Echoes of the Jazz Age: Gold Coast
Starring John Bell and Simon Tedeschi The 1920s, or the Jazz Age, was one of the most thrilling decades in history. In the words of F. Scott Fitzgerald, who invented the term, it was an age of miracles, an age of art, an age of excess and an age of satire. The dazzling events of the era lasted for ten years until, as he put it so evocatively, they leaped to a spectacular death with the Wall Street crash in October 1929. Nowhere is this period better described than in Echoes of the Jazz Age, Fitzgerald’s famous essay on the Roaring Twenties. And nowhere is the decade’s remarkable aura more brilliantly evoked than in John Bell and Simon Tedeschi’s performance of the same title, in words and music. Contact:

Spaced Out on Jazz
10. International Jazz Day activities ran throughout the year at various venues and were conceptualized to respond to lockdowns and restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Madeleine Joel Kaindl, singer, musician and composer expressed the Zeitgeist in this way: “Music takes on the role of energetic reunification. People meet again, look forward to concerts, and look forward to the community. Music will be healing; music will make people forget the severity and consequences of the pandemic for a few hours. Music means salvation, balm for the soul, joie de vivre, light-heartedness.” Autobiography by was composed by Madeleine during the pandemic. The UNESCO Club Vienna inaugurated the 1st International Jazz Day in Austria with partner That’s Jazz with the Monday Session to support the next generation of jazz musicians. We teamed up again this year to commemorate the 10th IJD with The Other Armstrong – The Next Generation of Sound Chapter 2. The composer Paul Urbanek on piano was joined by Robin Gadermaieer (b,eb) and Lukas Boeck (dr). Robin and Lukas had both participated in the 1st IJD and are now accomplished musicians on the jazz scene in Austria! Activities were held throughout 2021 included live concerts, poster exhibit as well as the jazz-inspired action painting series Time Signatures.

Women in Jazz in the Dominican Republic – Book Release & Concert
A las 7:00pm del viernes 23 de abril Fernando Rodríguez de Mondesert, en medio de un conversatorio, lanzará su libro Mujeres en el Jazz .. en Dominicana, su segundo titulo, publicado por la Ukiyoto Publishing Co., siendo el primero como premio por haber sido uno de los ganadores del Global Blog Awards 2019.
La obra, en Español e Inglés, pretende resaltar la contribución de las mujeres a nuestro jazz. Es un homenaje, una oportunidad para conocer algunas de las propuestas contemporáneas de mujeres que han entregado sus talentos, su música; que han compartido sus almas y corazones con el público; que han trillado y abierto camino a otras que les han seguido.
Las mujeres siempre han sido una parte importante del jazz, aunque a menudo sus logros no han tenido el mismo reconocimiento que el de sus colegas masculinos. Ellas, han contribuido enormemente en todos los estilos y en todas las épocas de la historia del jazz. Igualmente ha ocurrido y sigue ocurriendo en la República Dominicana, razón por esta obra: ¨Mujeres en el jazz …en Dominicana¨! Libro que abre una ventana a las mujeres que han sido, son y serán parte de la escena del jazz en el país!
A las 9:00pm el festejo continúa con la presentación del Fiesta Sunset Jazz Vocal Jam 2021. Si los Jam sessions son especiales y muy esperados tanto los músicos como el público para experimentar estas descargas – no se imaginan cuan grandes y vivos son los Vocal Jams. He aquí uno muy especial. Nuestro trío base a cargo de Jordi Masalles servirá de plataforma para los despegues de unas muy talentosas vocalistas. La magia del Jazz…Se da en su máxima expresión en los jammeos…vayan, y … que no se lo cuenten.
###
At 7:00 pm on Friday, April 23, Fernando Rodríguez de Mondesert will release his book Jazz en Dominicana: The Interviews 2019, product of the award received from Ukiyoto Publishing Co. for having been second finalist of the Global Blog awards Awards 2019.
The publication, in Spanish and English, is a tribute to the contribution of women to jazz in our country, it has been an opportunity to learn about some of the contemporary proposals in this genre from women who have given their talents and music; have shared their souls and hearts with audiences; have trodden and paved the way for those who are to follow them.
Women have always been an important part of jazz, although their achievements have often not received the same recognition as that of their male colleagues. They, have contributed enormously in all styles and in all eras of jazz history. The same has happened and continues to happen in the Dominican Republic, reason for this title: ¨ Women in Jazz… in the Dominican Republic¨!. Book which looks into the women that have been, are and will be a part of the jazz scene in the country!
And at 9:00 pm, the celebration continues with the presentation of the Fiesta Sunset Jazz Vocal Jam 2021. If Jam sessions are special and highly anticipated by both musicians and the public to experience these get down sessions – you cannot imagine how big and alive Vocal Jams are. Here’s a very special one. Our base trio led by Jordi Masalles will serve as a platform for the takeoffs of some very talented female vocalists. The magic of Jazz … It occurs at its best in jams … and get the scoop .. live!

