THE MOST SALIENT FEATURE OFjazz in the 21st Century is its enor-mous breadth and diversity. A music thatonce was defined largely by a unifyingprinciple—swing—has become fracturedand fragmented stylistically, spawninghundreds of styles and hybrids that incor-porate the influences of music rangingfrom serial modern to South Asian, tangoto West African, chamber to symphonic.Nowhere is the scope of options more evi-dent, in a handy microcosm, than in thetraditional, acoustic piano trio: piano, bassand drums.

This Winning Spins highlights two newalbums by piano trios: one of them, CyrusChestnut's, comes out of the continuingmainstream tradition of swing and lyricalflair, and the other, John Chin's, exploresthe freer rhythmic structures and varietyof influences that have expanded jazz inrecent years. While the albums are stylis-tically at odds, they share an admirabletechnical virtuosity in the players as wellas a recording philosophy that emphasizesspontaneity and improvisation. Chestnut'swas recorded live at a club and Chin's withthe trio all together in one room in a studio.

Midnight Melodies, Cyrus Chestnut(Smoke Sessions), recorded over two nightslate last year at Smoke Jazz & SupperClub on the Upper West Side, follows thecontours of a single set by Chestnut's triowith bassist Curtis Lundy and drummerLewis Nash. Surprisingly, it is Chestnut'sfirst live album as a leader and, judgingfrom the results, should definitely not behis last.

The music has such verve that it palpa-bly buoys your spirits when you hear it.Chestnut, like such predecessors as ErrolGarner and Oscar Peterson, infuses hisplaying with a joyous energy and unflag-ging swing. This CD is loosely dedicated toone of Chestnut's compatriots and men-tors, the late John Hicks. Three of the 11tracks are Hicks material and in the notesChestnut explains how Hicks' versions ofsome of the others inspired him.

The CD kicks off with a pair of Hickstunes: the bright ballad "Two Heartbeats"and the composer's tribute to anotherpianist, Sonny Clark, "Pocket Full ofBlues." The tracks amply displayChestnut's crisp articulation and singing,ringing way with single note lines, as wellas his ability to build solos from thosethrough block chords and resounding cli-

maxes, as Lundy and Lewis follow his leadwith swinging dynamism.

But the highpoint of the album is anoth-er Hicks piece: "Naima's Love Song," thepenultimate track. The first three minutesis a piano solo, beginning with a fondremembrance of a hymn, "Sweet Hour ofPrayer," then meandering on to a lush ren-dition of "For All We Know" before the triohits the Hicks tune. It is swung in asprightly tempo with clean, crisp pianoshadowed by attentive bass and drums; itthen morphs into a dancing, tropicalrhythmed final section before a deceleratedpiano and bass coda. It all adds up to a true tour de force. Also impressive are apair of Billy Strayhorn numbers, two Nashoriginals and a quicksilver version of"Giant Steps."

Undercover, John Chin (BJU Records),says the leader, was made to document theprogress of his working trio with bassistOrlando Le Fleming and drummer DanRieser. The trio inhabits that very flexibleand slightly amorphous space that could becalled post-bop or post-modern. Temposare often elastic with swing much less aconcern than ensemble rapport and strate-gies may be borrowed, as that other post-modern trio The Bad Plus does, from rockand hip-hop as well as the jazz tradition.

As a pianist, Chin is chameleon-like:pointillist and abstract at one juncture,gnarly or bluesy at another. The title tuneis compulsive in its persuasive mood, cre-ated with a fractured melody over an oddlyseductive time signature and a churningbeat that heralds polyphonic lines fromChin. His original, "If for No One," is a bal-lad with a bossa/samba rhythm and utter-ly distinctive, clipped piano phrasing.

A more conventionally paced, but flex-timed, rhythm animates another ballad:Charlie Chaplin's "Smile," with bass andpiano weaving in a cat's cradle and Chinvoicing the melody low in his left hand overright hand arpeggios. Two Wayne Shortertunes absorb rock rhythm influences andthis trio's "Caravan" is a unique versionwith its ominous, deep, yet funky beats.Trio interplay reaches a crescendo on thefinale, John Coltrane's "Countdown."

