Mike Price Jazz Orchestra
MILES AHEAD
This “Jazz Masterpiece” is the first collaborative work of legendary
jazz trumpeter, MILES DAVIS, and GIL EVANS, the composer and arranger
whose stylistic innovations elevated the art of jazz composition for large
ensembles. This 10 part suite is rarely performed, even in the United States,
because of its unusual instrumentation and the number of musicians required.
This rare performance opportunity is a way for me to express my gratitude
to the jazz fans in Japan who have loyally supported the jazz art form
for many years. I am hoping that you will continue by supporting new artists
and new music because that has always been the source and vitality of the
music! By performing this 1957 masterwork, we can be reminded that
at the time of its writing and original performance it was new in concept
and direction! Please accept this performance as a dedication to
new music and the continuing commitment of all jazz musicians to strengthening
the art form!

This is a first! We will feature an award-winning physicist as our featured soloist! That’s correct! Allen Hermann is not only an outstanding jazz trombonist who has recorded with the legendary trombonist, Carl Fontana, but when he is not playing trombone, he is busy inventing life-improving things like cardiac pacemaker batteries and winningawards for his work in physics! His work in renewable energy has been recognized world-wide in addition to his trombone abilities being recognized by the International Trombone Association! We must definitely expand our meaning of multi-talented when we are speaking of Allen Hermann! Please join us at “Jazz Spot J” and enjoy great jazz trombone playing!

World-wide bands will be performing to signify the importance of jazz as both an historical and living treasure.
It is with pride that we wish to add our voices to those celebrating the continuing legacy and innovative tradition which gives this American cultural heritage its perennial vitality.
That we are performing jazz in a land distant from its birth is only more evidence of the growing global appreciation of this unique, American art form.

ABOUT HARVEY THOMPSON http://www.harveythompson.net/
The Tokyo jazz community will be happy to once again have the opportunity
to hear a top class jazz vocalist, Mr. Harvey Thompson, a native of Detroit,
a city which is rich in jazz tradition and the birthplace of many famous
jazz personalities, Harvey
Thompson does the city honor with his contribution to the jazz legacy. He is a true "torch bearer of American
song" as expressed in the Detroit Metro Times about his vast repertoire of
ballads and jazz standards. His rich baritone voice inspired the Chicago
Tribune to add more compliments about the "stylistic breadth of the
repertoire and the sophistication of his performance." Thompson brings a wealth of experience and
professionalism to the stage, bringing the full persona of the male jazz vocalist
to the audience. The Tribune adds, "He sings with as much poetry as
virtuosity with an ability to communicate a song's elegance as well as an
innate sense of improvisation and swing."
Harvey Thompson was the recipient of the 1995 Detroit Music Award for Jazz Artist Meriting Wider Recognition. His first CD, "Jazz Is Anything You Want It To Be," received wide critical acclaim in America.
Harvey Thompson's feelings about the music can best be expressed in his own words, "I have been blessed to have been influenced, met, and even worked with a sampling of some of the world's best jazz talent in helping to strengthen my ongoing salute to some of the world's greatest composers and to the vocal tradition that makes jazz a powerful international musical force!"

Frank Sinatra's legacy will live on indefinitely thanks to the wonderful recorded music which we can listen to many times. However, there is one important aspect which will be missing, that is the excitement and immediacy of the live performance! Sinatra often described himself as a "saloon singer" in part because, as every performer knows, the sense of the audience in front of you can create a special inspiration! And, as every audience knows who is lucky enough to hear an inspired performance, there is a special "magic" that far transcends recorded music! The Mike Price Jazz Orchestra with Victor Savoy singing Sinatra's music will present to you "A Tribute To Frank Sinatra" featuring many of his greatest hits. Please come and share this magical moment, accompanied by full size 16 piece band, a "live performance of the Sinatra songbook!"
Victor Savoy, arriving in Tokyo from Toronto, Canada in 1988 has earned a prominent place in the Tokyo music scene. His pianistic and vocal talents have kept him busy on many projects ranging from directing and performing off-Broadway musicals, Cole Porter reviews, classical piano trios, to jazz piano and vocal sessions at notable Tokyo venues. This return engagement, (the initial "Tribute to Frank Sinatra" taking place in December, 2001) will again feature Victor in a role for which his full baritone voice is eminently suited.
To recreate a specific artist's music calls for more than a mere recital of the music and lyrics. This rings especially true for an artist of Sinatra's stature. So why do it when we have his recordings?
Simply, the answer is that the CD's cannot give you the ambience! .......the full band on stage! .......the interaction with you, the audience!........ The full sound of the lyrics sung above the band!........The excitement of it all!
There's nothing else like being there when it happens, as it happens!
Please join us on December 18 or 19!

