USA: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Jazz Club of Sarasota announces "World of Jazz" for 38th Sarasota Jazz Festival, March 7-10, 2018

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: January 2018 Contacts: Jo Morello, 941.587.8290; Carline Ash, 941.366.1552 (Wed.-Fri., 9-5) Musician interviews & photos available. Click HERE for the Sarasota Jazz Festival website with short soundtracks and detailed event schedule. SARASOTA, FL: Jazz, the uniquely American musical art form, was born in New Orleans in the early 20th century and nurtured on a lively diet of music from around the world--the blues of the American South, rhythms from Africa and the Caribbean, classical music from Europe and France, and more. It’s entirely fitting, then, that the Jazz Club of Sarasota--one of the most active jazz societies in the nation--will present “A World of Jazz” for its 38th Annual Sarasota Jazz Festival. The four-day event, from March 7-10, 2018, will feature 14 musicians from seven nations in four concerts, over a dozen locally based musicians for a Pub Crawl by Trolley, and the French art film Django. In addition, at one of the concerts the Club will present its highest honor, the Satchmo Award, to a musician for “unique and enduring contribution to the living history of jazz.” Festival activities will be presented in various Sarasota venues including Marriott’s new Art Ovation Hotel, downtown Sarasota night clubs and Burns Court Cinema. Live jazz will fill the lobby before each concert, and four special VIP receptions—for those who purchase VIP ticket packages--will add to the luster of this star-studded festival. “We’re pleased to recognize the global impact of jazz, and we’re especially honored that the celebrated Ken Peplowski, one of our audience favorites, is the festival’s music director,” said Peg Pluto, Jazz Club president. “We’re also delighted that our vice president, Ed Linehan, is managing director for the festival. Ken and Ed have both worked with our festivals before so we know we’re in good hands. “In keeping with our theme, Ken will present the world of jazz as interpreted by internationally respected musicians and fast-rising young stars from around the world,” Pluto said. “Many of them have never played together before, and they may never share the same stage again. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime event.” Acclaimed reedman Peplowski, based in New York, will both direct the international cadre and frequently join them on stage. “These accomplished performers will play the universal language of jazz, an American language that everyone now speaks,” he said. “They’ll draw on musical influences from their homeland countries—Brazil, Denmark, Israel, Italy, Japan, Sweden and the United States—to present the exciting sound of what jazz has become today.” Ken has designed a playbook of two sets for every concert, each with a different mix of performers. “We’ll present unique combinations of musicians for every set with a fresh sound for each segment,” he said. He’ll also add another treat: “After each concert, we’ll bring back all of the evening’s musicians for an All-Star jam session number or two—an improvised finale that takes us right into the very essence of jazz.” Peplowski has been highly praised and frequently honored. “Ken Peplowski is arguably the greatest living jazz clarinetist,” said Russell Davies of BBC2. Will Friedwald (The Wall Street Journal) wrote, “Mr. Peplowski sounds the way (Benny) Goodman might if he had kept evolving … polishing his craft . . . into the 21st century.” Among other credits, Ken has been a featured performer at practically every significant jazz festival, was music director of the Oregon Festival of American Music for eight years, has backed dozens of major performers, and has recorded some 50 CDs as a soloist and nearly 500 more as a sideman. He has also been a frequent performer for the Jazz Club of Sarasota, often with Dick Hyman, and in 2014 received the Club’s highest honor, its Satchmo Award, for his “unique and enduring contribution to the living history of jazz.” (Other Jazz Club Satchmo winners since 1990 have included Duke Ellington, Lionel Hampton, Gerry Mulligan, Ella Fitzgerald, Dick Hyman, Branford Marsalis and Family, Four Freshmen, Bucky and John Pizzarelli, and Wycliffe Gordon.) In addition to Peplowski, several other musicians will make encore appearances with the Jazz Club of Sarasota. These include Houston Person,saxophone; Diego Figueiredo, guitar; and Jeff Hamilton, drums. The festival’s house band is the Scandinavian Jazztrio:

Writer/musician/composer Kristian Leth (Denmark), drums; a Danish Academy Award-nominated film composer and Grammy-winning recording artist who has written, performed and produced scores for TV series, films and commercials.

Hans Backenroth (Sweden), bass; acclaimed as “one of the best bass players Sweden has developed—ever!” (Arne Domnérus, Swedish jazz legend).

Ole Kock Hansen (Denmark), piano; “one of the most significant artists in modern Danish Jazz” (Wikipedia).

“Some of our festival musicians currently reside in the United States as well as abroad. We’ve hand-picked performers who beautifully understand and represent the musical influences they bring from their countries of origin,” Peplowski said. In addition to the Scandinavian Jazztrio, festival musicians (in alphabetical order) are:

Ehud Asherie, piano, Israel; “a master of swing and stride” (New Yorker); a jazz pianist who integrates the New York piano tradition with his inventive style.

Trump wants a $1 trillion investment in roads and bridges. Will more drilling help?

(CNN)President Donald Trump intends to fix crumbling roads and bridges, in part, with a plan that hearkens back to Sarah Palin’s slogan: “Drill, baby, drill.”

“We must take advantage of the estimated $50 trillion in untapped shale, oil, and natural gas reserves, especially those on federal lands that the American people own,” according to a statement on the White House website. “We will use the revenues from energy production to rebuild our roads, schools, bridges and public infrastructure.”

But the math from this plan doesn’t add up. The federal government made only $4.3 billion from oil and gas leases in fiscal year 2016, a fraction of what a massive infrastructure package might cost.

