City's jazz clubs, participating first as a fan and then as a performer. Before he was a teenager, King had already performed onstage with Dizzy Gillespie and appeared on television at the piano alongside his early idol, Earl “Fatha” Hines. Before he was 20, he was already sitting in with Art Blakey and playing his first gigs in New York's many restaurants and clubs. King is primarily self-taught, having neither received any formal music education nor attended any jazz schools. He gratefully credits pianists Mulgrew Miller and Tony Aless as important influences, mentors and personal teachers. Beyond their private instruction, King learned music in the most old-school of ways -- by obsessively listening to records, attending jam sessions, and soaking up as much live and recorded music possible, from the most traditional to the most avant-garde. He continues to approach music the same way, both as a performer and composer. Beginning in the 1990s, King became a steady presence on the City's club scene, featuring his own bands at The Jazz Standard, Smalls, and legendary clubs like Sweet Basil's and Bradley's, his home-away-from-home, where he performed regularly both as leader and sideman. He toured as a member of Joshua Redman's Quartet and the Blue Note Records cooperative band OTB, and worked as the pianist in groups led by saxophonists Steve Wilson, Eddie Harris, Vincent Herring and many others.

  • JAZZ EDUCATION in ISRAEL by LEE CAPLAN a Thesis Submitted to The
    JAZZ EDUCATION IN ISRAEL by LEE CAPLAN A Thesis submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Graduate Program in Jazz History and Research written under the direction of Dr. Henry Martin and approved by ___________________________________ ___________________________________ Newark, New Jersey May,2017 ©2017 Lee Caplan ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS JAZZ EDUCATION IN ISRAEL By LEE CAPLAN Thesis Director Dr. Henry Martin Jazz Education in Israel is indebted to three key figures – Zvi Keren, Arnie Lawrence, and Mel Keller. This thesis explores how Jazz developed in Israel and the role education played. Jazz Education in Israel discusses the origin of educational programs such as the Rimon School of Jazz and Contemporary Music (1985) and the New School Jazz Program (1986). One question that was imperative to this study was attempting to discover exactly how Jazz became a cultural import and export within Israel. Through interviews included in this thesis, this study uncovers just that. The interviews include figures such as Tal Ronen, Dr. Arnon Palty, Dr. Alona Sagee, and Keren Yair Dagan. As technology gets more advanced and the world gets smaller, Jazz finds itself playing a larger role in humanity as a whole. iii Preface The idea for this thesis came to me when I was traveling abroad during the summer of 2015. I was enjoying sightseeing throughout the streets of Ben Yehuda Jerusalem contemplating topics when all of a sudden I came across a jam session. I went over to listen to the music and was extremely surprised to find musicians from all parts of Europe coming together in a small Jazz venue in Israel playing bebop standards at break-neck speeds.