Cyrus Chestnut celebrates therelease of Midnight Melodies with histrio at Smoke July 18-19. John Chin isat Smalls July 14.

S P O T LFRANCISCO MORA CATLETTMINTON'S / JULY 1Drummer/percussionist Francisco Mora Catlett honed techniques in the mean streetsof both his native Mexico and adopted Detroit before moving to NYC. Studying withMax Roach and performing as a member of M'Boom and the Sun Ra Arkestra, hedeveloped an Afro-Cuban style amalgamated with modern jazz. Working with pianistCraig Taborn in and outside of Michigan heightened this forward thinking approach.Part of the Jazz at the Crossroads series, subtitled The Dance of Eleggua, you'll hearthe fourth incarnation of Mora Catlett's AfroHORN band which is inspired by the writ-ings of Henry Dumas and fueled by multicultural influences. The ensemble will pres-ent music from their recent CD, Rare Metal. AfroHORN features baritone saxophonistand fellow ex-Detroiter Alex Harding, soprano saxophonist Sam Newsome, pianistAruan Ortiz, bassist Rashaan Carter and percussionist Roman Diaz. MGN

EMILY ASHERLOUIS ARMSTRONG MUSEUM / JULY 4Trombonist/vocalist Emily Asher's musical personality may scream vintage but herperformance style is as fresh as they come. Whether as a sidewoman or as a leader,Asher's combination of both old and new has been met with praise from the New Yorkmusical community. With a résumé that includes performances or recordings withWycliffe Gordon and Nicholas Payton, Asher is a force to be reckoned with. Since therelease of her debut album Dreams May Take You in 2012, Asher has sought to put herspin on early jazz, ensuring its longevity with future audiences. For her concert on July4, Asher will be joined by her group, Garden Party, for an afternoon celebrating whatwould have been Louis Armstrong's 113th birthday. EW

DAVID WHITE SAINT PETER'S CHURCH / JULY 9Trombonist and composer David White is among a new generation of jazz artists keen-ly committed to reviving the big band medium and exploring the vast musical poten-tial of the format. While certainly a potent horn player in his own right, the Buffalonative has made a particular name for himself as a big band leader. Developing hisensemble as a vehicle for original works, White proves himself a remarkable composerwhose willingness to stretch textures and tonalities without sacrificing a sense ofswing might remind listeners of great ensembles like the Thad Jones/Mel LewisOrchestra. Celebrating the recent release of his second recording, The Chase, Whitewill showcase new works from the album as part of Midtown Jazz at Midday. SH

MARIO PAVONE CORNELIA STREET CAFÉ / JULY 10-12Supremely talented yet underappreciated in modern improvised jazz, acoustic bassistMario Pavone celebrates 50 years in music at this three-day showcase. A native ofWestbury CT, Pavone has been a quintessential sideman and leader on many record-ings for the Playscape label. A sensitive, sincerely inventive and assertive bassist,Pavone will offer three different bands on successive nights. Quartet Arc, with musicdedicated to Josef Kaempf, includes drummer Gerald Cleaver, saxophonist ElleryEskelin and trumpeter Dave Ballou. The 11th, he will present Pavone's nonet with anaccordion and brass quartet playing music from his latest recording, Street Songs. Onthe 12th, Pavone fronts the Pulse Quartet, again with Eskelin and Cleaver and, in hisonly NYC appearance during the past decade, his son, guitarist Michael Pavone. MGN

BRANDON WRIGHTJAZZ AT KITANO / JULY 10Saxophonist Brandon Wright has strong ties to a lineage of progressive jazz playersfrom John Coltrane to Steve Lehman, with numerous reference points in between. Butit would be more accurate to call his tone "singing," like a vocalist. He's also heavilyinfluenced by improv comedy. The native of New Jersey studied with the late saxo-phonist Donald Walden at the University of Michigan and attended the University ofMiami before staking his claim in NYC. Prominent associations are with the MariaSchneider Orchestra and the Mingus Big Band. Wright's second and most recent CD,Journeyman (Posi-Tone), refers to his ascendance as a 30-something jazz sideman whois reaching for something more. Wright's Kitano band is stellar: pianist David Kikoski,bassist Ed Howard and drummer Otis Brown III. MGN

