Almost mystical jazz from Portugal and a wide mix of strangeness from all parts
The cornerstone of today's program is a fascinating new album "O Carro de Fogo de Sei Miguel" from Portuguese trumpeter Sei Miguel leading an unusual orchestrated ensemble in a live studio recording. Besides Sei Miguel on trumpet, he is joined by Fala Mariam (alto) trombone, Nuno Torres (alto) saxophone, Bruno Silva guitar, Pedro Lourenço bass, André Gonçalves organs, Luìs Desirat and Raphael Soares on percussion. André Gonçalves is not performing on an actual organ, but manipulating samples or organ sound from a laptop and these organ sounds provide the unifying, mystical substrate to all the other instruments, which slowly build over 37 minutes to a grand immolation.
| We will begin with with a mix of guitars, unusual fusions, and other strangeness with a look at a couple of great shows still to play at the Ottawa Jazz Festival! |
| Paraisos Quemados Santanas feat. Buika - Africa Speaks - Concord

| Don't miss Mdou Moctar in Ottawa on July 26th! When's the last time we've had the opportunity to hear a Tuareg guitarist from Niger in Ottawa? hmmm, never?

"Strangeness" and "What the &%#@ was that?!" ... two of my favourite genres. ;^) Hiding from photons...
