Potomac River Jazz Club Free Zoom Jazz Talk-
Monday Oct 7th 2024 7:00-8:15 pm Eastern
It is nearly impossible to speak of jazz pioneer Buddy Bolden without invoking, or evoking, myth and exaggeration. Bolden, an African-American cornetist in early twentieth century New Orleans, played a passionate, embryonic version of what would become known as jazz. He is remembered as a pioneer who combined instrumental dance music with blues and ragtime melodies played in a loud, rough manner that could be heard miles away. From all accounts, Bolden's music was powerful, stirring, and magical. Alas, there are no recordings to document his reputation. Join Grammy-nominated jazz historian David Sager, as he sheds light on Buddy Bolden's sound and style. Trombonist Sager, in his post at the Library of Congress helped develop the National Juke Box, a collection of historical musical recordings. The Bolden event takes place via Zoom at 7pm (EASTERN) on Monday, October 7. It’s a free event but donations are encouraged to help the Potomac River Jazz Club, which produces it, defray costs. Please make those donations at the same time as when you register. Must&nbsp;Register no later than 5pm the night of&nbsp;at: <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/955874364957?aff=oddtdtcreator" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.eventbrite.com/e/955874364957</a>

PRJC Free Jazz Talk: Legendary Cornetist Buddy Bolden

Miss Maybell in her authentic period garb – backed by Charlie Judkins on piano – breathes new life into the music of the 1920-30’s. Based in NYC, Maybell and Charlie dug into their steamer trunk for fresh old timey material probably never heard by a PRJC audience. Smile at the experience as they entertain, backed by the New Age Jazz Artistes. What a refreshing combination!
 Charlie is on piano and Lauren (Miss Maybell) is on banjo, vocals, washboard, and kazoo. They'll be backed by bass man - Brian Nalepka, Trombone - David Sager, and Reeds - Anita Thomas
