Music Around Town ~ November 29 – December 5, 2010.
Allen Estes
Peter Van Ness
Allen’s first guest is the show’s co-producer, Peter Van Ness, co-founder gimmesound.com & Celebrate Gloucester.
The premiere show features three songs by Allen Estes, two of which do not appear on any CD. The original premiere, scheduled for December 1 at 6:30pm, was thwarted by a cape-wide blackout. You can see the premiere on Cape Ann TV Channel 12 on Friday, December 3rd at 1pm and Sunday, December 5th at 6pm. It will air again on Wednesday, December 8th at 6:30pm. Check schedule for more air times. After shows air, you will be able to see archives on this website.
Allen and his guests have fun with lively dialogue exploring creativity, songwriting and the music business.
Shows are taped before a live studio audience.
If you would like to be in the studio audience or you’d like to be Allen’s guest on a future show — or if you have an idea for a guest or questions to ask or topics to cover, please complete the form below and someone will get in touch with you.

Please tell everybody that they can carpool with each other if at all possible. It will be great to support our local musicians making it into Boston’s music scene.
It will also be Cynthia Sisco’s birthday and I hear she is going to celebrate.

Music Around Town ~ November 15 – 21, 2010
This seARTS benefit will showcase the diverse voice of the guitar as a performance instrument. Audiences will be delighted to hear the depth and range of American fingerstyle guitar, and connect to the narration and warmth of the performers. The diversity of the performances is inspiring, as Bonfield, Coryell, and Davison pick their way through music ranging from country blues, ragtime and folk, to traditional Celtic, jazz, and classical pieces. The show carries audience members on an auditory and educational tour of the guitar that is both inspiring for aficionados and guitarists and approachable for newcomers to finger style guitar. Larry Coryell is one of the world’s acknowledged guitar masters. He has recorded more than 75 albums over the past 40 years as a bandleader, soloist and ‘featured accompanist’. Hailed by his legion of fans as one of “the guitar gods” in the late 1970s and as a “truly Renaissance musician who excels at all styles of playing”, he has also been christened as “a true pioneer of rock-jazz fusion” by the New York Times, and dubbed “the Godfather of Fusion” by Dan Ouellette of Down Beat Magazine. Ken Bonfield has toured nationally since 1994, has released 5 solo albums and 2 duo albums with violinist Joe Ebel, Steve Davison released his national debut “White River Suite” in 2010. Together, Bonfield and Davison are touring with Artistry of the Guitar.
Program Notes
Coriolan Overture
Beethoven wrote this highly popular composition in 1807 to accompany Heinrich Joseph von Collin’s now obscure drama. The music depicts the story of Coriolanus, a banished Roman patrician who shamefully and tragically leads an army against Mother Rome. As one of Beethoven’s most performed and recorded works, the overture has far outpaced its literary counterpart in fame and acclaim.
Piano Concerto No. 2
It is fitting, perhaps, for young Kadar Qian to be performing Chopin’s F Minor Piano Concerto as it is the youthful work of a great pianist who was himself a prodigy. Chopin, born in Poland of French parents, began performing in public when he was 8 years old. Composed when he was 20, Piano Concerto No. 2 was actually Chopin’s first. It was labeled the second because it was the second to be published. The music itself is magically expressive and typical of Chopin.
Symphony No. 4 in A (Italian Symphony)
Mendelssohn spent the years 1829 -1831 touring Europe which provided the inspiration for his Scottish Symphony, The Hebrides, and of course the Italian Symphony. Writing from Rome to his equally musical sister Fanny about his work in progress, he said “It will be the jolliest piece I have ever done.” Indeed it is a sunny work and evocative of the magical spirit of Italy.

Hi Folks,
Ken Parker here, happy to announce that Kinloch Nelson will be
returning to the Rhumb Line this Tuesday evening, November 15th, for a
one hour set from 8 to 9pm.
Kinloch is an amazing guiatrist with a completely unique approach.
He’s full of surprises and lots of fun. No guitar player or fan of
guitar wizardry should miss this show!
Kinloch’s first appearance at the Rhumb Line started out with an
impromptu duo with host Bradley Royds, followed by a solo session that
set the house onfire.

