More Piano Jazz

As a personal aside, work at a garden center in late spring gets very hectic. In most of my working career I've been lugging and toting stuff. I am old now and getting tired. It's not just the heavy stuff, it's trying to keep the plants alive and to keep the shelves stocked. Phew, thank goodness for days off!

I love listening to music. But I am quite ignorant about music. But it's fascinating how songs cross myriad human-made boundaries. That quality of music point to music as a collaborative activity. Even  solo musicians hope to connect with people who will listen. Brian Eno coined the word scenius, a word to speak about the collective genius necessary for the creation of art.

My last days off I stumbled upon  a bunch of contemporary piano Jazz trios. I was impressed by the durability of the form and posted links to older trio performances as well as younger ones. Only after posting the links did I notice that there were no women in the group.

Resolving to look for women in Jazz trios there's an issue:  the way this are structured make it harder for women than men in the business of music. Not knowing any contemporary piano Jazz trios, it made sense to look for women in the era when Jazz was more popular.

I hadn't heard of Toshiko Akiyoshi before. Here's a 1956 performances by Toshiko Akiyoshi Trio, Paul Chanbers on bass and Ed Thigpen on drums, of It Could Happen to You, recorded in 1956. Wow! Talk about crossing borders.

Akiyoshi's WW II era connection to Jazz made me think of Marian McPartland. Marian McParland's NPR program started in 1978. She had a radio program at Pacifica Radio with a similar format beginning in 1964.Marian McPartland recorded programs for NPR's Piano Jazz through 2010. Here's the Marian McPartland Trio, Vinne Burke on bass and Joe Morello, on drums on the A-Side of their 'big ten inch'Jazz At The Hickory House in 1953.

McParland's first guest on NPR's Piano Jazz was Mary Lou Williams. Williams grew up in East Liberty, a neighborhood of in Pittsburgh. She's a local legend. A natural for McPartland's first piano Jazz because both women were teachers and promoters of women in the arts. Here is the Mary Lou Williams Trio, Buster Williams on bass and Mickey Rocker on drums, in a 1987 recording of Ode to Saint Cecilie.

A friend in the early 1990s turned me on to Shirley Horn in the 1990s. Horn's  singing and piano performances are truly singular. Watching Youtube videos of performances I appreciated in a way I'd not before the tight collaboration between Shirley Horn with bassist Charles Ables and drummer Steve Williams. This 1999 performance in Sao Paulo of Jobim's How Insensitive took my breath. The videos from the Heineken Concerts 99 are wonderful. I had not heard her trio play Brazilian music before.

One of the boundaries piano Jazz trios cross over are generational. A lot has to do with how important  transmission of the music has been to so many Jazz players. A contemporary coda, here is the Savannah Harris Trio, Savannah Harris on drums, Eliot Seppa on bass and Colin Chambers on piano at the 21st Annual Mary Lou Williams Jazz Festival (2016) at Lincoln Center.

TGF 01x07 Not So Grand Jury

[milosshows]

One of the best shows I’ve ever seen

[rustandruin]

I would watch eight straight hours of Justin Bartha and Cush Jumbo just gazing into each other’s eyes, so jot that down.

[queer-is-the-universe]

That’s right, Your Honor. The AUSA is trying to use what he knows about my situation I.e. knocking me up. To his advantage.

[captain-noir]

i haven’t given lucca and colin as a couple much thought - they were just so THERE- but last episode hooked me

colin having a Lucca Quinn ringtone #mood

colin stopping mid-coitus to talk to lucca. who does that??

the awkward pregnancy reveal and how much he cared (pleasantly surprised)

the disastrous proposal, him on his knees and lucca, self-possessed ultra rational lucca shutting him down and walking away.

this dynamic of theirs is so hilarious i’m going to enjoy it so much. 

they are going to be such amazing parents.

Thankfully, all episodes of The Good Wife are on Netflix right now and the viewing public can just refer to the show anytime. (If you’re wondering if the show still holds up after all this time. Yes it does. Its still one of the few shows that make me laugh....and I often am thankful that shows like this exist....that you can have Matthew Perry play a character who you just want to shove until he gets off screen....thankfully that is balanced with characters who are great sparring partners.)

Here I thought after seeing these ads, that was it! But SBS still wanted to take it further....and I really hope people do get into The Good Fight because of these ads. Even if it’s the kind of show that no trailer would do justice....I am okay with this one.

For those who couldn’t get SBS this is how the ad went: scenes intercut with the headings: Secrets/Power/Lies. I was hoping that SBS put it up on their YouTube Channel...but....it’s not there. There is a clap snippet though.

Then we get the fast cut towards the end, with the last frame on Lucca.

Somehow this Season (or maybe the series), is about forgiveness. Maia forgiving her dad, Diane forgiving Kurt....

Odd thing while on IMDB, Christine Baranski has been on 20 episodes? But no other character has? (I guess we know there’s a Baranski fan out there editing IMDB pages hahaha)

And surprise surprise! Alicia’s name is mentioned! I had the impression that they would not refer to the character (still waiting for an Eli reference!).

What a masterpiece of a show. I really thought that it won’t live up to my expectation!
