He said the Africans were meticulous preservationists; that it had taken him several days of rehearsal to win their trust; of how he learned to use the piano to extend the harmonic limits of their mostly pentatonic scales of their koras and balafons, and of the extreme wealth he&#8217;d seen touring North Africa, juxtaposed with widespread poverty. A superb pianist, Edsel made the funky instrument in my classroom ring orchestrally through his version of &#8220;Afro Blue,&#8221; written by Mongo Santamaria and sung by Dee Dee on her Red Earth tour (which lasted on and off for three years). He mentioned his fascinating background, too: Growing up in Puerto Rico playing in salsa bands, arriving at Berklee School of Music when he was 17, away from home the first time, speaking mostly English suddenly, having to make his way; 10 years living in Brazil, then his return to the U.S. His next gigs are in the <a href=\"http:\/\/wyntonmarsalis.org\/tour\/detail\/7041\">Chick Corea Festival<\/a> scheduled for May at Jazz at Lincoln Center.<\/p>\n<p>I annotated at least a couple of the albums Ralph Simon organized and co-starred on in the &#8217;90s (notably <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Music-Millennium-Ralph-Simon\/dp\/B000ETZGVU\/?tag=howardmacom-20\"><em>Magic Club: Music for the Millenium<\/em><\/a>, with collaborators including Paul Bley, Gary Peacock, Julian Priester, Bruce Ditmas, Alan Pasqua). Upon the label&#8217;s sale and evident demise several years ago, he retrained himself as a family therapist, but now he&#8217;s got the jazz itch again. Simon believes there&#8217;s talent still to be encouraged, recorded and enjoyed from the jazz era Ken Burns skipped over (that would be from the death of Coltrane, 1967, to the rise of Jazz at Lincoln Center, circa 1987) and is eager to discover some of the new talents I mentioned who have emerged while he&#8217;s been engaged elsewhere. Simon&#8217;s considering, plotting, gathering forces. . .and I told him times are tough for selling jazz albums, but yes, we want good new ones. . .<\/p>\n<p>Holding a crowd playing solo bass ain&#8217;t easy. Tell it to Charnett Moffett &#8212; who has worked with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsjournal.com\/jazzbeyondjazz\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/charnett.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.artsjournal.com\/jazzbeyondjazz\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/charnett.jpeg\" alt=\"charnett\" width=\"186\" height=\"271\" \/><\/a>Wynton Marsalis, Ornette Coleman, Stanley Jordan and McCoy Tyner, among others &#8212; has his program down and his chops way up for the widely-drawn repertoire he plays. Completely exposed in this setting, he demonstrated a virtuosic manner of weaving the rhythm, melody and harmonic extensions of songs by Sting, the Beatles, Monk, Mingus, Ellington et al. into performances that throbbed and glistened. The crowd seemed to like it; I did, too, otherwise I wouldn&#8217;t have written the notes or introduced him from the bandstand.<\/p>\n<p>Wow is the right term of the Mahanthappa-Fiuczynski front line &#8212; they are two of the fiercest lyrical hard-blowers now. Fuze plays double-necked guitars, sliding microtonally around the unfretted one, picking unbelievably fast and intricate figures with rock-star alacrity on the fretted. Rudresh pours his breath through his alto in impossibly long lines, with exquisite sighing inflections as well as a righteous burn. Mouton and Weiss both dug in, too. My colleague Bill Milkowski, sitting with me, said &#8216;They<a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsjournal.com\/jazzbeyondjazz\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/gamak.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1316 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.artsjournal.com\/jazzbeyondjazz\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/gamak.jpeg\" alt=\"gamak\" width=\"275\" height=\"183\" \/><\/a> sound like Prime Time,&#8221; and I answered, &#8220;Prime Time from Hawaii,&#8221; due to the slack-key\/surf&#8217;s up qualities; there were nods to the Grateful Dead and Mahavishnu Orchestra, not to mention Fuze&#8217;s old outfit the Screaming Headless Torsos. Wow they were smokin&#8217;. I&#8217;d go again.<\/p>\n<p>The Jazz Journalists Association having nominated Bria Skonberg for the 2013 Up and Coming Artist Award, I wanted to check her out, and I&#8217;m glad I did. She&#8217;s a bright young woman from British Columbia who sings and plays trumpet, shares patter with her bassist and occasional vocal partner Cronin, and has put together a program called &#8220;Brass and Belles&#8221; that revives Valaida Snow&#8217;s &#8220;High Hat, Trumpet and Rhythm&#8221; as well as &#8220;Let&#8217;s Call the Whole Thing Off&#8221; (a la Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong) and &#8220;September Song&#8221; (referring to Sarah Vaughan with Clifford Brown). These selections are lively, and if some of her horn playing seems more studied than spontaneous, when she loses herself in a giddy version of &#8220;Old Black Magic&#8221; (from Keely Smith with Louis Prima), she wins grins. Pianist Ridenhour was at his best on a blues, and drummer Douglas is fresh to NYC from New Orleans, as one could hear from his backbeat.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve received more than 50 cds potentially for review since April 1 (more than 100 since March 14), plus a couple of dozen links to music for downloading, and have sampled them spottily, which isn&#8217;t a good way to get into new music. The good way, without doubt, is to sit down, relaxed, and let the sounds roll over you.