Try going over the bridge. It really doesn’t hurt. Anyhow, I’m playing Friday nite at the Lyceum in Salem, once again with this really groovey jazz band called Jazzport. The room’s a terror! loud like airplane hanger, filled with amorphous divorcees of a certain age,ageing hipsters, and the slumming, overdressed youngsters looking for a mate. But the music’s great! Somebody help me!

Upcoming Events
This seARTS benefit will showcase the diverse voice of the guitar as a performance instrument. Audiences will be delighted to hear the depth and range of American fingerstyle guitar, and connect to the narration and warmth of the performers. The diversity of the performances is inspiring, as Bonfield, Coryell, and Davison pick their way through music ranging from country blues, ragtime and folk, to traditional Celtic, jazz, and classical pieces. The show carries audience members on an auditory and educational tour of the guitar that is both inspiring for aficionados and guitarists and approachable for newcomers to finger style guitar. Larry Coryell is one of the world’s acknowledged guitar masters. He has recorded more than 75 albums over the past 40 years as a bandleader, soloist and ‘featured accompanist’. Hailed by his legion of fans as one of “the guitar gods” in the late 1970s and as a “truly Renaissance musician who excels at all styles of playing”, he has also been christened as “a true pioneer of rock-jazz fusion” by the New York Times, and dubbed “the Godfather of Fusion” by Dan Ouellette of Down Beat Magazine. Ken Bonfield has toured nationally since 1994, has released 5 solo albums and 2 duo albums with violinist Joe Ebel, Steve Davison released his national debut “White River Suite” in 2010. Together, Bonfield and Davison are touring with Artistry of the Guitar.
Program Notes
Coriolan Overture
Beethoven wrote this highly popular composition in 1807 to accompany Heinrich Joseph von Collin’s now obscure drama. The music depicts the story of Coriolanus, a banished Roman patrician who shamefully and tragically leads an army against Mother Rome. As one of Beethoven’s most performed and recorded works, the overture has far outpaced its literary counterpart in fame and acclaim.
Piano Concerto No. 2
It is fitting, perhaps, for young Kadar Qian to be performing Chopin’s F Minor Piano Concerto as it is the youthful work of a great pianist who was himself a prodigy. Chopin, born in Poland of French parents, began performing in public when he was 8 years old. Composed when he was 20, Piano Concerto No. 2 was actually Chopin’s first. It was labeled the second because it was the second to be published. The music itself is magically expressive and typical of Chopin.
Symphony No. 4 in A (Italian Symphony)
Mendelssohn spent the years 1829 -1831 touring Europe which provided the inspiration for his Scottish Symphony, The Hebrides, and of course the Italian Symphony. Writing from Rome to his equally musical sister Fanny about his work in progress, he said “It will be the jolliest piece I have ever done.” Indeed it is a sunny work and evocative of the magical spirit of Italy.

They have played at a number of events and venues, including the Rockport HarvestFest, the reception to welcome the new Rockport Town Administrator, the Sandy Bay Yacht Club Lecture Series, Gloucester’s Battle of the Bands Fundraiser, the Rockport Rotary Club’s Tree-Lighting Dinner, Rockport PTO fundraisers, and a student-organized rally to support the recent town override. Their repertoire is an eclectic mix of jazz, blues, standards, and rock, and they bring a fresh perspective and youthful energy to each performance.

