SUMMARY:Jazz Weekend 2019
DESCRIPTION:Join us to catch this fantastic lineup: \nCamila Meza & The Nectar Orchestra: Sat 1pm\n \nCamila Meza\, equally prized as a vocalist\, guitarist and composer\, has brought a sound full of warmth\, intricacy and rhythmic clarity to the New York jazz scene ever since her arrival from Santiago\, Chile in 2009. Inspired by jazz\, South American music and American popular song of many eras and genres\, she has uplifted audiences worldwide with her rare combination of talents: assured and beautiful singing; highly advanced guitar; and vividly colorful\, melodic songwriting that reveals complex layers with every listen. Her latest album\, Ámbar\, released on Sony Masterworks\, features her group The Nectar Orchestra\, an 8-piece group consisting of guitar/voice\, piano\, bass\, drums with string quartet. \nCamila Meza & The Nectar Orchestra: \nCamila Meza – Guitar & Vocals\nEden Ladin – Piano\nNoam Wiesenberg – Bass\, String arrangements\nKeita Ogawa – Drums\nTomoko Omura – Violin\nFung Chern Hwei – Violin\nBenni von Gutzeit – Viola\nBrian Sanders – Cello \n  \nWayne Escoffery Quartet: Sat 2:45pm\n \nDownbeat Critics Poll Winner and Grammy Award-winning tenor saxophonist Wayne Escoffery is one of the jazz world’s most talented rising stars and in-demand sidemen. \nFor the past decade\, Escoffery has toured the globe with trumpeter Tom Harrell\, recorded seven CDs with The Tom Harrell Quintet and co-produced four of those releases. He has also been a member of The Mingus Dynasty\, Big Band and Orchestra since 2000 and has made several recordings with that group. He has recorded and performed internationally with the who’s who in jazz including Ron Carter\, Ben Riley\, Abdullah Ibrahim\, Eric Reed\, Carl Allen\, Al Foster\, Billy Hart\, Eddie Henderson\, Rufus Reid\, Wallace Roney and Herbie Hancock. \nWayne Escoffery Quartet:\nWayne Escoffery – Saxophone\nDavid Kikoski – Piano\nUgonna Okegwo – Bass\nRalph Peterson – Drums \n  \nChano Domínguez – Piano Ibérico: Sat 4:30pm\n \nFor over 40 years\, internationally acclaimed jazz pianist Chano Domínguez has integrated the rhythms and languages of jazz and flamenco\, placing him among the most influential musicians in the history of flamenco-jazz. \nHe has released over 20 albums as a bandleader\, and has collaborated extensively with other jazz artists including Paquito D’Rivera\, Gonzalo Rubalcaba\, Joe Lovano\, Chucho Valdes\, Wynton Marsalis and the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra. \nPiano Ibérico features Chano’s trio of piano\, bass and percussion augmented by flamenco singer Ismael Fernandez and flamenco dancer Sonia Olla. \nThis performance of Chano Domínguez’s Piano Ibérico has been made possible with support from Chamber Music America’s 2017 New Jazz\nWorks program funded through the generosity of the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation. \nChano Domínguez – Piano Ibérico:\nChano Domínguez – Piano\nSonia Olla – Dance\nIsmael Fernandez – Vocals\nAlexis Cuadrado – Bass\nJose Moreno – Percussion \n\n\nNate Smith + KINFOLK: Sat 7:30pm\n \nSince moving from Chesapeake\, Virginia to New York City in 2001\, Nate Smith has helped reinvigorate the international jazz scene with his visceral style of drumming by playing with such esteemed leading lights as guitarist Pat Metheny\, bassist Dave Holland\, saxophonists Chris\nPotter and Ravi Coltrane\, and singers Patricia Barber\, Somi\, and José James. \nThe New York Times described Smith as “a firecracker of a drummer.” Smith’s rising career reaches a new benchmark with the release of his bandleader debut\, KINFOLK: Postcards from Everywhere\, on which he fuses his original modern jazz compositions with R&B\, pop\, and hip-hop. \nNate Smith + KINFOLK:\nNate Smith – drums\nJon Cowherd – piano\nFima Ephron – bass\nJaleel Shaw – sax\nAmma Whatt – vocals\nBrad Allen Williams – guitar\n  \nJohn Ellis & Double-Wide: Sun 1pm\n \nGifted\, versatile saxophonist/clarinetist/composer John Ellis occupies an imaginary (and extremely imaginative) space directly between the celebratory\, welcoming spirit of New Orleans and the edgy\, frantic streets of New York City. Ellis expresses a keen intellect and easy\nvirtuosity while maintaining a mischievous gleam in his eye and never letting tongue stray far from cheek. That dichotomy perfectly encapsulates his group Double-Wide’s split metropolitan personality\, with a chainsaw-juggling balance of bayou brass\, raucous gospel\, and devil-may-care modern jazz. \nJohn Ellis & Double Wide:\nJohn Ellis – Saxophone\nMatt Perrine – Sousaphone\nAlan Ferber – Trombone\nGary Versace – Organ and accordion\nJason