1305 -
THE PLANET - Lucky Oceans (Doug Spencer on Mondays) with jazz, blues, folk styles, art music and more in a show artfully arranged for radio. [abc.net.au/rn/music/planet/] for playlists and further details. [T;%]
Mon.: One of the greatest living bluesman is a third generation Italian-American, “born in the Providence River Delta”. In 1966 Paul Geremia “abandoned all other means of support” & became a travelling bluesman. His voice is not big, but he really knows how to use it. He plays the harmonica upside down. Geremia knows the guitar inside out; a superb fingerpicking (& occasionally, slide-playing) 6 & 12-string acoustic guitarist, he avoids mere flash, & makes each note count. His “feel” – an acute sense of exactly how much weight to give each word or note - is constant, whether the song’s his own or a classic blues, humorous or dark. 2004 is unlikely to yield a finer acoustic-bluesman’s outing than his “Blues concerning Love, Murder & Mosquitos.”
What’s still the very best article about Paul Geremia was written 22 years ago. You’ll find it here: [www.fishheads.net/geremia/liocegeremia.html].
Tue.: Izaline Calister is billed as the ”wild, bare-footed diva” of Curacao. In fact, she is a sophisticated, flexible, conservatory-trained singer & composer. Like Curacao itself (one of the so-called “Dutch”, so-called “ABC” Islands in the southern Caribbean, just north of Venezuela), her music is cosmopolitan, nourished by African, European, jazz & specifically-Caribbean sources. Sung in Papiamento - a Creole language with Portugese, Spanish, Dutch, French, English & West African elements - “Krioyo” is a sometimes jubilant, sometimes yearning CD. Oft-erotic & playful, it's a largely acoustic set of original songs: rhythmic chants through to elegant ballads, via "tumba". Curacao’s emblematic groove, “tumba” has been called “a kind of salsa in a waltz-like 6/8”.
Wed.: Sameer Makhoul is an Arab oud player, singer and composer from Peki’in, a village in Galilee renowned for its poets. He graduated from the Jerusalem Academy of Music where he studied with Taiseer Elias, oud player for Arab/Jewish group Bustan Abraham (Children of Abraham). Sameer now teaches Jews and Arabs alike at Jerusalem’s Center for Classical and Oriental Music and Dance. Sameer’s new album, “Athar” (Footprints) likewise mixes Arabic and Jewish musicians.
Thu.: Danú is one of Ireland’s finest bands: a really “together” septet. They’re also very good “apart”! Their new CD “Up in the Air” is – as its subtitle says - a set of “Irish traditional music solos played by the members of Danú”. Some are quite solo, some see another member of the group accompany the featured singer or player of the uillean pipes, flute, guitar, accordion, fiddle or bouzouki. Even in this set of “solos” you can hear one of the elements that sets them apart from the ruck in traditionally-based Irish music: a keen arranging sense which renders their deft playing more musically potent.
Fri.: La Reunion, a wild island in the middle of the Indian Ocean, was not even settled until French and Madagascans settled it in the 16th century. Since then it has been a musical crossroads for French and African music, which is why Rene Lacaille moves smoothly from Parisian café sounds to the propulsive rhythms of East Africa. His new album, “Mapou” (A particularly delicious and edible kind of sugar cane), is the guitarist/vocalist/accordionist/songwriter/national musical icon’s varied look back over his 50 years as a musician.