Carter'simpassioned style will be on display as part of Bryant Park's Piano in the Park concertseries dedicated to the artistry of piano jazz in all its forms. EW

ROMÁN FILIUJAZZ GALLERY / JULY 18-19Román Filiu has covered a lot of ground in his career. Born in Cuba, Filiu was classi-cally trained and first heard jazz broadcast from a Miami station opposed to the Cubangovernment. He sought out the freedom of improvisation, gaining important experienceworking with pianist Chucho Valdes in his quartet and in Irakere. The alto saxophon-ist, who doubles on soprano sax, has recorded with Paquito D'Rivera, David Murray,Gonzalo Rubalcaba and the Buena Vista Social Club. After touring internationally, per-sonal freedom appealed to Filiu as well, so he moved to Spain, then to NYC in 2011. Hisband at the Jazz Gallery will include trumpeter Ralph Alessi, tenor saxophonist DaynaStephens, pianist David Virelles, bassist Matt Brewer, drummer Craig Weinrib andpercussionist Yusnier Sanchez. KD

RALPH MOORE92Y / JULY 24Tenor saxophonist Ralph Moore was in his mid-20s when he first impressed listenerswith Horace Silver, Roy Haynes and Dizzy Gillespie's reunion big band in the early1980s. He developed his own approach to the dominant John Coltrane template of thetime with a mellower, velvety tone and more melodic ideas. A member of J.J. Johnson'slast quintet in the 1990s, he was also a longtime member of the "Tonight Show" band.This gig is billed as a "rare New York appearance" for Moore, who will be part of theY's Summer Jazz series program, The Man with the Horn: The Music of Miles Davis,also featuring trumpeter Jeremy Pelt, alto saxophonist Steve Wilson, pianists ReneeRosnes and series director Bill Charlap, bassist Peter Washington and drummer LewisNash. GK

JEFF "TAIN" WATTSIRIDIUM / JULY 19-20Drummer Jeff Watts blends finesse and intensity on the bandstand wherever he goes,either as a leader or in his work as a high-profile sideman stretching back more than30 years. His credentials include Grammy-winning jazz recordings with both Branfordand Wynton Marsalis and 23 years as Branford's drummer (three of those years as amember of NBC's "Tonight Show" band). With six recordings as a leader since 1999, hekeeps his music fresh and evolving like so many jazz greats.

FRANK KIMBROUGHOSPAC / JULY 11Frank Kimbrough says he's been sitting at the piano for longer than he can remem-ber. Of his artistry, The New Yorker says, "Kimbrough is a near-visionary whoseimprovisation and composing simmers with melodic intrigue and invention." He hasplayed in solo, trio and more than 20 group settings from his founding member workwith the Jazz Composers Collective, The Herbie Nichols Project and his participationin the Maria Schneider Jazz Orchestra. Kimbrough's duos with vibraphonist JoeLocke on recordings like Saturn's Child (Omnitone) have shown listeners that less isoften more and his solo efforts are overflowing with freshness to each approachedtheme, from Motian to Monk to Ellington. In West Orange, Kimbrough will explorewith saxophonist Ted Nash.

SHIRAZETTE TINNINNEWARK MUSEUM / JULY 10The global rhythms of drummer Shirazette Tinnin began in North Carolina, travelingwith her singing parents performing in large gospel groups. Tinnin sought out soulmusic and eventually jazz studies at Appalachian State University. She movedthrough Chicago, gleaning instruction from Lewis Nash and Terri Lyne Carringtonand playing with notables Jimmy Heath and Slide Hampton. Travels to Peru initiat-ed a love for Cajon which Tinnin brought to New York, where she's a regular withGabriel Alegria's Afro-Peruvian Sextet. She has toured with saxophonist Tia Fuller,appeared with Alicia Keys on BET, worked with pianist Orrin Evans and trumpeterHugh Masekela and released a new CD, Humility: Purity of My Soul (Hot Tone).Tinnin will be joined by pianist William Delisfort, guitarist Seth Johnson and saxo-phonist Laura Andrea Leguia.

