Saxophone player and Uni-versity of North Texas musicprofessor Brad Leali says jazzand gospel music are knittedinto his DNA. Both inform theway he plays.
“This is how I was raised,”Leali said. “I was raised withgospel music and with jazz. Ithad always been a dream ofmine to show these differentfactions of music that really in-spired me to play the way I do.”
Gospel and jazz are Amer-ican folk music driven by thesame thing: human emotion.
“Gospel music comes fromemotion. It’s basically givingpraise to God. Some of the ba-sic harmonies of gospel musicare the foundation of jazz,” Lea-li said. “Sure, jazz is a bit moreharmonically challenging. OK.But that’s what I’m trying toconnect here. Gospel and jazzhave these different qualities.Jazz isn’t as straightforward asgospel, but it should be just asemotional.
“It’s easy sometimes in jazzto think of the harmonic aspectof jazz as being more challeng-ing, and the raw emotion does
get lost sometimes. But boththeir roots are emotion. Andit’s important for me to showthat.”
Sunday’s “Gospel MeetsJazz” concert is the second Lea-li has put together in Denton.He staged his first “GospelMeets Jazz” in 2007 in Lub-bock.
The idea debuted in Dentonlast year with success — a con-cert hall packed tight with allages, from all interests. Lealisaid he enjoyed the diversityamong the audience membersand onstage.
“There were people therefrom the church, from theschool side of things. Weplayed John Coltrane, and weplayed Kirk Franklin. We had alot of stuff going on and it wasso cool,” Leali said.
Leali said last year’s pro-gram was “straight-ahead jazz,
just swinging,” and gospel mu-sic. On Sunday, during a freeconcert, Leali will showcasewhat he calls a “funkier side ofjazz, like stuff from the 1970s.”
A Lubbock gospel choir willperform, and the Rev. CoryPowell will speak again aboutgospel music and its role inpropelling worship and ex-pressing raw emotion.
Leali expects that some ofthe gospel fans who attend areprobably not church members,or Christian. He notes the uni-versal appeal of gospel music asa sign of its power as an art-form.
“It’s pure,” he said. “It’s justpure. In gospel music, peoplearen’t pretending. I think mostpeople can relate to goodness,to love, right? And I think that’sthe basis of gospel music:Thank you, Lord. Thank you.
“It doesn’t matter what reli-
gion you are. I think most peo-ple can relate to giving thanks.I think most people enjoy love,don’t they?”
On Sunday, Leali said he’llassume his typical musical pos-ture: playing from emotion, inboth the language of gospeland the language of jazz.
“I’m excited about present-ing something different,” hesaid. “I’m excited about allthese talented people who willbe onstage with me.”

The Denton Bach Societyoften makes you think ofserious music, early mu-
sic by Bach and his contempo-raries. Soloists with the Bachchoir perform challenging ari-as, and the choir joins in withequally challenging choruses.
But fun is hardly foreign tothe society. The group hasstaged many an Oktoberfest-themed party, and even pre-sented Bach’s “Coffee Cantata”at a downtown coffeehouse.
And on Saturday at St. Bar-nabas Episcopal Church, theDenton Bach Society will chalkanother hatch in the fun col-umn with Il Festino nella seradel giovedi grasso avanti cena(“Fete for the Evening of FatThursday Before Supper”), afeast of delectable pre-LentenItalian fare and a performancefrom Festino.
“This is the sort of thing thatused to be done in Italy — itmight still be done — right be-fore Lent,” said Henry Gibbons,the director of the choir. “In itsday, this sort of thing wouldhave been done in a large hall,in the home of a wealthy per-son. But it was of a broader,more popular nature. It wasn’tsomething for the aristocracy.”
The music, by AdrianoBancheri, explores the tender,bawdy, amorous and absurdthrough 21 madrigals.
“Some of the songs are evenscatological,” Gibbons said.
Poop jokes? Performed bydevotees of baroque music?Absolutely, said choir memberand soloist Heidi Klein. Bach(and many of his contemporar-ies) were show people, in asense, and there is a time andplace for lowbrow humor.
