SUMMARY:Fridays with Frank
DESCRIPTION:Join renowned jazz historian and Jazz Haven Board member Frank Cochran for BYOB “Fridays with Frank.”  Happy Hour jazz listening sessions are held every Friday from 5:15 to 7:00 pm at the Institute Library in downtown New Haven.  Each Friday Frank selects iconic jazz LPs to play from the Library’s extensive collection.  Discussion follows.  BYOB and please give a modest donation towards the IL’s spiraling utilities. A $5.00 contribution is welcome. \nThis Friday\, December 12th\, Frank will feature the music of Lee Konitz. Between the 1940s and his death at 92 in 2020\, Konitz played with most everyone\, and made records with most. From the 1949 Birth of the cool\, a long though intermittent association with Lennie Tristano\, gigs with Gerry Mulligan\, Jimmy Giuffre\, Harold Danko in the 1980s\, and Warne Marsh in the 90s\, he was constantly showing up on LPs\, always with an intellectually relaxed sound like no one else. Even when Elvin Jones was the drummer. We’ve got a bunch of his records; you will\, Frank believes\, be in for a treat because there will be at least one you’ve never heard.

SUMMARY:Yoko Miwa Trio
DESCRIPTION:Miwa performs with her trio featuring bassist Matt Stavrakas and drummer Scott Goulding. \nMiwa’s musicianship evokes the harmonic finesse and rhythmic brilliance of key influences like Bill Evans\, Keith Jarrett\, McCoy Tyner and Oscar Peterson. Her expansive\, versatile writing presents both a remarkable ear for melody and an earthy\, intuitive feel for groove. As a bandleader\, Miwa heads one of the finest jazz trios playing today. In his 4-star DownBeat review of Miwa’s 2019 release Keep Talkin’\, Carlo Wolff noted “the blend of intimacy and power this unusually gifted trio can muster.” \nInternationally acclaimed pianist/composer Yoko Miwa is one of the most powerful and compelling performers on the scene today. Her trio\, with its remarkable telepathy and infectious energy\, has brought audiences to their feet worldwide. Their 2021 release Songs of Joy received wide acclaim and reached #1 on national jazz radio charts. Jazziz called it “a radiant new collection.” Her 2019 CD\, Keep Talkin’\, showcases Miwa’s fine playing and artful compositions and the trio’s uncanny musical camaraderie. DownBeat gave the recording four stars\, calling it “a beautifully constructed album” and noting “the drive and lyricism of a pianist and composer at home in bebop\, gospel\, pop\, and classical.” For more than a decade Miwa’s trio has played regularly at major jazz clubs in their home city of Boston\, as well as venues around the world. A favorite of Jazz at Lincoln Center\, Miwa was chosen to play on “Marian McPartland & Friends\,” part of the Coca-Cola Generations in Jazz Festival. Miwa also appears regularly at New York’s famed Blue Note Jazz Club as well as Birdland and has performed and/or recorded with a wide range of jazz greats including Sheila Jordan\, Slide Hampton\, Arturo Sandoval\, George Garzone\, Jazzmeia Horn\, Jon Faddis\, Jerry Bergonzi\, esperanza spalding\, Terri Lyne Carrington\, Kevin Mahogany\, John Lockwood and Johnathan Blake\, among others.