Marsalis – Drums \n  \nNicole Zuraitis: Sun 2:45pm\n \nGrammy-nominated vocalist\, pianist and songwriter\, Nicole Zuraitis blends clever songwriting skills\, an effervescent presence and dazzling vocals in a consummate package that has thrilled audiences around the world. While pursuing a career that has spanned jazz\, pop and classical\, Nicole has collaborated with Cyrille Aimee\, Thana Alexa\, Dave Stryker\, Livingston Taylor\, Tom Chapin\, Omar Hakim\, Melanie Safka\, Helen Sung and Bernard Purdie. She is the vocalist for the world-famous Birdland Big Band in New York City and her latest album Hive Mind won Best Jazz Album in the 2018 International Music and Entertainment Awards. \nNicole Zuraitis:\nNicole Zuraitis – Voice/piano\nIdan Morim – Guitar\nAlex Busby Smith – Bass\nDan Pugach – Drums \n  \n  \nDafnis Prieto Sextet: Sun 4:30pm\n \nCuban drummer\, composer\, bandleader and MacArthur ‘Genius’ Fellow Dafnis Prieto’s revolutionary drumming techniques and compositions have had a powerful impact on the Latin and jazz music scene\, nationally and internationally. \nHis latest big band album Back to the Sunset recently won a Grammy Award for Best Latin Jazz Album. \nSince his arrival to New York in 1999\, Prieto has worked in bands led by Henry Threadgill\, Steve Coleman\, Eddie Palmieri\, Chico and Arturo O’Farrill\, Dave Samuels and The Caribbean Jazz Project\, Jane Bunnett\, D.D. Jackson\, Edward Simon\, Michel Camilo\, Chucho Valdés\, Bebo Valdés\, Roy Hargrove\, Don Byron\, and Andrew Hill. \nDafnis Prieto Sextet:\nAlex Norris\, Trumpet\nRoman Filiu\, Alto Saxophone\nPeter Apfelbaum\, Tenor Saxophone\nOsmany Paredes\, Piano\nJohannes Weidenmueller\, Bass\nDafnis Prieto\, Drums \nthank you to our sponsors:\n                \n\n

SUMMARY:SEVEN COUNT: "After the Tone"
DESCRIPTION:Running from September 14 through October 19\, 2019\, the Lake George Arts Project’s Courthouse Gallery presents After the Tone\, a unique multidisciplinary\, improvisational\, multimedia installation which will include two separate live performances created by the artist collective Seven Count: Angus McCullough\, Jake Nussbaum and Adam Tinkle.  \nOn September 14\, 6.30 pm\, Seven Count will play a variety of instruments (trumpet\, saxophone\, guitar\, percussion) and a vast library of samples\, taking audiences on a genre-bending improvisatory trip embedded in the immersive installation they created specifically for the Courthouse Gallery.  (Lake George Arts Project Jazz Weekend fans\, note that this event takes place between sets of musicians performing in nearby Shepard Park\, allowing time to attend both.) There will be a closing reception on October 19\, 4 – 6 pm\, including a second live performance at 5 pm that is the culmination of content gathered during this 5-week exhibition.  All events are FREE. \nThe exhibition After the Tone is expected to evolve in response to viewer participation. Adam Tinkle\, Seven Count member\, explains: “After the Tone is an immersive\, interactive collage in multiple media: including sound installation\, archival ephemera on paper and video\, and a deck of cards for divination and creative strategy. The continuous soundscape projected from around the gallery offers a space for meditative reflection\, while the other elements suggest new ways to listen and provide pathways for discovery and inspiration. Though disparate in form\, these varied threads all emerge from the artists’ years-long process of improvised music-making\, pirate radio broadcasting\, collaboration with friends and strangers\, and resulting development of a cosmology of sound and social interaction.” \nSeven Count is Angus McCullough\, Jake Nussbaum and Adam Tinkle. Its collective output to date includes two LPs of music (on Risky Forager Records)\, three gallery exhibitions (at Border Patrol in Portland\, ME\, at BUOY in Kittery\, ME\, and at Community Arts Phoenixville\, PA)\, an editioned ‘zine with cassette (shown at artist book fairs across the Northeast)\, a sonic dinner and tea ceremony\, as well as numerous live performances and radio broadcasts. \n\nThis exhibition is funded in part by the Alfred Z. Solomon Charitable Trust; Adirondack Studios; the Community Exchange Foundation; Mannix Marketing; the New York State Council on The Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature. The Courthouse Gallery is located at the side entrance of the Old County Courthouse\, corner of Canada and Lower Amherst Streets\, Lake George\, NY. The Courthouse Gallery hours during exhibitions are Tuesday through Friday 12 – 5 pm\, Saturday 12 – 4 pm\, and all other times by appointment. \nthank you to our sponsors:
