Friday night at Andy’s Jazz Club in Chicago, trumpeter Thomas Marriott and his band (featuring Jeff Johnson and John Bishop) joined with Chicago guitarist John McLean for a great night of music as part of the Origin Records Chicago Jazz Summit. The concert was a great example of the ongoing relationship with Chicago and Seattle artists, fostered by the Origin Records connection, and the standing-room-only crowd loved it. Tonight Matt Jorgensen will perform with guitarist Corey Christiansen, to celebrate the release of their new record “Roll With It.” The concert will also feature Chicago-based organist Pete Benson, and tenor saxophonist Scott Burns.

Be sure to check the Origin Records website for event updates, including podcasts, photo galleries and videos.

The Seasons Fall Music Festival, a weeklong celebration of classical, jazz and latin music will debut with a concert by saxophonist Eric Alexander and his New York-based Quartet on Friday, October 10 at 7:30 PM. This will be the first of nine straight evening concerts that make up the third Seasons Fall Festival. Stars to be included include: The Finisterra Trio, Bill Mays, Ernestine Anderson, Jovino Santos Neto, Jerry Gonzalez and the Fort Apache Band, and Tierney Sutton.

Pat Strosahl, President of the Seasons Music Festival (the non-profit organization that programs the festival), says, “This is by far the most important festival we’ve staged in our three years of operation. It has internationally recognized performers every single night, an astounding educational component, and the sense of collaboration and intermingling of musical ideas that characterize the best festivals worldwide.”

Strosahl says the each night will be an event in its own right which will include dinner/appetizers, winemaker-of-the-day, and often an “Afterglow” gathering for artists, donors and interested others.

Special events include a Red Carpet Opening Night Celebration, a Birthday Party with surprises (Monday, Oct 13 is the exact third anniversary of the first performance at The Seasons), and Latin Jazz night (Friday, Oct 17) to be opened by the YVCC Jazz Band!

The Festival includes two specially commissioned works:
“Cradle Song: A Love Story in One Scene” A Chamber Opera composed by international opera composer Daron Hagen to be debuted Sunday, October 12 at 4 PM and “Ravel’s Mother Goose Suite” arranged by Bill Mays for combined classical and jazz ensembles to be performed on Tuesday, October 14 at 7:00 PM.

The education component of the festival will reach middle and high school students from around the valley, tribal students, college students from YVCC and CWU, the general public, and a selected group of the best post graduate composition students from around the nation, who will seminar for an entire week with Composer-in-Residence Daron Hagen. The Yakima Symphony and The Finisterra Trio (Artists-in-Residence) will read and perform selected student works at various times during the festival.

This Happy Hour offers just such an environment for people from these industries to socialize, network, and build a unified community.

These Happy Hour events are held on the last Wednesday of every month from 5 to 7pm, and are hosted at Sole Repair, located at 1001 East Pike Street on Capitol Hill (near the corner of 10th and Pike). Must be at least 21 or older to attend. We hope to see you there!

from Brian Nova:

First, a BIG Thank you to all of you for a VERY Successful night for Buddy Catlett! With your help, we were able to raise $21,000 for Buddy! Buddy went in to U of W Hospital on Monday and had a very successful Heart Valve replacement surgery. The Doctors said he did great, and should be heading home on Thursday. The doctors also say that he might be up playing his bass by the end of the year! This is miraculous news as the doctors previously gave him 9 months. Your help, love and prayers have made all the difference. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
