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. Bari sax man Larry McKenna was featured as arranger and soloist on “You Go to My Head,” and his velvety, luxurious tone sparked bandleader/ pianist James Lafferty’s continued on page 30 New JerseyJazzSociety in this issue: Deconstructing Dave NEW JERSEY JAZZ SOCIETY April Jazz Social: Dave Frank . 2 Dave Frank digs into Dave McKenna at April Jazz Social Bulletin Board . 2 Governor’s Island Jazz Party 2011 . 3 Text and photos Mail Bag. 3 by Tony Mottola NJJS Calendar . 3 Co-Editor Jersey Jazz Jazz Trivia . 4 Editor’s Pick/Deadlines/NJJS Info . 6 ianist and educator May Jazz Social: Sue Giles . 52 PDave Frank explored Crow’s Nest . 53 the piano techniques and Book Winner . 54 New/Renewed Members . 55 artistry of the legendary Change of Address/Support solo pianist Dave NJJS/Volunteer/JOIN NJJS . 55 McKenna at NJJS’s STORIES April Jazz Social.

  • A Spasso Con Frank
    Giordano Montecchi A SPASSO CON FRANK Melologo underground intorno al grande Frank Zappa da Baltimora reinvenzioni zappiane di Giorgio Casadei e Emilio Galante 0 [SENZA MUSICA] A Mister Edgard Varèse, 188 Sullivan Street, New York. Agosto 1957 Gentile Signore, forse ricorderà la mia stupida telefonata dello scorso gennaio... Mi chiamo Frank Zappa e ho 16 anni. Le sembrerà strano ma è da quando ho 13 anni che mi interesso alla sua musica. All’epoca l’unica formazione musicale che avevo era qualche rudimento di tecnica del tamburo. Negli ultimi due anni però ho composto alcuni brani musicali utilizzando una rigorosa tecnica dei dodici suoni con risultati che ricordano Anton Webern. Ho scritto due brevi quartetti per fiati e una breve sinfonia per legni ottoni e percussioni. Ultimamente guadagno qualche soldo per mantenermi con la mia blues band, The Blackouts. Dopo il college conto di continuare a comporre e penso mi sarebbero veramente utili i consigli di un veterano come lei. Se mi permettesse di farle visita anche solo per poche ore gliene sarei molto grato. Le sembrerà strano ma penso proprio di avere qualche nuova idea da offrirle in materia di composizione. La prego di rispondermi il più presto possibile perché non resterò a lungo a questo indirizzo. La ringrazio per l’attenzione. Cordiali saluti Frank Zappa Jr. ................... 2 1 PEACHES EN REGALIA [VAMP] I duri del rock lo sentono come loro proprietà esclusiva, come profeta anti- establishment. Gli accademici lo tollerano in quanto compositore... un’eccezione! per il mondo del rock. Chi lo vuole un giullare simbolo della trasgressione più anarcoide.....
