Daily Jazz Journal: The Late Shows: A Retrospective
http://medhatjazzjournal.blogspot.com/2011/06/saturday.html
Sunday, 26 June 2011. The Late Shows: A Retrospective. It’s time to tell you about the late shows—now that I have been to four in a row. Yes, that means getting home after midnight each time, and yes, I’m feeling it. But no regrets. It’s probably a good thing I don’t live in New York, where I could be doing this all the time. With the lobby furniture surrounding the musicians and tables further out, it was an incredibly lovely setting for listening to music. And then there was the music. Maybe I can ...

Daily Jazz Journal: Friday
http://medhatjazzjournal.blogspot.com/2011/06/friday.html
Saturday, 25 June 2011. By Friday morning I thought I had reached my saturation point. There had been so much good music, and I had been to two late shows in a row, and I just wasn’t sure what to do with anymore. Then I decided I simply wasn’t drinking enough coffee. One more song… Play us one more song! The Marc Atkinson Trio - Joey Smith on stand-up bass, Brett Maartens on acoustic rhythm guitar and Marc on lead guitar. Danish vocalist Sinne Eeg performing in the Esplanade theatre with her group: Nikol...

Daily Jazz Journal: Tuesday Afternoon
http://medhatjazzjournal.blogspot.com/2011/06/tuesday.html
Tuesday, 21 June 2011. When the Esplanade is bursting at the seams with some 650 children, you probably picture Bert and Ernie or Toopie and Binou taking the stage—not a world-class, 13-piece Latin jazz band. But today, over 1200 Medicine Hat children got to experience a variety of musical stylings from the Latin traditions, and this fact alone leaves me breathless with the possibilities, the expanded horizons these children just discovered. And away we went. They get a bigger world. They get a notio...

Daily Jazz Journal: A brief recap of Thursday:
http://medhatjazzjournal.blogspot.com/2011/06/thursday.html
Friday, 24 June 2011. A brief recap of Thursday:. My JazzFest day began by dropping in on the Alex Pangman workshop. She sang several pieces that she had performed in her Wednesday evening concert, which was wonderful. Whenever I leave a great concert, I am overcome with wanting. Which is why I tend to leave with a CD! And for ambience—there was no sacrifice. Medalta has created a one-of-a-kind space, and it really worked for this band, in my opinion. The dance floor was full the whole night. Late night ...

Daily Jazz Journal: Monday
http://medhatjazzjournal.blogspot.com/2011/06/monday.html
Tuesday, 21 June 2011. Those who were at Hal Miller’s presentation of rare video footage of the “greats” of jazz already know what a fascinating cross-section was presented. For those who weren’t, here’s a bit of a recap. Minus 15 minutes at the start and an unknown portion I missed at the end. No guilt, thanks to my festival pass! Only sorry for what I missed…). 8221; and then decide for ourselves whether we like him or not. And having made that high-minded point, I will return shamelessly to the like/d...

Daily Jazz Journal: Wednesday
http://medhatjazzjournal.blogspot.com/2011/06/wednesday.html
Thursday, 23 June 2011. Aytahn Ross, reviewed by Adam M., age 9, at Tuesday’s school show, and passed on to me by one of his teachers tonight:. 8220;This guy is impossible not to watch! Be sure to get to the parkade show early to see him perform (new tricks and old faves, I’m told) before the Battle of the Bands commences! Then Alex Pangman’s show with my daughter—such a fun, beautiful concert! Now, Alex Pangman’s show was. Melody — tunes and characters and tales of life and love, of being blue and...
