Visiting NYC in September (plus Chicago & SF)

[romualdo]

I'll be in NYC from Sept 13th to 24th & aim to do a number of the jazz venues

So far I've found (been very lucky IMHO - some great stuff & I've struck gold with Mary Halvorson - really wanted to see her) & will be booking in the next day or so

Barry Harris - Village Vanguard (19th-24th) - Wow!! - one of the masters

Jane Ira Bloom plus - The Stone (15th)

Mary Halvorson / Sylvie Courvoisier - The Owl (Brooklyn)(21st)

Tomas Fujiwara Double trio (includes Mary Halvorson) - The Jazz Gallery (22nd)

Lee Konitz & Dan Tepfer appear to be playing on Sept 15 (only one night) at the Jazz Gallery but I can't seem to be able to link to the tickets - maybe it's sold out? I've sent the JG an email

Coltrane Revisited (Eric Alexander, Jaleel Shaw, Steve Kuhn, Lonnie Plaxico, Steve Smith) - Birdland (19th-23rd)

Would have loved to see McCoy Tyner at the Blue Note but he's only playing on the 11th (one day only & two days before we get there)  bummer!!

I'm also going to drop in at the National Jazz Museum (Harlem) to have a peek/listen maybe at/to the Savory Collection

Any other recommendations would be greatly appreciated

I'm in town until the 23rd.  I will definitely be catching as much Barry Harris as I can.

If you have time, I recommend the Louis Armstrong House & Museum in Queens. It's way out there but worth the visit.

Thanks for the details & info re Niemack/Konitz at Kitanos

I've booked Kitanos (Sat 23) plus Harris (Vanguard), Coltrane Tribute (Birdland) - only Bloom, Halvorson & Fujiwara to sort out

Tim Berne & Snake Oil would have been a goer but he's only on for one night & that's when get into NYC (13th pm)
