News, plus Sunday offers LOTS more than pigskin hoopla ~ Feb 2, 2014


.
It's Sunday-Sunday-SUNDAY, and the not just ANY Sunday -- though in football, it is the ultimate invocation of the sport's favorite phrase, "On any given Sunday..."

Of course, the dot-dot-dot is meant to represent the idea that, predictions, odds-makers, computer-models, office-pools, and pontificators aside, anything can happen.

We are certain one thing will happen: corporate America will spend millions on over-hyped commercials that air during the

"Superb
Owl" game,

as Stephen Colbert calls it.

Now, on to all those who don't give a hoot about the Superb Owl.

We have news and reviews and events for you.
It's an overcast day in Southern California, where it’s NOT FROZEN, and there tempting music (and some theatre) performances today and tonight.

We’ve got news, reviews, and a plenty of live music options, all awaiting you in today’s edition.

Oh, and if you need to catch-up with our many recent News Features, including our extensive coverage of the NAMM Show, just click the"January" tab in the sidebar at left. (Things auto-archive each month.) Don't see a sidebar? Scroll down a short way, and click "View web edition" and you'll have it right there.

√  YOU CAN VOTE IN THE 2014 "TEXAS MUSIC AWARDS"

More than anyplace else, major parts of what gas become Americana music has its roots in the Lone Star State. Hence, awards for music that originates in, OR, is influenced by, Texas, are especially appropriate. And you can help pick the winners, for FREE.

The voting began February 1 and ENDS at 11:59 pm on Sunday, February 9th, so you still have time to listen to the nominees' music and vote for your favorites.

Awards will go to winners March 22nd at a gala night in the Music Barn at the Academy of Texas Music in Linden, Texas.

There are numerous categories for individual artists and groups AND for best record producer, and even for radio.

A few artists appear more than once. For example, BOB CHEEVERS is nominated for both “Singer-Songwriter of the Year” and “Album of the Year,” and he's told us he's thrilled about both.

The award categories are: Male and Female Vocalist of the Year, Duo of the Year, Vocal Group of the Year, the Rising Star Award, Musician of the Year, Live Band of the Year, Song of the Year, Singer-Songwriter of the Year, Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Producer of the Year, Broadcast Radio Station of the Year, Disc Jockey of the Year, Entertainer of the Year, and the Popular Cover Award.

To explore the categories and nominees, and VOTE, go to:

www.texasmusicawards.org

Careful. To keep things FREE, click on the big red "VOTE HERE." That will take you to a page giving you two options.

You can keep it simple and click "CHOICE ONE" to immediately get a ballot. Or click "CHOICE TWO" to get a page with bios and song clips for each nominee.

The site also has options for artists and for fans to join the awards' sponsoring organization -- necessary to be nominated for next year. It's a 501(c)3 nonprofit. But the public can vote, FREE, by following the process described here.

Look over the possibilities. You'll surely discover someone whose music you haven't yet heard -- and will instantly like -- and that's really the point with voter-determined awards like this. But don't dawdle. The end of voting on the 9th will be here before you know it.

√  MONEY FOR ARTISTS CAN COME FROM UNLIKELY PLACES

We would never have thought to look for a crossroads of chamber music and jazz. Turns out there is one, and there's grant money there.

Chamber Music America is offering not only "Classical and Contemporary Grants," but also new "Jazz Works Grants," a "Commissioning and Ensemble Development program" that offers support to professional US jazz ensembles to create, perform, and if desired, record new works. This year’s guidelines and application are available now, at:

http://www.chamber-music.org/programs/jazz/grants#l731

Elements of the program and application process have changed from previous years. The application deadline is March 7, 2014.

To be eligible, an ensemble must be based in the US, consist of 2-10 members, include improvisation as an integral part of its composition and performance, and be a current CMA organizational-level member. Applications are reviewed by an independent panel of jazz musicians.

