Photos by Tony Mottola. 2011 “Ring dem Bells!” azzfest 2011 on June 11 at the College of Saint J Elizabeth in Morristown kicked off with the ringing of the noon bells at Anunciation Hall just as Emily Asher’s Garden Party was set to begin playing outside its entrance. That caused only a minor setback at our brand new venue where the benefits outweighed any clouds and drizzle. All activities had been seamlessly moved indoors, which turned out to be a boon for one and all, with no missed notes. Dolan Hall proved to be a beautiful venue and the Jazz Lobsters easily fanned across its stage. The languid start to “Splanky” gave way to a crisp, sparking horn crescendo.

Our tireless pursuit in offering our Citizens of Jazzlandia the finest examples of emerging, established and legacy artists continued unabated this past Fall with eleven shows: Raul Midón, Kamasi Washington, Camila Meza, Bill Frisell, McCoy Tyner, Steve Lehman, and Dave Douglas, among others. We have many great shows planned for the coming season T. S. MONK including Dave Holland, Donny McCaslin, Gerald Clayton, Billy Childs, Anat Cohen, Eliane Elias, Manuel Valera, Marquis Hill and Blacktet, Ambrose Akinmusire, and major surprises to be announced soon. The venues with whom we partner are integral in making sure we can keep bringing this high level of artistry for Portlanders to admire and discover.
