Jazz Festival 2009 - Friday

The Austrian Cultural Forum NY, Jazz Standard, and Joe's Pub present Jazz Festival 2009, "The Diverse Dialects of Jazz", running from 10/12/09 to 10/16/09. We feature the best music and musicians of both the New York and Austrian jazz scene and the intermingling of the two diverse dialects of jazz.

The first set at Joe's Pub featured the USA debut performance of MoZuluArt, with Ramadu on percussion and vocals, Vusa Mkhaya Ndlovu and Blessings Nqo Nkomo singing, and Roland Guggenbichler on piano.

The second set at Joe's Pub featured Franz Hackl's Ido Quartet, with Franz Hackl himself on trumpet and flugelhorn, Adam Holzman on piano and keyboards, Lincoln Goines on bass, and Mino Cinelu on drums. Franz Hackl merges Tyrolean folk tunes, the musical dialect he grew up with, witht he music and sounds of New York, the city he has called home for 20 years. It's both very personal and open to influences from all over the world. Each band member has the artistic freedom to contribute equally to the same vision.

The final set at the Austrian Cultural Forum NY featured members from the previous evenings at Jazz Festival 2009, in an eclectic mix of musicians, with an equally eclectic mix of styles, which we call "The ACFNY Jazz Formation".