“There are a few pieces —some ‘fa-las,’ as we call them,
and ‘din-dins’ — where thesingers make the sounds of mu-sical instruments,” Klein said.
In addition to Banchieri’smusic, Saturday’s event willfeature the homemade delightsof Italian-born Denton resi-dent Rossana Iodici Cacal. Ca-cal is making traditional carne-vale foods from several regionsof Italy.
“We celebrate our holidaysin food,” Cacal said. “Every re-gion has their own dishes andfamilies cook for days.”
A glimpse of the menu
promises belt-straining fare.Patrons can sample tastings offoods — all of them rich,whether savory or sweet — andsip wine before Festino begins.Tasting plate prices start at $5for three items.
Gibbons said the perfor-mance is costumed and “mini-mally staged.”
Saturday’s performance willstart at 7 p.m. at St. Barnabas,1200 N. Elm St. Tickets cost $15for adults, $12 for seniors andstudents. Tickets will be sold atthe door.

Continued on Page 8
Kevin Costner and directorMcG are plunged into the mad-cap mayhem of Monsieur LucBesson in 3 Days to Kill, a se-rio-comic thriller about mortal-ity, murder for hire and father-hood.
This being a Besson scriptand production, it’s also aboutcar chases and epic shootouts,torture played for sadisticlaughs, Paris locations and Peu-geot product placement.
Besson, who morphed into aproducer after The Profession-al and before The Transporter,gives Costner the full Liam Nee-son in Taken treatment, cash-ing in on a career of cool in amovie that moves almost fastenough to keep us from noticinghow scruffy, discomfiting andabsurdly over-the-top the wholething is.
Costner is Ethan, a veteranCIA agent diagnosed with can-
cer. But his new control agent, avamp named ViVi and played tothe stiletto-heeled hilt by AmberHeard, wants him to finish onelast massacre — taking out a nu-clear arms dealer and his associ-ates in the City of Light.
The carrot? She has an ex-perimental drug that might giveEthan longer to live. And thatcould mean more time with hisestranged wife (Connie Nielsen)and the daughter he barelyknows, played by True Grit teenHailee Steinfeld. They live inParis. The girl doesn’t knowwhat Dad does for a living, orthat he’s dying. She’s a teen. Sheprobably wouldn’t care.
McG (Charlie’s Angels, WeAre Marshall) stamps his sig-nature on Besson’s Euro-actionvision with running gags. “Dad”keeps trying to get his rebelliousteen to ride this cool purple bikehe brought her. Her ringtone onhis phone is “I Love It (I Don’tCare),” which always goes off
just as he’s about the rip a guy’sarmpit hair off with duct tape.Everybody’s always trying tohigh-five Ethan, and theFrench, Germans and others heruns into keep calling him“Cowboy.”
Ethan’s clueless about how todeal with a teen, so he’s alwaysstopping the torture to ask oneunderworld guy (Marc Andreo-ni, funny) how to cope, what todo, how “to balance work andfamily.”
Heard — all lipstick and lin-gerie, long eyelashes and leath-erwear — has little to do here,something of a waste. Steinfeld’sZoey is a bit of a drama queen,but not a caricature of one. Sheis one transgression after anoth-er, which Ethan seems loathe topunish and unable to reign in.
Besson co-wrote the script,and he works in shots at absen-tee parents, lazy French copsand a legal system that allowscute African squatters more
rights to Ethan’s apartmentthan he has. But that turns outto be a warm and fuzzy cul desac, one of many in this movie,which veers from shockingshootouts to rank sentiment.
Ethan’s illness is forgottenfor long stretches, but Costner, ahacking, weathered study inwrinkles and violence, never letson that the whole affair is moreof a lark than Taken ever was. Acanny touch is the old-fash-ioned split-screen openingcredits, scored to the old R&Btune “Old Man Trouble.” It fits.
Daft and sloppy as it is, 3Days rarely fails to entertain.From the bike-riding lessons onMontmartre to dopey interro-gation of the Italian “Accoun-tant,” interrupted for a marinarasauce recipe, it’s all part and par-cel of the madness of Besson,From Paris, With Love — fil-tered through McG and slap-ping a new stamp of “cool” onaging Oscar winner Costner.

