Скачать или смотреть SKELETON IN THE CLOSET: SCHUMM, PEPLOWSKI, ROBINSON, BARRETT, DAPOGNY, ALDEN, FORBES, SMITH 9.15.17

A performance from the Cleveland Classic Jazz Party. I have gotten permission from the musicians who like to be asked. One for Louis, by a truly stellar combination: Andy Schumm, cornet; Dan Barrett, trombone; Ken, clarinet; Scott Robinson, tenor saxophone; James Dapogny, piano; Howard Alden, guitar; Joel Forbes, double bass; Hal Smith, drums. September 15, 2017.

There is the head of a nicely coiffed woman in the way, but this simulates the actual experience of being at a festival with a video camera, trying to be unobtrusive while getting the best shot. Had I sat in the first row, I would have been too close to the band to capture the entire vista. Critics can request a refund at the rear door. Listen for Ken, so tersely lyrical in his solos and so wisely empathic in his ensemble playing. Recorded and presented by Michael Steinman for JAZZ LIVES (http://www.jazzlives.wordpress.com) in honor of Ken, who left us on Monday, February 2, 2026.
