Festival Preview Jazz: Newport balances legends and newcomers
http://festivalpreviewjazz.blogspot.com/2008/05/newport-balances-legends-and-newcomers.html
Tuesday, May 6, 2008. Newport balances legends and newcomers. With all-time greats Sonny Rollins and Herbie Hancock as headliners, the 2008 Newport Jazz Festival (August 8-10, Newport RI) lays its usual claim to the history and tradition of jazz, but the program announced today places significant emphasis on modern directions in the music. The appearance by Sonny Rollins is notable since he has not appeared at Newport for many years. Other renowned players set for 2008 include Wayne Shorter, Dave Hol...

Festival Preview Jazz: 6/29/08 - 7/6/08
http://festivalpreviewjazz.blogspot.com/2008_06_29_archive.html
Thursday, July 3, 2008. In the arena at Monterey Jazz. You can have a great time at Monterey Jazz with just a grounds pass, seeing artists on at least five side stages. But you need an arena pass to see the festival's headline concerts. Ticket holders from previous years have first dibs on their last year's seats, or have a chance to move up. For the September 19-21 event. Keep in mind that arena passes are sold for the full festival only. No single session tickets are available. Posted by Dan Ruby.

Festival Preview Jazz: Pianomania at JVC New York
http://festivalpreviewjazz.blogspot.com/2008/07/pianomania-at-jvc-new-york.html
Wednesday, July 2, 2008. Pianomania at JVC New York. I didn’t plan it this way — and I have a feeling the festival people didn’t either — but my experience of the JVC Jazz Festival in New York this year has been remarkably piano-centric. Always using it in the service of his fertile imagination. There was, on the other hand, something decidedly unusual about the June 24 concert at the New York Society for Ethical Culture by Ethan Iverson’s band, the Bad Plus. I know, I know — the Bad Plus is a coll...

http://festivalpreviewjazz.blogspot.com/2008_04_20_archive.html
Wednesday, April 23, 2008. Continuity is theme at JVC Jazz NY. What to make of the recently announced JVC Jazz Festival New York schedule, the first under the aegis of Festival Network? It’s worth studying carefully, if only because, while George Wein clearly had a hand in planning this year’s festival, he also clearly won’t be around that much longer, and this lineup presumably offers some clues at to how Festival Network is going to be running things. On the positive side, there are some new venues (mo...