The Lego Movie (★★★★ ) There
are so many things to like about The
Lego Movie: a great voice cast, clever
dialogue and a handsome blend of
stop-motion and CGI animation that
feels lovingly retro, while still looking
sharp in 21st-century 3-D. Set in a
world built entirely of Legos, the story
revolves around construction worker
Emmet Brickowski (voice of Chris
Pratt), who must join forces with a
group of rebels to stop the evil Lord
Business (Will Ferrell). With the
voices of Morgan Freeman, Elizabeth
Banks and Will Arnett. Rated PG, 94
minutes. — The Washington Post
Lone Survivor (★★ 1⁄2) Mark Wahl-
berg stars in this true story of four
Navy SEALS in Afghanistan in 2005
on a mission to find and eliminate a
Taliban leader. When the squad is
reduced to one (hence the title), he
finds refuge in an unlikely place. The
standard action flick accentuates the
bravery of the squad, but co-writer
and director Peter Berg never raises
his film beyond routine adventure
material. With Eric Bana, Emile Hirsch,
Ben Foster and Taylor Kitsch. Rated R,
121 minutes. — Boo Allen
The Monuments Men (★★ )
George Clooney stars in this World
War II drama that he also directed
and co-wrote, with Grant Heslov,
from Robert Edsel and Bret Witter’s
nonfiction book. Clooney heads a
team of aging art experts who identi-
fy and then attempt to recover art
treasures stolen by the Nazis. Seg-
mented film never gathers mo-
mentum but plods along with little
building dramatic engagement. The
fine cast includes Cate Blanchett,
Matt Damon, Bill Murray, John Good-
man, Jean Dujardin and Hugh Bonne-
ville. Rated PG-13, 118 minutes. — B.A.
Ride Along (★★ ) A little Kevin Hart
goes a long way in this dull buddy
picture. Ice Cube is cranky cop James,
whose pursuit of a mysterious villain
is interrupted by his sister’s fiance,
Ben (Hart), a video game-addicted
school security guard who longs to
bring his wise-cracking, voice-crack-
ing banter to the Atlanta P.D. Directed
by Tim Story (Barbershop). Rated
PG-13, 100 minutes. — McClatchy-
Tribune News Service
RoboCop (★★ 1⁄2) Director Jose
Padilha’s remake of the 1987 film of
the same name delivers plenty of
mayhem and action. Joel Kinnaman
stars as a Detroit detective blown up
by a car bomb only to be reincarnated
as the titular crime-fighting robotic
cop. Abbie Cornish plays his wife, and
Michael Keaton goes over-the-top as
a corporate villain. With Gary Oldman,
Samuel L. Jackson and Marianne
Jean-Baptiste. Rated PG-13, 118 min-
utes. — B.A.
That Awkward Moment (★★ 1⁄2)
This chatty romantic comedy in the
modern mode — rude, nude and
crude — has some funny, writerly
riffs on relationships and how to
avoid them. But the movie, like star
Zac Efron and writer-director Tom
Gormican, never lets us forget that
it’s trying too hard. Efron, Miles Teller
(The Spectacular Now) and Michael
B. Jordan (Fruitvale Station) play
three New York pals who vow, when
one is dumped by his wife, to stay
single and enjoy the mingling. Which
all of them ignore. Rated R, 94 min-
utes. — MCT
12 Years a Slave (★★★★ ) British
director Steven McQueen directs
Chiwetel Ejiofor as Solomon Northup,
a free man in 1841 New York who is
abducted and sold into slavery in the
South. He experiences torture and
humiliations from his various owners,
particularly one (Michael Fassbender).
Provocative yet well-made film
touches many buttons while deliv-
ering a compelling experience. Rated
R, 133 minutes. — B.A.
Winter’s Tale A tale spanning a
century in a mythical New York City,
about a thief who falls for a dying
woman and tangles with a ruthless

After she clicked on the “sub-mit” button for “Materials:Hard & Soft,” University of
North Texas graduate student andartist Abby Sherrill said she went onabout her schoolwork.