YogaLoveJazz Virtual
Still in organizing the project the idea it´s born to to emphasise the connection between the two passions of yoga and jazz, highlighting the forces generated by one hour of yoga and one hour of listening to jazz. The combination of the two opens up frontiers in the heart and soul and leads us to a healthy inner world, which is expressed in the realisation of an equally healthy outer world… Jazz represents music where each musician is closely connected in a domino cascade with the sound of the others, each time creating a different version of the same music, it sustains a unique and profound rhythm that opens sound barriers for the listener. Jazz tempos caress the deepest emotions, supporting the performer, the sound, the listening… Contact: Luana Marini Bellisari | +49015736364410 |

Saxophonist and multi-reed instrumentalist, MIHÁLY BORBÉLY is equally at home in folk and world music, in jazz and contemporary music. On this special occasion, he will be joined by tenor/soprano-sax player and multi woodwind instrumentalist MIHÁLY DRESCH, who is, without a doubt, the finest exponent of Hungarian ethno-jazz and uses Hungarian folklore as the starting point of improvisation much as black Americans use the blues. His own group is a real musical workshop. Formation: bass player BALÁZS HORVÁTH and drummer HUNOR G. SZABÓ. Contact: Reka Irk | +36 209998781 |

Mauro Brunini Jazz Quartet “Bebop Tribute” Virtual
The musicians of this formation come from various and important experiences in the jazz field. They faced the obligatory path that is part of learning this very niche genre, jazz, but so loved because it is considered highly creative and visceral music. Mauro Brunini is a trumpet player active on various fronts, both with leading projects and collaborations of depth, in this case, makes use of the touch of Yazan Greselin, a pianist known and counted in several projects. The rhythm section is composed of the precise timing of Achille Giglio and the effective swing of Luca Grasso, synergistic artists to face and perform the chosen repertoire, which wants to be, as the title says, a tribute to the BeBop era.

Ivan Mazuze Band With Guests – Live stream Virtual
På globusen er det et godt stykke fra Mosambik til Oslo, og det blir ikke noe særlig kortere av å ta turen om Cape Town. Musikalsk sett har distansen likevel vist seg å være forbausende kort. Saksofonisten Ivan Mazuze hadde allerede en lang karriere i hjemlandet da han for mer enn ti år siden fulgte hjertet og reiste nordover. Her har han blitt en vital del av hovedstadens musikkliv og til markeringen av den internasjonale jazzdagen har Ivan håndplukket tre gjestemusikere, alle bosatt i Oslo, men med ulike kulturelle og musikalske bakgrunner. Sammen vil Ivans kvartett og gjestemusikerne vise at jazz og improvisasjon kommuniserer på tvers av kulturer, og løfte frem det fantastiske mangfoldet vi har i musikk-Oslo i dag, hjemme hos deg! ### On the globe, it is a good distance from Mozambique to Oslo, and it will not be much shorter to take the trip around Cape Town. Musically, the distance has nevertheless proved to be surprisingly short. Saxophonist Ivan Mazuze already had a long career in his home country when he followed his heart more than ten years ago and traveled north. Here, he has become a vital part of the capital’s music life and for the celebration of the international jazz day, Ivan has hand-picked three guest musicians, all living in Oslo, but with different cultural and musical backgrounds. Together, Ivan’s quartet and the guest musicians will show that jazz and improvisation communicate across cultures, and highlight the fantastic diversity we have in music Oslo today, at your home!

Faris Ishaq performing "NAY : Nature Addresses You" Virtual
When nature reveals its secrets, imposing it’s truth upon us. the “Nay” flute reflects a shadow ignored by mankind. The Nay, dates back to 5000 B.C to Ancient Egypt and has been existing since then, reminding us of our ancient origins. In order for its sound to come out, a consistent reflective connection has to be made between the nay, the player and the environment it is played within. Perhaps that is why the Sufi Tradition chose the nay as an instrument for self-discovery. The performance “NAY : Nature Addresses You” is a solo performance that aims to strengthen the bond between humanity and nature and invites for a journey narrated by the nay for the call of self-discovery and self-reconciliation.

Herbie Hancock’s Traum von sich bewegendem Surround Sound keine Vision?
Es war eine Zufallsentdeckung, dass trotz limitierten Fähigkeiten Davinci Resolve mit Hilfe des VST Hostes Unify die limitierte Fairlight DAW zu einem extrem mächtigen Instrument wird. Daniela Tocan ist begeisterte 360 Fotografin. Am Keyboard ist sie Anfängerin aber der Schwerpunkt bei Film und Video liegt auch oft im reinen Sound. Und in Soundpatches. Ihr Ehemann wird versuchen die Wege anhand von 2 einfachen Jazz Cord progressions nachzuvollziehen. Es geht weiterhin um eine Vision oder einen Traum wie nahe wir an der Realität sind wird anhand von Lösungswegen gezeigt. Lassen Sie sich überraschen vom Sounderlebnis.
Eines wird bestimmt Matrix sein. Herbie Hancock bezeichnet es als “Crazy”

