[Dixielandjazz] Support live jazz

[Marek Boym]

Just back from the Chicago Stompers from Milan, Italy, show.
Tonight two friends - the trumpeter Eli Preminger and the trombonist Amnon
Ben'Artzi - and I went to hear the Chicago Stompers who are touring Israel
as part of the Hot Jazz series.   A very entertaining and hot sextet, with
lots of verve.  Perhaps the entertainment portion was a bit overdone.  But
they  all - Mauro L. Porro (trumpet, curved soprano, vcl), Lorenzo Baldasso
(clt, alt), Giorgio Gallina (tbn), Dario Lavizzari (bjo, gtr),  Paolo A.
Vanzulli (sousaphone) and Fabrizio  Carriero (dms) - are excellent
musicians.  And rather young.  They wore "period" uniforms (tuxedos and bow
ties), sported "period" hair style and looked great.
The programme was mostly standards (Panama, After You've Gone, Milenberg
Joys, etc)., but also the not overplayed "Ding Dong Daddy from Dumas,"
"Our Bungalow Dreams" (recorded by Bix; it must have been the first time
I've heard it live) and "The Hurricane" (dedicated to ex wives) of Red
Nichols fame.
Why was "Milenberg Joys" devoted to Leon Rappollo I don't know, but it's
nice to have that wonderful and short-lived lived artist mentioned.
The arrangements (by Mr. Porro) were very good, giving even warhorses a
fresh touch.
We had great time!