Alex Caffi – drums
Erik Lees – bass
Robin Lovell – keyboard

Thursday – 8:30 to 12:00 ~ Dave Sags Blues Party
These guys, these katz, are really sumphin’, a virtual spin-cycle of da blooz in it’s many configurations; I should know… I played with dese guys last Sunday, and I’m still lickin’ my wounded brainstem. Looks just like the Tingler, only wavin’ a white flag.
So, allow me to introduce Mr. Justin Quinn, Harmonicat, vogelizer, and frontman. Dives deep into the Well of Souls. Knows his stuff. He’s bringin’ some of my favorite guys with him. Like Per (pronounced “pear”) Hanson, drumblistipus octopi, and Jon Ross, on gritar. Both these guys have toured with James Cotton, Ronnie Earl, and Duke Robillard. They are scary good or “sick”, as Mark Earley says. He may even show up to see for hisself. Of course, Greg T. and his hat will be there, and me, too, hiding behind the yellow police tape. Cut off your toetag and make it down while you still can.

Dear Joey,
The celebrate Gloucester feature length film is done. You look great. You sound great. There’s a whole scene entitled “Good Afternoon Gloucester” featuring your inspiring speech on how lucky we are to live here! It includes your famous “kiss my ass” line (with response from an one of the performers) and is destined to become one of the classic movie scenes of all time.

This is a benefit for The Gloucester Fund and will feature the world premiere of Celebrate Gloucester, the Director’s Cut (not available on DVD), live performances by some of the stars, hors d’oeuvres complements of Lat 43, Alchemy and Jalapenos, wine & beer tasting.
Tickets are $20. You can get them at Cape Ann Community Cinema (21 Main St Upstairs) or on line at www.CelebrateGloucester.com. You can also get a special Release Party & DVD Package (on-line only) for $35.

——————————————————————————————————————————————————–
This seARTS benefit will showcase the diverse voice of the guitar as a performance instrument. Audiences will be delighted to hear the depth and range of American fingerstyle guitar, and connect to the narration and warmth of the performers. The diversity of the performances is inspiring, as Bonfield, Coryell, and Davison pick their way through music ranging from country blues, ragtime and folk, to traditional Celtic, jazz, and classical pieces. The show carries audience members on an auditory and educational tour of the guitar that is both inspiring for aficionados and guitarists and approachable for newcomers to finger style guitar. Larry Coryell is one of the world’s acknowledged guitar masters. He has recorded more than 75 albums over the past 40 years as a bandleader, soloist and ‘featured accompanist’. Hailed by his legion of fans as one of “the guitar gods” in the late 1970s and as a “truly Renaissance musician who excels at all styles of playing”, he has also been christened as “a true pioneer of rock-jazz fusion” by the New York Times, and dubbed “the Godfather of Fusion” by Dan Ouellette of Down Beat Magazine. Ken Bonfield has toured nationally since 1994, has released 5 solo albums and 2 duo albums with violinist Joe Ebel, Steve Davison released his national debut “White River Suite” in 2010. Together, Bonfield and Davison are touring with Artistry of the Guitar.
Program Notes
Coriolan Overture
Beethoven wrote this highly popular composition in 1807 to accompany Heinrich Joseph von Collin’s now obscure drama. The music depicts the story of Coriolanus, a banished Roman patrician who shamefully and tragically leads an army against Mother Rome. As one of Beethoven’s most performed and recorded works, the overture has far outpaced its literary counterpart in fame and acclaim.
Piano Concerto No. 2
It is fitting, perhaps, for young Kadar Qian to be performing Chopin’s F Minor Piano Concerto as it is the youthful work of a great pianist who was himself a prodigy. Chopin, born in Poland of French parents, began performing in public when he was 8 years old. Composed when he was 20, Piano Concerto No. 2 was actually Chopin’s first. It was labeled the second because it was the second to be published. The music itself is magically expressive and typical of Chopin.
Symphony No. 4 in A (Italian Symphony)
Mendelssohn spent the years 1829 -1831 touring Europe which provided the inspiration for his Scottish Symphony, The Hebrides, and of course the Italian Symphony. Writing from Rome to his equally musical sister Fanny about his work in progress, he said “It will be the jolliest piece I have ever done.” Indeed it is a sunny work and evocative of the magical spirit of Italy.