Jure Praper: Liquid Carpet Virtual
Jure Prapper: Liquid Carpet – closing concert of the 16th Slovenian Jazz Festival. After twenty years of cooperation in many casts of various musical genres, Jure Praper finally manifested the idea of his entire author’s cast. Liquid Carpet isn’t just a band, it’s Prapper’s media through which it can be musically expressed in the purest, primary form, unbothered with musical genres and guidelines. Spontaneity was the only one when writing music for the first-grader – indulge and give room to the idea, develop and nurture it. The jazz approach was present in open form and improvisation. But music doesn’t go into free jazz, because it’s always backed up with strong rhythmic basics that draw from funk, blues, rock, Balkans,… That’s why experienced musicians coming from the same environment were invited to realize the idea, known each other for years, and performed together in many other characters, recordings, and projects.

In spite of the changes in the line-up, the quartet stays true to the instrumentation of vibraphone – piano – bass – drums and to playing original music, which, quite contrary to popular belief, bears no similarity to soap opera jingles… most of the time.

Sagiya International Jazz Day Festival
All the way from South Africa Durban, Sagiya Foundation and Mazisi Kunene Foundation are collaborating with Independent Creatives and organizations locally and Internationally to bring you International Jazz Day Celebration, A Tribute to a living Legend Madala Kunene. Organized in unity to celebrate a living Legend, to preserve the local creative industry, and to help manage the pressure caused by the COVID-19 Pandemic. A legend is someone who leaves behind an unforgettable impression on others. They touch lives, they’re remembered, they’re cherished. Madala Kunene, commonly referred to as the king of the Zulu guitar, lives in a house in the middle of a newly gentrified suburb just outside of Durban in the South African province of KwaZulu-Natal. He is often described as an mbaqanga or maskandi artist—something he personally hates. Kunene is an artist who is constantly shifting between musical habitats. He has no interest in genre specifications and prescriptions. Instead, his brand of blues operates in an opaque space where cool jazz, maskandi, mbaqanga, and a myriad of East Coast blues intersect. “Music that’s one-dimensional never connects with people,” Kunene says. “I grew up listening to a lot of Duke Ellington and The Beatles. Even then, I realized that this music was from elsewhere but that it also had bits and pieces and sounds that I could recognize from my own life. And that was liberating because it allowed me to merge things from different sounds that I liked, giving me ownership of that process.” This merger of sounds is something Kunene has dubbed “The Madalaline.” Kunene is best known for his 1995 debut album Konko Man (Strong Man). “It was an expression of how I was at the time and my views on a lot of things. I am surprised by how people still look to that album as a blueprint for my sound,” he says. Konko Man sounds and feels like both the start of something (post-Apartheid feelings of isolation) and the end of 1980s Zulu throwaway pop. It’s also the most powerful record in Kunene’s recorded discography. It’s the kind of album that tends to come out when a musician has spent years preparing for it. Kunene was born in 1951 in Mkhumbane, a vibrant mixed community just outside of inner Durban. The son of a carpenter, Kunene was raised by his grandmother—a staunch academic who wanted him to be something of a bookworm. At the age of eight, Kunene and some members of his extended family were trucked off by the Apartheid government to go live in the then relatively new township of KwaMashu. “People can’t imagine what it’s like when you see bulldozers demolish your home in the middle of the night,” recalls Kunene. “The worst thing was that when they moved us, they came at night and packed my family into the back of a truck and then went to another area to pick up another family there and so on. So you were not just separated from your home, you were stripped of your friends and neighbors in the process. It was a very calculated act,” he adds. As a meditation on his history, Kunene recently released 1959. The album explores dense and often melancholic subject matter, especially Kunene’s own history as a victim of forced removal. “I’ve never spoken about those experiences in my music in an earnest way. I wanted to recall them and most importantly make a personal album that was looking internally at my personal history rather than looking out,” says Kunene. 1959 is a blues album with slightly more muscle—a personal catharsis and an attempt to exercise the muscle of memory through music. Insistent and unrelenting, 1959 is Kunene’s urban war cry. It is a portrait of the artist as a not-so-young man of faith, a sonic investigation that tries to make sense of the gradual process of sanitizing history—how the real past is purged for the sake of a historical sound bite. “Music is the best medium to record and tell history. As African people, the way we know and understand our past is very influenced by music,” Kunene says. “So if I can add one layer of context that can help in understanding this period in our history, then that is great.” Join us as we celebrate the legacy of Madala Kunene, Confirmed Lineup: MADALA Kunene Ft.

Our theme will be hope, unity and democracy and our purpose will be to promote “International Jazz Day” through the world’s love of this musical art form. Please visit BluesAlley.com for additional details and to make reservations for a jazz music night to remember. Contact:
