Stellvertretend für alle Highlights dieses Jahres 11 REVIEWS möchte ich an das Konzert des Don Ellis Tribute Orchestra 16 PREVIEWS feat. Thomas Gansch am diesjährigen Generation Fes- 21 ZKB-JAZZPREIS 2010/2011 tival in Frauenfeld erinnern. 22 PIERRE FAVRE Da stand eine Big Band auf der Bühne, welche alle Timing kommt aus dem Inneren Anforderungen erfüllte. Ein kompakter Tonkörper, be- stehend aus hervorragenden Einzelmusikern, zwei BLUES’N’ROOTS Schlagzeugern mit Extrapower und einem Conductor mit 26 ART TIPALDI besonderen Eigenschaften, diese Big Band am höchsten 28 SAN PEDRO SLIM Limit zu bewegen. Dazu kam der begnadete Trompeter 29 WALTER BAUMGARTNER und Arrangeur Thomas Gansch. Der aus St. Pölten 30 HÖRBAR Blues stammende Bläser, Sohn eines Komponisten und Blas- kapellmeisters, führte durch das anspruchsvolle Pro- 35 DANILO REA gramm – mit traumwandlerischer Sicherheit und dem 37 CHRISTY DORAN für Österreich typischen Humor. PEGGY CHEW Erstmals zum 30. Todestag von Don Ellis, 2008, 38 stellten Thomas Gansch und der Conductor Marcel 40 LEO TARDIN Geiselhart ein Programm für ein Tribute-Orchester im 41 WOLFGANG DAUNER Wiener “Porgy und Bess” zusammen. Nun traten sie 42 ROLF LIEBERMANN mit neuem Programm und den legendären Songs wie 44 HÖRBAR Jazz “Turkish Bath”, “Indian Lady” oder “Pussy Wiggle 55 SEH/LESBAR Stomp” in Frauenfeld auf. 56 ANDERS HÖREN – Sylwia Zytynska Und es wurde für mich das Konzert des Jahres. Der 58 NEW PROJECTS Saal kochte, das Publikum feuerte die Band an, wie Sarah Buechi, Christian Zehnder, man es nur von Popkonzerten kennt, und die Big Band Fredrika Stahl, Pedra Preta, Herbie Kopf steigerte sich in einen wahren Spielrausch. So müssen 61 KONZERT-TIPPS Konzerte sein, mitreissend und nicht intellektuell mit- Club- und Festivalprogramme wippend.

Quando siamo partiti, nel ’96, pensavamo semplicemente di fare qualcosa di diverso, se possibile di significativo, qualcosa che in città non c’era e che, secondo noi, la città avrebbe apprezzato. 2 Certamente non pensavamo a quanta strada avremmo potuto fare ma non vi è dubbio che quindici anni di festival sembrano ora aver dato ragione alle intuizioni di allora. La nostra idea si chiamò “New Conversations”, nuove conversa- zioni, nuovi modi di parlarsi, di incontrarsi, di confrontarsi: nel jazz, nella musica, nella società e con tutti quelli che avevano voglia di mettersi in gioco per ritrovarsi in una Vicenza nuova, se possibile più europea. Così, ancora una volta, anche quest’anno Vicenza uscirà di casa, per le strade e nelle piazze, per entrare nei teatri e nei locali, nelle chiese e nei musei, nei cinema e ancora all’aperto. Il tutto, con uno scopo sostanzialmente semplice: guardarsi intorno, e dentro di sé, grazie all’unico linguaggio che non ha bisogno di traduzioni, quello della musica. E di tutte le musiche, il jazz è quella che da sempre più di tutte ha cercato nuovi incontri, senza il bisogno di traduttori, né di media- tori.

    ECM Pierre Favre Ensemble Fleuve Philipp Schaufelberger: guitar; Frank Kroll: soprano saxophone, bass clarinet; Hélène Breschand: harp; Michel Godard: tuba, serpent; Wolfgang Zwiauer: bass guitar; Bänz Oester: double-bass; Pierre Favre: percussion, drums ECM 1977 CD 6024 985 6355 (7) Release: October 2006 Swiss drummer-composer Pierre Favre has been bringing new impulses to European jazz since the 1960s. At home with all of the music’s styles, from New Orleans to bop to free playing, he is in every context a uniquely lyrical, melodically-minded drummer. The range of ECM musicians with whom Favre has played gives an index of his open-mindedness: from Dino Saluzzi to Arvo Pärt to John Surman and Barre Phillips. His leader dates for the label have included discs with Kenny Wheeler and Steve Swallow (“Window Steps”, 1995) with singer Tamia (“De la nuit... le jour”, 1987, “Solitudes”, 1991) with fellow percussionists Paul Motian, Fredy Studer and Nana Vasconcelos (1984). “Fleuve” introduces his new ensemble, a group of most unorthodox line-up. With tuba, double-bass and bass guitar, the music does not lack authority at the bottom end when needed, but it is also highly mobile and agile, and is given plenty of room to move inside Manfred Eicher’s spacious production. Its music is elegant, sinuous, poetic, its timbres and textures surprisingly evocative of renaissance music, its lyricism timeless. In Favre’s pieces, the differentiated dynamics, arrangements and melody are influenced and developed primarily from the sound colours of his solo percussion playing. Sometimes drums, harp, bass and guitar function as a core ‘rhythm group’ inside which musical ideas are perpetually interchanged, with tuba/serpent and reeds as frontline voices.
