Double Bill:
Rob Mazurek solo – Tribute to Bill Dixon (Chicago)
In a year of unique solo performances, cornetist Rob Mazurek’s stands out with this uniquely conceived tribute to trumpeter/composer Bill Dixon (1925-2010). Based in Chicago, Mazurek was last heard in Guelph with Pharoah and the Undergrounds featuring Pharoah Sanders. His solo endeavors reflect his interest in musique concrete and electronic sound manipulation, with his cornet playing augmented by computer programming, electronic effects and keyboards. Like Dixon himself, Mazurek’s brass playing provides a centre of gravity to the shifting soundscape around him, in a music he calls “projections of sound + vision using technology and non-technology to push the limits of universal love wave correspondence.”
Festival Improv Finale
Musicians will be appearing from here/hear, there and everywhere for this year’s Festival Improv Finale: San Francisco’s Myra Melford on piano, Ottawa percussionist Jesse Stewart, saxophonist Ernest Dawkin from Chicago, and Toronto tabla master Ravi Naimpally. What better way to start a Sunday—and close a great festival! Join these master musicians (and they have a lot of friends—who knows who might show up?) to close the 2016 Guelph Jazz Festival with a gala celebration of communities that create music—and music that creates communities!
