Last night the Emil Viklick\u00c3\u00bd Trio appeared at the small Seattle club Lucid, following up the film screening described in yesterday\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s post. Lucid has the intimacy, camaraderie and absence of a cover charge reminiscent of jazz clubs in the 1950s and \u00e2\u20ac\u02dc60s. One significant difference from those days; at Lucid, as at many clubs today, the pianist must supply his own instrument, the kind that plugs into the wall. In the first set, Viklick\u00c3\u00bd, bassist Clipper Anderson and drummer Don Kinney concentrated on the pianist\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s compositions from his recent Sinfonieta<\/em><\/a> album and others inspired by his admiration for the Czech composer Leo\u00c5\u00a1 Jan\u00c3\u00a1\u00c4\u008dek. <\/p>\n

The second set sitters-in included solo vocalist Berenika Kohoutova from Prague and three other actors from Rhythm On My Heels<\/em>, the motion picture discussed in the previous exhibit. The music ranged from standards by Victor Young, Hoagy Carmichael and Sonny Rollins to \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Bim-Bam,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d a Czech popular song from 1941 that is a highlight of the movie. Thanks to photographer Stacey Jehlik for these shots of the festivities.<\/p>\n

He, bassist George Mraz, drummer Billy Hart and the Czech singer and screen star Iva Bittov\u00c3\u00a1 will reprise music from Mraz\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s album Moravian Gems<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