DAVID OSTWALDOCEAN COUNTY COLLEGE / JULY 24Inspired by jazz pioneers Louis Armstrong, Bix Beiderbecke, Duke Ellington, JellyRoll Morton and other noble colleagues, David Ostwald's Louis Armstrong EternityBand featuring cornetist Danny Tobias, Adrian Cunningham on alto sax and clarinet,trombonist Jim Fryer, Vince Giordano on banjo and guitar and drummer AlexRaderman, breathes life and passion into America's own art of jazz. Ostwald wasraised in Pennsylvania, studying piano at seven and moving to tuba at 11. Originallyclassically trained, Ostwald formed his first jazz band while a junior in college, a movethat eventually found him performing with Wynton Marsalis, Clark Terry, WoodyAllen, Jon Hendricks and Leon Redbone. Leading the Gully Low Jazz Band resultedin a 1986 Grammy nomination.

VINNY VALENTINOTRUMPET'S / JULY 11George Benson describes guitarist Vinny Valentino as "a young genius with brillianttone and fresh ideas." Valentino initiated those ideas at age six with further inspirationcoming after seeing Benson in concert. Rather than hiding behind reconstituted WesMontgomery licks, Valentino's crafty fingerings and inspired originals have put him onshared stages with Gary Bartz, Jimmy McGriff, Randy Brecker and Chick Corea. Withhis On3 Trio, Valentino has toured South America and is a regular at Java Jazzfest inIndonesia. His Color Funk Band brings the organ trio into the 21st century by combin-ing pop, hip hop and rock in a classic jazz setting. Marking the band’s tenth anniver-sary, Valentino joins with organist Adam Klipple and drummer Tony Cintron.

SINCE THE EARLY 1970s, THEBrooklyn-born guitarist Jack Wilkinshas quietly but firmly established himselfas a musician's musician. His résumé is animpressive collection of work mostly per-formed in the shadows of some of jazzmusic's most celebrated artists. In a groupsetting, Wilkins is a brilliant soloist whocan dazzle with blazingly fast, impeccablyclean single-line runs or employ warm,inventive chord work that leads you alongthe melody in delightfully unpredictableways.

When Wilkins first heard guitaristJohnny Smith, an admitted influence in histurning to jazz, he found something thatreally touched him. "It just felt right and Ijust loved the sound. I think it was thesound that attracted me to him." As far asguitar innovators, Wilkins is high on thework of an old bluesman. "I think the firsttrue innovator was Lonnie Johnson. Hewas playing stuff in the 1920s that hadpurely developed lines. Some of the duetwork that he did with Eddie Lang was justuncanny."

Wilkins was introduced to acclaimeddrummer Buddy Rich, who hired Wilkinsfor his small ensemble in the early 1970s.The group played regularly at Buddy'sPlace in NYC and extensively toured witha rotating line-up of formidable musicians."We played maybe 35 weeks a year over athree-year period and I never got bored.Buddy knew how to change it up." Alongthe way the accomplished guitarist foundhimself in settings with such luminaries asDizzy Gillespie, Charles Mingus, StanGetz, Bill Evans and Earl "Fatha" Hines.

At a young age, Wilkins learned that asuccessful musician needs to be both an

accomplished player and an astute listen-er. He recalls being a young hotshot whowas burning it up onstage when suddenlyhe finds himself the only one playing. Amystified Wilkins asked a bandmate "Whydid you guys stop playing? The musicianreplied "Oh, we were all listening to you."The embarrassing lesson stuck with theyoung guitarist: keep your ears open andbe attentive to the music.

His ability to listen and respond taste-fully is a key to his work as an in-demandaccompanist. To Wilkins, the main differ-ence between playing with a group andplaying with a singer is tempo and dynam-ics. "With a band you can play at anytempo, but a singer likes to sing a song in acertain tempo." As an accompanist he hasworked with stars like Tony Bennett andRay Charles and chanteuses includingSarah Vaughn, Cassandra Wilson and JayClayton.

