SUMMARY:CodaFest at Café Coda
DESCRIPTION:The first-ever CodaFest is a five-night festival that impressively encompasses the sheer variety of jazz and improvised music Café Coda has showcased in Madison since opening in 2017. The top-line acts are two veteran\, boundary-pushing musicians who retain their fiery vitality today: saxophonist Roscoe Mitchell\, playing Wednesday night in a trio with bassist Jakob Heinemann and drummer Tim Russell\, and Marshall Allen\, leading the ongoing interstellar voyage of the Sun Ra Arkestra on Saturday night. Those highlights alone are a testament to the Willy Street venue’s ability to bring in great music\, and its deep commitment to the history and practice of jazz. \nCodaFest’s lineup also incorporates two jazz documentaries: Jazz In Exile (screening Thursday at 2 p.m. followed by a discussion with director Chuck France) details the careers of Black jazz musicians who left the United States to live and work in Europe\, and an episode from Ken Burns’ Jazz documentary\, titled A Masterpiece By Midnight (screening Friday at 2 p.m.)\, which surveys the splintering and development of jazz music from 1960 onward.  \nOther highlights throughout the fest include Chicago-based pianist/vocalist Alexis Lombre (Sunday at 3 p.m.); Coda owner Hanah Jon Taylor with bassist Reggie Workman\, drummer Dushun Mosley\, and pianist Luke Leavitt (Saturday\, 5 p.m.); and a duo set from guitarist Louka Patenaude and pianist Paul Hastil (Thursday\, noon). The festival has some free afternoon events and a range of prices for ticketed events (there’s also an all-access pass option for $275)\, so I’d recommend taking a thorough look at Coda’s events and tickets pages to plan ahead. \n—Scott Gordon \nthe Ritual and the Dance by Roscoe Mitchell & Mike Reed

SUMMARY:Sonata (2021) at Union South Marquee
DESCRIPTION:Grzegorz Płonka (Michal Sikorski) plays the piano in his father’s study. \nComing-of-age biopic Sonata (2021) closes out the Polish Film Festival at the Union South Marquee\, which begins on Sunday\, November 13\, with Illusion (2022)\, and then continues the following Sunday\, November 20\, with a triple feature of Fucking Bornholm (2022)\, Black Sheep (2022) and Sonata. \nBartosz Blaschke’s film is based on the true story of Grzegorz Płonka (Michal Sikorski)\, who is misdiagnosed with autism as a child in the mid-1990s\, only to discover at age 14 that he actually suffers from hearing loss that prevented him from processing the upper registers necessary to understand speech. When Grzegorz finally gets fitted with a hearing aid thanks to the insistence of a home caregiver\, he’s set upon a difficult road toward a meaningful life: learning to speak and read in his teens\, and obsessively devoting himself to becoming a concert pianist\, with his ultimate goal to perform Beethoven’s “Moonlight Sonata” (which lends the film its name).  \nThe film uses similar audio effects to Sound Of Metal (2020) in the scene where Grzegorz finally hears clearly for the first time\, allowing the audience to perceive as he does. Previously\, his relationship with music consisted of pounding on a piano to feel the vibrations. Sonata also shares Sound Of Metal‘s more nuanced take on a disability narrative rather than standing as a simple triumph-over-adversity tale: much emphasis is put on Grzegorz’s early life being left to languish due to sheer institutional indifference despite the efforts of his exasperated parents (Małgorzata Foremniak and Lukasz Simlat) to get someone to respond on a human level instead of just enforcing the rules and their own expectations. \nWhen Grzegorz finally speaks\, he often has a frustratingly black-and-white interpretation of social interactions\, and a megalomaniac focus on his life goal of becoming a pianist. At every turn\, he’s met by people who qualify his talent as “playing well for a deaf person.” Grzegorz doesn’t so much want to prove them all wrong as he gets stuck on not fully grasping why someone would want to keep him from fully expressing himself. Understandably\, he lashes out when clashing once again with the harshness of those more concerned with checking boxes than letting him release his pent-up emotions.  \n—Lewis Peterson
