Jazz – The Story
an exciting trip through the Jazz history
This amazing group is performing in an exciting, phantastic project, nobody did that before. We will give the audience the chance of a lifetime, absolutely beautiful show, where you can feel with your heart and hear the History of Jazzmusic from the start when the African slaves’ drumming and work songs that led to the Blues – the basic of all Jazz.
Jazz – The Story will be a 90-minute multimedia performance of live music, narration, and historic images. The Orchestra consisting of some of the top jazz musicians on the scene today will perform musical examples of each style. Great international star musicians are performing this show.
The band is guiding you through the history of jazz from Blues to Ragtime to Swing to Bebop to Cool. The 1950s and 60s were a particularly fertile time for jazz, with many genres emerging. There was Louis Armstrong, the most influential figures in Jazz, the Hard Bop of Miles Davis and Art Blakey; the Modal Jazz of Miles and John Coltrane; Soul Jazz, with many Hard Bop musicians adopting this style; and the Bossa Nova craze.
Latin Jazz and Free or Avant-Garde Jazz, pioneered by Ornette Coleman, also developed during this period. After delving into these earlier jazz movements, the program moves on to Fusion and Post-Bop, and finally, reflects on the many different styles of jazz being played today. The band is going with you through a long travel, giving you also the opportunity to understand the history of this amazing music which has doing many steps. 1917 was recorded in New York the first album with a band from New Orleans.

Italian Dreams
Sangoma Everett Trio & special guest Enrico Rava
"This hugely popular trumpet player almost single-handedly brought Italian jazz to international attention. He began playing Dixieland trombone in Turin, but after hearing Miles Davis http://www.allmusic.com/artist/miles-davis-mn0000423829 , switched instruments and embraced the modern style. Other key meetings were with Gato Barber http://www.allmusic.com/artist/gato-barbieri-mn0000191680 , with whom he recorded movie soundtracks in 1962, and Chet Baker http://www.allmusic.com/artist/chet-baker-mn0000094210
Line up:
Enrico Rava tp
Sangoma Everet drums
Bruno Ruder piano
Thibaud Soulas bass
Chico Freeman 3 Bass-tet Project
This project has been brewing in my creative psyche for many years but has remained unfulfilled until now. The idea of three (3) acoustic basses and saxophone (tenor, soprano and bass clarinet) is a unique concept of instrumentation that lends itself to an interesting reimagining of beautiful harmonies, enchanting melodies and magical rhythmic motion.
I reached out to three of the best and most original musicians I could find on their perspective instruments, each with a distinctive and personal voice of their own; Heiri Känzig, Christian Weber and Bänz Oester. Each of these extraordinary bassists speaks with a musical voice of heart, passion and precision in their creative expression. Together we combine to make these 4 instruments come together in a unity of purpose and musical expression that we hope speaks to our lives and to our listeners lives as well.
Reto Weber’s Squeezeband
All together this is wonderful curry made up of African-American, South American, and Mediterranean styles and employing typical Swiss instruments.
Reto Weber is one of the very few musicians, who is able to put together such world music projects together again and again in new ways and thus comes up with an enjoyable stir fry. “If one doesn’t have the necessary respect for other cultures than one should leave it”, he feels. And that he kept proving in his collaboration with Albert Mangelsdorff, which lasted for more than 30 years.
With three percussions the band has a strong, groovy foundation which provides the basis for an exciting interchange with the melodys from guitar and saxophone…

Miroslav Vitous
Duo, Trio or Remember Wheather Report
Vitous virtuoso jazz bass playing has led critics to place him in the same league as Scott LaFaro, Dave Holland, Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen and Arild Andersen. A representative example of Vitous double bass playing is Now He Sings, Now He Sobs (1968), with Chick Corea on piano and Roy Haynes on drums. This album shows his strong rhythmic sense, innovative walking lines, and intensity and abandon as an improviser. Music on a very high level!

Emil Viklicky Trio
An emotional depth rooted in Moravian folk music has led Emil to be called "the Janacek of Jazz". Dynamic and textural subtlety lie at the heart of Emil Viklicky´s greatness. /Chris Parker - The Times, London. Trio is affectingly lyrical when addressing their speciality material, Moravian folk songs. /Euan Dixon, Cheltenham. Emil Viklicky Trio has the same collective energy of Esbjorn Svensson trio, though without the electronics and rock input. /Jon Fordham, The Guardian, London

Chico Freeman’s Exotica
It is said that the Chicago saxophonist Chico Freeman could almost not be stopped once he took off on one of his avantagarde expressive flights. In the meantime he does not mind handing over his musical partner the leadership and sits down while the cellist Svante Henryson shines in large reverbing spaces with the melodic toppings similar to Eberhard Weber’s approach. Or when the percussionist and instrument maker Reto Weber hits the spheric, metallic sounding hang, his most successful invention so far, and get various matkas, water bowls and hand drums to vibrate
Two-time Grammy nominated saxophonist/composer Chico Freeman announces his new and highly anticipated project featuring some of the most accomplished musicians in the world.
Heralded as one of the most important saxophonists of our time, Chico Freeman has perfected an immediately recognizable approach to music and composition, blending what he has experienced from his past and providing fluidity into a future of infinite musical possibilities.
Svante Henryson is a unique musician. A virtuoso of three instruments, a composer of orchestral music, and an improviser fluent in all musical languages, he moves boundlessly across the entire musical spectrum.
As a cellist, performing in jazz, world music or rock, he makes the cello sound as if it always belonged there. Be it in a raga duo with Grammy-winning Indian guitarist Vishwa Mohan Bhatt, with a jazz big band, or in front of a symphony orchestra, the voice of his cello is instantly recognizable.
Reto Weber
Reto Weber, composer and percussionist Reto is a real master with a musical vision, sensitivity and humour. He moves about within a world of percussion, including traps, rows of cymbals, gongs, bells, steel drum and Senegalese balaphones. He found his exotic instruments on the festivals when he has performed in Tokyo, Hong Kong, Madras, La Paz, Qugadougoiu, Sidney, Abidjan, Hanoi, Jakarta, Bombay and many other festivals around the world

Like their name says – ‘It’s gonna be hot!’
Sakésho recorded two albums for Heads Up International – the self titled ‘Sakésho – It’s Gonna Be Hot,’ and ‘We Want You to Say,’ and has played concerts and festivals throughout the USA, Europe, and the Caribbean.

Tribute to Fela Kuti & his Shining Fearlessness
Nigeria, early 1970s: the country experienced a real oil boom; the military juntas succeed one another and the elite along with the multinationals share out the oil wealth while the miserable slums abound. In this atmosphere where the arbitrary judgements become the law, a charismatic musician, a rebel leader emerged: Fela Anikulapo Kuti.
In order to deliver his messages of justice and equality, he created an unusual combination of Afro-American funk jazz, of ju-ju music, high-life, Yoruba traditions and Nigerian vodun: Afrobeat was born. The modernity of its fusion of ancestral drums and electric soul continue to haunt the collective unconsciousness of Africa.
The metrics of Afrobeat mix with electro, pop or hip-hop, borrowing words from all the languages of the globe. Today, the American jazz drummer Sangoma Everett, fascinated by the aura, the integrity and creativity of Fela, decided to take a new look at the message and the music of Black President.

Sangoma Everett dm and bandleader