The New Jazz Works Program is funded by the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation and is a component of the Doris Duke Jazz Ensembles Project. The link above offers complete information, including past grantees, panelists, and CMA grant workshop schedules.

If you have questions or want complete info, contact Jeanette Vuocolo, CMA’s program director for jazz, at Jvuocolo@chamber-music.org.

The Pasadena Symphony and POPS have a long history of spotlighting new and upcoming musicians. As sponsors of today’s event, they tell us, “We are proud to share the talents of violinist Geneva Lewis, 15-year-old student of Aimee Kreston, Concertmaster of the Pasadena Symphony.”

+
In preparation for this milestone event, the Pasadena Symphony invites you to attend this free performance today, as Geneva presents the Menuhin Competition's repertoire.

+
Venue impresario Bob Stane says, “Be a flapper for the night. Pretend you are drinking cheap hooch that will shock your liver. So much better than watching outsized guys getting concussions.”
+
Count on this outfit of inspired entertainers to give quality performances of 1920 and 30s and earlier music with merriment and historical illuminations.
+
The enchanting and effervescent chanteuse Janet Klein with her four-member band The Parlor Boys entertain in a lively “Speakeasy Jazz Revue” style. This dapper, multi-talented troop will perform scintillating early hot jazz tunes from the 1920's and 30's with authentic expert grace. Between songs, the band will pepper the entertainment with musical and local historical folklore tidbits. Janet & Her Parlor Boys are all about sharing their loved historical discoveries and not just playing to nostalgia and quaintness. They have treasures to share with their music and discoveries. Today Janet is the most refreshing anachronism to ever materialize from the ether of the Prohibition. Klein is a channel to a definitive time in American music when bob hairdos were the rage and batting-eyes meant you had a live one on your hands. Thing is, LA-based Janet Klein and Her Parlor Boys are not nostalgic shtick. She doesn't merely perform songs from “lost America” -- obscure numbers circa 1900s-1930s, including barrelhouse jazz, foxtrots, chansonettes, Tin Pan Alley, ragtime ditties and vaudeville from the Great Depression-she actually lives them, and transports her audiences along the way. Janet considers herself an “archeologist” for digging up buried treasures by the likes of Wilton Crawley and A.P. Randolf, Robert Cloud, Ruth Etting, Lil Armstrong, Mae West, Annette Hanshaw, Fannie Brice, Josephine Baker and so forth.
+
In addition to the charming and alarming Ms. Klein, the band features a dapper all-star line-up: John Reynolds on banjo and guitar, Corey Gemme on cornet, trombone, saxophone, clarinet & percussion, Randy Woltz on vibraphone, Ian Whitcomb on vocals & accordion, and Marquis Howell on standup bass.

Tix, $20. Call for reservations, 626-798-6236 (10 am-10 pm, 7 days). Always sells-out, so hurry.

This is L.A.’s last real honky tonk. No cover, full bar, lots of fun. Go early for the nightly free dance lesson.

Sun, Feb 2; Fri-Sun, Jan 31-Feb 2, in downtown L.A.:
8 pm  ROYAL NEW ZEALAND BALLET presents the final performance of the North American premiere of “GISELLE” at the Music Center, 135 N Grand Av, Los Angeles 90012.
+
“GISELLE” brings ballet superstars Gillian Murphy and Qi Huan in a critically-acclaimed production, the Royal New Zealand Ballet’s dynamic dancers bring you a “creative and glorious” revisiting of the ballet first performed in Paris in 1841.
+
One of the oldest surviving most dramatic and beautiful of all ballets, Giselle brings prima ballerina Gillian Murphy in the title role of a peasant girl in Germany during the Middle Ages who lives for dance despite frail health. Giselle’s heart is broken by a prince (Qi Huan), but her undiminished love saves the man from supernatural forces. "Giselle" harnesses the power of forgiveness and redemption to vanquish the anguish of love and betrayal. The North American premiere features ballet superstars Gillian Murphy and Qi Huan. In Los Angeles for four performances only