For seven years, Wilkins was a fixtureat the Upper West Side eatery, Bella Luna.On Tuesday nights, guitarists in the knowwould flock there to hear Wilkins playduets. It was a magical experience in theart of imaginative conversation to see GeneBertoncini, Bucky Pizzarelli, HowardAlden and other great players mix it upwith the fleet-fingered Wilkins.

The guitarist is a lifelong educator whoteaches privately and at the ManhattanSchool of Music; he also was an adjunctprofessor at New York University, TheNew School and Long Island University.He received a National Endowment of theArts grant and has served on the selectioncommittee at the prestigious TheloniousMonk Institute's guitar competition.

Wilkins’ teaching methodology is sim-ple. "I just teach the fundamentals. I teachthe language. A lot of students wantinstant gratification but this isn't theMatrix," he explains. "They have to havegood time; they have to have good tone;they have to read, and ear development isvery essential. You can develop that. Youdon't have to have perfect pitch to havegreat ears."

With impressive credentials spanningmore than 40 years, why is the name JackWilkins not better known to the generallistening public? Now 70, Wilkins put itthis way. "The drummer Barry Altschultold me a long, long time ago, 'If you hangaround long enough people are going tofinally recognize you.' I'm actually gettingquite a lot of attention recently. I just dowhat I do."

Wilkins' most recent album as a leaderis Until It's Time from 2008 and he has anew trio recording, as yet untitled, that hecut in Paris and hopes to release soon. "Ilike it a great deal. It's very difficult for meto say this because usually I don't like any-thing I record. It's not that it isn't good, or

TRUMPETER MARCUS BELGRAVE,a bebopper whose musical mentorsincluded trumpeter Clifford Brown andsoul music innovator Ray Charles, hasmade an indelible imprint on Detroit's jazzscene for more than 50 years. He developedan atmosphere for promising young musi-cians to learn their craft, make their wayinto the local jazz scene and, in more thana handful of cases, find significant nationalexposure. "Geri Allen calls me 'TheNurturer.' That's what I'm doing,"Belgrave, now 78, says in his raspy voice."I'm just nurturing young talent."

Pianist Allen is among the most promi-nent beneficiaries of his grooming and hasgone on to mentor some college-level stu-dents previously influenced by Belgrave.Some other best-known are bassists BobHurst and Rodney Whitaker, saxophonistsJames Carter and Kenny Garrett, violinistRegina Carter and drummers KarriemRiggins and Ali Jackson.

Belgrave brings four more protégés toDizzy's Club Coca-Cola. His "Detroit crew,"as he calls it, includes former studentsMarion Hayden on bass, GayelynnMcKinney on drums, Ian Finkelstein (oneof those Allen students) on piano andMarcus Elliott on tenor sax, as well as hiswife, Joan Belgrave, on vocals.

"One of the key developments of my con-tinuation as an artist is that I was touchedby the masters. It is very important that Iam in a position to play with these youngpeople coming along," Belgrave says. "Atthis stage of my life, I don't like travelingas much as I did before. I'm getting achance to play as much as I want to, asmuch as I need to. These young kids keepme inspired."

Belgrave grew up in Chester PA, mid-way between Philadelphia andWilmington. At age 12, he got a job in acommunity band that also includedClifford Brown, a Wilmington native whowas five years older. Brown taught himhow to improvise, after writing outBelgrave's first solo for "How High theMoon." "I just got thrown in the water; Itook his place with the band on lead trum-pet a few years later. It just opened thedoor to the light. 'Hey, come on throughhere. This is the way you go.' I was soblessed to have been in that position and inthat company."

Belgrave came to prominence in the late1950s when Charles hired him. He is the

only surviving member of that RayCharles' small band horn section. He saysthe three and one-half years he spent withCharles taught him much about band lead-ership and about music. "Ray had tremen-dous ears, ideas and soul. He was 24/7 intothe music. I don't think he ever slept,"Belgrave says.

