November Catch-up: Daily News

Nov. 17 saw me take over the DN's jazz beat, so each Friday will have a pick and listings for the week's shows.

Nov. 17: A short piece on Blue Note pianist Robert Glasper and his trio, along with a Pick (actually, a repurposed listing, since my Pick on Glasper went on too long) and listings for McCoy Tyner and Jimmy Bruno. The listings don't seem to be archived - at least, I can't find 'em.

Nov. 24: A Pick on the reunited Microscopic Septet and listings for Louis Hayes, Roy Ayers, Catherine Russell, and Dr. Guy's MusiQology.

Nov. 27: A feature on pianist Dave Burrell's new commission based on the Rosenbach Museum's exhibit "Look Again: African-American History IS American History." Wherein my name is spelled wrong. Ah well, the paper's on the verge of a strike - suppose they're a tad distracted.

Nov. 28: A feature on the Yule Ball, five Harry Potter-related bands celebrating Christmas and wizardry at the Starlight Ballroom.

Dec. 1: A story on Sonny Rollins prior to his stamina-testing show at the Kimmel, a Pick for Tin Hat clarinetist Ben Goldberg, and listings for Dave Burrell, Henry Butler & Corey Harris, Arpeggio Jazz Ensemble, Matt Wilson Quartet, Will Downing, and Butch Ballard.
