SUMMARY:James Brandon Lewis
DESCRIPTION:1601 Johnston St\, Vancouver\, BC V6H 3R9 \nCalled “one of the modern titans of the tenor” by All About Jazz\, James Brandon Lewis’ Jesup Wagon was named 2021 Album of the Year by both Downbeat and JazzTimes. A song cycle inspired by George Washington Carver\, its dreamlike mosaic of gospel\, folk-blues and catcalling brass bands established Lewis as one of the most provocative musical voices of his generation. \nSince then\, he’s with post-punk instrumental power trio The Messthetics (featuring Fugazi’s rhythm section)\, hip-hop MC P.SO the Earth Tone King\, and on Marc Ribot’s folk/Americana Songs of Resistance. The legendary Sonny Rollins said of Lewis “when I listen to you\, I listen to Buddha\, I listen to Confucius…I listen to the deeper meaning of life.” \nLewis is joined by Chicago Underground co-founder Chad Taylor drums\, and Josh Werner (Bill Laswell\, Ches Smith). \nThis show is part of our Granville Island Jazz series

SUMMARY:NOW with Farida Amadou
DESCRIPTION:1601 Johnston St\, Vancouver\, BC V6H 3R9 \nAn evening of attuned explorations\, transformative energy\, and open-hearted creativity. Belgian bassist Farida Amadou uses electronics and extended technique to conjure abstracted sounds that move from miniscule to overwhelming. A cellist of remarkable imagination and ingenuity\, Peggy Lee is known for her sublime compositions and collaborations with Wayne Horvitz\, Mary Margaret O’Hara\, and Dave Douglas. “If the new improvisational movement means to convey the spirit of jazz without reiterating its stylistic clichés\, then pianist Lisa Cay Miller deserves to be considered one of its leading lights” (Globe and Mail). Using baritone sax\, voice\, and electronics\, Montreal-based Ida Toninato is “a marvel of technique and emotion” (Exclaim) with an ear for the unknown and a deep interest in sonic phenomena\, while eclectic drummer Mili Hong (The Watermill Project\, Moondle) is a quickly-emerging presence on the national jazz scene. \nCo-produced with the NOW Society. \nThis show is part of our Granville Island Jazz series. \n

SUMMARY:Marina Hasselberg + Matt Choboter
DESCRIPTION:1601 Johnston St\, Vancouver\, BC V6H 3R9 \nMarina Hasselberg \nEclectic and award-winning cellist Marina Hasselberg “has become a standout presence on Vancouver’s music scene” (Georgia Straight). Like her new Jesse Zubot-produced album Red\, her solo sets are a provocative\, deeply personal mix of classification-resistant written works and adventurous improvised excursions\, with Hasselberg employing extended techniques\, a variety of bows and accessories\, and electronics to skirt the fine line between the known and the unknown. \nMatt Choboter \nAcross five albums and countless collaborations\, composer/pianist Matt Choboter has made “post-jazz of a distinctly personalized kind” (Textura). Marking the release of his first solo album Postcards of Nostalgia on ILK Music (Denmark)\, Choboter attaches transducers to the piano’s soundboard (making it a speaker) in order to play electronic improvisations\, drone collages\, and field recordings in a remarkable “duet” with himself.

SUMMARY:Nduduzo Makhathini
DESCRIPTION:1218 Cartwright St\, Vancouver\, BC V6H 3R8 \nPianist\, composer\, and improviser Nduduzo Makhathini is a central figure in South Africa’s vibrant jazz scene. His tenth album In the Spirit of Ntu is the inaugural release on the newly formed Blue Note Africa imprint\, and though it’s guided by cosmological and spiritual concepts\, “what you’ll feel most acutely isn’t incorporeal but deeply human\, a potent brew of fury\, joy\, and solidarity” (JazzTimes). A long-time collaborator with Shabaka Hutchings\, Makhathini has also worked with Wynton Marsalis\, Jaleel Shaw\, and scores of other greats\, carrying influences from John Coltrane and McCoy Tyner alongside the spirit of interconnectedness at the core of the ancient philosophy of Ntu. \nDrawing on the powerful echoes of pre-colonial Africa\, Nduduzo Makhathini’s ambitious music is an act of cultural reclamation and spiritual communion\, using remarkable technique in search of what he calls “that moment of revelation\, or in the African context\, a moment of divination.” With Francisco Mela drums and Swelakhe Duma Bell Le Pere bass.

