SUMMARY:Evening With Nick Moran and Friends at Arts + Literature Laboratory
DESCRIPTION:Madison’s music community has the privilege of experiencing so very much of Nick Moran. The bassist’s work in the local jazz scene alone would be pretty tough to sum up—though the highlights include his role as the gregarious host of the New Breed Jazz Jam\, co-founding the brilliant Afro-Latin jazz outfit Golpe Tierra\, and his musical bridge-building trips to Cuba. But it’s not often that we get a night solely focused on his accomplished\, versatile playing. At this ALL show\, Moran will explore a whole spectrum of his musical interests and collaborations in a series of solo pieces\, duos\, and small groups. “The night will feature música criolla del Peru\, bossa nova\, straight ahead jazz and jazz standards\, reggae\, and hip hop\,” Moran tells Tone Madison. Featured players will include drummer Wayne Saltzman II\, vocalist Michelle Duval\, saxophonist/pianist Pawan Benjamin\, and his bandmates in the long-running hip-hop outfit dumate. Moran has worked tirelessly on stage and behind the scenes to bring us a lot of excellent music and make it more accessible to local audiences\, so it’s good to see him get a chance to be the center of attention.  \n—Scott Gordon

SUMMARY:To Space And Back: An Evening Of Piano Trios at Arts + Literature Laboratory
DESCRIPTION:A trio of headshots of the performing musicians—Shuguang Gong (piano)\, Sahada Buckley (violin)\, and Trace Johnson (cello). \nThis program of chamber works by composers Bedrich Smetana\, Fazil Say\, and Dmitri Shostakovich spans over 150 years—from the lavish romanticism of Smetana’s nearly 30-minute “Piano Trio In G Minor\, Op. 15\,” composed in 1855\, to the creeping dramatism of Say’s more contained “Space Jump\, Op. 46\,” which was first performed less than a decade ago. The evening concludes with Dmitri Shostakovich’s mid-twentieth-century work\, “Piano Trio No. 2 In E Minor.” \nSay’s modern piece\, which performing violinist Sahada Buckley rightfully calls “a total bop\,” swoons with a tense interplay of pizzicato and legato technique between her violin and Trace Johnson’s cello\, before Shuguang Gong’s stark and sticky piano melody sweeps up the strings in a dizzying rush from lower to higher register. If it sounds like the soundtrack to a high-stakes stunt on silent film\, it sort of is\, tributing Felix Baumgartner’s legendary jump from a helium balloon in Earth’s stratosphere as he picks up speed. \nThe three movements of Smetana’s “Piano Trio” actually well-complement Say’s acrobatic work; while they may momentarily offer a brighter sonic palette that evokes the lithe dance of nostalgia\, the piece as a whole is predominantly consumed by a melancholic motif reflective of Smetana’s loss of his eldest daughter. In its finale\, the range of the piano particularly shines as the strings drift atop its piquant pianissimo and full-on forte. \nAfter an intermission\, the trio will conclude with the 25-minute suite of Shostakovich’s “Piano Trio\,” which expresses the same amalgamation of elation and grief in Smetana’s composition. Shostakovich channels these emotions most vividly into the dramatic arc of the final movement\, rife with alluring polarity and a seismic dynamic range. \nReference the event page for a substantial idea about the performers\, but it doesn’t quite compare to hearing the virtuosic potential of Buckley and Johnson\, whose electroacoustic duo Vōchē recently improvised one of the most compelling sets I’ve seen this year\, at Communication. With the dexterous Gong joining Buckley and Johnson for this performance\, “To Space And Back” promises to articulate the reciprocal and interconnected musical journey. \nBuckley\, Johnson\, and Gong are also performing this same piano trio program in Hamel Music Center (Collins Hall) on UW-Madison campus on Monday December 12\, at 7:30 p.m. \n—Grant Phipps

SUMMARY:New Music Series: Johannes Wallmann Trio at Arts + Literature Laboratory
DESCRIPTION:Pianist and composer Johannes Wallmann\, chair of UW-Madison’s jazz program\, continued to build on his already-strong discography earlier this year with the release of Precarious Towers on the Shifting Paradigm label. Wallmann has been restlessly exploring different configurations over the years\, and this time he pulls together a quintet that helps him tie the roots of jazz to a range of playful and dissonant tendencies. At this show\, part of a free Sunday series organized by saxophonist Anders Svanoe\, Wallmann will be joined by percussionist Mitch Shiner and trumpeter Russ Johnson. Shiner (who himself chairs a jazz program\, at the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music in Milwaukee) plays vibraphone on Precarious Towers\, and makes a particularly memorable contribution lending color and conflicted texture to the slinky\, blues-y “Never Pet A Burning Dog.” Johnson has also recorded with Wallmann before\, including on the 2015 album The Town Musicians\, and he’s an adventurous composer/bandleader in his own right\, as you can hear on standout albums like 2014’s Meeting Point and 2018’s Headlands. \n—Scott Gordon \nPrecarious Towers by Johannes Wallman