She didn’t expect her piece, SpoonCollection, to be selected to the well-known contemporary AmericanCraft competition and exhibition inDenton.
Sherrill also said she didn’t expectto win a juror’s award.
It turns out that Spoon Collection,a mixed-media installation made upof handcrafted spoons, charmedjuror Judy Gordon and earned anaward.
“Each of these objects is impec-cably made,” Gordon said weeks ago,when she came to Denton to selectaward winners. “They’re curious,aren’t they? The material the artisthas used is ordinary, but the detail isreally magnificent. This is something
I’d be happy to have on mhome.”
Spoon Collection grew out of arist’s block and an observation.
“I was stuck,” Sherrill said. “Icouldn’t think of anything to makwas thinking about what I could putup there that would mean some-thing, and mean something thaa lot of memory. My grandmotherhad a pretty extensive spoon collec-tion hanging on her wall.”

THE HUMBLE SPOON■ The tradition of the Welsh love spoon has roots in the 17th century.
Sailors would pass time at sea carving intricate wooden spoons to be
given as gifts for their intended brides.
■ Spoons were and are used as percussion instruments in American,
British, Canadian, Greek, Russian and Turkish folk music.
■ There are more than 65,000 entries for spoons on Etsy.com, re-
presenting jewelry, cooking and decorative objects.
■ The spork: Largely recognized as a spoon with short, fork-like prongs.
Wikipedia says that, in the United States, a combined spoon, fork and knife
most closely resembling the modern spork was invented — patent and all
— in 1874.

award-winning installation.Sherrill used found objects, pa-per and cardboard, and bits ofwire to approximate spoons ar-ranged in a rectangle of similarobjects, all of them measuringabout 8 inches. They all lookhumble, simple. But each objectis lovingly made and technicallyprecise.
“It came from an interest incollections, and how collectionscan create meaning beyond theobject,” Sherrill said. “The mate-rials I used was, I think, more ofan investigation of meaning inwhat would be trash around mystudio.”
Using paper, cardboard andthe like was intentional for Sher-rill.
“One of the biggest challeng-es was finding different materi-als and using found objects, andthe materials I used and thefound objects changed the foun-dation of the collection in a wayI’m OK with,” she said.
As she studied spoons andcollections, Sherrill realized thatshe was indeed working in thecraft form — rendering a func-tional object decorative.
“I was working intuitively,asking questions like ‘Howwould someone hold this, andwhat would it hold?’ I was think-ing about just the shape,” shesaid.
Ultimately, it was the soft-ness of the paper and cardboardin the form of something typi-cally hard — flatware — andSherrill’s careful constructionthat sold Judy Gordon on thepiece. Yes, she was looking at aspoon collection. Each of the ob-jects suggested an intimacy andmeaning.
“It plays with those ideas in away that’s clever and fun,” Gor-don said.
Sherrill said paper and card-board have a sort of dual identi-ty.
“Yes, it’s a worthless materialthat used to have a function, butit also has aesthetics,” Sherrillsaid. “I think the material caneasily be shaped into somethingelse. And then there’s the pre-ciousness of the handmade. Re-ally, I could spend three hoursworking on something madeout of cardboard, something im-pressive, but it’s still cardboard.”
She labored over the piecesthat make up Spoon Collectionin varying intensity. Some weremade in a matter of minutes,crafted almost automatically.Others needed more planningand attention.
The point of the piece was tomake objects that could actuallyperform a function, thanks totechnical execution. But thegoal? That was to suggest themeaningful objects in our livesor the lives of others — whetherthe rectangular shape evokesposters, stamps or boxes, or
whether the objects remindviewers of carefully preservedknickknacks.
It’s Sherrill’s first time to sub-mit to “Materials: Hard & Soft”and her first time to make it intothe show.
“I’m humbled,” she said. “Iknow it’s an important show,and important locally. I think it’skind of cool that it’s local. It wasreally nice to be able to drive tothe gallery, hang the piece andgo back home the same day.”