The young trumpeter also performedand recorded in the early 1960s with mod-ernists Charles Mingus, Eric Dolphy andMax Roach before he tired of the road. Hepicked Detroit as a home base chieflybecause of the Motown label. "There was aburgeoning music scene and they were pro-ducing more recordings than anybody inthe country at the time. I made moremoney in the studio in one day than I'dmake on the road with Ray Charles in aweek. That's why I decided to stay here."

Belgrave's playing on his distinctivecopper-belled trumpet (stolen from his carin March but found three days later in alocal pawnshop) is a treat because of hisBrownie-like approach to the horn, as wellas the ideas that flow out during his solos."The more I listen to young people nowa-days, they play the same solo style on everysong, whether it's a ballad or it's somethingfaster," Belgrave says. "Each song has itsown story to tell. Once you slow them downand tell them what the story is all about,it's not difficult to change that mindset.They'll say, 'Okay, I've got to express thisin a different way.'"

Everything about Belgrave's musiccomes back to teaching and mentoring,though he says he doesn't always feel likethe teacher. "Every student who wants totake lessons from me, I'm actually takinglessons from them," he says. "There is noway in the world we can know everythingthere is about this music. It continues tounfold from all directions."

Marcus Belgrave will appear atDizzy's Club Coca-Cola July 22-23 withMarcus Elliot, saxophone; IanFinkelstein, piano; Marion Hayden,bass; Gayelynn McKinney, drums andJoan Belgrave on vocal.

Another reason to celebratePiano and violin were bassist Lauren

Falls' first instruments. But as sheapproached her teens, she wanted to playdrums. "My brother was a drummer and Idon't think my parents could handle twodrummers in the house. They lightly sug-gested I try the bass and now it's my love."In college in her native Canada, Fallsbelonged to the now-defunct InternationalAssociation for Jazz Education's Sisters inJazz Program. "That was such a cool experi-ence; it was a big stepping stone for me. Itwas a big deal when we got to come to NewYork and perform at the IAJE convention."The Big Apple got under her skin and Fallsmoved here six years ago. The city inspiredthe compositions on her new recording, TheQuiet Fight. "There's a quiet fight to makingit happen, being strong, not giving up,though New York can be a tough city. It'sabout sticking it out and staying positive."She's enjoying the city's benefits along withthe challenges. "There's so much going on, Ihear as much music live as possible. I getinspired by fresh new music and then try tocome up with something myself. It's a posi-tive thing to be surrounded by so manyincredible musicians; it's inspirational."Besides fronting her own quintet, Fallsplays in projects from jazz to singer/song-writer and folk gigs. "I'm into trying differ-ent stuff to see if it's my thing." At CorneliaStreet Café July 1, Falls is marking herbirthday, Canada Day and the release ofThe Quiet Fight. Besides featuring tunesfrom the CD, they will play Falls' arrange-ments of Joni Mitchell compositions to cele-brate Canada Day.

Song everlastingAmong the lessons pianist/composer

Renee Rosnes learned firsthand from jazzgiants is: "The path of development neverends and that's how it should be." Sheplayed with trombonist J.J. Johnson forseveral years in the 1990s. "I learned somuch from being on the bandstand withhim. He was creating such memorable

solos, they sounded like they were written,but they weren't. His history, chops andmelodic gift all came together." Rosnescites similarities between Johnson and sax-ophonist James Moody: "They were both upin years, but they still practiced withenthusiasm and passion. They often talkedabout voicings, figuring out how to makesomething work. I'm grateful to haveplayed with masters who were still learn-ing and growing." In structuring her sets,Rosnes aims to "engage people and takethem on some kind of journey. The pro-gramming is important. That's why I don'tlike to speak too much between tunes: itbreaks the spirit of what's happeningbetween the musicians. There's magic inletting the music flow from one piece to thenext without a voice interrupting." In July,listeners will have a chance to experiencethe Rosnes style of magic in a variety ofways. On Canada Day, July 1, theCanadian-born musician kicks off a weekat the Village Vanguard, focusing on newand older originals with her quartet. Themusic of Miles Davis is in the spotlightJuly 24 at the Kaufmann Concert Hall atthe Tisch Center. Rosnes salutes anothermaster from her past, Joe Henderson, atthe Caramoor Jazz Festival in Katonah onJuly 27. "I love playing Caramoor, it's anice venue with good spirits all around,"she says. "I'll be speaking about Joe (in apre-concert discussion) and celebratingJoe's music—his music is really in myheart." Rosnes wraps up the month byreturning to the Kaufmann Center July 31,for I Won't Dance: Music from the FredAstaire Songbook. She says, "There's tonsof material to draw from and a very eclec-tic band," including Bill Charlap, SachalVasandani, Carl Allen and George Mraz.

