Adam Simmons with Komeda, Jazz and Pierogi RR2020 Adam Simmons Komeda Adam Simmons with Komeda, jazz and pierogi RR2020_Adam Simmons_Komeda [Music] Welcome to the Victorian Seniors Festival, In the Groove, Radio Reimagined in 2020. This project has been produced on the lands of the Woi Wurrung and Boon Wurrung peoples of the Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to Elders, past, present and emerging and welcome all First Nations people listening today. As part of our music series, please Adam Simmons with Komeda, Jazz and Pierogi. [Music] [Applause] [Polish ]. Hello, I'm Adam Simmons and I love pierogi, paczki and jazz. I'm going to share some insights into my latest project, Zatoczka. This concert was premiered late last year at Deakin Edge in Federation Square at the centre of Melbourne for the inaugural Polish music day as a tribute Krzysztof Komeda. Described as Poland's most important jazz artist, pianist Krzysztof Komeda was also a prolific film composer with over 40 films to his credit, most notably Roman Polanski's Knife in the Water, Cul de Sac, the Fearless Vampire Killers and in 1968, Rosemary's Baby. His 1965 album, Astigmatic, is widely regarded as the album that established a distinctly European voice in jazz. Unfortunately, his life was cut short at the age of 37 after a tragic accident. I was invited by Robert Domanski, the artistic director of the Polish Film Festival, to present a concert to celebrate Komeda's contribution as a film composer and to commemorate the 50th anniversary of his untimely passing. For this concert, given it was being presented by the Polish Film Festival, I wanted to include a visual aspect. Given that music is usually composed in response to a film and often in the background, on this occasion I wanted to flip that around and use the music as the inspiration for the film. I created a kind of aural storyline encompassing a mix of Komeda's film and jazz works. This was then used by video artist, Jean Poole, as the starting point for him to develop the visual language. He filmed a load of footage around the Mary Creek area near where we both live. This is where the name of the project comes with zatoczka being the Google translation of creek. Then on the night, Jean Poole improvised a live film in response to the music. The music you’re listening to is from that night performed by the Adam Simmons Creative Music ensemble with very special guests, Tony Gould on piano and Deborah Kayser on voice. 1 [Music] So, what's my connection to Poland? I'm a half-Sri Lankan, half-Anglo Aussie. So, to be honest before 1999, I knew very little about Poland or it's culture but that year, I was playing with the Adam Simmons Quartet at the Wangaratta Festival Jazz and Blues and we did a tune of mine called Poles Apart. Just after I announce it, the front row erupts. "Woo, go the Poles." Turns out there were about 8 to 10 Poles in the audience. After the gig, they bought a bunch of CDs and got me to sign them and we got to talking and then a week later, one of them, Yarrick Voycheck, came to see another of my bands, New Blood, and said, "Oh, you'd be great in Poland." Sure enough, a year later we were doing a month- long tour across Poland for our first European tour. Since then, I've enjoyed a number of collaborations with members of the Polish community, both here and in Poland, involving music and visual art. I've spent time learning some of the language and I've developed a strong love for Polish cuisine, especially pierogi ruski, potato and cheese filled dumplings, and paczki which are plum jam filled donuts, and I've found that Polish people are really proud of their culture and they're warm in their hospitality and humour. I've also learnt that jazz has a long history in Poland, partly as it was one of the few things from the west that was available to the Poles via radio, and Komeda is central in that story. Komeda has been a constant talking point from my first encounter and he really is a household name like a Miles Davis or James Morrison, and he's held in high regard by the Polish people. So, when the opportunity was offered to me by the Polish Film Festival to do this concert, I knew it was one to grab with both hands. [Music] Komeda's music for me has a lovely mix of nostalgia and timelessness. It speaks of the fifties and sixties but there is something contemporary as well at the same time. What resonates for me is the clarity in his composition that has a simplicity at its core. That doesn't necessarily mean easy or basic. As a comparison, equals MC squared is a simple formula but it has heavy ramifications. His music often has a beautiful haunting lyricism but there are also less conventional shapes and structures which do have a logic and they contribute to his more idiosyncratic voice. In arranging the music, I tried to identify these ideas so instead of just replicating the music, that we would really play with the music and with this in mind, Tony Gould was ideal for the project. He really is a national living treasure. He was one of my main lecturers when I attended the Victorian College of the Arts. He's a pianist of immense beauty and touch with a good dash of larrikin wit thrown in. I'm never quite sure what Tony's going to do and I'm not sure he is either. [Applause] [Music] The Creative Music Ensemble members are well used to my rambling and contradictory instructions, but I trust them implicitly to make their personal contributions to the music. It seems Komeda really encouraged that from his musicians also, often giving very little specific verbal direction but leaving it open for the musicians to explore. I'm not quite sure when but I do look forward to being able to present zatoczka again. The fact that Jean Poole's film was mixed live means it will never be experienced the same twice, and I'm glad we recorded the premiere which was performed all together to a full house. I believe that the energy 2 generated between artists and an audience has been captured here and I'm grateful to all of the artists and the team involved in realising this project. [Polish ] Thank you and see you later. [Music] You've been listening to the Victorian Seniors Festival, In the Groove, Radio Reimagined in 2020.

