Did anyone in the Chicago area attend the MCA concert this Sunday? It was
a double bill of the Sainkho Namtchylak (sp?) Trio preceded by The White
Hole. The White Hole is a new music piece composed by Dafeldecker and
Kurzmann, and it featured Kurzmann on computer processing, Sainkho
Namtchylak on voice, and Stangl, Coleman, Dafeldecker, Jeb Bishop?, and
Moser on guitars. I don't really know how to describe the piece -- it
sounded like the last two pieces on Stangl's "Recital" multiplied by 5
with Namtchylak adding soft, beautiful sounds every now and then. The
audience hated it. Many walked out, talked to their neighbors, and
laughed contemptuously.
I was very disappointed with Sainkho's set afterwards. It consisted of
her singing over hip-hop beats and traditional instruments. Nothing
incredibly exciting. I was reminded a little of Sola's "Blues in the
East," which is much more successful in mixing different styles.
Plus/Minus and Marilyn Crispell will be performing Oct. 1, I think at the
Hothouse. Also Tim Berne is giving a free show at the Cultural Center on
the 3rd.

Subject: "Gregory" Cohen?
Anyone know if bassist Gregory Cohen on Randy Newman's latest (Bad Love) is
the same one we all know? Newman uses good people on this disc (like Oscar
Brashear and numerous other jazz people), and since he credits Marty Krystall
as Martin Krystall, listing Gregory instead of Greg wouldn't surprise me.
Also, he thanks Greg (not Gregory) Cohen in the 'special thanks to' section
of the credits. Since I just removed the shrinkwrap and am playing something
else already (Bela Fleck's recent 'Bluegrass Sessions' CD, which is
exceptional, BTW), I can't yet report on how G. Cohen sounds.

Tom et. al.:
According to the August 1999 Matchless Catalogue, which I got from
Eddie Prevost at the Guelph Jazz Festival last month, John Tilbury has
recorded a limited edition 4-CD box set of
the piano music of Morton Feldman 1950 - 1986, called Morton Feldman -
All Piano.
If this is what you're loking for it seemns to be on LondonHall do 13,
not hatNow.
A note at the bottom of the page says : "this four CD set is not likely
to be available until October 1999".
Oh, and Prevost played great that weekend, both solo and in a workshop with
four other percussionists.

after doing a bit of web searching on Tilbury and Feldman, I came across what
seems to be a fairly new, well put together, UK-based Feldman site at:
http://www.cnvill.demon.co.uk/mfhome.htm
clicking on forthcoming recordings leads you to details on the Tilbury set,
in addition to a bunch of other upcoming projects.
ok, off to see Polwechsel again.

Do you have any other info about the Tim Berne show (time, specifically)
I hate shows at the Cultural Center, cause they never promote them. I
consider myself to be very "up" on shows goin on in Chicago, and this is
the first I've heard of a Berne show.....

I just got back from the Sainkho gig at the Knit and
agree with what you have to say here. It started off
with three duets with Ned Rothenberg, which were
great, but then continued with her band doing the new
age world pop stuff. I'm a pretty big Sainkho fan and
am really impressed with her determination to explore
new musical territory in the face of her native
tradition, but her pop projects are a little much for
me.
Still, I think she is an incredibly strong and
powerful human being and was pretty moved by just her
presence on stage.

Then it's worth mentioning that Frisell is scheduled to play Yoshi's in
Oakland on (I believe) November 9th. One day after my birthday and one year
after Masada played the SF Jazz Festival. I think perhaps I should not miss
this show; it was hard enough missing the Baron/Ribot/Medeski gig.
Any other Zornlisters going to the Faust show in San Francisco on Oct. 26th?
