[Dixielandjazz] Jazz

[Marek Boym]

Unlike in prior years, this year the forthcoming 2014/15 "Hot Jazz" series
promises to be interesting.  While in previous years there was hardly any
HOT JAZZ in the series, and when it brought Evan Christopher, for example,
it paired him with unsympathetic musicians who didn't even know such
standards as "St. James Infirmary"  (the year after, with Swing de Gitanes,
he sounded MUCH better).
This year the Hungarian Gypsy violoinist and singer (and dancer, too, but
she does not appear here in that capacity) Katica Illenyi is shceduled to
open the sereis, with our own Swing de Gitanes.
The following link will bring you to a whoe series of videos, provided by
the organizers:

The other OKOM musicians to be featured are Lillian Boutte (with a
sypathetic band - I've checked), the Swiss boogie woogie wizard Silvan
Zinng and Bria Skornberg.