I had bass lessons with Steve Swallow anddiscovered that I didn't like to press thestrings." Her parents, pianist/composer/arranger Carla Bley and composer/trum-peter Michael Mantler, "had hopes I'dbecome a doctor or lawyer" and perhapsthat seemed like a possibility to them for awhile. Though she had piano lessons fromage four and could read music before shecould read words, as a child Mantler foundit "hard to get into adventurous jazz. Ithought: 'This is horrible!' At ten I onlywanted to listen to The Who and RobertWyatt." But she found herself "insertedinto whatever project they were workingon," from singing on Bley's Escalator overthe Hill to playing glockenspiel in herband: "That's a good instrument for a kid toplay," Mantler says. She also spent a lot oftime with other musicians' kids, includingEric Mingus, Jonathan Sanborn andArturo O'Farrill. "Eventually, they gave upon the dream of having a doctor or lawyer."Mantler was kicked out of her high schoolband, followed by receiving "the lowestgrades at Berklee by refusing to learn anyof the clichés." She has collaborated withmany members of her early circle. "Arturowas in Carla's band when I was ten, whenI was playing glockenspiel," Mantler says,"We were the babies in the band; 25 yearslater he played piano in my band." Her newCD, Business is Bad (ECM), contains songsabout matters big and small, global andpersonal, whimsical and heavy. She'll cele-brate its release at SubCulture July 31."The band and the music will be exactlywhat's on the record," Mantler says. "I dida fair amount of overdubbing and thingsthat were impossible to play live, back inthe day. This time, I wanted somethingauthentic and ready to go."

Musician-Presenter's CornerAs trumpeter Mark Morganelli nears his

40th year of producing jazz events, it'sarguably become easier to look at a list ofartists he hasn't presented. Indeed, suchluminaries as Art Blakey, Betty Carter,Lionel Hampton, Wynton Marsalis, ClarkTerry, Sonny Rollins, Diana Krall, DaveBrubeck and many, many more haveappeared regularly under the auspices ofMorganelli's Jazz Forum Arts organization.Formally incorporated in 1985, Jazz ForumArts has made an extraordinarily largefootprint through its efforts as a presenterin the tri-state area, offering a heady mix oflegends and rising stars in free or low-costperformances.

The organization's successful alchemydates back to Morganelli's earliest effortsin the music industry. An active trumpeterin the New York scene, by 1979 Morganelliwas operating a rehearsal big band in hisloft. "I wound up thinking, 'You know, I'mrehearsing with all these artists. Wouldn'tit be great to feature them in my loft?'" herecalls. "My whole concept from the begin-ning was to feature emerging and estab-lished artists."

This epiphany heralded the Jazz Forumand Morganelli quickly expanded the visionby inviting Clifford Jordan, Jimmy Cobb,Cedar Walton, Roy Haynes, BobbySanabria and many more to perform in thespace. "It just mushroomed," he remem-bers. "I won't say it was all smooth sailing,but it gave me a good feeling." Early on,Barry Harris began holding his workshopsthere, weekly jam sessions emerged, nightsdevoted to rising talents were allotted andthe programming took on a clear form andstructure.

Eventually losing the lease on his loft,Morganelli quickly switched gears to pre-senting at the Village Gate and incorporat-ed Jazz Forum Arts as a non-profit pre-senting organization in 1985. Relocating toDobbs Ferry, Morganelli oversaw anextraordinary expansion of his presentingefforts that has since led to the organiza-tion's presence in Massachusetts,Connecticut, New York and New Jersey.All the more impressive, Morganelli hasenvisioned and enacted a plan to keep hisevents free or low-cost to the public, a featachieved through close relationships withlongstanding sponsors.

