Welcome Arts In Action

Whoever said ‘ May you live in interesting
times...’ ...well, thanks a lot. Here we are in
2019, watching momentous events unfold
across the world - politically, environmentally,
and socially, and ‘interesting’ is, ummm, one
way of looking at it. And people are getting
interested! The massive groundswell of public
engagement with the issue of climate change
is encouraging, and we’re going bald-headed
at minimising impact on our beautiful planet
at the same time as delivering a cracking
festival.
Nils Økland, Kaja Draksler and Eve Risser,
and the fabulous London Gay Big Band.
We’ll also put on our nature shoes and do
some serious planting in the grounds of St.
Nicholas' church, growing our audience for
next year, talking to the bats, and beeing
fabulous. We are thrilled to welcome you all
to Galway, for music, words, ideas, friendship,
food, and celebration of life in all its
magnificence. I hope you find it interesting!

FILM SCREENING/SCANNÁN
The Jazz Ambassadors tells the little-known story of when
America deployed jazz legends like Louis Armstrong, Duke
Ellington, Dizzy Gillespie, and Benny Goodman, along
with their mixed-race bands, to fight on the frontlines of
the Cold War.
Desperate to find a way of countering the USSR
propaganda about racism and inequality in the United
States, congressman Adam Clayton Powell Jr. convinced
President Eisenhower that jazz was the best way to fight
back in the cultural conflict. The flip side was that this US
government scheme inadvertently wound up giving the
€10.00 Civil Rights Movement a voice on the world stage when it
most needed one, while posing serious moral dilemmas for

welcome’. We are honoured to welcome him to GJF.

Andreas
The youngest ever headliner in the renowned Ronnie Scott’s Club,
13 year old Andreas blew everyone away with his virtuosity, his
highly creative improvisations, and, dammit, his sheer swingtastic
musicianship! That was back in 2011. Now, at the ripe old age
of 21, Andreas has consolidated his early promise, and gained
world wide attention and admiration, playing with the likes of
Lee Ritenour, Gregory Porter and Soweto Kinch, and has been
taken under the wing of the legendary Quincy Jones. With his
Hungarian gypsy heritage, his music is Django meets George
Benson meets Louis Stewart, and keeping it a family affair, he
is joined for his GJF debut by his father Bandi Varady on Bass,
and younger(!) brother Adrian on drums. (And by the way, serious
bragging rights to anyone who first saw Andreas busking on the
streets of Cork when he was still in short trousers).
“This wunderkind Andreas Varady plays much more in the vein
€16.50 of Wes or George Benson and, on top of that, is highly musical
and responsive.”
Jazzwise Magazine
“Varady, who looks much like any other early teenage boy in
jeans and Converse trainers, shoots off on a solo of astonishing
virtuosity and speed with the casual, distracted air that other boys
of his age have when they’re idling away afternoons on an Xbox.”
The Times

Blue Groove Trio
Improvisation is, or at least can be, a deeply resonant
FREE articulation of—and metaphor for—human expression.

opportunity to break free from something, or to journey

Flights
It’s tricky bringing international artists to Ireland and not have
them fly, and air travel is one of the biggest contributors to
GJF’s carbon footprint. We’re working on all sorts of ideas to try
and improve the situation, but for next year, would you consider
pledging to take one fewer flight to offset the flight of a visiting
musician? Mail us on GALWAYJAZZ@GMAIL.COM if the answer
is yes. The number of pledges will correspond to the number of
international artists we invite to GJF20!

Art of the
Tree-o
Join us on Sunday morning for something completely different.
Replace the polo neck and sunglasses with your best Sunday
gardening gear and gloves to celebrate the opening of Galway’s
very own Chapel of Jazz. We’ll be planting the good news about
insects, bees and pollination in a corner of St. Nicholas’ cemetery
with our queen bee, Ellen Cranitch, leading the ‘Galway Flower and
Tree Planting Celebration Jazz Band’ in a couple of musical odes to
get you buzzing...
We’re proud and honoured that the Vestry of St. Nicholas’ has
entrusted their memorial garden to us to replant with bee
and insect friendly plants. We’ll look after the garden and
the insect chapel throughout the year and hope it becomes a
true legacy of GJF19.
Pollinate or bee damned!

Emilie Conway
THE SMASHING RED KITE’S BLUES
A charming and highly entertaining show for children,
created and performed by Emilie Conway, with Damian
Evans (bass) and Johnny Taylor (piano). Based on the story
The Smashing Red Kite’s Blues, by GJF co-founder Ann-
Lorraine Mack, it tells the adventures of the red kite, as he
leaves the toy shop for a life outside, and all the harum-
scarum jiggery-pokery he encounters on the way. Originally
commissioned by The Ark as part of their Fun Size Jazz
€5.00 programme in 2018.

2.00PM DERMOT DUNNE
Always up for a challenge, Dermot will accordionize
this venue, (though he could easily drive the piano too )
with his electrifying technique, vast repertoire of Blues,
Braziliana and...emm, Bach. Virtuoso is too small a
word. Sit back and allow jaw to be dropped. .
4.00PM DARRAGH HENNESSY
Born at an early age, Darragh was well into his teens
when he moved to the dark side, mining the jazz
motherloads for gems of delight. A gifted teacher and
writer of tuneage, he tours regularly playing both piano
and hammond organ. This is his maiden GJF voyage.
6.00PM JOHNNY TAYLOR
Pinning down Johnny is like nailing jam to a wall, so
in demand is he. We’re delighted that he’s coming to
Galway, and playing this rare solo gig, bringing his
effortless coolth and sharing his Zen jellies with us.

Daniele Di Nils

€16.50 musical exploration, hardanger fiddle virtuoso Nils 0kland creates
An instrument most often heard in the brash and intense white heat
€16.50 of Argentinian tango, in the hands of Daniele Di Bonaventura the
bandoneon is balm, the silk rather than satin, the love poem, seducing
and beguiling. We are thrilled to welcome him and the ensemble
Band’Union to Ireland for the very first time. Their most recent album,
Garofani Rossi is a passionate and heartfelt collection of songs of
resistance and revolution, which started with one elegant but immensly
powerful arrangement of the Italian anti-fascist anthem Bella Ciao,
and given the gently rebellious nature of this year’s GJF, has proved a
timely and apposite addition to the line-up.
DANIELE DI BONAVENTURA: bandoneon
FELICE DEL GAUDIO: bass
MARCELLO PEGHIN: 10 String Guitar
ALFREDO LAVIANO: percussion
A musician who has never put limits on the scope of his own
soundscapes, stories, atmospheres, and with his fellow musicians on
saxophone, vibes, harmonium and bass throws a filigree net around
his audience, and draws them into his world of dark and light, texture,
clarity, and structure, and allows us to eavesdrop on this five way
conversation where all voices are equal contributors and creators. Like
a very select few contemporary masters, Nils has become his own genre,
and this is a rare chance to hear this quintet in a programme drawn
from their latest landmark album, Lysning.
“... there is not one note on this album out of place, not one moment
when we´re not confronted by a beautiful isolation that somehow
make sense of this world and which lingers long in the memory..
