Hi Steve,
Thank you for your kind words. I communicated them to the builder of the
Site Jacques Fleury (base) who already in 1952 obtained awards in Zurich. He
is also the "Manager" of the "Geneva-Jazz-Club-Basement-with-50 chairs"
operating Friday nights and named "Le Contretemps" (off-beat). The pianist
of tonight's band ( Jean Louis Muller) is the person who took the students
of Henri Chaix - the pride of Geneva - when he stopped taking new students.
Cheers,
Jacques

>
> "Bill Clark, longtime leader of the Queen City Jazz Band, has published a
> book titled Improvising Traditional Jazz. A portion of the proceeds from
> sale of the book will go to the Queen City Jazz Foundation. Bill describes
> his
> book below.
> I have been teaching young people to play traditional jazz for
> many years. My
> new book, Improvising Traditional Jazz, contains many the exercises and
> ideas
> that have proven helpful to my students. The book has four parts: The
> first discusses
> some specific musical ideas that were given to us by great musicians
> like Louis Armstrong
> and Bix Beiderbecke. Part Two turns those ideas into ten
> easy-to-learn exercises. Part
> Three features nine typical traditional jazz chord progressions with
> a CD that repeats
> the nine exercises at slow and at fast tempos so the student can practice.
> Part Four contains fourteen lead sheets and a second CD. Each of the
> lead sheets
> represents a typical traditional jazz chord progression. The CD has
> on it music from
> each of the lead sheets played by the Queen City Jazz Band.
> Improvising Traditional Jazz
> is not a substitute for diligent practice. It is an efficient way to
> organize your practice
> time. I wrote it for musicians who are professionals and want to get
> better. It is
> also written for less accomplished musicians who can read music, who
> understand chord
> symbols, and who want to learn how to sound good when playing a
> traditional jazz solo.
> The book is 38 pages, comes with 2 CD's, and costs $40.00 postpaid."

> I've heard (and greatly enjoyed) Bill play tuba with his band for