  • 'Helikon' Was Also a Favourite of Zbyszek Seifert's. Both His Quartet
    man of the light. THE LIFE AND WORK OF ZBIGNIEW SEIFERT The ‘Helikon’ was also a favourite of Zbyszek Seifert’s. Both his quartet and (later) Stańko’s quintet held their rehearsals there, and that’s where he played his first jazz concerts. It was in this club that he met jazz musicians and fans. As its musicians became more and more popular, the Jazz-Club found it could not seat all the audience and so concerts began to be held in other places. Nonetheless, the first steps on the ensemble’s career path were inextricably linked with that magical place. Jazz-Club “Helikon”.

Andrzej Jaroszewski enthusiastically hailed their performance as foreshadowing the coming of a new generation of jazz musicians, the debut of a modern jazz band. In a brochure entitled “Cracow Jazz Festival – 14th Edition”, Krzysztof Sadowski wrote: On Friday evening the second debutant was Zbigniew Seifert, an alto sax player influenced by John Coltrane and Zbigniew Namysłowski. From the latter, he took the pure intonation and confident presentation of frequently complicated melodic phrases. Especially in the theme of McCoy Tyner’s “Three Flowers” the whole ensemble gave us a sample of solid modern jazz.

  • Leszek Możdżer
    Leszek Mo żdżer Komeda ACT 9516-2 German Release Date: June 24, 2011 For many years, jazz and classical music trod a common path of mutual enrichment, with Bartók to Stokowski and Horowitz on the one hand, and Art Tatum, George Gershwin and even Benny Goodman on the other. This relationship was fractured by the break in culture caused by the Second World War, and despite several attempts – for example, the “Third Stream” movement at the end of the 1950s – it took a long time before the exchange between the two most important trends in art music became matter of course again. If jazz is today once again regarded as the “second classical music”, it is because of artists such as the Polish pianist Leszek Mo żdżer. The classically trained pianist was born in 1971. While he didn’t discover jazz himself until he was 18 years old, he quickly made a name for himself and is today celebrated like a pop star in Poland, where he has played with the country’s most important jazz musicians including Tomasz Stanko and Michal Urbaniak. Since 1994 until the present day he has been voted, almost without exception, the best pianist of the country by the Polish Jazzforum magazine. Mo żdżer has also made a name for himself internationally, particularly alongside Swedish bassist Lars Danielsson whose music is similarly dedicated to melody. He described Mo żdżer as, “the ideal pianist for me” and recorded both his last albums – “Pasodoble” (2007) and “Tarantella” (2009) – with him. American jazz icons such as Pat Metheny, Lester Bowie and Archie Shepp are also vocal in their appreciation of his work.

