On September 13th, 2010 it will be exactly 70 years ago that one of the most respected and beloved drummers in jazz came into this world. We are deeply honored and extremely proud to be able to open the doors of Montmartre to welcome back Alex Riel for a 10 day celebration of his life and career. Leading up to his 70th birthday, a stellar cast of his past and present key associates will be joining him at various times, including Palle Mikkelborg, Hanne Boel, Annisette, Mads Vinding, Bo Stief, Niels Lan Doky, George Robert and many others.

Santa Cruz has remained one of Alex Riel’s all time favorite bands to play with and it was therefore essential for him to include it in this milestone birthday celebration. The band is as active today as ever and still has some of its original key members in it including keyboard player/ composer Frans Bak, guitarist Poul Halberg and of course Alex Riel himself behind the drums. The current line-up is completed by an all-star cast of some the most celebrated and creative musicians in Denmark today, saxophonist Hans Ulrik and bass legend Bo Stief.

Alex Riel is joined by Denmark’s most prolific 20.00 (8pm) drummers/percussionists: Stefan Pasborg, Birgitte Løkke Larsen and the great Marilyn Mazur, who has had one of the most amazing careers, playing in bands of DKK 375 major icons such as Miles Davis and Wayne Shorter. The line-up is augmented by some extremely exciting guest stars: One of Denmark’s cultural icons, trumpeter Palle Mikkelborg, the amazing vocalist Annisette of the ultra-legendary rock band Savage Rose that Alex Riel was once a part of, and Jesper Tuxen, the Hammond B3 organist from the group Ibrahim Electric. Don’t miss the beat! ALEX RIEL 70TH BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION AT MONTMARTRE THURSDAY BOEL, KARLZON, VINDING & RIEL Sep 09 20.00 (8pm) Hanne Boel (vocal / DK), Jacob Karlsson (piano / SE), Mads Vinding (bass / DK), Alex Riel (drums / DK) DKK 375 One of the most popular Danish singers of several decades, Hanne Boel, is performing at Montmartre for her first time tonight. She is known to cover several genres such as pop, rock and soul, but tonight we are going to hear her in a jazz context. Also on stage, the very popular Swedish pianist Jacob Karlzon will be joining. Karlzon played with Boel during this year’s Copenha- gen Jazz Festival, and recently he also visited Montmartre as part of the Vik- toria Tolstoy Group. Joining Boel and Karlzon we have the legendary Danish bass player Mads Vinding and of course the master of ceremonies, Alex Riel himself. Truly a spectacular Scandinavian all-star line-up. ALEX RIEL 70TH BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION AT MONTMARTRE FRIDAY RIEL/LUNDGAARD/ROBERT/MORONI Sep 10 20.00 (8pm) George Robert (alto sax / USA-Z), Dado Moroni (piano / I) Jesper Lundgaard (bass / DK), Alex Riel (drums / DK) DKK 375 SATURDAY During the first month of Molntmartre’s reopening, one of the major revela- tions proved to be the incredible Swiss-American alto saxophonist George Sep 11 Robert who played with Alex Riel as part of our Stan Getz Tribute. The two 20.00 (8pm) had an instant musical chemistry and quickly became great friends as well. An international all-star group with George Robert in front seemed like a natural DKK 375 conclusion on this 10 day celebration of Alex’s 70th birthday. Joining them on SUNDAY stage to complete the all-star quartet are one of Denmark’s (and the world’s) all-time greatest bassists, Jesper Lundgaard, and one of Italy’s most pro- Sep 12 minent jazz pianists, the amazing Dado Moroni. 20.00 (8pm) DKK 375 IN PRAISE OF THE LEGENDARY JAZZ FUSION GROUP WEDNESDAY WEATHER REPORT TRIBUTE Sep 15 20.00 (8pm) Simon Spang-Hanssen (tenor & soprano saxophones / DK), Jørgen Emborg (keyboards / DK), Bo Stief (bass / DK), Niclas Campagnol (drums / SE-I), DKK 350 Ayi Salomon (percussion / Africa) THURSDAY By 1970 Joe Zawinul and Wayne Shorter had both left the Miles Davis group Sep 16 and formed their own group called “Weather Report” which went on to 20.00 (8pm) become not only one of the most innovative groups of all time but also one of the most popular groups in jazz history. During one of their first tours, DKK 350 Weather Report actually played right here at the Montmartre. A powerful and FRIDAY multi-cultural cast of five of Copenhagen’s most prolific musicians now join their forces to revisit some of the most iconic tunes of the jazz/fusion era, Sep 17 from timeless Weather Report albums such as “Mr. Gone”, “Black Market”, 20.00 (8pm) “Heavy Weather”, “Tale Spinnin’” and others. DKK 350 THE QUINTESSENTIAL SCANDINAVIAN VOCAL GENIUS SATURDAY LISA NILSSON Sep 18 20.00 (8pm) Lisa Nilsson (vocal / SE), João Castilho (guitar / BR), Sebastian Notini (percussion / SE) DKK 450 It’s hard to imagine a Scandinavian vocalist who is more loved and admired than Swe- SUNDAY den’s Lisa Nilsson. Since her major breakthrough in the early 1990s she has relentlessly and continuously compelled, inspired and deeply moved audiences all over Scandina- Sep 19 via and beyond, and mastering a variety of music genres. We are incredibly proud to 20.00 (8pm) welcome Lisa for her first engagement in the newly reopened Montmartre, especially DKK 450 as we consider her a part of the family, since she was one of the lead characters in Niels Lan Doky’s feature documentary film from 2005 “Between a Smile and a Tear” MONDAY which pioneered the idea of a reopened Montmartre here in Store Regnegade. Lisa has spent a lot of time in Brazil in recent years, she even lived there part time Sep 20 in Rio for a while and has done several recording projects there, one of which she is 20.00 (8pm) presenting to us tonight. DKK 450 MAJOR BRAZILIAN LEGEND MEETS SCANDINAVIAN ICON TUESDAY LISA NILSSON Sep 21 WITH SPECIAL GUEST IVAN LINS 20.00 (8pm) DDK 550 Lisa Nilsson (vocal / SE), Ivan Lins (vocal & piano / SE), João Castilho (guitar / BR), WEDNESDAY Sebastian Notini (percussion / SE) Sep 22 For her remaining two shows at Montmartre, Lisa Nilsson has invited one of her biggest 20.00 (8pm) idols to guest appear with her, the incredible and legendary singer/songwriter and true DKK 550 giant of Brazilian music, Mr. Ivan Lins.

