SUMMARY:Behn Gillece "Parallel Universe"
DESCRIPTION:For his fourth album on Posi-Tone\, Downbeat Rising Star vibraphonist Behn Gillece investigates the parallax of perspectives created by the individual approaches of introversion and extroversion which comprise the “Parallel Universe.” With purposeful intention\, Gillece repeatedly shifts his musical focus back and forth between inward to outward perspectives. While doing this\, he moves straight forward through a series of original compositions that skillfully combine his high-powered harmonic approach with stunning displays of lyricism and create an engaging set of transformative tour de force performances. Gillece shines brightly throughout while clearly enjoying supportive companionship from saxophonist Stacy Dillard\, trumpeter Bruce Harris\, pianist Art Hirahara\, bassist David Wong\, and drummer Rudy Royston\, each of whom contribute uniquely bright moments to the proceedings. With an expressive program of musical offerings\, Behn Gillece’s “Parallel Universe” is a joyous journey which seeks to engage and entertain listeners while simultaneously transporting them into new realms of personal insight and sonorous delight. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				On Saturday\, March 30th\, The South Jersey Jazz Society presents Behn Gillece and his”Parallel Universe” album release performance at Josie Kelly’s from 7:30 – 9:00 p.m. \nJoining Behn will be Tim Brey – piano\, Madison Rast – bass and Bob Shomo – drums. \nAdmission is $15 and includes a copy of the new album.

SUMMARY:Jazz Legacy Series featuring Pete Chavez
DESCRIPTION:Come out on the 20th of January and learn among other things how Pete Chavez was very instrumental in starting the South Jersey Jazz Society and other items about a very interesting life of this wonderful jazz saxophonist. \n \nPete Chavez  was born in Greeley\, Colorado and raised in Denver\, Colorado where he studied clarinet with Dr. William Gower\, editor of the Rubank Method books.  In 1955\, at 13 years of age\, he moved to Los Angeles where he played oboe with the Highland Park Symphony Orchestra\, and the Los Angeles Junior Philharmonic Orchestra during his high school years.  His early jazz influences included trumpeter Little Benny Harris\, bassist George Morrow\, and tenor saxophone giant Lin Halliday. \nIn the 1960s he moved to New Orleans where he became a fixture on the local jazz scene jamming all night most nights.  Then he toured the east coast with the “Woody Forrest Revue” ending up in Miami and where he landed a gig at the Knight Beat Club as sideman to a roster of soul stars.  He toured with the legendary Jackie Wilson and Jackie “Moms” Mabley before moving back to Denver around 1969.  In Denver\, he worked with Cedar Walton and “Big” John Patton\, with whom he formed a lasting and close friendship. \nIn 1973\, Chavez moved to Boston where he played with the some of the Brazilian musicians on the scene\, including trumpeter Claudio Roditi\, Alyrio Lima (Weather Report)\, and Raoul DeSousa (Brazil ’66).  Pete earned a good measure of notoriety with his own bands which included James Williams\, Boots Maleson\, and John Scofield\, to name a few. \nHe then moved to New York City to work with Saheb Sarbib’s Multinational Big Band.  He recorded a CD with Sarbib featuring Kirk Litesy\, Rashied Ali and Joe Ford.  He worked and toured in Dom Um Romao’s “Hotmosphere”.  He recorded “Blue Planet Man” with John Patton\, Eddie Gladden\, Bill Saxton\, John Zorn\, and Ed Cherry.  While in New York City\, Chavez performed with Archie Shep\, John Hicks\, Jaco Pastorius\, Marcus Miller\, Cameron Brown\, Woody Shaw\, and Mike Stern\, among others. \nChavez currently lives in the Philadelphia area where he has performed with local legends\, Bootsie Barnes\, Mickey Roker\, Shirley Scott\, Norman Connors\, Byron Landham\, Tim Warfield\, Lee Smith\, Webb Thomas\, and many more. \nJanuary 20 at 11AM\nJosie Kelly’s\, 908 Shore Road Somers Point.   \nAdmission is free\, but free will donations will be gladly accepted. \nFor any questions\, email info@southjerseyjazz.org. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				The Legacy series is based on an interview /performance program we first encountered at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. Many of our Jazz Society members and music fans in general have a natural curiosity regarding the musicians who have entertained us through the years.\n\nWe rarely have an opportunity to interact and learn about our local musicians. This series will combine an interview with musical interludes and a chance to meet the artist\, and  ask a question or two.
