Jelly Review: Benny Golson with On Gossamer Wings, which is handled solely by pianist lara downes.On it, downes patiently draws out every nuance of its emotional melody on this http://www.jellyroll.com/2001/golson.html
Extractions: Tenor saxophonist Benny Golson has been writing and recording jazz music for four decades now, and his noteworthy new album only scratches the surface of "One Day" in a career that has seemed to last "Forever." Golson's horn work has always consistently produced beautifully warm tones, but the selling point of this latest release is Benny Golson, the composer. As with most players, a composer's instrumental work attracts the most attention to his or her skills, and this rule holds true for Golson. Over repeating piano chords, which blink on and off like an unattended left turn signal, "Killer Joe" swings with an unobtrusively hypnotic swagger. It's an oft covered underside-of-the-pillow cool tune, and rightfully so. Like the most of this album, it is performed by the Sextet, which is a modified version of Golson's late Fifties/early Sixties Jazztet and features Art Farmer on trumpet and Curtis Fuller on trombone. This performance is highlighted by Fuller's full-bodied and authoritative solo. Later, on "Blues Alley," Golson's Sextet pulls out all the stops and rocks hard (if that can even be said about a jazz tune) on this propulsive ensemble piece. But these examples represent only one side of Golson's compositional personality. The incomparable Shirley Horn sings two ballads here: the title cut and a post-breakup cry called "Sad To Say." Produced to the hilt with a full orchestra, these two songs are significant in that they showcase Golson, the lyricist.

Extractions: Piano music with video projection Bodies in Motion is a concert-length integrated multimedia piece performed by pianist Lara Downes combining performance and composition with the non-traditional canvas of projected imagery into an exploration of the audio/visual senses. The project explores the relationships between body, movement, sound, and technology, pairing works by three of the most creative and exciting young American composers on the contemporary scene: Kevin Puts ( Alternating Current ), Adam Silverman ( Motion in Bodies) and Laurie San Martin ( Free Fall ) with visual, virtual environments created live by artists glenda drew and Jesse Drew in collaboration with choreographer David Grenke. Bodies in Motion explores various qualities of movement through an infusion of imagery mixed live from both recorded/edited footage and interactive real-time footage of Downes' performance to illustrate the physical nature of the musical experience. Showcasing the voices of three distinctly individual composers with a range of influences from the classical canon to electronic rock, the piece reinterprets the concert-performance format, reflecting Downes' unique gift for breaking down barriers and opening up new musical vistas to audiences of all ages and backgrounds.

Korczak, a Polish Jew, was a medical doctor, Army officer, radio celebrity, and author who sacrificed himself to protect 200 children in a Jewish orphanage he founded amidst the chaos of the Nazi-occupied Warsaw Ghetto. Korczak lovingly maintained the orphanage as a refuge, providing a haven until the final moments when he and his orphans were suddenly expelled from the orphanage onto train cars transporting them to certain death at Treblinka.
