SUMMARY:Amilton Godoy ~ Piano & Léa Freire ~ Flute with Harvey Wainapel ~ Reeds  SOLD OUT!
DESCRIPTION:Brazilian Rhapsody From Sao Paulo Brazil – SOLD OUT! Email us to get on the cancellation list. The Fall Concert Series will be announced mid August. \nSiskiyou Music Project presents an evening of Brazilian music with pianist Amilton Godoy\, flautist Léa Freire and multi reeds player Harvey Wainapel on Saturday\, August 25 at the Old Siskiyou Barn. \nSão Paulo pianist/composer/arranger AMILTON GODOY founded the iconic Zimbo Trio atage 23. Combining the rhythms of samba and bossa nova with jazz\, this became one of the most influential Brazilian instrumental groups in the second half of the 20th Century\, making 51 recordings and playing in 40 countries over the years. In 1973 he founded the CLAM school of music in São Paulo (Centro Livre de Aprendizagem Musical)\, which has nurtured generations of Brazilian musicians to this day. At age 77\, Godoy is still playing with the energy and enthusiasm of a teenager (a very experienced one)! \nOne of the first students at CLAM was flutist/pianist/composer LÉA FREIRE\, also from São Paulo\, who began her studies there at age 16. Although Amilton was not one of Léa’s teachers there\, the two met when the Zimbo Trio held regular open rehearsals at the school. Over the following years\, Léa has evolved into a major force in creative Brazilian music\, as a performer\, composer\, and producer. In 2011 she invited Amilton to record a solo CD of her compositions\, an invitation he accepted with pleasure. When it came time to release the CD\, Amilton suggested forming a duo\, which went on to record a CD called “A Mil Tons” (2017)\, consisiting of Godoy’s compositions and arrangements. \nThis unique duo has toured throughout Brazil\, Argentina\, and the US\, combining the freedom of popular music and improvisation with the elegance of chamber music\, all performed with that great rhythmical\, lyrical\, and charming Brazilian “accent.” \nIn 2000\, Bay Area saxophonist/clarinetist HARVEY WAINAPEL\, who has toured internationally with Airto Moreira & Flora Purim\, Joe Lovano\, Ray Charles\, and Jovino Santos Neto\, visited Brazil for the first time. He spent two months there researching\, meeting great musicians\, performing and recording\, and has returned every year since then. On his very first night there\, he met Léa Freire\, and a deep friendship developed over the years. Although many informal musical encounters followed\, it was the Duo’s first visit to California in 2017 that resulted in this three-way collaboration\, with Bay Area performances followed by a two week tour of the Pacific Northwest.

SUMMARY:Thor Polson & The Ed Dunsavage Trio ~ SOLD OUT!
DESCRIPTION:Smokin’ at The Half Note\nA Tribute to Wes Montgomery & the Wynton Kelly Trio \nSOLD OUT! \nDue to popular demand we will reprise this performance on Friday\, June 8 at La Baguette Listening Room on A Street in Ashland. Seating is very limited and advance reservations are highly recommended. \nSMP presents a collaboration a long time in the making between pianist Thor Polson and the Ed Dunsavage Trio featuring Joe Cohoon on bass and Chicken Hirsh on drums. This presentation will be a tribute to guitar great Wes Montgomery and the Wynton Kelly Trio which featured Paul Chambers on bass and Jimmy Cobb on drums. They were also the rhythm section for the Miles Davis Quintet at the time. For this concert\, we will perform most of the music on the classic recording\, “Smokin’ at The Half Note which was recorded in 1965/66. Pat Metheny once said that he learned how to play guitar by listening to “Smokin’ at The Half Note. \n \nThor Polson has performed at dozens of Twin Cities venues\, and his recordings have been aired on radio stations there and more recently on traditional and internet stations such as Jefferson Public Radio\, KSKQ\, KRUU\, Jango Music\, and Pandora. His latest album “Northern Lights” received high praise from Jazz Police critic Andrea Canter. Thor gigs regularly in southern Oregon\, performing regularly with local jazz musicians and organizing tributes to such legendary jazz figures as Thelonious Monk\, Wayne Shorter\, and Herbie Hancock. Though a jazzer at heart\, Thor originally moved to southern Oregon for a three-year course of study in classical piano with Dr. Alexander Tutunov\, from whom he continues to take occasional lessons.