SUMMARY:Cory Weeds Quintet featuring Atley King & David Hazeltine
DESCRIPTION:Alto saxophonist Cory Weeds teams up with frequent collaborator\, New York City pianist David Hazeltine for a night of hard swinging thoughtful jazz.

Even more impressive\, David is the rare artist able to innovate in each category.

SUMMARY:Caroline Davis' Alula ft. Chris Tordini and Kate Gentile
DESCRIPTION:1601 Johnston St\, Vancouver\, BC V6H 3R9 \nInitial inspiration for Caroline Davis’ “most formally innovative group yet” (New York Times) sprang from the pages of The Sibley Guide to Birds\, specifically the hidden part of a wing that appears like magic during take-off and landing. The Brooklyn-based saxophonist/vocalist’s complex\, beautiful balance of improv and composed material reveals and occludes\, taking unexpected flight paths to wherever Davis points her remarkable imagination. A Downbeat Rising Star winner who’s worked with Marquis Hill\, Lee Konitz\, Angelica Sanchez\, and Deerhoof’s Greg Saunier\, Caroline Davis’ Alula features Chris Tordini (Tyshawn Sorey\, John Hollenbeck) bass and Kate Gentile (Ava Mendoza\, Matt Mitchell) drums. \nThis show is part of our Granville Island Jazz series

DESCRIPTION:Featuring 15 of the world’s finest players\, the remarkably versatile Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra (JLCO) has been performing\, educating\, and proudly flying the flag for jazz traditions across the globe and at their Lincoln Center home base – aka the House of Swing – since 1988. Under Music Director Wynton Marsalis\, they animate a vast repertoire\, from historic compositions by Ellington\, Monk\, Mingus\, and Mary Lou Williams\, to Jazz at Lincoln Center-commissioned works from current and former JLCO members like Marsalis\, Ted Nash\, Victor Goines\, Sherman Irby\, Chris Crenshaw\, and Carlos Henriquez. Expect an all-Wynton program this evening as the JLCO pays tribute to a living legend. \nCalled “the modern day Duke Ellington\, Glenn Miller and Gerry Mulligan all in one” by All About Jazz\, trumpeter/composer/bandleader Wynton Marsalis is an iconic jazz master. Born into the famed New Orleans musical family\, he was playing in the Fairview Baptist Church Band at 8 years old\, and the New Orleans Philharmonic by 12. He moved to New York in ‘79\, fresh out of high school\, and quickly traded his Julliard plans for a spot in Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers. At 19\, Wynton hit the road with his own band and has been touring the world ever since\, picking up nine GRAMMY Awards\, a Pulitzer Prize\, and a boatload of acclaim along the way. He eventually did find his way back to Julliard—as the prestigious school’s Founding Director of Jazz Studies. Wynton Marsalis sees jazz as a way of life\, a model of democratic action\, and “a prism through which American culture can be understood” (New York Times). Through his compositions\, virtuosic playing\, and tireless work as Music Director of Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra\, Marsalis promotes individual creativity (improvisation)\, collective cooperation (swing)\, and gratitude (sophistication)\, while facing adversity with persistent optimism (the blues). \nWYNTON MARSALIS\, Music Director\, Trumpet\nRYAN KISOR\, Trumpet\nKENNY RAMPTON\, Trumpet\nMARCUS PRINTUP\, Trumpet\nVINCENT GARDNER\, Trombone\nCHRIS CRENSHAW\, Trombone\, The Golkin Family Chair\nELLIOT MASON\, Trombone\nSHERMAN IRBY\, Alto and Soprano Saxophones\, Flute\, Clarinet\nALEXA TARANTINO\, Alto and Soprano Saxophones\, Flute\, Clarinet\nCHRIS LEWIS\, Tenor and Soprano Saxophones\, Clarinet\, Bass Clarinet\nABDIAS ARMENTEROS\, Tenor and Soprano Saxophones\, Clarinet\nPAUL NEDZELA\, Baritone and Soprano Saxophones\, Clarinet\, Bass Clarinet\nDAN NIMMER\, Piano\, The Zou Family Chair\nCARLOS HENRIQUEZ\, Bass\, The Mandel Family Chair in honor of Kathleen B.