    Gábor Juhász - Palle Mikkelborg P (2004) Titre: 60/40

    Artiste: Gábor Juhász - Palle Mikkelborg P (2004) Titre: 60/40 L’aspect rythmique de l’existence La vie se fige parfois dans une certaine forme d’immobilité – du moins, elle semble l’être, lorsque vous vous trouvez seul en forêt, par exemple, retenant votre souffle, sans un seul clignotement des yeux. La forme rythmique est beaucoup plus évidente ; respiration, battements du cœur, jours, années, amour, vie... musique. J’ai entendu dire que les cycles rythmiques complexes de la musique indienne reproduisent le cours des étoiles. L’indescriptible et difficile rubato ressemble, quant à lui, à la plupart des cycles de l’existence : imprévisible. Le jazz vient du cœur, et il bat au rythme du cœur. Je remercie particulièrement mes amis Elemér, József, Péter, András et Zoltán, un groupe fort de ses connaissances sur le rythme, pour leur art et leur amour. Un grand merci également à Helen et à Palle dont la musique et l’amitié enrichissent mon existence. Je suis reconnaissant à Palle à plus d’un titre : lorsque je l’entends jouer de la trompette (retenant mon souffle, sans cligner des yeux), je peux sentir la présence de cette forme d’immobilité qui accompagne notre vie. Il est le seul à y arriver. Gábor Juhász J’ai rencontré Gábor pour la première fois au cours d’une soirée pluvieuse à Budapest, ou je donnais un concert avec Helen et Terje. Nous nous sommes séparés avec la promesse de se revoir et de jouer ensemble. Peu de temps après, György Wallner entra en contact avec moi et me demanda si je désirais jouer sur le prochain CD de Gábor et si je voulais également apporter quelques-uns de mes propres airs à enregistrer.

