Lots of jazz

So lots of jazz over the next few weeks in Sydney.

This week was treated when we were at Aaron Goldberg trio (who were awesome in their own right) by a guest spot by Dee Dee Bridgewater at the SIMA gig in Sydney. It was recorded by ABC jazz, so you will be able to hear it in all its glory once that is broadcast.



Also caught another great performance with Quinsin Nachoff accompanied by Peter Knight, Marc Hannaford and Rajiv Jayaweera.

They are also on tour so you can catch them around Australia.

worth catching

Caught the CD launch at Curiousworks for My Goodness McGuiness. You can hear it here

Also worth catching is Smoke & Mirrors, I think at the end of a tour in New Zealand. But a great mixture of acrobats, magic and music starring Ioda.

Tubular Bells for Two

We just opened the Melbourne season at the Arts Centre. It has been fantastic so far with sell out on the first two nights and standing ovation.

The final performances are next Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday and the show can only get better.

Its such a buzz of a show, definitely worth catching. Or if you are not in Melbourne visit our website and join our Melbourne list, so hopefully we can perform it in a place near you.

Been and gone

Well lots has been happening in the past month, seen lots of shows of all performance genres.

Launched the Cockatoo Calling project last Sunday on Cockatoo Island with Hinterlandt and Llew Kiek.

It was great to get a chance to talk to artists and hear the acoustics in the warehouse.

Also Little Marionette provided the most fantastic coffee. Ed is still building websites, but reviews talking about how wonderful they are, are plentiful on the internet. Here is one of them (review)

Martenitsa Choir and Mara

This was an uplifting experience. The 20^th Anniversary Concerts featured both Martenitsa and Mara!

They featured Bulgarian soloist Silvia Entcheva and the Mara! Ensemble. If you missed them they were recorded by ABC Radio National' for broadcast on Music Deli later in the year.

If you get a chance this will really be worth hearing.

Concrete Heartbeat

Felt a little bit like a rap poety piece of inner city life.
