jazzweek.com • January 15, 2007 JazzWeek 8 Industry Q&A: Brice Rosenbloom, festival producer and talent buyer

hen someone is a presence on the scene, people are generally referring to a musician who is working with Wdiﬀerent players or playing around a lot. Brice Rosen- bloom isn’t a working musician but he’s certainly a presence thanks to a relatively short but impressive string of projects and jobs. During IAJE, Rosenbloom will present a Winter Jazzfest on Wednesday (January 10) at the Knitting Factory. This will be one-stop shopping for what’s going on in the New York jazz scene now and for the coming years. – Tad Hendrickson

What’s your background in jazz, how did you ﬁrst come to the music? My earliest recollection of jazz was learning about Scott Joplin, Jelly Roll Mor- ton and Louis Armstrong in music class, at my Louisville, Kentucky, grade school. But jazz really came to me from a cross Atlantic exploration. When my brother and I were in our early teens we discovered South African music, and fell in love with the music of Hugh Masekela, Dudu Pukwana, Dollar Brand, Miriam Makeba and others. It was through listening to their music that I was later inspired to explore who they were inﬂuenced by, which brought me back stateside to the music of Satchmo, Bird, Miles, Herbie, Dizzy, Coltrane, Monk, Nina Simone, Mingus, Trane, etc. Can we get an overview of your career in the industry? In 1997 I went out to the Bay Area and worked at the San Francisco Jazz Fes- tival for a season as a member of their production team, assisting with shows such as Cassandra Wilson, Charles Brown, Heath Brothers, Randy Weston, Joshua Redman, Jimmy Smith, Booker T. & The MGs, and others. Although I would have loved remaining in the Bay Area, I was hired by Central Park SummerStage in New York as their Operations Manager overseeing the production and business end of the festival for two seasons. In 1999 I was hired to launch the music series at MAKOR where I worked fulltime for the next four years booking jazz, world, rock, Jewish, experimental and a variety of oth- ➤ er styles; highlights included Norah Jones, Dave Douglas with Misha jazzweek.com • January 15, 2007 JazzWeek 9 Industry Q&A: Brice Rosenbloom (continued)

Mengelberg, Marc Ribot, Antibalas, Soulive, Lila Downs, Matisyahu, Perry Farrell, Derek Trucks, Regina Spektor, Erin McKeown, Gogol Bordello, and countless others. In 2003 I left MAKOR to accept the position as Associate Programmer for Jazz At Lincoln Center with the charge of curating events for their launch season in the new Frederick P Rose Hall that were not exclusively jazz related. These events included a Jazz & Human Rights speech series, Jazz & Dance, Jazz & Spoken Word, Brazilian show featuring Hermeto Pascaol, [I]t takes a lot and a Jazz & Blues series. Following that season I went on to the Knitting Fac- of work but the tory where I booked fulltime for a year before leaving and launching my own consulting company boomBOOM Presents, Inc.

With the success of Winter Jazzfest in the past two years and knowing IAJE would be in New York this year I decided it would be a good idea to expand and try a Winter Jazzfest date during the Jazz Educators conference, again with the goal of exposing a national audience of arts professionals and specific jazz enthusiasts to new and exciting jazz. What kind of help do you have, who do you work with in putting them together? The January 10th Winter Jazzfest during IAJE is titled ‘Jazz Alternatives’ which represents a partnership with Ken Thomson who curated a successful festival under the same title last year during IAJE at Tonic. What kind of vibe do these nights have? Jazz Alternatives on January 10th was originally curated as a mix of contempo- rary jazz newcomers including trumpeter Maurice Brown and guitarist Lio- nel Loueke; experimental groups like Gutbucket, Eyal Maoz’s Edom and the Rudresh Mahanthappa Quartet; international jazz-influenced music of Slavic Soul Party and Mino Cinelu, with a representation of European groups including Antoine Herve with the Moutin brothers, Mina Agossi And Wonder- ful World with special guest vocalist Mark Murphy, among others. The Win- ter Jazzfest Arts Presenters showcase on January 20th is equally eclectic with a nice representation of local ‘downtown’ jazz groups including Steven Bern- stein’s Millennial Territory Group and Gary Lucas’s God’s & Monsters; veterans Roswell Rudd and Henry Grimes; newcomers Dana Leong and Anat Cohen, audience favorites Robert Glasper and Jenny Scheinman, crossover ➤ jazzweek.com • January 15, 2007 JazzWeek 10 Industry Q&A: Brice Rosenbloom (continued)

PICK Charles Tolliver With Love (Blue Note)

ne of the highlights of Andrew Hill’s Time Lines was the trumpet playing of Charles Tolliver. Tolliver had been Oaround since the ’60s, but his performance had such bra- vura that people wondered where the trumpeter had been. With only one album out as a leader since 1975, it’s logical question. With Love isn’t entirely the answer, but Tolliver has been dedi- cating himself to this project in recent years. Featuring 20 players, the band here is a rip-snorting big band that matches up well against such recent units as Dave Holland Big Band and Ger- ald Wilson Orchestra. As a writer and arranger, Tolliver creates a high-energy environments that are swingin’ and imaginative, prone to unexpected twists, and never less than thoroughly satis- fying. The horn cacophony at the end of the title track illustrates his ability to use texture effectively, but the big punch in the gut here is the wholly original reading of “’Round Midnight,” which rises from a horn and piano duet to a brassy apex that keeps all of Monk’s rhythmic angles while leaving very little room to breath. “Right Now,” on the other hand, has a Mancini feel that sounds like it should have been the soundtrack to a car chase in an Otto Contact: Groov Marketing Preminger film. It’s a thankless pursuit in this era (or most any Phone: (877) GROOV 32 era) to lead a big band, but here’s a prime example of why follow- Email: [email protected] ing your muse and going against common perception can be the Add Date: January 15 smartest move of all.

“Smoke Stack” and the mix of intense musicianship and ambient textures on opening cut “Usual Illusion.” Certainly a known ﬁgure on the bandstand and in the studio, this is a ﬁne reminder that Colley is more than a sideman. – Tad Hendrickson Contact: Paula Jo Mastrobuono Email: [email protected] Add Date: Now Release Date: January 30

Faulkner Evans Climbing The Gates (CAP)

IT’S HARD FOR pianists to record a straight-ahead trio album that doesn’t sound like it was inﬂuenced by Bill Evans in some way, and you don’t have to hear but a few moments here to know that the apple didn’t fall far from the tree. Like Bill Evans, Faulkner Evans (no relation) has a nice melodic ear and is prone to soloing in a way that never leaves the tune behind. He’s well supported through- I t’s a long way from the Apollo Theatre to the Apollo out by bassist Cecil program.

Not bad for mer Matt Wilson, who return from his 2002 debut, and a kid whose first experience with the trumpet was as each is given plenty rope to play with. Highlights are the a guest in a New Orleans correction home for wayward boys. Alas, today the arts are dismissed as extravagant upbeat “Talking Rocks,” the jaunty title track and “Luna in most schools, despite the fact that most parents Blue,” which burns with nice blues groove.
