This project is a wonderful opportunity for our students who don't get a chance to see noted jazz musicians," said Diane "Lil Sax" Ellis. "My group, the Dixon Elementary Super Sax Jazz Ensemble, will certainly benefit from learning about jazz from these international virtuosos. At the present time I do not have many of the instruments needed for my jazz band, so I just use the term Super-Sax Jazz Ensemble. The [Thelonious Monk Jr.] Institute of Jazz has been established to preserve the musical legacy of Monk, who performed often in Chicago before his death. In addition to his having performed in jazz clubs throughout Chicago including the London House and Mister Kelley's, he was featured at the Jazz Showcase. One remembers his last performance at Ravinia Festival before he passed away...
Trombonist Jason Disu, singers Brendan Reilly and Randell Wakefield Jr., saxophonists Chad Bloom and Chester James Howard and bassist Ashley Beauchamp Dzerigian were intensely talented teens, so much so that they earned all-star chairs and honors at the Monterey Jazz Festival. The activities of the six graduates of the Los Angeles County High School for the Arts indicate they're fulfilling expectations as professional artists, music educators and collegiate players.

If I could turn the lights out, you'd see that I'm an occupant of physical documents, trapped inside, moving through darkness, and I'm wondering how do we exist without being so see-through but still being so see-through, if I could just see you and just feel and touch, too black, too white, too in, too out, so many walls and how do we just manage to crawl and creep and exist, and I'm wondering how long can we persist, pushing through this feeling of blackout. If only I could turn the lights out and just see you see through this madness, sadness. As vocalist/poet John Moon breathlessly

In what would become another of her trends, [Nina Simone] sued a former record label for $1 million dollars when they released old studio work without her approval. Her objection was as much based on the technical inferiority of die production as the absence of permission. As controversial as "Mississippi G - dam" was, two radio stations discontinued playing her "Four Women," largely because the dramatic offering featured a stanza about a prostitute named "Sweet Thing" and a street tough named "Peaches." White listeners were also uncomfortable with die lyrics mulatto character "Sephronia" sang, "My father was rich and white; He forced my mother late one night. Simone continued to connect better with live authences than she did on wax. In London in '67, she slammed a piano lid and walke...

[Denardo Coleman]'s album, "Sound Grammar," won the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for music. Earlier this year, he was named director of the 2009 Meltdown Festival at London's Southbank Centre. This was the event's 16th year, with Coleman following previous curators such as David Bowie, Patti Smith and Lee "Scratch" Perry. Coleman's individuality was noted in 1954 when he began playing a plastic saxophone. In 1966, he was criticized for recording his album, "The Empty Foxhole," with a trio that included Charlie Haden and his son Denardo, who was 10 years old. Some regarded this as a publicity stunt on Coleman's part. However, oth- ers noted that despite his youth, Denardo had studied drumming several years, his technique, though unrefined, was respectable and enthu- siastic. Denardo has matured i...

It's nature's rule: Toronto is the summer festival gift of the gods. Fall and winter are given over to cultural treats indoors - including first-run shows from London stages - but the entire city becomes the setting for one or another public attraction in spring and summer. The list of events on tap recently included an international circus festival, a dance festival, a dragon boat festival, a busker festival, and even a festival for dogs called Woofstock. This isn't to ignore the numerous folk festivals taking place alongside the city's highly rated film and jazz festivals that go on inside and out, many of them under tents. July alone saw the Beaches International Jazz Festival, the Fringe of Toronto Theatre Festival, the Casa Loma Renaissance Festival, and the Caribana Festival.