Indeed, this July serves as a testamentto Morganelli's artistic chops as well as tothe acumen that has guided his efforts. Thefree Dobbs Ferry Summer Series (celebrat-

brating its 15th anniversary), the fifthannual Sunset Jazz events in Tarrytown,the Twilight Concert Series at John JayCollege and more all demonstrate an over-arching commitment to presenting a widearray of talents, both established and ris-ing voices. That desire to represent themany generations of jazz artists harkensback to Morganelli's earliest productionsand has remained a guiding principle forhim ever since.

"I've been blessed and fortunate,"Morganelli says. "I've had the pleasure ofpresenting so many great artists to thepublic over these many years." With luck,Morganelli and Jazz Forum Arts willremain a staple of the area's jazz scene for many more years to come. Find outmore about Jazz Forum Arts by visitingjazzforumarts.org.

run in July, featuring a variety of top-shelfjazz acts. James Langton's New York All-Star Big Band presents Clarinet a la King:A Tribute to Benny Goodman on July 5;Vince Giordano's Nighthawks return to theseries on July 8; and the HarlemRenaissance Orchestra offers its tenthannual tribute to Illinois Jacquet, featuringspecial guest James Carter.

Pianist/composer Jason Yeager strives totell a story with everything he writes andplays and he believes in the power of musicto positively impact the world around us. Aformer double major in Music andInternational Relations at New EnglandConservatory, Yeager is a multi-facetedartist with a deep outlook, bringing manydifferent influences to his music. A record-ing artist on Greg Osby's Inner Circle label,Jason released his first album as a leader in2011, entitled Ruminations. The CD fea-tures Danny Weller on bass and MattRousseau on drums. While at NEC, he wasa student of piano titans Danilo Perez, FredHersch and Ran Blake. Now based in NewYork, Yeager will be bringing a quartet toJazz at Kitano to showcase some of his orig-inal music. The group will consist of his reg-ular trio of Rousseau and Weller and willfeature vocalist Aubrey Johnson, withwhom Yeager has played in the past.

Yeager says much of his influences aredrawn from 20th Century classical music,folk music and blues. In fact, he oncearranged part of Oliver Messiaen's"Quartet for the End of Time" for his trio.Yeager has performed before at Jazz at

Kitano in the Tuesday Solo Piano series,which gives young, up and coming pianiststhe chance to play solo four times a monthon their world-class Steinway. Yeager iscurrently working on writing the materialwhich will likely comprise his secondalbum, a set of pieces based of articles ofwar journalism.

JAZZ ANECDOTE BY BILL CROWBill Crow's books "Jazz Anecdotes" and "From Birdland to Broadway" can be

found at your favorite bookstore, and at www.billcrowbass.com along with many interesting photos and links.

At one of those Zoot Sims parties in the New School auditorium, I was seated a couple ofrows from the back of the hall, listening to the music while waiting to play. Dorothy Doneganhad agreed to perform, but asked to go on early, since she had to get to an evening giguptown. Wearing her signature sequined Chanel cap, Dorothy played a couple of tunes,thanked the audience, and hurried up the aisle toward the exit doors. As she passed the rowwhere I was sitting, a young girl rushed up to her and gushed, "Oh, Miss Donegan, you werewonderful!" Dorothy grabbed both her hands, examined her with obvious approval, and thenarchly inquired. "Was I?"

On Facebook a photo of a sign from a Canadian park reads: NO JAZZ PLAYING PLEASE.Many people use this park for fun, exercise and personal enjoyment. Don't wreck it by play-ing stupid jazz music. Jazz has been shown to make good people snobby and has even ruinedthe natural creativity of some good musicians. Just say "no" to yucky jazz. City of TorontoDepartment of Parks and Recreation.

Steve and his ensemble played asold-out, two-sets-a-night week in May, but itdidn't deter him from being the gracious hostIf Steve offers you apple pie, say "yes." It'sdelicious!