Four hundred years later, a university in Poznań, called the Piast University, was founded. Its name derived from the fi rst Polish royal dynasty. The Pharmaceutical Department was formed in 1919 and a year later the Faculty of Medicine was founded within it. The Chair of Dentistry was created in 1929. In the time between the two world wars, the level of instruction in medicine, pharmacy and dentistry at Poznań University was very high. With the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939 Poznań University was closed and remained so for the duration of the war. However, its professors did not cease teaching. In 1941, the Polish School of Medicine at the University of Edinburgh was founded. Its fi rst Dean was Professor Antoni Jurasz of Poznań University, an eminent surgeon. In 1950, the Medical Faculty with the section of Dentistry and the Faculty of Pharmacy were detached to form an independent school — the University of Medical Sciences in Poznań.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION Comprising a film retrospective, a gallery exhibition, live concerts, and a panel discussion, Jazz Score celebrates some of the best original jazz composed for the cinema from the 1950s to the present. The film retrospective opens on April 17 with director Arthur Penn introducing a weeklong theatrical run of his 1965 film Mickey One, featuring Warren Beatty and a score by Eddie Sauter with saxophone solos by Stan Getz. It continues with fiction and documentary films, and experimental and animated shorts from countries as far ranging as France, Brazil, Japan, South Africa, and the United States. In 1951, Alex North’s music for Elia Kazan’s A Streetcar Named Desire opened up jazz scoring to a new generation of composers, including Elmer Bernstein, Duke Ellington, Bernard Herrmann, Quincy Jones, Henry Mancini, and Lalo Schifrin. Significantly, this development coincided with the breakup of the Hollywood studio system, and with the commercial and artistic success of inde- pendent film directors like John Cassavetes Shadows( , 1959, and Too Late Blues, 1961), Shirley Clarke (The Connection, 1962, and The Cool World, 1964), Robert Frank and Alfred Leslie (Pull My Daisy, 1959), and Herbert Danska (Sweet Love, Bitter, 1968), who experimented not only with dramatic themes and film genres, but also with more improvisational forms of postwar jazz like hard bop, free jazz, modal jazz, and Afro-Cuban. This was equally true of New Wave filmmakers and a younger generation of European and Japanese directors in the 1950s and 1960s—including Bernardo Bertolucci, Jean-Luc Godard, Jørgen Leth, American expatriate Joseph Losey, Louis Malle, Mikio Naruse, Roman Polanski, Jerzy Skolimowski, and Roger Vadim—who enlisted such seminal artists as Gato Barbieri, Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie, Krzysztof Komeda, John Lewis and the Modern Jazz Quartet, Thelonious Monk, Bud Powell, Tôru Takemitsu, and others to compose jazz scores that would reinforce or provide a counterpoint to their dis- jointed imagery.

  • SOME BRIEF COMMENTS on JAZZ in FILM by Ian Muldoon* ______
    SOME BRIEF COMMENTS ON JAZZ IN FILM by Ian Muldoon* _______________________________________________________ ut in western NSW at the beginning of the 20th century my grandfather encountered some Afghan camel drivers and their charges. Pleasantries were O exchanged (possibly with some language difficulties) tea drunk and perhaps some food shared. At one point my grandfather assembled his wind- up record player and played a disc of an aria by Enrico Caruso at which point the camel drivers leapt to their feet, shouting, gasping, gesticulating at the sounds coming from wood, shellac and metal. Similar reactions were achieved with a much more sophisticated Parisian audience around the same time with a silent film of a train coming toward the audience causing that audience to scream, jump out of the way and generally behave like Afghan camel drivers when first encountering a record player. _________________________________________________________ *Ian Muldoon has been a jazz enthusiast since, as a child, he heard his aunt play Fats Waller and Duke Ellington on the household piano. At around ten years of age he was given a windup record player and a modest supply of steel needles, on which he played his record collection, consisting of two 78s, one featuring Dizzy Gillespie and the other Fats Waller. He listened to Eric Child’s ABC radio programs in the 1950s and has been a prolific jazz records collector wherever he lived in the world, including Sydney, Kowloon, Winnipeg, New York and Melbourne. He has been a jazz broadcaster on a number of community radio stations in various cities, and now lives in Coffs Harbour.