SUMMARY:IronFest IV: Beatings Are In The Body
DESCRIPTION:Beatings Are In The Body is a powerful and enigmatic project from three of Canada’s leading figures in experimental music — Vancouver-based pianist/composer/improviser Róisin Adams (of Hildegard’s Ghost)\, Montréal-based experimental vocalist/composer Erika Angell (of Thus Owls)\, and fellow Vancouverite Peggy Lee — renowned cellist/composer/improviser. As their name indicates there’s a raw\, volatile dimension to the music they create\, “it’s an investigation of how memories\, pain\, and a spectrum of emotions are stored in and continue to be carried by our physical bodies.” Their unflinching\, self-titled debut full-length album resides in the dark fissures between adventurous acoustic songcraft\, poetry\, and the outright abstraction of free improv. \nPresented in collaboration with Heart of the City Festival.

SUMMARY:IronFest IV: Josh Cole's Kind Mind
DESCRIPTION:Josh Cole’s Kind Mind is an electro-acoustic chamber ensemble based in Toronto featuring three of Canada’s premiere improvising musicians – Karen Ng alto saxophone/clarinet/synth\, Michael Davidson vibraphone/marimba/pedals and Josh Cole double bass/pedals/synth/sampler. Rooted in an approach to improvisation that has been brewing in the Toronto creative music hub “The Tranzac” for decades\, the trio explores a fractured\, sparse\, and timbral approach reinforced by brief compositions and a long history of collective music making. “I like the trio’s unique musical vision\, its tender and determined sound and the way it is delivered: with quality and precision. To create your own voice in the crowded musical environment of today is a feat.” (freejazzblog) \nPresented in collaboration with Heart of the City Festival with support from Canada Council.

SUMMARY:IronFest IV: Craig Taborn
DESCRIPTION:Brooklyn-based Craig Taborn has been performing piano and electronic music in the jazz\, improvisational\, and creative music scene for over twenty five years. He has experience composing for and performing in a wide variety of situations including jazz\, new music\, electronic\, rock\, noise and avant garde contexts. The New York Times Magazine calls Taborn “One of the best jazz pianists alive.” \nCraig Taborn’s 2021 live album Avenging Angel was widely praised for the fresh ideas it brought to the solo piano idiom. The Guardian saluted Craig’s “genius (there is no other word for it)” and his “world of whispered\, wide-spaced figures\, ringing overtones\, evaporating echoes and glowering contrapuntal cascades.” Over the last decade Taborn has continued to refine and develop his approach\, reaching new high ground with Shadow Plays\, a stunning live recital from Vienna’s Konzerthaus. In this fully improvised concert\, recorded in March 2020\, Craig explores sounds and silences\, swirling colours\, densities and forms\, creating new music in the moment with both poetic imagination and an iron grip on his spontaneously generated material. \nPresented in collaboration with Heart of the City Festival.

SUMMARY:Unwritten Thursdays: Chris Corsano & Elisa Thorne + Cat Toren\, James Meger & Liam Murphy
DESCRIPTION:MONTHLY SERIES AT TYRANT STUDIOS (1019 Seymour St. *upstairs*) \nPresented in collaboration by Barking Sphinx Performing Society and Coastal Jazz \n9pm doors\n9:30pm music\n$15-20 \n(Tickets are not available for purchase until January 18th) \n1st set: CHRIS CORSANO & ELISA THORNE \n2nd set: CAT TOREN\, JAMES MEGER & LIAM MURPHY \nChris Corsano is a New York-based drummer who has been working at the intersections of free jazz\, avant-rock\, and experimental music since the late ’90s. He’s a rim-batterer of choice for some of the greatest contemporary purveyors of “jazz” (Joe McPhee\, Mette Rasmussen\, Zoh Amba) and “rock” (Sir Richard Bishop\, Bill Orcutt\, Jim O’Rourke)\, as well as artists beyond categorization (Björk for her Volta album and world tour\, Michael Flower\, Okkyung Lee). Appearing on over 180 albums and touring in an ultra-wide array of collaborations\, he’s a renowned solo performer in his own right\, with a record due out later this year on the Drag City label. He’s built a highly inventive musical language through ecstatic free improvisation\, extended percussion techniques\, and the augmentation of his kit with circular-breathed reeds and bowed strings that coax new resonances out of the drums’ heads. Corsano’s been called “one of the world’s great drummers” by The Guardian\, an “ace of the avant-garde” by The New York Times\, a “powerhouse drummer” by Rolling Stone\, and “arguably the most riotously energetic and creative drummer in contemporary free jazz” by Wire Magazine. Spin ranked him as one of the “100 Greatest Drummers of Alternative Music\,” and in 2017\, he received the Foundation for Contemporary Arts Grants to Artists Award. \nArts & design: Leisure Thief