RICHIE COLE
A Personal Introduction
My association with Richie Cole, both as a friend and colleague, goes back to our student days at Berklee School of Music followed by our time on the road in Buddy Rich's band.
Richie always has been the consummate musician and I have been fortunate to observe his growth to the accomplished artist he is today.
There was one very special period to which I wish to call your attention. During the years following the big bands, beginning with his work with Eddie Jefferson, continuing with his solitary traveling throughout North America, Richie was building his soloist career literally from the ground up! I believe that this important link of time, before his recognition as a world-class jazz musician, was the crucible in which his music was truly born. This phase, appearing to be the wandering jazz minstrel, simultaneously puzzled, amazed, and was admired by his musician contemporaries who were playing with established bands or pursuing studio work in the big cities! In retrospect, he appears to have stepped out of the pages of Jack Kerouac! The following decades have also blossomed, with his music now reaching audiences worldwide.
More On Richie Cole
Richie Cole was born in Trenton, New Jersey on February 29, 1948 . He first became serious about the saxophone at the age of 10 and played in many different bands and orchestras throughout his school years. In 1966 he won a full scholarship from Downbeat magazine to the Berklee School of Music in Boston, Massachusetts. In1969 , he joined the Buddy Rich Big Band until 1971 when he went with the Lionel Hampton Big Band and the Doc Severinsen Big Band. Richie teamed up with the great Eddie Jefferson , the father of vocalize in1975 and they worked together until Eddie’s untimely death in 1979.
After that, he hit the road, traveling and living in his custom van, developing his "Alto Madness・ concept throughout the country for the next ten years before settling in San Francisco at "Alto Acres,"located in the Russian River area north of San Francisco . It was a great place to put the pieces of his many years of traveling and research together.
From here, he traveled extensively around the world, working in Australia, Japan, Africa, Finland, Russia, and throughout Europe. Richie was on the board for the National Endowment for the Arts Organization in Washington D.C. serving as the chairman of the board for one year. He was also a charter member and served on the board of the National Jazz Service Organization , also in Washington D.C. Richie Cole has recorded some fifty albums and CD's on his own, and along With the Manhattan Transfer, Bobby Enriquez , Freddy Hubbard , Sonny Stitt, Eddie Jefferson, Art Pepper, Ben Sidran, Tom Waits, Phil Woods, Boots Randolph, Bobby McFerrin, Nancy Wilson, James Moody, Ray Mantilla, Red Rodney, and Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis, just to name a few.
In the early 90's Richie headed to the Midwest, living in Milwaukee, Chicago, and Rockford, Illinois before traveling to the Florida Keys , where he lived on his yacht in Key Largo. During this time he developed his unique new concept , the Alto Madness Orchestra. The idea of the Alto Madness Orchestra is the concept and sound of an eighteen-piece big band using only seven instruments. ( four horns) Not only does this have the big band ensemble sound, but allows plenty of room for improvisation as in a quartet setting. Richie does all the composing and arranging and, as of this date, he has over four thousand arrangements. His band has been travelling and performing at jazz festivals, clubs, and schools worldwide for the last eight years.
Richie also writes for full big bands and symphony orchestras. The Alto Madness Orchestra course, (using Richieｴｾs original material), is entering its fourth year at the University of Madrid, Spain. Richie has also organized the Alto Madness Junior Orchestra, working with children ten to sixteen years of age. They learn to perform music especially written for their capability .
Richie Cole also continues to perform with his quartet and is very active in Jazz education, doing clinics and guest performances in schools and universities world wide. He is a long time member of the International Association of Jazz Educators where he performed with his Alto Madness Orchestra at the annual convention in Long Beach, California in 2002. During his most recent tour of Tomsk, Siberia, he premiered his new jazz suite, "A Night in Siberia." It was performed by the Red Army Big Band. Richie Cole is now looking forward to the second half of his career