    GERRY MULLIGAN DISCOGRAPHY GERRY MULLIGAN RECORDINGS, CONCERTS AND WHEREABOUTS by Gérard Dugelay, France and Kenneth Hallqvist, Sweden January 2011 Gerry Mulligan DISCOGRAPHY - Recordings, Concerts and Whereabouts by Gérard Dugelay & Kenneth Hallqvist - page No. 1 PREFACE BY GERARD DUGELAY I fell in love when I was younger I was a young jazz fan, when I discovered the music of Gerry Mulligan through a birthday gift from my father. This album was “Gerry Mulligan & Astor Piazzolla”. But it was through “Song for Strayhorn” (Carnegie Hall concert CTI album) I fell in love with the music of Gerry Mulligan. My impressions were: “How great this man is to be able to compose so nicely!, to improvise so marvellously! and to give us such feelings!” Step by step my interest for the music increased I bought regularly his albums and I became crazy from the Concert Jazz Band LPs. Then I appreciated the pianoless Quartets with Bob Brookmeyer (The Pleyel Concerts, which are easily available in France) and with Chet Baker. Just married with Danielle, I spent some days of our honey moon at Antwerp (Belgium) and I had the chance to see the Gerry Mulligan Orchestra in concert. After the concert my wife said: “During some songs I had lost you, you were with the music of Gerry Mulligan!!!” During these 30 years of travel in the music of Jeru, I bought many bootleg albums. One was very important, because it gave me a new direction in my passion: the discographical part. This was the album “Gerry Mulligan – Vol. 2, Live in Stockholm, May 1957”.

    Dan Hicks’ Caucasian Hip-Hop For Hicksters Published February 19, 2015 | Copyright @2015 Straight Ahead Media Author: Steve Roby Showdate : Feb. 18, 2015 Performance Venue : Yoshi’s Oakland Bay Area legend Dan Hicks performed to a sold-out crowd at Yoshi’s on Wednesday. The audience was made up of his loyal fans (Hicksters) who probably first heard his music on KSAN, Jive 95, back in 1969. At age 11, Hicks started out as a drummer, and was heavily influenced by jazz and Dixieland music, often playing dances at the VFW. During the folk revival of the ‘60s, he picked up a guitar, and would go to hootenannies while attending San Francisco State. Hicks began writing songs, an eclectic mix of Western swing, folk, jazz, and blues, and eventually formed Dan Hicks and his Hot Licks. His offbeat humor filtered its way into his stage act. Today, with tongue firmly planted in cheek, Hicks sums up his special genre as “Caucasian hip-hop.” Over four decades later, Hicks still delivers a unique performance, and Wednesday’s show was jammed with many great moments. One of the evenings highlights was the classic “I Scare Myself,” which Hicks is still unclear if it’s a love song when he wrote it back in 1969. “I was either in love, or I’d just eaten a big hashish brownie,” recalled Hicks. Adding to the song’s paranoia theme, back-up singers Daria and Roberta Donnay dawned dark shades while Benito Cortez played a chilling violin solo complete with creepy horror movie sound effects.

  • Mark Padmore

    Mark Padmore

    ` BRITTEN Death in Venice, Royal Opera House, Covent Garden At the centre, there’s a tour de force performance by tenor Mark Padmore as the blocked writer Aschenbach, his voice apparently as fresh at the end of this long evening as at the beginning Erica Jeal, The Guardian, November 2019 Tenor Mark Padmore, exquisite of voice, presents Aschenbach’s physical and spiritual breakdown with extraordinary detail and insight Warwick Thompson, Metro, November 2019 Mark Padmore deals in a masterly fashion with the English words, so poetically charged by librettist Myfanwy Piper, and was in his best voice, teasing out beauty with every lyrical solo. Richard Fairman, The Financial Times, November 2019 Mark Padmore is on similarly excellent form as Aschenbach. Padmore doesn’t do much opera, but this role is perfect for him………Padmore is able to bring acute emotion to these scenes, without extravagance or lyricism, drawing the scale of the drama back down to the personal level. Mark Padmore Gavin Dixon, The Arts Desk, November 2019 Tenor ..It’s the performances of Mark Padmore and Gerald Finley that make the show unmissable. …Padmore……conveys so believably the tragic arc of Aschenbach’s disintegration, from pompous self-regard through confusion and brief ecstatic abandon to physical and moral collapse. And the diction of both singers is so clear that surtitles are superfluous. You will not encounter a finer performance of this autumnal masterpiece. Richard Morrison, The Times, November 2019 BACH St John Passion¸ Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, Simon Rattle. Royal Festival Hall, London Mark Padmore has given us many excellent evangelists, yet this heartfelt, aggrieved, intimate take on St John’s gospel narrative, sometimes spiked with penetrating pauses, still seemed exceptional.