In Tuesday’s address to Congress, Trump proposed a $1 trillion injection that will replace the current infrastructure “with new roads, bridges, tunnels, airports and railways gleaming across our beautiful land.” But the president didn’t offer details, except to say it would be funded with both public and private capital. Drilling for more oil is one of the few concrete proposals already on the table.

Trump also expects to raise new revenue from opening more federal land to drilling. But as oil prices have plunged since 2014 to just above $50 per barrel, federal revenues from oil and gas leases have plummeted as well, according to data from the Office of Natural Resources Revenue.

Given the glut of oil and gas, companies haven’t always been lining up for new federal leases. Aland lease sale in Wyoming last month generated$129 million from 53 successful bidders, thesecond-largest onshore lease salein the past four years.But other lease sales have not been as successful. Last August, threecompanies bid on just 24 of the4,399 tracts of land offered up in the Gulf of Mexico. Six months earlier, another sale there failed to garner a single bid.

“The idea that you’re going to open up a bunch more areas and that’s going to somehow generate more revenue if anything, it would just depress prices further over the short- and medium-term,” said Sam Ori, executive director at the Energy Policy Institute at the University of Chicago.”You’re almost running in place.”

The federal government makes moneywhen a lease is sold, and it charges rent while companies are preparing to drill, but the biggest payoff comes from royalties when the oil starts flowing. Since oil prices slumped, royalty payments have “basically collapsed,” Ori said.

‘Regulatory stranglehold’

Still, Trump and his energy transition team are looking for ways to make federal lands more attractive to oil companies. The team is led by Thomas Pyle, president of a conservative think tank called the Institute of Energy Research and a former lobbyist for GOP billionaires Charles and David Koch.

The regulatoryhoops thatoil and gas companies must jump through on federal lands inhibit federal revenue, according toChris Warren, vice president of communications at the Institute of Energy Research.

“Companies are going to spend their resources wisely, right?” Warren said. “If it’s an easier process and a more affordable process for them to stay in private lands, then they’re going to want to do that.”

Source reveals EPA programs Trump’s budget could cut

The Trump administration also blames Obama-era regulations for choking off drilling on federal land.

“Energy production on federal lands, and thus economic activity, are at record lows for the modern era due in large part to the regulatory stranglehold of the past administration,” said Heather Swift, InteriorDepartment spokeswoman said in a statement to CNN. “By developing our energy resources, including those under federal ownership, in responsible and environmentally sensitive ways under reasonable regulation, trillions of dollars will pour back into the United States’ economy.”

Throughout its administration, President Barack Obama’s White House said its regulations were necessary as safeguards, especially after the 2010 Deepwater Horizon spill, and responsibly develop the environment with rules like one capping methane gas releases.

But there are other reasons companies may be more attracted to private land. During the Obama administration, new technology to access shale oilrevolutionized the industry. About half of US drilling is for shale oil, but 90%of US shale gas prospects are not on federal lands, according to a 2013 Center for Western Priorities report.

The share of federal-area oil production peaked in fiscal year 2010 at 36% of the total. By 2015, the share had fallen to 21%. Natural gas saw a similar decline, from 33% of the total in FY2006 to 16% in 2015.

The federal government could open more lands and certainly raise more money through oil and gas leasing, said Lucian Pugliaresi, president of the Energy Policy Research Foundation. “But that’s going to depend on expectations of oil prices, and which properties are put up for lease.”

Opening New Lands

The Trump administration could have the biggest impact by lifting drilling restrictions on protected federal land and waters. On land, opening the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR), a 19-million acre expanse of wilderness in northeast Alaska, has been hotly debated fordecades.ANWR potentially holds some of the largest untapped reserves of oil and gas on federal land. Trump wouldn’t be able to open it on his own; it would require an act of Congress, a move supported by Republicans in Congress and even some Democrats in the Alaskan legislature.

A 2012 CongressionalBudgetOffice report found that new revenue from ANWR would amount to $5 billion in the first 10 years, and between $25 billion and $50 billion in the decade after that depending on oil prices. (That’s due to the lengthy process of leasing,exploring, and drilling the area). Under current law, 90% of that would go to the state of Alaska, although Congress could change that split. Still, if the White House is looking to this source of revenue to fund massive infrastructure projects, it’s likely to fall well short.

US-owned waters might hold similar complications.Openingoffshore areas could be a contentious fight with some states.Policymakers in coastal states like Washington, Oregon and California could throw up significant legalhurdles for offshore leasingin some Pacific waters, especially if drilling could threaten tourism or their ecology, Ori said.

“It’s not very likely that in the next five to 10 years, that you would get through all the court battles, get all the infrastructure built, and start bringing stuff to market and make money,” he added.

And simply opening new lands alone may not be enough. In 2015, Obama opened parts of the Arctic Ocean for exploration, angering environmentalists. Shell spent billions to drill a single well there. But when that well came up empty, Shell cut its losses and pulled out of the Arctic after oil prices failed to rebound. The company blamed high costs and an “unpredictable” regulatory environment.

In December, Obama indefinitelybanned federal oil and gasleasingin large swaths of the Arctic Ocean and the Atlantic to protect the environment, citing the 1953 Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act.That action will be difficult for the new administration to change, since it wasn’t done with an executive action, like some of Obama’s other policies.

But the biggest obstacle to new drilling today may be the price of oil itself. Even if new lands are opened and regulations eased, that may not be enough to offset current market forces, Pugliaresi said.

“I do think there is some regulatory excess there that could use a systematic rethink,” Pugliaresi said.”Now, how much money can you get out of that?”

Sergio Hernandez contributed to this story.
