Lazaro Vega Posted October 4, 2006 Report Posted October 4, 2006 (edited) FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Italian Creative Jazz Musicians to Tour Midwest Acclaimed Italian creative jazz musicians Daniele Cavallanti and Tiziano Tononi will be embarking on a tour of the midwestern United States from October 18th – 31st. Tenor saxophonist Cavallanti and percussionist Tononi are longstanding members of the Italian Instabile Orchestra, a super-group of Italy’s finest improvisers. They also lead several projects of their own and play together as the duo Udu Calls. They have performed and recorded with several major innovators of creative jazz music including: Cecil Taylor, Dewey Redman, Andrew Cyrille, Roswell Rudd, William Parker, Muhal Richard Abrams, Walter Wierbos, Willem Breuker, Oliver Lake, Leroy Jenkins and many others. For this tour they will be teaming with the up-and-coming Chicago trio Ways & Means to form the quintet Chicago Udu Calls. The three members of Ways & Means are Dan Godston on trumpet, Jayve Montgomery on reeds and percussion, and Joel Wanek on upright bass. Although they are an ocean apart, these five musicians share a common affinity for American jazz, traditional African and Asian music, and European free improvisation. Together their music will embrace and employ instrumentation, melodies and rhythms from around the world as it creates its own identity. Each performance is sure to be a different journey than the next. Here are the main stops of their tour: Thursday, October 19 @ 10:00 pm Elastic Arts 2830 N. Milwaukee Ave., 2nd floor Chicago, IL www.elasticarts.org Saturday, October 21 @ 8:00 pm Mother Fools 1101 Williamson St. Madison, WI www.motherfools.com Sunday, October 22 @ 1:00 pm Madison Center for Creative & Cultural Arts 306 W Dayton St. Madison, WI www.mccca.net Sunday, October 22 @ 8:00 pm Circle-A Café 932 E Chambers St Milwaukee, WI www.myspace.com/circleacafe Thursday, October 26 @ 9:00 pm Velvet Lounge 67 E.

Van Basten II Posted October 5, 2006 Report Posted October 5, 2006 (edited) Too bad that they don't come near my home. I saw the Italian Instabile Orchestra once live at the Montreal jazz fest. And i gotta say it's once of the greatest gig i ever saw in my life. I have to say it was problably the greatest musical evening of my life since earlier the same evening i saw the debut of the Dave Holland Big Band. A mythical night i tell you.
